Chapter 23: Caring

When I woke up, my stomach growled. Upon hearing it, he chuckled. "Do you want lunch?" He asked. I nodded. "What time is it in the first place?" He looked at his cellphone. "2:15pm." I gasped. "Oh wow. It's late" He chuckled. "No shit." I gave him a playful glare and slapped his chest. He chuckled and shuffled to stand up.

'I must say being Lucas's PA or girlfriend is not that easy. Lately I've been feeling this weird feeling as if I'm attracted to him, but I can't help myself sometimes though. When he wears those tight black shirts that defines his muscular body I just melt, or when he's exhausted his voice gets all low and husky. Just thinking about him sends shivers down my spine.'

When he stood up, he faced me and stretched. Oh God. I gulped and his 6 pack muscular body. I wanted to run my fingers along it right now. I bite my fingers gently as I continue to stare at him. He chuckled and clicked his fingers. "A picture lasts longer." I made a sour face. "In your dreams, Lucas."

"Oh!!! I like it..." He winked. I rolled my eyes and stood up, slightly losing my balance but regaining it quickly. I looked at him and he was looking at my chest. My breasts were kind of slipping out of the dress and my bra made it look bigger. I snapped my fingers at him. "Eyes up here." I said, pointing at my face.

He blushed and walked out of the door. Did he just really blush? I must admit, it was cute on him. I followed him out of the door as soon as I got my heels on. The only thing I could hear in the hallway was my shoes clicking against the marbled floor towards the elevator. The Chinese restaurant which occupied the whole of 30th floor was one of the most luxurious landmark of this hotel. Of course, it huge chandelier was beautiful and the view was amazing.

Back at City A. Its had been a week, a week since we've been together. A week since we have had no drama or any encounters with Marcus. A week that was such a blessing. Lucas and I are great. He is such a gentleman! He would always open the car door, the entrance and exit doors for me, would also pull out my chair for me and do anything that concerned me. He was such a caring sweetheart! I am very lucky to have him.

Today was a brand new day. I looked at myself on the mirror and smiled. My blonde hair was neatly tied up in a ponytail. My grey blazer and pencil skirt in tact. My white blouse neatly tucked under my skirt. Today was my first day as his PA come girlfriend at his company. I am very grateful for this part-timer position. I'm still given this opportunity though I'm still college student. Overall, I am very grateful to have Lucas.

Word gets around very quick, especially if your colleagues are Sandra and Gwen. Unlike the usual days, the people in the office now are eyeing on my every move with the boss. Lucas isn't stupid. He knows exactly what's going on in his business and people who are lazy, hardworking, cunning and want a promotion at the same time.

"Welcome back, Ruby." Sandra and Gwen greeted me. I grinned. "Thank you, ladies. Its feel great to be back. I missed you both." I entered my office and start my first day of work after being away for a week. After 2 hours of paper works and hectic follow-up, it was finally 11 o'clock. My phone buzzed. "Come in now." Lucas instructed.

I knocked a few times on his door and walked in without permission. He was busy reading over some notes. "Did I tell you to... " He looked up. "Hey." I smiled. "I'm sorry, Lucas. It won't happen again."

He shook his head and smiled. "How's work?" He asked. "Okay." I smiled.

He cleared his throat. "Since you're my PA and girlfriend at the same time... I was hoping that you could choose one..." I burst out laughing. "Okay, seriously Lucas, what do you...?" He just stared at me. Oh crap, was he serious? "You're not joking." I stated rather than asking.

"Since you're my girlfriend." My stomach flipped. "I want to make sure that you don't over-worked." I shook my head. "I won't over-worked. I love my job and working for you." He smiled. "Are you sure?" I thought about it. Hang on, what happens here? Why the workload now? Wait, did that even make sense? I shook my head, puzzled.

Lucas stood up and walked over to me. He held my hands and stood me up. He placed his hands on my waist and started to move his fingers. I squirmed a bit. "That won't happen. Today onwards, I arranged the lightest job for you." He smirked. I gasped. "No! You couldn't!" He grinned devilishly. "Oh! How do you know I wouldn't."
