The panties

.

Dave POV

"Make use of the door, please". I instructed her and she huffed angrily walking out.

I don't need any girl to come seduce me at my place of work. I fired my last personal assistant because of that and I don't need any more like her.

I rested on the upholstery chair sighing as I remembered this morning's event. That girl is definitely crazy, its not like I splashed the water intentionally on her.

And she seems beautiful but a whole lot of crazy coupled with it. Anyone who dates her has problems on their hands, i'm sure her boyfriend wouldn't have the guts to talk back at her.

"Allison. Send in the next applicant". I said via the intercom.

The door opened almost immediately and I heard the lady gasp which made me look up at her but I couldn't see her face.

"Good morning, Sir". She bowed slightly and her hair covered her face partly.

"Good morning to you, Miss. You may have your seat".

She sat in front of me but why was she hell bent in avoiding my gaze? I still couldn't see her face properly which made me sigh.

She finally looked at me and I paused then remembered the events of this morning.

I smirked a little. "If it isn't Miss crazy".

"Hey!! You can't call me that".

"Well I can if you want this job".

She huffed angrily. "I'm not crazy".

"But you acted like you were this morning".

"You splashed water on me and didn't even apologize at that".

"I was going to until you went all crazy on me".

"Still a moron". She muttered under her breath but I still heard it.

I cleared my throat. "Miss, can I have your résumé please?".

She handed me in form of files and I took it glancing at it before flipping through the contents.

"You graduated first class from Harvard?". I asked her surprised.

"Not to brag but I beat my way to the top".

"No kidding about the beatings". I mutter still flipping through the documents.

Then after a while, i dropped the files back on the table glancing at her. She looks little nervous so it wouldn't hurt to joke around.

"I want to hire you but how am I sure that you won't beat up my potential clients?".

She pouted cutely. "Sir, I promise to not do that at all".

"Hmm. I'm not so sure, i mean, you are really good at displaying sudden things".

"Sir please .. ". She clasped her hands together. "What happened in the morning was a mistake and I won't repeat that though it wasn't my fault".

I had the urge to laugh right now but I can't in front of her, who knows if she might beat me up?

"So it was my fault?".

She fixed her gaze on the table. "Maybe".

"Miss Beth, you need to let go of things and not solve problems with your temper".

"Sir please, forget all what transpired, hire me like you wanted". She pleaded as a tear slid down her cheeks.

What?!!. Is she about to cry right now? I was just joking, her credentials are good so she has the job, i was just pulling her legs.

"Hey Miss. Stop it".

I stood up and walked over to where she sat reaching down to wipe her tears with my thumb.

For a minute there, I was tempted to take her lips in mine as i stroked her cheeks with my thumb.

Get a hold of yourself, David. She is your future employee and you are the employer.

I went back to my chair. "Miss, you are very well qualified for this job and I'll get back to you tomorrow".

"Really? You are being serious right now?". She asked her eyes lightening up.

"I am and you should stop the tears. Its not meant for beauties like you".

She smiled a little and looked down at the table, a red shade forming on her cheeks. I made Miss Crazy blush, its an achievement for me.

"So am I forgiven for what happened this morning?".

I pretended to think about it. "I forgive you but on one condition".

"What is it, Sir?". She asked.

"You promise to not beat any of my clients up even if they are annoying".

She laughed slightly making me stare at her, she should do that more often. Its nice.

"I promise, Sir".

"And do me a favor, call me David".

She glanced up at me. "But Sir .. ".

"You have to call me David if you are going to be my personal assistant, Beth. We are going to work together, isn't that so?".

"Okay if you say so, David".

"Then I'll give you a call to inform you about your position, Miss Bethany".

She stood up. "Okay Sir, i mean, David".

I gave her a light smile and she made to go but stopped facing me.

"Whatever happened this morning was your fault but I'm just going to let it slide".

I chuckled lightly as she said that then walk out of my office. I do have a feeling that I'm going to like working with Miss Crazy.

Jessica pov

I gasped as he brought out purple panties swinging it around on his fingers.

"Dustin, put that down". I hissed. "What are you doing?".

He smirked. "Now can I have some alone time with you?".

"I'm at work, hide that before anyone sees it". I told him nervously looking around.

"So what do you say, Jessica?".

I sigh softly. "David, as you can see, I'm at work and my boss wouldn't like it if I leave, i might get fired, you know".

"Oh yeah. I didn't think about that, i guess there's a problem".

"Now will you please put that down?". I pleaded with him.

He smirked shoving it back into his pockets making me gasp. What have I gotten into now? Couldn't I have had a one nightstand with someone sensible?

"Where are you going, Dustin?". I asked as he stood up.

"To see your boss, pretty. I'm serious when I said that we need to hang out".

"But I'm working, maybe some other time".

"I will be busy some other time, Jessica".

I sighed. "Okay, fine. Go talk to my boss but don't you get me fired at any cost?".

"Relax, Jessica. I won't get you into any trouble". He say and walked off to the main counter.

I crossed my arms and went over to stand with Nathalie while I watch Dustin converse with my boss.

I noticed that my own boss was acting all humble in front of Dustin but why? What is going on that I don't know?

Nathalie squealed excitedly beside me. "He's so handsome, Jessi. You are lucky".

"Huh?".

"Do you know how many ladies are dying for his attention".

"What are you talking about?".

"Cut the act, Jessica. He's Dustin Jacob".

"I know his name but is he famous?".

She let out a scoff. "He is the wealthiest in New York city and wins awards every time considering his hot looks".

I glanced at Dustin. He's famous? But how come I don't know? Maybe its because I rarely pay attention to things like that.

"So Jessi". He walked over to me. "Your boss agreed, can we go now?".

I flashed him a False smile. "Sure?".

He smirked and patted his pockets before taking my hand leading me out of the damn restaurant.

I looked sideways at him. Does he knows that he's holding my hand right now?

"So where are we going?". I asked him as we got to his Porsche in the parking lot.

He unlocked the cars. "Somewhere private because I need to talk to you".

I got in and sat next to him in the car then he drove off. I sighed facing the window, i am so tired, why do I feel sleepy anyways?

"So do you need to eat anything or lets go to an eatery?".

I crossed my arms. "Just so you know,Dustin Jacob This is not a date".

"I never mentioned a date".

"Good". I faced the window. "I listen to what you have to say and we leave".

He sped off along places as I stared at them, I have never cruised around before, its either I've not got the time or maybe I'm too lazy.

"And we are here".

I notice that he has stopped the car by a very large building making me wonder why.

"Wait". I stopped. "Don't I get a hint on what you want to talk to me about?".

"Its about Lily".

"Your daughter? Whats wrong?".

"Well she keeps asking__".

"I'm not giving her a baby sister if that is what you want to ask".

He chuckled lightly. "No, not that at all".

"Thank goodness". I say breathing out a sigh of relief.

"You think I want another child? Hell no, not happening".

I rolled my eyes. "So what is it you want to talk to me about?".

"Lily misses you and I was thinking if you would like to come over at my place and_".

"I'm not sleeping with you again". I cut him off.

He tapped his forehead. "Gosh!! Jessica, let the man speak".

"You may continue". I said amusedly.

"Will you like to come over by the weekend for some dinner or maybe stake out? Just so Lily can stop with her nagging".

"On one condition".

"Which is?". He arched his eyebrows.

I stretched out my palm. "The panties".

"I don't know, Jessica". He smirked. "They seem pretty soft for keeps, you know".

I frowned as he said that. Oh what have I gotten myself into? This makes me wish Beth was here to beat him up.
