I smoothed out the hem of my black dress, slipping on the same pair of stilettos I wear everyday.

"So you're just going to ignore what happened with Vinnie yesterday?" My roommate, Amelia, said as she poked her head into my room.

"Boss, not Vinnie. There's nothing to tell. It was one kiss." I muttered, not wanting to talk about it.

Truth is, it was more than just a kiss. It was so overpowering, so laced with lust it was a bit unbeliever that it even happened.

Amelia chuckled. "Whatever you say, but make sure to tell Jonah."

I looked down on the floor, completely forgetting that Jonah ever even existed in my life. I hadn't thought about him in weeks, not since our big fight.

Jonah is my current boyfriend, soon to be ex. It's been weeks since we had spoken. He was a child, and started a fight over me not wanting to move in with him.

Personally, I didn't think it was that big a deal. We had only been dating for a little over two months, and moving in most certainly wasn't on my agenda.

"We haven't spoken in weeks, Mel. I don't think were even together." I responded, grabbing my purse and fur coat.

"He sent flowers here last night. If you think you two are done, I think you need to make that a little more clear." She said seriously.

I knew she was right. But I didn't know if I was ready to consult him on anything, especially after the way he treated me.

"I know, I will. I have to get to work, don't want to be late!" I yelled, running out of the door.

I stood in the break room, waiting for my coffee to be made. I tapped my foot viciously, nervous for my encounter with boss.

"Spill, bitch." I heard as Sebastian entered the room.

I chuckled. "There's nothing to tell. Boss wanted to speak to me about Marty's Cigar and Co."

"That's utter bullshit, and you know it." Sebastian said before walking out.

I rolled my eyes, annoyed with the fact that everyone was interested in my business. I grabbed my cup of coffee and walked back to my desk, just in time for boss to arrive.

He looked at me and nodded before heading into his office. I couldn't help but feel an uneasy tension. Did he... regret it?

I quickly shrugged it off, knowing damn well Sebastian would be staring at me. And, everyone else as well. I shifted my focus to the computer, beginning my daily tasks.

This was the first time in a long time that I had no motivation to do work- my mind was clouded and I couldn't think of anything else but Vinnie.

There was no way he would regret it, he would've stopped it as soon as things got... heated.

"So, heard you had a fun ride last night." Jordan said, leaning on the side of my desk.

I rolled my eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about, Jordan."

He gave me a look of doubt, but I quickly shut it down.

"I don't know you get off thinking you can ask about other people's business, but it's pathetic. So fuck off." I said, raising my voice, grabbing attention from the others.

Jordan looked at me, giving me a glance of disapproval.

Yelling in the office wasn't allowed, and I knew I had just broken a major rule. To be truthful, I didn't care. I was tired of having my personal life broadcasted.

"Can't wait to see you get fired after this one. Should've known better than to get cozy with the boss, slut." Jordan said, chuckling.

I looked down, wiping away a single tear that fell from my eye.

"A deep voice said. I turned my head, my eyes widening at boss standing at the edge of his office door.

His jaw was clenched, and his fists were balled up. Anybody could tell he was mad.

Jordan gulped, leaning off the desk. He ran his hand through his hair, tripping over his own words like a fool.

"I-" Jordan began.

"No. Pack your things and get the fuck out of here." Boss said, stepping closer to him. His biceps were bulging through his shirt, and his face was a hot red.

Jordan sped walk to his desk, taking his jacket and phone, then began to walk out of the office with a walk of shame.

I sat and my desk with my head down. I wasn't sure how else to act, especially when boss was watching me... all of us.

The worst part of this is that he thinks I told everyone about our rendezvous, when in reality I haven't told a single soul. It would probably never happen again after this.

"Ms. Rayne, please see me in my office now." Boss said, holding the door open for me. I nodded, walking into his office and sitting down in the black leather chair.

We both sat there in silence. My heart was beating quicker than ever before, and my heads were becoming clammy.

"I thought we agreed to not tell anyone, Luna." Boss said, staring daggers at me.

I rolled my eyes. "Boss, I didn't tell anyone. They all assumed."

"Don't roll your eyes at me."

I crossed my arms, fixing my hair. "With all due respect, boss, I'll do what I want."

Boss got up, coming over to my chair, leaning over it so our faces were only inches apart.

"You work for me."

I took my hand and placed it on his chest, pushing him away from me and towards his desk.

Standing up, I pressed our chests together, entwining my legs in his. My hand remained on his chest, his breathing intensified. I bit my lip, quickly swiping them with my tongue.

I leaned my face dangerously close to his, our lips lightly skimming one another's.

"Vinnie, I wouldn't dare to tell a soul." I whispered, biting his lip slightly. His jaw clenched, his hand moved to my waist.

"What makes you think you can control me?" He said hungrily.

I giggled. "Because you're the one craving it, not me." I said, lightly kissing his lips, then walking away.

I opened the doors that led to the main office. Before leaving I turned around, looking at Vinnie who stood in the exact place I left him, staring hungrily at me.

Letting the doors close, I sat down at my desk, feeling everyone's eyes on me yet again. Finally, I began focusing on my computer, typing away at today's tasks.

"You shouldn't play fire with fire, Luna." Amelia said as she took out our Chinese take out food from the bag.

I rolled my eyes. "I wasn't. Just showing him who's boss, I guess."

"What are you getting out of this? Have you even spoken to Jonah?"

"No, okay. I haven't spoken to Jonah. I don't plan on doing so, Mel."

Everything that happened between Jonah and I was in the past, and I plan to focus on my future only. There's no point in dwelling on the shit he did to me.

"And you're not in any way scared that Vinnie will fuck you over?" She said, raising a brow.

I chuckled. "I don't even know what Vinnie and I are. We hooked up once."

"That doesn't mean shit and you know it, Luna. You get feelings for every guy you kiss." She said.

"That is so not true-"

"Clark, Matt, Jack, James, Jonah-" She began before I cut her off.

"Alright alright! You've proved your point. I'll make sure Vinnie and I will actually be something before I continue whatever it is we have." I said, clearing the air.

I took a bite out of my lomain, my stomach satisfied by it immediately. I couldn't stomach food all day, not after what happened at the office.

I couldn't help but still feel a pit in my stomach. I never expected to, almost, sleep with my boss.

There's just something about him that's so... . It's something I've never felt for anyone else, despite Amelia naming so many guys.

"Mel, I'll be right back. I just gotta... I don't know, think." I said, putting my plate down and walking into my room, falling onto my bed.

My mind felt foggy, like I couldn't think about anything else but Jonah and Vinnie.

I knew I had to talk to Jonah at some point, especially since he's been trying hard to get me back. The only thing he hasn't done, is actually speak to me.

Vinnie on the other hand, just feels addicting. Every time I'm around him, I feel like I need his touch. Like I need his arms wrapped around my waist.

"God fucking dammit." I muttered, slapping my pillow against my head.

Suddenly, I heard a knock at the door. "Leave me alone, Mel!" I yelled, wanting to isolate myself in any way possible.

"First, I'm not Mel. Second, don't tell me what to do." I stared into the darkness of the pillow, knowing exactly whose voice that was. I sat up, staring at the figure in front of me in complete shock.

"Jonah?"
