The Office
J.J.: Wow. This is my fifth story so far…well for Gravitation anyway.
Yuki: Do I really give a damn?
Shuichi: Well 'The Office' is a little different than the ones you used to write.
J.J.: Yeah. I don't plan on doing anymore lemon scenes.
Littlekely: Be more specific J.J. Not every person reading this knows Fanfic language.
J.J.: Alright. Lemon=Sex. Lime=Almost sex but not there yet.
Littlekely: Vague but okay.
Yuki: …
Shuichi: How are going to work this out now?
J.J.: I'm not sure. This may just be a one-shot. Maybe not. I don't like writing one-shots but I have no ideas. I'm bored. My mom won't let me go to the library. I may change my mind about the lemon stuff though. I'm famous for it. I'm still bored though.
Littlekely: Poor baby. Want to start the chapter now?
J.J.: Yes! Let's go!
Shuichi: J.J. doesn't own Gravitation.
Yuki: What? No mergers this time?
J.J.: Nope! I made this up myself!
Hiro: She is so proud of herself.
Littlekely: You have no idea.
"Pace myself. Pace myself. You can do this Shuichi! You can do it!" Shuichi whispered to himself. No I can't. I heard the boss is sadistic and a sexy version of Satan. (A/N: I rebuke his name in the name of Jesus!) Shuichi stood at his desk staring at his diploma. I even had to go to school to work for this bastard!
"Hey. Are you the new guy?" A man said at the door of Shuichi's office.
"Yeah." Shuichi said. I'm nervous to even speak.
"My name's Taki Aizawa. Nice to meet you." He said. Shuichi smiled.
"N-Nice to meet you too." Shuichi said. Taki laughed.
"You need to strengthen your exterior if you want to survive in Mr. Yuki's office. He is the most important CEO in Japan right now." Taki said. You're not helping my anxiety. Shuichi looked at his clock. 10:43.
"Is he always this late?" Shuichi asked. Taki chuckled.
"To his words, 'I'm never late. I come at exactly the time I arrive.' That's like saying cereal is eaten with milk not 2% milk." Taki said. Shuichi giggled.
"When does he usually arrive?" Shuichi asked. Taki shrugged.
"I don't know. It usually depends on his mood. Once he came in before everyone else. It was quiet the shocker. That aside, you need to be on your toes. He fired his last secretary for just being late." Taki said. Shuichi swallowed deeply.
"How late?" Shuichi asked.
"Five minutes I think. Or was it three?" Taki asked himself. Shuichi turned blue. I'm going to get fired aren't I? The office door jingled and Shuichi's blood turned into ice. Is that Yuki? Instead of seeing a scary guy, he saw a familiar guy with flowing red hair.
"Hiroshi!" Shuichi exclaimed.
"What's up Shuichi?" Hiro said hugging his best friend. "I can't believe you took this job." Hiro said. Shuichi punched Hiro in the shoulder.
"Not all of us got the job we wanted and now are the head of their own medical practice. Show off." Shuichi said. Hiro laughed.
"Yeah well, I still support your decision. I don't know how long you'll last though." Hiro said. Shuichi pouted.
"According to Aizawa, my boss is an asshole." Shuichi said.
"Ouch. You'll control yourself though, yeah?" Hiro asked. Shuichi nodded.
"You need to go before my boss comes. He'll probably fire me if he sees you." Shuichi said pushing Hiro through the door.
"No he wouldn't." Hiro said.
"Yes he would." Shuichi said.
"Yes I would." A voice said. Shuichi froze. The voice was behind me. Oh my god. Why does my misfortune come down on me now?
"S-Sir?" Shuichi asked. He turned around and faced a beautiful and sexy blonde man in a business suit and was wearing glasses.Shuichi couldn't help but blush.
"Get out of my way" Yuki commanded. Shuichi jumped and quickly moved out of the way. Yuki moved past him and walked into his office and slammed the door. Shuichi slumped to the floor.
"Don't worry. He does that to all of his new secretaries." Taki said. Shuichi sighed.
"I'll be lucky if I have a job by the end of the day." Shuichi said.
"At least introduce yourself to him." Taki said.
"Why? So he can slice me up and make guaca-shu?" Shuichi asked. I don't even like guacamole.
"You never know until you try." Taki said.
"I get the feeling you are enjoying this." Shuichi said. Taki smiled.
"Yep!" Taki said. Shuichi took in a deep breath and walked over to his bosses' door. He swallowed and then knocked on the door. He waited…and waited…and waited. Answer the door already dammit! Shuichi waited even more until he couldn't take it. Shuichi opened the door and was met with a pair of glaring golden eyes. Shuichi jumped. Maybe opening the door myself was a bad move.
"What do you want?" Yuki asked. Shuichi felt a shiver go up his spine. Shuichi swallowed.
"Um…I just wanted to introduce myself to you." Shuichi said. Yuki only intensified his glare. Shuichi's sweat dropped. "My name is Shuichi Shindou and I'm your personal secretary. I hope to be able to assist you in any way I can." Shuichi said. Yuki didn't say anything and this made Shuichi nervous. I hope he doesn't fire me.
"Are you done?" Yuki asked. Shuichi looked at Yuki.
"Huh?"
"Get out. I didn't ask you for your name. When I need you, I call you. That's it. Those are your only rules. Now, for the last time…get out." Yuki said. Shuichi was speechless. Shuichi walked out of the room and walked into his office; which was across the room from Yuki's. The second he sat in the chair, everything processed.
"THAT BASTARD!" Shuichi yelled. "How dare he say that to me?! I'm being respectful and I get this?! I hope he chokes on his coffee, dumb ass!" Shuichi yelled.
******
Yuki stared at the door as he listened to what Shuichi yelled about. Damn brat. The walls are not sound proof so I can hear you, idiot. Yuki began to write a report. Shuichi Shindou huh…
******
Shuichi sat in his chair with his head on the table. Shuichi moaned. I'm so bored. I'm going to fall asleep if I don't do anything soon. When's lunch? Shuichi looked at the clock and it read 11:20. Yuki hasn't called me for anything. What to do? Just then the phone rang. Shuichi jumped and answered it.
"Hello? Uesugi Industries."
"Yuki? Thank god you're here. After last night you never called so I was wondering what you were doing." A voice said. It sounds like a girl.
"I'm sorry, but Yuki is busy at the moment. May I take a message?" Shuichi asked.
"Who is this?" the woman asked. Shuichi's sweat dropped.
"His secretary." Shuichi answered.
"I want to speak to Yuki now! Oh well. Could you just tell him Maiko called. My number is 55-0874-7. Thank you!" The line went dead. Shuichi wrote down the information and looked at the clock. Yuki must receive his messages at 12:00 and nothing afterwards. Whatever comes later will be given the next day. Shouldn't be so hard. The phone rang again.
"Hello? Uesugi Industries." Shuichi said.
"Hello, I must speak with Mr. Yuki please." A voice said.
"May ask who this is?" Shuichi asked.
"This is Yousuke Sakanoue. I'm calling him to confirm about tomorrow's meeting." Yousuke said.
"Please hold." Shuichi said.
"Thank you." Shuichi pressed Yuki's intercom and waited. Come on! Pick up the phone!
"Hello?" Yuki's voice asked. Shuichi blushed from the sound of Yuki's voice in his ear.
"U-Um…Mr. Yousuke Sakanoue is on line 4. He wants to talk to you about tomorrow's meeting." Shuichi said.
"Fine." Yuki said and the line went dead. Shuichi's anger rose. That's it? No 'thank you' or anything? Mean bastard. The phone rung for the third time. I'm about to start hating phones now. Shuichi looked at the phone and it was coming from Yuki's office. Shuichi heart began to race.
"Yes sir?" Shuichi asked.
"Come to my office." Yuki said then the line went dead. Shuichi hung up the phone and walked over to Yuki's office. Shuichi opened the door and stood in front of Yuki's desk.
"Yes sir?" Shuichi asked. Yuki glared at Shuichi and Shuichi flinched.
"I want these files sorted and filed to their appropriate sections. I want these mailed off the operating companies. And I want these stapled and put into everyone's mailbox." Yuki said pushing a stack of paper in front of Shuichi. Shuichi's sweat dropped. "I also want this done before lunch." Yuki said. Shuichi swallowed. He picked up the pile and walked out of the door muttering a "Yes sir" at Yuki. Finally managing to open the door to his office, he dropped the pile of papers on his desk and looked at the clock. 11:32. Dammit! Lunch is in an hour. Fuck! Shuichi began to staple and file.
10 Minutes Later
Shuichi smiled as he put the last letter into the mailbox. Good thing I work fast! Shuichi walked back into his room and saw that four lines were blinking. He quickly answered line 5.
"Hello? Uesugi Industries." Shuichi said.
"Hello, may I speak to Yuki please?" A voice said.
"May I ask who this is?" Shuichi asked.
"Yuuki Tsumura. I need to speak with Yuki. He forgot his coat at my place." She explained. Shuichi's sweat dropped. How many girls does this man have?
"I'm sorry he's busy. Can I take a message?" Shuichi asked.
"Sure. Tell him to come and get his coat and to stop by sometime." Yuuki said. Shuichi's sweat dropped. Pervert. "Goodbye." Then the line went dead. Shuichi pressed line 7.
"Hello? Uesugi Industries." Shuichi said.
"I need to speak with Eiri." A voice said. Whoa! No one uses his first name like that!
"May I ask who is speaking?" Shuichi asked.
"Are you new? Oh that's right, he fired his last employee. Look, you better get used to hearing me call. My name's Mika Seguchi. I'm Eiri's older sister. Put him on the line." She ordered. Shuichi flinched away from the phone. Is this family naturally cold?
"Please hold." Shuichi said.
"Thank you." Mika said. Shuichi pressed Yuki's intercom.
"What?" Yuki asked. Shuichi's vein popped.
"Your sister is on line 7." Shuichi said in a pissed off voice.
"Tell her I'm not here." Yuki commanded.
"But-" The line went dead. Shuichi sighed. He pressed line 7.
"I'm sorry. Yuki is really busy right now." Shuichi lied. He gave me all his work.
"Don't give me that bullshit! Put him on the goddamn phone! Now!" Mika yelled. Shuichi sighed. Oh well. It's a sibling's quarrel.
"Please hold." Shuichi said. Shuichi pressed Yuki's intercom a second time.
"What the fuck do you want?" Yuki asked in an icy tone. Shuichi's vein popped again.
"Look. I can't get your sister to calm down. Just talk to her." Shuichi said.
"Don't tell me what to do. Don't answer the phone then." Yuki said.
"She'll call again." Shuichi complained.
"Then make her go away!" Yuki yelled. That did it.
"Talk to your own goddamn sister!" Shuichi yelled and hung up the phone. Shuichi was panting until he realized what he just did. Oh shit. I did it. I yelled at my boss. Oh man. I'm fired. I'm fired. Why does god not like me? Finally, line 7 stopped blinking. Yuki took the call?! No way! Two lines were still blinking. Might as well. I just hope they're his fans. "Hello? Uesugi Industries." Shuichi said.
"Hello can I speak with Shuichi?" A voice asked. Me?
"This is Shuichi. Who is this?" Shuichi asked.
"Oh good. I was afraid I called the wrong number. It's your number one doctor calling!" the voice said.
"Hiro! What are you doing? I can't take private calls on my work phone! I can get in trouble by-"
"Your boss." Yuki finished. Shuichi froze. Yuki walked over and hung up the phone. Yuki stood only inches away from Shuichi. Shuichi could feel his face burn up. "Who the hell do you think you are?" Yuki asked. Shuichi could feel the sweat run down his back. Shuichi swallowed. "I hope you know what's in store for you." Yuki said. Shuichi turned blue. That's it. I'll pack my things and be out of your hair before you even get back from lunch…just don't hurt me!
"I'm so-"
"I want you to accompany me to my meeting tomorrow." Yuki said. Shuichi just stood there apologizing until he heard what Yuki had said.
"Wha? You want me to accompany you sir?" Shuichi asked.
"Yes." Yuki said.
"But why?" Shuichi asked.
"I want you to understand why you are here and what your job is since reading about it clearly didn't help. You need to know your place." Yuki said. Shuichi swallowed. "I want to see you in my office by 8 o' clock tomorrow. Late and your fired." Yuki said and walked out of the door. Shuichi stood awestruck. While Shuichi was in his stupor; line 3 kept blinking.
J.J.: How was it?
Shuichi: I thought I was going to get fired!
J.J.: So did I…for a second anyway.
Littlekely: …
J.J.: What?
Littlekely: Nothing.
Yuki: …
J.J.: What?!
Yuki: I'm disgusted.
J.J.: Why? What did I do?
Yuki: I would never answer the phone for Mika even if Shuichi did yell at me.
Littlekely: You must really not like your sister.
Shuichi: It's not so much of 'liking' it's…well…
Yuki: I don't like her presence.
J.J.: How about Shuichi.
Yuki: Shuichi's a different story.
J.J. and Shuichi: How so?
Yuki: I just can't stand Shuichi.
Littlekely: …
J.J.: …
Shuichi: -tears in his eye-
Yuki: -lights a cigarette-
J.J.: -looks at Littlekely-
Littlekely: -looks at J.J.-
J.J. and Littlekely: -nods at each other- What about Tohma?
Yuki: -coughs on his cigarette-
Hiro: How do you cough on a cigarette?
K: It adds to the effect.
Yuki: -sweat drops- …
J.J.: Well?
Shuichi: Yeah I want to know too!
Yuki: …
K: I don't think he wants to tell us.
Fuji: I wonder why.
Hiro: Maybe he had an affair with Tohma?
Yuki: -punches Hiro- ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MIND!
Shuichi: …
J.J.: You should be happy now Shuichi. Yuki loves you dearly.
Yuki: I never said that!
Littlekely: He said it in his sleep.
Yuki: STOP MAKING UP BULLSHIT THAT AIN'T TRUE!
J.J.: I think Yuki's angry.
K: Review and return later. Peace!
J.J.: See ya soon! Oh yeah! People reading 'Angel's Of Mine', um…the epilogue is coming later this week so you're going to have to wait. Sorry.
