BPOV
Today is my first day of my new job. I'm nervous but quite enthralled because the company that hired me is quite reputable. Cullen Advertising, took me by surprise when they called me for a probationary trial period of three months. I entered the buildings lobby and dashed off to the restroom to do any final touchups. I had my mousy brown hair twirled in a elegant bun. My brown eyes were framed by my lashes which I touched lightly with black mascara. I was a little flushed from my sprint to the restroom, but all in all my skin was still quite pale, but not peakid just translucent... my skin never was a fan of the sunlight.
Happy with my assessment, I straightted my pencil skirt, adjusted my tucked in flowy blue blouse which dipped just enough to hint my cleavage, yet remained classy. I took a deep breath, and clicked my heels to the lift. Darn Alice, I thought, she insisted that even if I wasn't hired as a secretary, I should show off my legs. I shook that thought, I needed to concentrate lest trip. I pressed the button to go up in the lobby, and waited for the elevator.
DING
As the elevator doors opened, I noticed there were already two men inside, the one nearest to the doors was good looking, muscled yet lean with blond hair and seablue eyes. Strange I thought, never seen such an eye color before. When I stole a glance of the man behind him, my breath hitched. He was beautiful, with dazzling emerald eyes,which sparkled like jewels. His glowing white skin had a striking contrast to his bronze hair which was burning with sex appeal. My heartbeat quickened slightly. I was curious as to wonder why? I stole another quick glance and when I did I noticed his hands were gripping the handrail within the lift, and he was watching me from the corner of his eyes. His angled sharp nose and chiseled jaw took my breath away. Such flawlessness in a face, his lips were so luscious. Stop it Bella.
"Which floor?" The blonde haired man snapped me out of my daze. I blush immediatly returning my gaze to the floor "Um..thirty-six please."
The man pushed the button, and the lift doors closed. I noticed that no other button was pushed so I'm assuming we were all going to the same floor. The atmosphere became heaty, not with temperature but with anticipation. I found that my beautiful green eyed god was as still as stone. As we finally reached our floor and the doors opened I found myself releasing a breath that I never knew I was holding. Just as I was about to step out I tripped over the toe of my heel, and awaited the imminent thud of my body hitting the floor. Then when it never came I felt a pair of strong arms instead guiding me back to an upright position. A soothing scent of vanilla and open-air sunshine enveloped me and I opened my eyes and blushed while stepping carefully out of the beautiful man's embrace. "I'm so sorry, thank you." Oh my god how embarrassing. He probably thinks I'm a silly office bimbo.
"Please, no thanks necessary, you should be more careful, and yet I find myself anticipating your next fall so that I can be the one to catch you." The voice of this god of a man was soft like velvet yet rich like chocolate so smooth and husky with low undertones of sex and sophistication, it caused my heart to skip, my eyes to flutter, and my stomach to flit with butterflies. What is wrong with me and my reactions to this man.
"Till next time Miss?"
"Swan. Bella Swan, and thank you again Mr.?"
"Cullen, Edward Cullen." He chuckled as he repeated my James bond type introduction. I simply blushed in response eager to away and release some emotional tension. He simply looked back and flashed a dazzling crooked smile at me before disappearing down the corridor after the blond man. Then it hit me. Cullen! As in Cullen Advertising. Well damn! Shoot! He was way out of my league. I sighed with disappointment as I approached the front desk.
