Cami's POV
Beep. Beep. Beep.
Rang the clock early in the morning. I woke up as switched off the clock so it could be stop ringing. I raised up from my bed and headed to my bathroom right next to my bed. I had to woke up early for some meetings.
My boss, Mister Salvatore always reunite his employees at the end of the month to see who actually worked and who didn't, he'd look at the statistic and say who's saying and who's fired. Generally, he would have already replaced the person. Anyway he wouldn't fire me, I know this because I'm his assistant I am the one who plans his meetings and I do other stuff too like take his coffee or his food.
I undressed and got in the shower then start to take my shower. 5 minutes later, I dried myself and started brushing my teeth while picked up today's outfit. I finished brushing my teeth then I got dressed. Then I headed to my living room and took my bag and purse.
I went out of my apartment locking the door, I walked down the corridor and meet my neighbor she was standing in her front door waiting for her dog walker to take her bulldog.
"Hello Mrs O'connell." she greeted me.
"Good morning Adele, already waiting for Cathy?" I asked her as I stopped in front her.
"my husband used to say this is better to be at a meeting sooner than arrive late!" as she talked she had a sad smile as she spoke about her dead husband.
"talking about meetings, I have to go! It was nice to see you Adele have a nice day." I told her as I continued walking towards the elevator.
Once it was there I headed up in it and waited as it came down to the garage. I walked up to my car and got in it. I drove off to my office building and parked. When I headed towards the meeting room, my friend Lydia was already there, she was the other assistant. I sat down next to her. As we waited for the meeting to start we talked about Lydia's date night.
"so tell me how was it? Is this girl what you expected?" I asked to my friend. "Well," Lydia started off, she was openly lesbian and assumed it. "she was nice and charming, but she talked a lot about her family. I mean she's proud of it but too much I think."
"Did you two hook up?" I asked laughing at Lydia's expression, she was smirked which was totally the answer to my question. "You know how I am, we did. And I have to admit it was good s-" she hadn't got the time to answer as Mr. Salvatore walked in.
"Good morning everyone, I hope every of you had a good week. Now let's see what we did this month."
An hour later of talking and seeing statistics, he finally spilled out that one of our colleague might have been fired. "As you may see, your colleague Mark isn't here today. He hadn't been fired but he chose to change of factory, he went to make his own start up. I want to be perfectly clear with all of you, he decided to go he hadn't been fired;"
And then he told us to go working. I barely had the time to sit down that he called me. I nodded and came in the office. "You wanted to see me sir?" I asked.
"Yes," he said. "close the door please;"I did as he said and walked up to his desk.
"Miss O'connell, as you might know we've got a new place and we will have a new employee coming this afternoon, he came from London. So I would want for you to help him, show him and tell him how this factory is working. But I also want you to show him the city so he can create his own marks in this town."
I was confused. "You want me to do this? But I'm only an assistant isn't it supposed to be a higher graded employee who should?"
"Usually yes, but you are the only one who advanced herself in her work. So I chose yo to do this job, oh and of course you will be payed for this."
"Payed to visit town? Like a guide tour?" I asked ironically which made my boss laugh. "Somewhat, that's it."
"Well I accept sir, that should be interesting."
Lunch time
Lydia and I decided to go to the restaurant, we hadn't been there for a very long time. "I'm totally starving!" blurred out Lydia as she sat down.
Physically she was almost like me, not very tall, blond haired almost red with blue eyes. We ordered what we wished to eat and waited for food.
"Anyway, about last night this girl was the greatest I ever been with and god knows I have been with a lot of women."
I laughed. "god definitely knows!' I joked.
She started to stare at me. "what?"
I turned to see if it was actually me she was staring at me and she was.
Then Lydia shook her head. "nothing I was just wondering when was the last time you had a date and I actually can't remember."
I rolled my eyes. "Funny. My last date was three months ago with that guy Alex and that was enough really."
"come on Cami! Why don't you come with me tonight? I planned on going to some club and party!" Lydia said looking straight into my eyes. "Lydia we work tomorrow I don't want to be tired all day."
"Oh please Cami, when did you get so much serious? Back then you didn't care about job you just wanted to party and go out. Don't tell me you've changed and you're grown because you did not really changed and grew."
I rolled my eyes and looked at her. "Lydia, I don't need to have a man to find somewhat release. I don't need this kind of relation to be happy. I'm independent and a free woman."
The other blond girl looked at me. "You're afraid! Am I wrong? That Mikaelson boy traumatized you."
"Lydia it was 4 years ago!"
Afternoon.
Around 3pm Mr Salvatore told me to get into his office, again. I headed up there. "Yes sir?"
He turned towards me. "Ah! Cami, your new colleague is here." I saw a man standing next to him, he faced the window. The man turned around to me and my boss. Suddenly my eyes connected with his and I recognized those beautiful blue eyes. "Hello, Cami." he said in his British accent.
I didn't talk for a moment, I was shocked. I couldn't believe it was him. I saw him. My boss interrupted the silence. "Cami you shall start by showing him he city."
I shook my head. "Yes sure." I said and walked back to my desk taking my purse and jacket. Lydia noticed the shocked face I had.
"Cami are you okay?" She asked me. I turned towards her. "Our new colleague is here. He will work here and I have to help him with everything. That new man is that Mikaelson boy."
