Chad dreaded the trip to work the next morning. He still could not figure out what to do about Syd. Chad felt an obligation to keep the job. It was excellent pay, especially for a young producer like himself. Chad also felt that he may need to prepare for the possibility of Whitney being pregnant. Then, he'd want to find a home for his family if Whitney ended up pregnant. He didn't expect to stay at Fox's apartment forever. Besides, Chad felt that Fox would not stay in L.A. permanently. That was unless, Chad concluded, Fox succeeded in winning the heart of the woman he loved. Chad trudged slowly to his office, finding himself counting the steps it took to reach his destination. Chad greeted the secretary who cheerfully informed him that he had an important message on his desk. Chad thanked the secretary and walked into his office.
Upon reaching the desk, Chad picked up the pink slip that read:
Chad, Syd called me today. She won't be coming into work, but I would like to speak with you as soon as possible. Please call me back once you receive this message. Thanks.
~Vivian
"Yes!" Chad said in relief. Syd won't be at work today. Chad began whistling a tune to one of the newest songs he was producing for another singer. He decided to get a cup of coffee. When he returned, he set the coffee on his desk when the secretary buzzed in. "Mr. Harris, you're needed out here immediately."
Chad went outside, as someone sneaked quietly into his office. Syd had managed to avoid Chad and went over to his desk. She spotted the cup of coffee and spiked his drink with a generous amount of vodka. "This will help me out a little." She said softly as she stirred the drink. She left his office before he could return.
Chad came back to his office, unaware that an unwanted person had visited him. He took a gulp of his coffee and coughed. "Anita," Chad called to the secretary as he went back outside. "Do you know who made coffee this morning?"
"I did." Anita said looking up from her computer. "Do you like it?" She asked smiling.
"Yeah." Chad lied. He took another gulp in front of her. Anita smiled even more. "I'm glad." She said. "I'm using a new brand. Everyone else seems to like it too."
"I see." Chad said. "It's great." Chad made a face as he poured the rest of the coffee in a potted plant on the side of the room. Is it just my taste buds? How could anyone else here like this brand? It doesn't taste much like coffee. Chad began to feel a bit different. He tried shaking it off when Syd walked into the room.
"Syd, what are you doing here?" Chad said in a mixture of surprise and disbelief. "Vivian told me that you weren't coming in today."
"I came to see you." Syd said seductively. Chad didn't take the bait. He remained silent and kept his distance.
"Oh c'mon, Chad." Syd said as she slowly inched towards him. "I couldn't bear to go a day without seeing you. Besides, I wanted to know if you thought about my offer."
"I thought about it." Chad admitted, his words appearing a bit slurred. Syd smiled knowing the spiked coffee was taking effect.
"Really?" Syd said pleased. "What would your decision be?"
"Syd, let's talk about this later. I have to call Vivian." Chad reached over to pick up his phone.
Syd laid a hand over Chad's and looked straight at him with desire evident in her eyes. "Vivian can wait. I'm your priority remember?"
"As a producer, yes." Chad said as he walked around to the other side of the desk. "In my personal life, it's~" Chad paused as if he had lost his train of thought. "It's Whitney who's my number one lady."
Syd frowned. "That's not the answer I wanted, Chad."
"What kind of answer were you looking for?" Chad said, trying to appear unaware of the implications Syd was giving. He swayed a bit and caught himself on the filing cabinet against the wall.
"Don't play dumb with me, Chad." Syd said. "You're a smart man, and you know exactly what I want." Hunger flashed in her eyes and pervaded her thoughts.
"Syd, no." Chad said simply. "This can't happen. Our relationship is strictly professional."
"It doesn't have to be." Syd said determined not to back down. She sat on his desk and crossed her legs, giving Chad a glimpse of her thighs. "I know you want me, Chad." She said softly. "It's written all over your face."
Chad tried to avoid her gaze. He found himself staring at the bare part of her leg and looked away guiltily. Syd laughed and walked up behind him. She placed her hands on his chest and pressed her body against his. Chad tensed at her touch. Syd's hands then began traveling downwards. Something burned within Chad, and he pulled away quickly. He tried to shake off the feeling and looked down and groaned. An evident bulge protruded from his pants.
"You see Chad?" Syd said as her gaze traveled on Chad's body. "You can't resist me."
"Ssstop it Syd." Chad said, the slur becoming more defined.
"No." Syd said as she forced herself into his arms and pressed her body against his again. She swayed her hips as she made the bulge grow even more. Syd laughed again. "Let's let that big boy come out and play." Chad desperately tried to resist the temptation, but as the excitement grew, his body response wouldn't permit him to act rationally. Instead he stood there dazed as Syd began to unbutton his pants.
This is wrong. Chad said to himself, but his body would not cooperate with his mind. Instead parts of him pulsated with desire. Syd accomplished her task and proceeded to remove the only barrier left. As Syd looked up, Chad saw Whitney's face.
"Whitney." He said softly, the drunkenness already taking over him.
Syd played along. "Yes, it's me, Whitney."
"What are you doing here?" He asked swaying a little.
Syd steadied him as she pulled the rest of his briefs down. Chad stood there exposed as a smile formed on Syd's lips.
"I want you, Chad." Syd said still impersonating Whitney.
"Mm, Whitney." Chad said groaning.
Syd pushed Chad slightly back so that he sat on his desk. "Lay down baby." She whispered. Chad obeyed drunkenly as Syd went to lock the door. She took off her clothes and moved on top of Chad.
"Whitney." Chad called again.
"I want you, Chad." Syd whispered.
"Okay." Chad replied, his eyes half closed.
Syd moved on top of him and took of his remaining clothes. She gasped as Chad filled her. Syd moved slowly but steadily. She wanted to go slowly to savor every moment. Syd let out a cry of delight.
The secretary outside was startled by the noise. She listened and heard the screams again coming from Chad's office. With her brow furrowed in curiosity, she called him on the intercom. When he didn't answer she decided to knock oh the door. Even then, she received no response. As she returned to her desk, Whitney arrived with a smile on her face.
"Hello," Whitney said. "I'm Chad's fiancé. I need to speak with him. It's urgent." Whitney wrung her hands excitedly. I can't wait to tell Chad the news.
"All right." Anita said. "I'll go get him." Anita knocked on Chad's office door again and heard the cries again. Disturbed, Anita stopped one of the janitors and asked for a key. The janitor gladly handed over the set of keys as Anita unlocked the door quickly. She gasped at the sight before her.
Syd moved more quickly as Chad's hands slip up and down her back. Syd let out a cry of relief and satisfaction. "Finally." Syd sighed. Spent, she lay on top of Chad. Anita covered her mouth as Whitney came up behind her. "Oh my god," Whitney said. "Oh my god." She repeated.
Chad sat up as the effects of the alcohol began to wear off. He began to feel tension building on the base of his neck. He rubbed his temples and saw a devastated Whitney before him. Tears poured from her eyes as she repeatedly asked him "Why Chad? Why?"
Chad realized he was naked and glanced over at Syd. Syd didn't even bother covering herself up. Instead she sat there still on top of him. Chad pushed her off. He covered himself up quickly as he began to apologize profusely. "Whitney, it's not what it looks like baby. I didn't know what I was doing. I thought she was you. I'm so sorry, baby. I'm sorry."
"Save it." Whitney said through clenched teeth. "I don't want to hear it. I can't believe you would do such a thing. You bastard! I came to tell you that I was pregnant and I find you with another woman in your office?! What the hell is wrong with you? I knew I shouldn't have let you continue to work here with that bitch!" Whitney walked over to Syd and pushed her to the ground. "Ow!" Syd said as she hit the floor.
"Stop Whitney!" Chad said as he ran to take a hold of Whitney. Whitney surprised him by slapping him in the face and punching him in the gut. "Don't you touch me!" She hissed. Chad doubled over in pain.
Whitney ran out of the office. Chad did not follow her. He knew she was furious. Chad looked over at Syd disgustedly. "You took advantage of me." He accused. "You vile bitch!"
"Hey, you wanted me, Chad." Syd shrugged. "You could've stopped it, but you didn't. You kept going."
"I thought you were Whitney."
"Oh that's rich." Syd said as she rolled her eyes. "Admit it Chad. You knew it was me the whole time. Stop using the excuse that you thought I was Whitney."
Chad quickly got dressed as his phone rang. He glanced at Anita who was still staring dumfounded. "Answer it!" Chad ordered.
Anita snapped out of her daze and answered the phone. "It's Vivian." She mouthed. "Not a word of what happened her, Anita." Chad warned. "You understand?"
Anita nodded. "Vivian," Chad said trying to appear cheerful. Syd began to dress.
"Chad, I thought you would've gotten my message by now."
"Oh, yeah~" Chad's voice trailed off.
"Well, Chad, I was just calling to tell you that I've got you and Syd attending this big gala event that will be held in a month. All the famous music producers and their clients will be there. You'll be Syd's escort. Now, I have some extra tickets to the event in case any one of you wants to invite anyone else." Vivian paused as she spoke to someone in her office. "Chad, hon, I've got to take care of other business. I just wanted to inform you about the event. Talk to you later."
Vivian hung up before Chad could say a word.
"What'd she want?" Syd asked.
Chad sighed. "Ask her yourself." He said coldly as he left the room.
