"Hey boss, whose your friend?" a passing mechanic in the Cameron's jumpsuit asked.
Emma kept closely behind Sean as he led her around his shop, "Get lost, Franky." Sean said so calmly.
Emma smiled quietly, tucking her hair behind her ear. They stopped at the 'front' desk, which was more in the middle of the garage.
There were papers everywhere, Sean sheepishly grinned a bit while he caught her looking around the desk with a big blink and quick glance toward him. Was he going to clean that up?
"Manny is our front desk girl." Sean told her.
"Ah," Emma said playfully nodding. "She's very.." she noticed one paper slip off the desk and fly slowly to the ground, landing by their feet, "Organized."
Sean had to laugh, though ego a bit hit. Yea. He needed to talk to Manny about that one. "I'd do it myself but I'm so busy with my own paperwork. It's not like I can yell at her, she's Manny. Plus, I need Jay." he joked.
"Boss." another worker called by a blue pick up truck. Emma cringed when loud noises like screw drivers were heard.
Sean looked over his shoulder to look at who called him.
"Your girl friend called." the guy noted before noticing Emma, and smirked with a wink before getting back to work.
Sean clenched his jaw. He slowly turned back to Emma who raised an eyebrow. Girlfriend, huh?
"Ex." Sean insists, and lifted his hand to itch the back of his neck. He tried to remain cool. "We're going through.." he drifted off, as his gaze on her did too. "Shit."
Emma snickered knowingly, "Well, if you wanted to talk about it, I'm really good with the subject right now."
"I'm sure this break up wasn't as big or meaningful as yours, I mean," his gaze turned a little hard as he remembered, "You were engaged to the guy." he looked down, leaning back on the front desk behind them.
He blinked, remembering that's actually why him and Ellie broke up. He didn't want to get engaged. "..Which was actually the problem with me and El-"
Sean stopped there. For some reason, he didn't want Emma to know that his ex was Ellie. She'd think it was more serious than it actually was. Ellie had plans that Sean just didn't want with her.
"El-Elsa." he corrected. Jesus, he had to stop watching Frozen when it was on repeat on his tv.
"Elsa?" Emma had to repeat. He swallowed. "That's a pretty name." she shrugged, and then leaned back on the desk beside him, taking in the garages surrounding again. Sean had really done a good job. She was proud of him.
Sean felt her shoulder brush his, and he looked down, glancing at it. He then eyed her, without her noticing, and he softened as he saw the way her hair just smoothly fell around her shoulders. Her skin, so soft and tanned; golden.
"Show me around more," Emma said, turning her head to look at him also with one of her real big smiles.
He smirked and nodded, guiding her around. The two had caught up and by an hour or two later, Sean ordered pizza.
"Double cheese?"
Emma turned from trying to organize those papers on the front desk, into folders. "Huh?"
Sean was peaking out of his office with his phone attached to his ear. "Double cheese pizza?" he repeated. Took the delivery guy to come in an hour so they should be hungry by then. It was already 6.
Emma's shoulders dropped, but her heart raced. Double cheese, He remembered. HOW could she say no?
"Sure." she smiled softly.
He grinned with those famous dimples of his and shut his office door to order in peace and quiet. His workers could be so fucking loud with all the drills and hammering.
When he walked out, he slowed down his pace towards Emma. "Jesus."
Emma blushed, but smiled and laid the last folder in a pile on the desk. Everything even cleaned up and dusted with the furnish spray on the end of the table.
He had to chuckle, and blinked while feeling quiet impressed and rather greatful. Manny would of never done that.
He then eyed her, and squinted his eyes. "Are you working here yet? You're staying right?"
Emma softly laughed, mostly at herself, as she rolled her eyes and sat back on a chair. "I don't know anymore." she admitted, "I feel wierd staying with Jay and Manny. My parents moved to Alberta with Jack, so I can't go there. I don't even have a job to get my own place." she mumbled.
"Work here." Shit . Do I sound desperate? What the hell is wrong with me?
"What?" Emma had to hear it again.
Sean took a deep breath and shrugged. What the hell. "Work here, at front desk." he looked around it, still amazed she cleaned it up so fast and organized it. I mean, he wasn't TOO shocked, she'd always been organized and smart like that, but his shop never had someone like her in it
It'd be perfect.
She leaned back in the chair, smirking to the idea of it. She crossed her arms, then legs and teased, "What would you pay me?"
Sean was staring for a moment before snapping out of it. Did she have to wear low cut shirts and skirts like she did? And those heels? Fuck. He just wanted to take those smooth legs of hers and spread them- "UH." he loudly said out loud, shutting his eyes and rubbed the bridge of his nose.
Emma tilted her head curiously, waiting.
Sean cursed himself. If he could barely stop drooling, he was sure his boys here would treat Emma like a piece of meat. Then again, she could always handle herself. Sean knew she could.
"16 bucks an hour?" he asked, cringing a bit. He knew it was probably not like her pay in New York. "Free fix ups on your car?" he tried to fit in, grinning a bit.
Emma thought about it. It was nothing like the thousands she made just for modeling for a magazine cover...but, she was for some reason sold on it. Hmm, Sean's front desk girl at his car garage.
"Deal." she said, putting her hand out and he smirked before taking it. She yelped a little when he picked her back up on her feet, like she wieghed nothing and she stared back into his eyes.
"Hm," he huskily teased, just an inch away from her lips. "Emma Nelson, working for me."
Emma lost her breath. Her heart rate was getting faster, and faster, oh my god, too fast! He needed to take a step back.
Her hazel eyes locked up on his baby blues and his smirked widened.
She swallowed and tried to resort back, "Desperate time calls for desperate measures." with that, she walked around him, letting his hand go and she hid her own smirk.
Take that, Cameron!
Sean stood there, blown away. HeY! That was offensive!
An hour had gone by, and the double cheese pizza had arrived. It took Emma a few minutes, and for Sean to already be on his second one, before she picked one up and slowly ate it.
She couldn't believe she was doing it.
Now, before they knew it, it was already 9pm and his workers had gone home. They sat alone with another in the closed garage, on a back seat couch that was pulled out from a convertible and set against a wall. It was leather, and Emma leaned back on it comfortably, her legs crossed, heels off. Sean leaned back on it too, sipping a beer bottle he had in his office mini fridge.
"Damn." he noticed the time, glancing up at the clock over the tool bar.
"I should get going." Emma blushed. What was this pull Sean Cameron always had on her?
He watched her get up with his mouth parted a bit open; wishing he could think of something to make her stay.
Fuck. This was the reason wasn't it? He wanted her to stay because he wanted her . He still felt things for her. He never stopped..
"Wait, one more thing." he said and she turned, shocked.
Wasn't getting annoyed with her?
He smiled and pointed with his beer as he got up, "Come see my office."
"You're way too proud." giggled Emma, following after him towards the door that read 'Sean Cameron'.
He turned the light on, turning to her with a grin. "Well, who thought I'd end up here?" he stood in his very well done and designed bachelor looking office. He had his own couch, and tv mounted to the wall. He must work late hours cause the couch had a blanket on it, and he had a fridge and microwave in here too. Emma walked around his own desk that had piles of papers on the one side, a phone on the other, and-
"I did." Emma admitted. She always knew he was going to either own his own business, or be the star of someone elses. She never felt so good for him before. Good for him.
Sean was walking over to her, moving his office chair in the meantime. He got lost looking at her, and snapped out of it when she caught him. "Yea, you did." his voice deepened, his eyes serious and taking her in. She was beautiful.
"Um," she scratched her arm, leaning back on his desk as he unknowingly trapped her against it. She gazed up at him under her eyelashes, "I should go." she whispered. Her heart was pounding.
Sean blinked, and looked down, noticing the bare space between them. He wanted to kiss her so bad right there, grab her against him and kiss her senseless but he knew better.
...she probably wasn't over that ex fiancé of hers.
He stepped back and coughed lightly, "Yea, let me drive you." he dug into his pocket for his keys until Emma shook her head, walking away from him.
Why did he suddenly feel so empty?
"No it's okay." she insisted, and stopped at his office door, sending him a playful smile that she had to of known just made her look slightly naughty, and overly seductive. "See you on Monday, boss."
His pants tightened.
She walked out.
"Fuck." he breathed out deeply, shakily
(((**)))
Emma couldn't stop smiling, dipping her tea bag into her green tea the next morning. Her hair was done already and make up on, wearing a tight but respectable Lauren Conrads designer dress that was white and strapless. A nice summer dress for May 1st. Which was today.
Manny had come in with a towel around her body as she gave Emma a knowing look and smile, "Someone's got that Sean Cameron lovebug glow again." she went over to the sink, twisting her long hair to empty water out of it.
Emma looked up, and her smile faded. "No I don't." she lied. "I'm just..happy. I found a job!" she forgot to mention what.
"With Camerons garage." came another taunting and knowing voice. Jay. He was in a towel too and Emma shook her head in disgust, shutting her eyes.
This was the last thing she wanted to see! Jay naked.
"Okay, that's it!" she stood up from the table, "Where's your newspaper? I need to look for a new place."
Manny and Jay laughed, watching Emma walk off and Jay pulled Manny into his arms, kissing her deeply and when she returned the kiss between her giggles, his hand slightly ran up the space in her towel.
"JAY!" Manny exclaimed, pulling away and smacked his bare chest. "We have guests!"
He rolled his eyes, "Who already knows we went at it in the shower, and are about to again." he raised an eyebrow but scoffed when she walked off.
((**)))
"Morning boss," joked Jay in greetment to Sean when he walked in. "Rough night?"
Sean had barely slept again, someone was intruding his dreams. He rubbed his eyes and looked up from the car he was working on and blinked. "What?"
Jay grinned and shook his head, walking to the empty front desk and wondering what his jobs were today.
Emma wasn't starting until tomorrow. Jay couldn't wait to see how flustered Sean would be then. "Uh oh." Jay then said, looking up to see who was walking into the auto shop.
Ellie. And today, oddly, she swore bright colors. A yellow sundress, her red hair burning and green eyes popped out. "Hey." she softly greeted Sean.
Sean squinted his eyes at her. He was that tired. "El.." he drifted off, walking over and Jay stood awkwardly in between. What was she doing here?
"I was thinking," Ellie said, before narrowing her eyes at Jay to leave. She wanted to talk to Sean alone.
Jay just smirked and leaned back in entertainment.
"Go." Sean said, warningly. He wasn't in the mood. Jay rolled his eyes but went. Sean crossed his arms and turned back to Ellie.
"Are we...together?" Ellie had to ask.
Sean's mouth opened, and he was wordless. He didn't think they were, but they were still having sex since she came back from after vanishing when he admitted to her he didn't want to get married. But the past few days, she'd been giving him space.
"I don't know." he admitted, furrowing his thick shaped eyebrows.
"I think the space we are giving another is a good idea." Ellie confirms, "Maybe we need more of it. It gives me time to think about everything, and gives you the time to miss me." she teased.
He smiled sadly, and awkwardly itched the back of his neck, "Ellie I don't-"
"A month."
He blinked and turned his head, confused, "A month?" he repeated.
"I'll give you a month to tell me if you want to get married or not."
He was speechless.
She added, "We don't have to get married or anything right away Sean, I just need you to tell me your ready. I need you to be committed before I waste any more time in the relationship, so I'll keep my distance, and you think about it."
"Oh...kay." Sean needed a nap. The past week had been too much. This, and even being almost raped by ex highschool fling Amy, and then Emma Nelson's sudden appearance back in town. It was all too much.
Ellie leaned in, and kissed him deeply. He kissed back lightly, still confused and she pulled away.
Jay had looked back over, over hearing everything from where he stood by all the tools. He even gave a wierd look while Ellie walked off. Sean stood there, frozen. 'Elsa' style .
"So..." Jay had to ask, "Does this mean your back together?" He watched Sean turn, and storm off.
"Have no fucking idea," growled Sean, going back to his office and slammed the door closed. He went to his couch, pulling it out into the bed it could turn into and laid on it, shutting his eyes and huffing.
Time for that damn nap he needed, badly.
