Meiko sat at her desk remembering waking up this morning to the most gorgeous man she's ever laid eyes on. A smile came to her face when she thought about how he touched her all over her body and how his soft, yet passionate kisses tasted and felt. For the first time in a very long time, she felt excitement in her life. That night made her the happiest woman in the world and she wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. She honestly wasn't sure if she was going to see him again, and she really didn't care to. All that mattered was that they had their moment that one night, just to blow off some steam …right?

Meiko quickly shot up out of her daze when she heard Luka's voice.

"That man from corporate has come to see you today like I mentioned yesterday. He seems like a sleazy fellow, so watch out. He already tried hitting on me twice…" Luka left and waved the man in.

As Meiko suspected, it was none other than Gakupo. He hadn't been to see her for a while, and Luka was fairly new, so she didn't know him. Meiko knew him all too well, though…

Gakupo was indeed a huge sleaze. He'd try and make advances at Meiko more times than she could count. He came every once in a while to advise the company on what they should do to continue to thrive, and cut down on employees if they had to. Not like he cared if anyone but him was out of a job.

"Hello my dear Meiko, I bet you're wondering why I'm here." He spoke in a very seductive tone.

"Not really, just tell me and get out of here" Meiko sneered.

"My my, such a catty girl you've always been…"

Meiko huffed in response.

"Well as you see, this company continues to be behind in everything all the time. This is simply not allowed by corporate standards."

Meiko slammed her desk and shot up.

"LOOK. First off, we have been doing everything in our power to ensure that we do everything we're supposed to. Second, cut your smart ass tone! You don't think I KNOW all of this?"

Meiko paused for a moment.

"Look, Gakupo, we're doing everything we can to stay stable. I really don't know what else you want from me. I've fired everyone you've asked, I've done everything. So why are you here?"

"Well now, here's where it gets juicy, you see. That's precisely what I've told corporate. You've done everything according to us, yet this company STILL continues to fill its quotas. So that being, it must NOT be the employees, but the person in CHARGE of the employees."

Meiko froze and her eyes widened.

"… Wait. So you're telling me it's MY fault?!"

Meiko sounded more than offended.

"I'll have you know that I bust my ASS for my employees. When they all go home, I stay here and do anything that needs to be finished."

"Well bravo for you, but it's clearly not enough my dear Meiko. What I've come here to tell you is that if things continue as they are, YOU'RE going to be out of a job. I've casually spoken with some of the employees around here, they seem to think you're the problem as well."

Meiko sat there speechless, angry, and above all, hurt by these accusations. Did everyone really hate her THAT much?

"Although, there could be a way around this my lovely Meiko…" Gakupo said with intent.

He came very close to her here, much closer than Meiko was comfortable with and whispered "Just one night of fun with me and this could all go away…"

Meiko quickly slapped him across his face with all of her might and sat there silently.

"Fine then, have it your way" Gakupo rubbed his throbbing cheek with his hand. "We'll start our search for a replacement immediately."

"Do whatever you want. Just get the hell out of my office."

"As you wish, my lovely."

Gakupo turned around and left with a cocky smirk on his face. Luka knew that nothing good could have gone down between them. Luka raced into Meiko's office so check how everything went only to find Meiko behind her desk sobbing.

"Oh my gosh! Meiko, are you okay? What did that jerk say to you?" Luka sounded very worried.

"What does it even matter" her voice was so broken from her tears flowing down her face.

"Nobody cares about me, nobody cares about anything I do for them. Why continue busting my ass for such ungrateful pieces of slime, doing something that I never even wanted to do in the first place?"

Luka felt for her, but was shocked by what she was hearing. "Meiko, I'm not very sure what happened, but I'm sure it will be fine in the end…"

Meiko spoke as if she was never listening "It doesn't matter. I'm quitting this hell-hole. I don't need it, and they don't need me. I've dealt with so much from this piece of crap company, and I'm through. I'm DONE."

Meiko got up as if in a hurry to go somewhere. Luka tried to stop her, but failed in doing so as Meiko pulled away from her grasp and trudged along as quickly as she could.

Meiko walked out of the building feeling many emotions that were familiar to her, but there was something hidden.

Anger; yeah… she's felt that before. That was definitely nothing new.

Hatred; she's felt that toward Gakupo since the day she met him. Again, nothing new.

It definitely couldn't be sadness. She's felt sad about her life ever since she started working in that damn place.

So what was it?

Meiko just shrugged it off as she turned her head away from all of the memories and continued wandering the city.

Kaito sat there looking out his window like always. He always felt like the luckiest man in the office to have such a great window seat. He felt like he could see everything going on in the city. His face stayed a constant bright red throughout the whole day as he thought about his previous night. He was pretty sure he had met the woman of his dreams, but he wasn't quite sure if he was the man of hers. He was pretty sure she was just feeling lonely and needed a moment of comfort. Kaito wasn't normally the kind of person to do something like that. To be honest, he never thought he was ever going to take up that kind of opportunity. What exactly happened to change his mind?

"I thought I'd find you here spacing out like always" Lola chuckled.

Kaito let out a small laugh "Yeah, sorry about that."

Lola noticed he was acting weirder than usual… "Kaito, did something happen to you? You've sort of been out of it all day."

Kaito tensed up as he felt a surge of embarrassment run through him.

"No… Nothing in particular. Nothing out of the ordinary." He rubbed the back of his head and continued laughing hysterically sparking suspicion.

"Wow. I never realized how terrible of a liar you were. Come on, spill it." Lola refused to stop until she got answers.

"Well…" Kaito said reluctantly

Kaito then glanced out the window and his eyes widened.

"What is she…"

He then saw that the familiar face was crying uncontrollably. He felt an uncontrollable urge to run outside and comfort her.

"Lola, I'll be RIGHT back."

Kaito shot up out of his chair and started running out as fast as he could, not caring who or what he ran into. Lola sat there confused.

Kaito ran out of the building, finding her wandering aimlessly along the streets.

"MEIKO!" He sharply yelled her name and saw her head turn in shock.

"Kai… What…"

"Never mind that, what's the matter?" Kaito spoke with concern.

"Oh nothing" Meiko lightly chuckled.

"Stop lying to me. It definitely does NOT look like nothing."

Meiko was shocked at the concern from this man that she hardly knew.

"Oh well, you know" Meiko chuckled. "I just quit my job is all… Now I don't really have any income and don't really know what to do from here on out." She spoke lightly but tears continued building up in those big brown eyes that Kaito had feel in love with the night before.

Upon hearing this, Kaito pulled her in for a tight embrace. He stroked her short brown locks and kept shushing her to calm down.

This just made Meiko cry even more as more tears started flowing from her eyes, this time they were unstoppable.

Kaito kissed her head and rubbed continuously rubbed up and down her back as his shoulder was becoming soaked in Meiko's tears.

Meiko pulled away and rubbed the tears out of her swollen, red eyes and proceeded to speak much more calmly than Kaito had expected.

"So I'm going to assume this is where you work." She eyed the building out of curiosity.

"Yep!" Kaito answered with a boyish smile. "I have that great window view desk riiiiiight there" Kaito pointed.

"That explains how you saw me… Wow, I must look pathetic." Meiko said in realization.

"No, not at all. To be honest, you look more beautiful than you did last night. I can see you so much better in the sunlight" Kaito smiled, but spoke softly making Meiko's face glow bright red.

"I'm really sorry for worrying you, Kaito. You can get back to work now. I'm fine, really." Meiko gave a forced smile with the remnants of tears still in her eyes.

"No" He said sternly.

"What do you mean "No"?" Meiko irritatingly retorted.

"I want to spend the day with you, Meiko. Would that upset you?"

Meiko became a bit flustered.

"D-Don't you need to get back to work?" Meiko replied

"I'll tell them there's a family emergency. They don't need me there anyway. To be honest, I don't even really know what I'm supposed to be doing anyway" Kaito laughed

"Okay I'm going to go tell them. Stay here I'll be RIGHT back, I promise." Kaito sounded so energetic.

Meiko decided to wait as she him run as fast as he could inside of the building.

"He's so adorable…" She thought to herself as she smiled.

Kaito entered the office out of breath from running up every flight of steps to the office (His office is on the 10th floor). He thought it would be quicker than having to wait for the elevator, which usually had a fairly long line.

"Kaito, are you okay? You ran out of here like a mad man, now you're coming in here like one" Lola said in suspicion.

"...Where's... the boss?" He spoke a tad slower trying to catch his breath.

Lola pointed to the office and Kaito bolted there.

"Hello, boss? Hi, uhm, I know this is sudden, but I just got a call from my brother and there's a family emergency. I'm going to need to head out immediately."

Since Kaito almost never leaves early, the boss had no problem letting him go. Kaito thanked him more times than he probably should have.

Kaito exited the office and said goodbye to Lola. Lola overheard their conversation and knew something was up.

She had seen him outside hugging a young woman who appeared to be upset about something, but she definitely was not her brother. Lola had an obvious crush on him ever since they started working together, but she never acted on it. It was too weird for co-workers to date. Was she too late? Was there someone trying to take her Kaito away from her? She needed answers, but she wasn't very sure if she wanted to know the answers.

She waved innocently to him as he ran out of the office.

"I don't know who you are, but he's mine" She angrily mumbled to herself.

Wow okay, if it ever seems like I'm just winging it, it's because I am XD I hope this ends up going well. To be honest I just kind of write this when I get bored and fangirly. I really hope it's not terrible. If it is, PLEASE tell me. I'll try and do better if I try and do other stories or in later chapters. Or if it's good, tell me that too. I just want you guys to enjoy Kaimei cause Kaimei is lyfe. Also I have no idea how businesses work. I just needed to have a reason for Meiko to quit her job xD You'll see why in later chapters.
