BPOV
I just cracked my first fucking deal for the Cullen Inc.!
I fucking got it!
It was my first major project here and I fucking got it!
I could feel everyone was seeing me differently today.
Maybe they could finally see that I wasn't just an imposter here. I knew what I was doing!
Today was the best day I've had in months!
I was on cloud nine!
And then I saw Edward Cullen.
I wanted to go to him, and yell at tell him that I fucking got this!
I knew it was childish, and I didn't want to sound arrogant, but come on! I had earned this!
"You're on a good learning curve," he said before I could say anything, "But you've got a lot to learn. You see, being a good businessman is not just about cracking the business deals. It's also about figuring out who is the right person to do which job. For example, I knew you were going to get this deal for us, and see how right I was! I fucking got this right! I'm extremely proud of myself!"
I stared at him with disbelief.
He gotta be kidding me!
He was giving the credit for my hard work to himself!
He was the most self-centered person I've ever met in my whole life!
He was so...
"Look at your face!" He burst into laughter, "It's hilarious!"
What?
"Relax... I was just kidding!" He said.
Okay, so he was joking!
God! I wasn't sure what he found so hilarious about it!
"You did an amazing job!" He smiled, "We are lucky to have you here."
Okay?
It felt so weird to hear something nice from him!
"Okay... So I'm going to ask you for something," he said.
"What?" I said.
"I know what your answer is going to be, but I'm still going to give it a shot," he said.
Okay, now what?
"I know it will sound absurd, but I know what exactly I'm doing," he said.
"Come to the point!" I said.
He took a deep breath.
What the fuck was he going to ask?
I was pretty sure it was going to be something absurd!
"Would you like to go on a date with me?" He asked as he looked into my eyes.
What?
Like, what?
Now how did he come up with... that?
