21
I stare out the window as Adam drives me home, a smile still evident on my face.
"How was Cass? Do you like her?" Adam asks.
I nod and turn towards Adam. "She's super nice. You met her because of Max, right?"
Adam nods and looks at me then back at the road. "Yeah. She used to work at the office, but Max, Ross and Cass stopped working there so we have three empty offices now."
I nod a bit and look back out my window.
-
I hide in one of the vacant offices, holding a hand over my mouth, muffling my giggles.
Yeah, I'm not the most lethal person in the world.
"Come out come out wherever you aaaare," I hear Red sing.
I quickly slip out and run to a different part of the office which happens to be behind a couch.
I peek out from above it and watch as Red comes into view.
I quickly pull the trigger and shoot Red, soon after jumping up from my hiding spot. "Whoo! I win!" I shout and laugh.
"Aw - hey!" Red whines.
I laugh a bit and go put my gun away then go back to the couch.
"Red -?" I ask and look around, realizing I can't see him.
I don't even hear him running up behind me until he tackles me onto the couch, careful not to hurt me.
I stare up at him, wide eyed.
"Weren't expecting that, huh?" He taunts.
I scoff and laugh a bit. "No, actually." I say and raise an eyebrow at him.
He laughs a bit. "So we're even now?" He asks.
"Yeah. Can you let go?" I ask, staring up into his eyes.
"Hmm.. No," he replies.
I sigh and try to push my wrists up so he gets off. Nope.
I raise an eyebrow at him and feel my heart start racing.
He starts to lean forward, and I feel my breathing hitch in my throat multiple times.
"Red! Adams looking f- oh, nevermind." Tim walks in then slowly backs out.
Fuck you Tim.
Red sighs and gets up then looks down at me. "Probably just a recording. I should be back soon." He says and leaves.
I lay there staring up at the ceiling for a few seconds before I sit up and run a hand through my hair.
"Tee, what was that?" I hear Tim ask, making me practically jump out of my skin.
"Nothing." I say and look over at him.
He raises an eyebrow and folds his arms over his chest.
I groan and bite my lip. "Fine. I have a crush on Red- but don't you dare tell him." I hiss.
"But you guys were about to-"
"Shush." I hiss.
He rolls his eyes. "You were." He says, sounding slightly annoyed.
I roll my eyes and get up then walk by him. "I was, but so what?" I ask as I wander around the office.
"So, what do you think Adam will say if he finds out?"
"Don't you dare," I hiss at Tim.
"I'm just sayin'," he says, raising his hands.
"How would he find out anyways?" I ask, looking over at him.
"Because, well, Red has the hots for you."
I stop mid step and look at Tim. "That's not funny." I say and turn then go to leave.
"I'm being serious, on the ride back to the office, he wouldn't shut up about you, saying how pretty you are."
I roll my eyes. "Whatever you say," I mutter and go into the kitchen.
About thirty minutes later, I'm sitting on a couch and looking down at my phone when I see two feet walk up in front of me.
I look up and smile. "Hey, Red. Finished recording?" I ask.
"Yeah," he says and sits beside me. "So I heaaard," Red says and looks at me. "That Tim told you I like you." He says, raising his eyebrows.
I feel my face heat up. "Is it true..?" I ask.
"Did he tell you?"
"I asked you first."
"I asked you second."
"Red." I say and look over at him. "Is it?"
"Did he tell you?"
I exhale loudly and narrow my eyes at him. "Fine." I say and get up then go to leave but my wrist is grabbed and I'm pulled back down to the couch, my eyes immediately meeting Red's.
"What." I say and raise an eyebrow.
"It is." He says and seconds later, his lips are on mine, my eyes instinctively closing and I quickly adjust to the kiss, Red pulling away soon after.
My eyes open again and I feel my heart pounding in my chest, surprised that he'd just kissed me. Out of all people.
"Guess what?" Red asks.
"Wh-what?" I stutter.
"Your face is Red." He says and laughs at his own pun.
I make a face and hide it with a pillow quickly.
"Don't be embarrassed," Red laughs and steals my pillow.
I bite my tongue and look into his eyes.
He leans forward again and kisses me, a bit gentler this time.
My shoulders quickly relax as I kiss him, and I gasp slightly when he puts one hand on my waist.
"Tee- whoa! Red what the fuck?!" I hear an all too familiar voice snap.
Uh oh.
