Confrontation

But of course I didn't kiss him.

"Watch your step next time". I didn't ask him to catch me. I've dealt with plenty worst than a fall from a missed step in my lifetime. I could've handled it. I get out of his arms.

"You didn't have to catch me. Maybe you should've allowed me to break my neck!" He seems taken aback. Even I am surprise by my sudden outburst. That isn't usually how I would've handled a situation like this.

"My intention wasn't to offend you". His voice soft. Instead of anger as I expect, I see curiosity in his eyes. As if asking, what is wrong with me?

"Ms George" I look at the direction of Lucifer. That's when I notice the look of everyone's faces. Gape mouths, wide-eyes. Even the music stop.

What's the purpose of this party anyways? I have no interest of getting acquainted with any of these people. Why does everyone needs to know who his PA is?

I already know that it's only due time before Lucifer begins his introductions. Last time that didn't turned out well, did it?

My eyes points back to Lucifer. It's only now I noticed dirty Diana striding behind him.

"I need to speak with both of you. In my office immediately" That's all he said before passing by me. The bitch smirks at me moving behind him still, swinging her hips excessively up the stairs.

I don't get why Lucifer can't fire Diana!? Why didn't he give her my position and called it PB 'personal bitch'

I look back at Harrison. He's still giving me that curious look.

"What? Curious about the size of my bra. Oh I know, the color of my panty right?" With that I turn around. I take up my hand bag and head up the stairs.

***

Lucifer stand beside his desk, cotch his ass at the edge. He fold his arms fiercely looking at both of us. I make sure to stay clear from Diana.

"What is the problem between the both of you?" He questions to none of us in particular.

"Diana have a problem with me the moment I stepped foot in this building" I tell him.

How about, take your time up the stairs next time miss George. I don't want the best PA I've ever had break her ass.

Of course not. He doesn't care.

"I have a problem with you? Your the one who told me your better at your job than me, all of us. That was why Lucifer gave you the PA position in the first place"

I shake my head.

"Diana...you know...". I look at Lucifer instead because that bitch is like a dumb animal. She won't understand anything I say. I try to stay calm.

I feel so angry. Too angry. Well why wouldn't I be. Maybe I'm just fed up of Diana and this place overall!

I don't get so angry so easily. Something's not right with me. I'm even having thoughts of killing her.

Christina something is wrong with you.

I take a step closer to Lucifer after recollecting my anger.

"Mr Morningstar. I'm not a troublesome person. I didn't even know her name until that day. The day she came in here and told you I'm a murderer"

I frown.

My breath hitched involuntarily.

"Who told you I murdered anyone!"

That voice. That's my voice. Who did I say that to? If I did say that it would have to be Diana. The weirdest thing about it is that I don't remember. Is it even a memory?

"Ms George" I look at Lucifer, then Diana. She's looking at me as if I'm crazy. It makes me wonder if I am going crazy.

"Continue" Lucifer adds, but I see the look on his face. It isn't the same as Diana, but the same as Harrison.

I utterly regain myself to proceed.

I exhale through my nostrils, relax Christina... relax.

"She even told me she wanted me to hear both of you having sex. As a form of way for me to get jealous" He look at Diana. In a way which one of his eyebrow raised, with a stern face.

"I don't know why she thinks so low of me. Maybe because you've screwed her and she thinks you've done it to me too. So please.. clear it up to her" Lucifer look at me as if he realize that I haven't just insult Diana, but him too.

He ignore it and focus on Diana.

I turn to Diana who now displays...well you know the look a person has on their face waiting for a confession? Closed mouth, curious expression, slightly wide eyes? Yeah that's the look on her face looking at Lucifer.

"Diana. I don't accept that you are making a big deal out of what happened between us. Or that you are making others aware of it..." Like both of you didn't do it while I was in the next room. He told her that I wasn't in the office, I guess it's because he wanted her to tell him what she came about...but she knew I was in there, I guess he didn't know that.

I roll my eyes. Whether or not he realize I don't care at this point. I'm tired.

"However, I owe you no explanation. And just because I call you Diana means you should've addressed me by my Christian name. I demand a resignation letter from you tomorrow morning" She gape.

"I fucked you a few times. It doesn't mean you have control over me. It was no commitment or any strings attached. Both of us already know this. However I'm not married to you so it shouldn't and is not your concern who I date, or who I'm fucking. Leave my office" I see water well up in her eyes.

I know Diana is a bitch, but no woman needs to be treated the way Lucifer does. The only offensive thing she said to me was what she said today.

Why should I even feel sorry for her?

Why didn't he tell her nothing was going on between us. I don't want my name in sync with his in anything that's not work related.

Why fire her anyways? I don't want her to get fired. Well kinda, but I just want him to get her off my back and don't spread false accusations about me.

I turn back to Lucifer.

"Mr Morningstar I know your the boss and all, but you don't need to fire her" He look at me like what I just said is unbelievable.

"All I'm asking is that you clear things up about us with her and others maybe. You gave me a ride home last night and that's it, nothing else. Our relationship is strictly professional. Don't fire her because of the things I told you she'd said. If there's another reason fine but not because of this. It's minor" I look at her.

She gives me a weak smile. Guess she now knows the type of person I am. I have to show her that I'm being better.

"Excuse us" He gesture to Diana with brief flash of his hand.

He lean from his desk and walk closer to me.

"You have a good heart Ms George" And I'm guessing it's something you don't have.

I just think, even if Lucifer doesn't say anything more to Diana, she still won't bother me anymore.

"Just please let her keep her job. She had been here before me anyways. She was just... being defensive" It seems he'll make any woman go crazy.

I wonder why he doesn't have that effect on me?

He shove his hands into his pockets. I look at the way he stands. It's not only the way he dresses and his demanding facial expression that screams boss, but also the way he stand.

"Very well then. As long as her bothering you doesn't persist I won't. If your stressed out and messed up then that is most likely to affect your work performance. We can't allow that" I never let stress affect doing my job properly.

Wait.

Did Lucifer Morningstar just accepted not to fire Diana because I said so?

"Fair enough" I said. He look at me as if he wants to say something else. I keep looking at him for him to say it. But he turn around and walk to his desk, then he turns around heading for the door.

Did he just gets confuse?

My phone starts ringing. I take it from my hand bag.

The same number from last night. I clench my teeth.

I feel a mixture of fear and anger.

"What do you want?" I answer rather boldly. I look behind me. My eyes widen the moment I see Lucifer standing at the door. He's just about to open it, but instead he's looking at me. That's the first thing you should've done Christina, making sure he leaves first before answering!

But because of curiosity.

I'm curious of who he is. I know his voice sounds familiar. I wanna hear his voice to see if I can match it. The people a know and love are in danger. I can't help but to be anxious to hear the voice again.

"I just want you to know that my upcoming is near Christina. I'm gonna make you suffer like you've made me" What?

"W-Who are you?" Hearing what he said churns my stomach. The stutter came out involuntarily.

He hangs up.

Tears.

Those things that I've seen so much in the past that I hate seeing now are welling up in my eyes. I yell and fling the phone to the wall totally forgetting that Lucifer is still inside the office with me. My hand bag fall from my hand, then both of them starts shaking.

"Ms George?"

Oh no. I'm going to blackout. I can see it and I can feel it.

"Luci-Lucifer" I call for his help. I'm not sure I said it out loud enough.

Why am I blocking out?

I feel my body about to fall, but it seems Lucifer catches me before I hit the ground. For some unknown reason, I feel comfortable to succumb to blocking out.
