Chapter 14
You brush away your tears and smile weakly at him. "Of course why wouldn't it be," you say, looking down again. Tom comes over to you, sits on the edge of the table and lifts your chin up with two fingers so he can see into your glassy and swollen eyes. He brushes your tear away with his thumb. "He broke your heart, didn't he?" you nod and he looks at you. You've never seen such a worried face.
"True love doesn't exist in real life. Sooner or later everyone breaks your heart. Even the person you loved the most" he says now and goes to the window. You don't turn around and just look straight ahead. "So you only break hearts because yours was broken? That's not fair" you ask whereupon he looks down and replies "Fair? Life is never fair to you. You play with me I'll play with you," but before you can say anything else Tom gets a call from the clients in Japan. It's a very big project and it's amazing how into his job Tom is. You write down everything that's important and have a sketch in your head all at once. You sketch it out while they briefly talk about their personal lives.
"Tom? Will you come to London when you get your award or will only one of your representatives come again?" one of them asks Tom. Tom has to laugh for a moment and while he laughs you look at him. Actually, you stare at him. His dimples when he laughs come out and it makes him far more attractive when he smiles and doesn't look so angry all the time. "I'll come this time, it would be a shame if I can't rub my price in your face" he says confidently, leaning back in his chair. "And your hot secretary, is she coming too?" someone asks and Tom's look automatically turns angry.
"I don't think that's any of her business gentlemen is it?" asks Tom angrily now, causing the others to laugh. "See you back in London gentlemen" Tom says and switches off the conference. "Are you alright sir" you ask him and he just looks at you quizzically. "Next time wear something else" he says now really angry, which makes you angry too. You stand up backwards and walk over to him. "You can be more considerate of your employees' personal lives next time. Who do they think they are anyway? People still have private lives too, but how are they supposed to live it if they're just working? Ambar said you are a family man, but it doesn't look like it to me. When was the last time you TOM, did something with your best friend or with your brothers-" "Leave my family out of it," he yells at you now. "You stay out of my family and give me some time with my brother. My mom...my mom is sick and why are we still here? Exactly! Because Harrison doesn't know how to work," you yell at him now and Tom looks at you so mad he's about to explode "YOU ARE FIRED!" he yells after louder now.
You grab your bag and slap him. "Asshole." As you walk out of Tom's office, you lose your sketch that Tom finds. Of course, that was just a really bad situation, getting fired again on your very first day, but guys like that, you just have to give him a piece of your mind. When you arrive home, Harrison is waiting for you with a worried face. When he saw you he immediately comes to you and hugs you tightly. "God Y/N, where have you been? I was so worried," he says to you as he moves away from you again. "Mr. Holland, um Tom need me so I went to see him. Then we had a fight and now I'm fired because your best friend, can't stand the truth," you grab your stuff and are about to go upstairs when Harrison stops you.
"We'll find you a job that's not like this one," he says to you reliably. "Haz., how long did it take me to find that job now? Just because I can't keep my mouth shut sometimes. I'm going to bed now and let's see how the day will be tomorrow". You give him a kiss on the cheek and go to your bedroom. You go to change and just take what is hanging over your chair. The famous chair, who doesn't know it. You lie down on your bed and stare at the ceiling. After some time you fall asleep and are woken up by a bell at the door, you try to fall asleep again, but you don't succeed. You go downstairs to the kitchen and make yourself a coffee, until you hear someone talking from the living room.
You take your cup and go into the living room and are surprised to see who is sitting in front of you. Tom and Harrison are sitting in front of you in normal clothes and talking. "Good morning sis," Haz says to you. You ignore Tom and talk to your brother for a moment. Tom looks you up and down and starts grinning. "What are you wearing anyway?" he asks you. For the first time, you look at what you're wearing. Now you know why Tom is staring at you stupidly and grinning all the time. "Um, it's a shirt of yours, I borrowed it once when you weren't here again," you say with an angry look at Tom.
"What's he doing here anyway?", you point your finger at Tom who slowly moves your hand down. "I'm also wishing you a good morning y/n and I'm here to hang out with my best friend again" "don't you have to be in London?" you ask him, raising your eyebrows. "I should, but I'm not going there" he says shrugging his shoulders. "Didn't sound like it yesterday" "Yesterday I had a secretary too" he now gives you a grin. "If you weren't such an asshole, you'd have one too" you say to him now as you lean forward to him while he has a perfect view of your breasts. You can tell he has to keep it together because Harrison is standing here. "I um...", you wink at him and go back to the kitchen to make yourself something to eat. But after a few minutes you notice a warm hand wrapping around your stomach.
