Oh god, please let me live long enough to have this woman-- who hates anybody touch her-- be in my arms every day.

I sighed dreamily in my office.

It has been about a little over ten minutes since we started dating.

"Maybe another cup of coffee could fix that." I stood up and went outside and did an entire u-turn immediately after seeing Claire run out of the elevator.

"Sweetheart!" She yelled, and I cringed.

"What, sweetheart?" I entered my office and tried closing the door while she kept pushing it with her body.

"That red skin-tight dress will rip apart if you do this." I pushed.

"It's elastic!" She strained to push back.

"Che diavolo state facendo voi due?" I heard a familiar (and sexy) Italian lady whom I very much was in love with.

[What on God's green earth are you two doing?]

"Oh just--"

"She's trying to barge in calling me sweetheart." I opened the door wide while smirking, making her stumble.

Serves her right for stealing someone's man.

You just started dating literally fifteen minutes ago.

Serves her right for stealing someone's man from fifteen minutes ago.

My thoughts conflicted as I stifled my laugh.

Rose glared at me and then at Claire.

"You're Claire, right? The receptionist?" She asked.

"Y-yes."

"What work do you have here?"

"I was here to pursue him for a date."

Rose gave her a look which said: 'Seriously?'

"Excuse me," I interrupted her, "I am taken."

"Since when!?" She screeched.

"Well, fifteen minutes ago." I stated, shrugging.

Rose looked at me again, and I smiled. She sighed, pinching her nose bridge.

"I'm deducting both of your salaries for improper work behaviour." She said, walking to the elevator, "And Mr. Luciano. We need to talk."

"Oh no, she's mad." I sighed and pushed Claire outside the office.

"Fifteen minutes ago? Are you kidding me?" She was sputtering, "And I needed to buy a new dress with that paycheck!!" She stomped her foot and walked to the elevator.

I closed the door and laughed.
