Chapter 6 - Could this month get any worse?

Ethan was really quiet throughout the whole day and kept giving me odd looks.

But he was better that most men I've met.

'Pheobe,' I stood up from my seat to see Ethan staring at me, again, 'can I please talk to you?'

'Go ahead.'

'In private.'

I paused for a few moments before following him into his private office.

'Is everything okay Ethan?' I asked with a raised eyebrow.

He turned around abruptly and wrapped an arm around my waist.

Without realising what was happening, I pushed him away from me and took a few steps back.

'I'm sorry Ethan, but it's only the first day and I don't know you well enough and-'

He leaned over and kissed me on the lips, it started softly at first but he deepened it soon after.

I don't know why I didn't stop, I don't know why I kissed him back.

After properly registering what happened, I slapped him and left his office.

What just happened? Could this month get any worse?

But that kiss though. I smirked to myself and walked back to my desk.

Maybe someone might love me after all, but I might have ruined my chance.

I guess I'll just have to wait till tomorrow, I thought.
