When you feel alone or depressed, do not give up. There is a person who will be standing behind you always. All you need is to turn back and hug that person.

The beeping of my alarm snapped me out of my slumber and I groaned in annoyance switching it off. I fell back on my bed trying to get rid of the sleep that threatened to swallow me but I couldn't fight against it anymore so I gave up and began to doze off back to sleep. Thank God my mobile began to beep and this time I snapped out of the sleep, swearing loudly and turned off the alarm on my mobile.

This is my daily habit. I would go back to sleep again if I don't use another source to wake up. I checked the time to find it already past 5 O'clock in the morning. I tied my long wavy brown hair into a messy bun and got up from the bed making it neatly in the process and went inside the bathroom.

I did my business, bathing, brushing my teeth and came out of the bathroom only wearing a towel.

Today is a big day of my life. I would be joining the most prestigious Private Bank in New York. I have been informed that I would have to start from today itself and my post is to be a personal secretary to the CEO himself. I wonder who he is. Nice or a jerk. Just the thought of my new adventure got me excited.

Quickly getting ready for my first day, I did my makeup. I applied eyeliner and Mascara which made my Brown eyes look good. I applied Pink colored lipstick and tied my long Brown wavy hair into a neat Ponytail.

I chose to wear a black pencil skirt and matched it with a pink blouse and wore a Black Blazer to give myself a professional look. Sliding into my black stilettos, I wore my black-rimmed glasses and took my Important files and clutched my handbag and made my way towards my Kitchen.

I kept my things on the table and was just about to enter the kitchen when my eyes felt on the watch which was hanging above my Led Tv. It was already 8 in the morning and I had to reach there before 8:30.

"Oh shit!" clutching my things, I ran out of my apartment, locking it and keeping the key under my mat. I hurried towards the elevator and left the building in a rush giving a quick greeting and goodbyes to the people whom I knew in the building.

Hiring a Taxi, I finally reached my destination right at Eight-thirty.

"God! I'm totally late. Please help me" I mentally prayed to the almighty and went into the building which was named " Theller International's "

I went directly towards the lady in the counter and gave her my joining letter. The sweet lady whose name was Anabelle helped me on my schedule and gave me the directions towards my Boss room.

I have heard that my Boss was the CEO of the Bank and according to sources he is really young. I even heard that he keeps himself low profile and when I searched the net I seriously didn't get any pictures of him except some photos in which his face was not clearly visible.

I took the elevator and punched the 38th button to which I had to go and waited patiently to reach my floor.

The ping sound of the elevator door made me jump out of the elevator and I hurried towards another lady in the counter and asked her about my Boss room. The lady professionally guided me towards my Boss room and left as soon as we reached a wooden door.

I inhaled deeply and composed myself and checked my attire for the last time. Mentally preparing an excuse for being late on my first day, I bit down on my lips and knocked on the door.

I furrowed in confusion when I didn't get any response and I thought to knock once again. I knocked on the door and surprisingly found the door open. Going against my instincts on not to enter the room, I did the opposite and out of curiousness entered the room.

It was a big room. Mahogany Table, Bookshelves, some expensive pictures hanging in the wall, a Computer and a couch. There was a big glass window which showed the view of the city.

I was totally awed seeing the beautiful professional room. There were two attached door and I guessed one was a bathroom and again out of curiosity I knocked on the wooden door only to find no response. Clicking my tongue in annoyance, I turned the knob slowly and to my absolute horror their stood two humans eating each other's face wildly.

I mean kissing.

Before I could do anything a gasp left my mouth and the two snapped out of their little intimate conversation. The girl had black hair, tall and slim figured and wore high heels with red body-con mid thigh dress.

The other person was of course a man. To be precise an absolutely gorgeous man. Words couldn't describe how stunning he looked wearing those Grey Armani Business suite. He stood tall, around 6'2 feet and he had those beautiful green eyes which could hold anyone captivate for I don't know how many hours. But the most scary things was his aura. He had this dark " Do not mess with me" aura which did reckless things to my body and I shivered under his glaring green eyes which were now pointing towards me.

The girl stomped her feet and clutched her bag and went past me out of the door pushing my shoulder out of the process and giving me a dirty look, I balanced myself and adjusted my dress.

"Who are you?" The man spoke with a husky yet deadly voice.

"I'm Sangavi Carter and I'm here for the job" I replied trying not to stutter and make a fool out of myself on the first day. He was really intimidating and I squirmed under his intense glare.

He adjusted his suite and buttoned up the few buttons of his inner shirt and glared at me.

"Well welcome Miss Carter, I'm your Boss and the CEO of this Bank, Caleb Theller" he said casually and walked towards me.

Every step he took, I took one back. I felt so small as he towered over me. My chest began to rise and fall rapidly.

What was happening?

"Shall we start now Miss Carter?" He said as he stopped a few inches in front of me. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

"Start What Sir?" I asked and to my disbelief he smirked evilly, his eyes glinting mischievously "Oh its nothing. Only With your punishment for being late on your first Day Miss Carter".

My eyes widened and I mentally punched myself on my face.

Oh what have I got myself into?

***************************

When your brain is tired, You are tired, make yourself a cup of coffee and find a quiet room, closing the door stand near the window and play your fav song. You will feel refreshed.

What a day.

A tremendous day of my life which I'm sure I can never forget in my entire life.

First of all I was late for my work on my first day. Secondly I missed my breakfast and now Its already past twelve and I'm still hungry. Third one is the most embarrassing one and that was when I walked in on my boss having a steamy make out session with a girl. I wanted the ground to open and swallow me in whole at that moment. I have never faced such humiliation in my life, especially in front of someone that resembles a Greek god.

Shit!

However when Mr. Theller stated that he was going to punish me, I took that just as a phrase and didn't care. But truly enough I got the punishment, and a cruel one that was.

True to his word he did punish me. My punishment is to work the whole day without any break.

I mean what is this?

Some school?

I agree that I was late but I didn't do that intentionally. Thanks to my so called Boss my stomach is roaring like a hungry lion wanting to eat something.

I have been arranging files from the beginning of the day and finally I'm done. He told me to go to this office store room and arrange every file according to its Record alphabets.

Well, though it was hard and tiring. I somehow managed to do my work perfectly.

Finally I could go to my cabin and take a sit to rest. My legs are aching and my shoulders are aching so badly due to the heavy weights. I don't know how he expects me to do all of this hard work by myself with no break! Does he not have a heart to feel sympathy for me? Well judging by his cruel ways, I doubt he even knows what emotions are.

Closing the store room door behind me I made my way towards my Cabin. That's the only good part here. I got my own Cabin which was unfortunately next to Mr. Theller's room. Yay! lucky me, I get to hear all the sounds of pleasure coming from next door.

Just great! (note the sarcasm)

I was just about to enter my Cabin when a voice stopped me.

"Is your work over Miss Carter?" My boss Mr. Theller asked crossing his hands over his chest, raising an eyebrow.

I faced him and with confidence said "Yes sir. The work you gave me is done".

He rubbed his chin using his fingers and looked impressed. "So early?" He was suppose to mutter that but I heard it.

"Yes sir. So what do I do next?" I asked and he stared at me as if I have grown two horns on my head.

He hasn't seen how stubborn and determined I can get. I guess he will just have to wait and see huh?

"Interesting. Very interesting" he said and smirked.

I raised an eyebrow at his weird expression and waited for him to reply something. The smirk was beginning to get very irritating and I so badly want to wipe it off. The temptation I was so strong but I couldn't risk my job. I needed this job so I have to bear with all the stupidity regardless of how much it annoys the hell out of me, and by it I mean Caleb.

"Book seats for five people in a good Italian restaurant and take your things with you. You are coming with me" he said and turned around to leave.

I clenched my jaw and adjusted my glasses, nevertheless I called a good Italian restaurant, my favorite one at that, just like the bastard asked. Since I was choosing I might as well give myself a treat. I mean I have worked so hard so I deserve some reward and that jerk is taking me with him. Only god knows why he wants to string me along with him. STUPID ASSHOLE. He was so infuriating and I had no idea how I was going to cope with him but there was a teeny tiny part of me that was attracted to him but no way in hell would I admit that aloud to anyone. He was player and I don't need drama in my life at the moment. I have enough of it already. I don't need any more.

I took my handbag and got out of my cabin. I found him waiting near the elevator. I went towards him and stood behind him waiting for the elevator. He turned around to watch me with those green intense eyes, his signature smirk plastered on his face. I rolled my eyes and looked away before I did something stupid like slap him.

What's about that smirk?

As soon as the elevator door opened he stepped in. But when I was going to enter he stopped me "What are you doing Ms. Carter? Why are you wasting your time standing here? You will be late and I hate people who don't respect time" he said making me confused.

What does he mean now?

I was just about to open my mouth when I watched as the elevator door closed before me and then it strikes me.

"Shit! That jerk wants me to take the stairs instead of the elevator" I muttered irritated. I had no idea why he seeks pleasure in seeing me in pain. It made me sick and angry. BASTARD!

"Fine Mr. Theller Game on" I said determined and ran to take the stairs. If he wants to play fine. Two can play at that game Mr.

I took off my stilettos and held it in my hands. Taking a deep breath I muttered "Lets do it Sang" and dashed off the stairs.

I kept running on the stairs holding the railing for support. It was really difficult for me as I have to reach to the ground floor from 38th floor. I began to pant when I reached 20th floor. I stopped for a second and adjusted my glasses and began to run down again.

Finally when I reached the ground floor my state was very bad. I was panting hardly and beads of sweat formed on my forehead. I waited for some minutes to get my breath even. I wore my stilettos and composing myself, walked out of the building only to find Mr. Theller standing beside the road, his back facing me talking on his phone.

I slowly made my way towards him and waited for him to end his conversation.

He turned his head only and looked at me then went back on his phone. I stood their patiently waiting for him to finish with his conversation.

Soon a Limo pulled up on the road and the driver came holding the door open for us. Only then did he hang up his call and turned around with an eyebrow raised.

"What is the name of the Restaurant where you booked the seats Ms. Carter?" He asked and I replied "It's "The papa's rouge"

"Oh its quite far. So, What are you still doing here Ms. Carter?" He asked and my heart beat began to sped up, thinking about all the possibilities he would want me to do now.

"If you keep standing here you will be late and what did I say about being Late?" He gave me a smug look and smirking he entered the Limo closing the door behind him while I stood their gawking at him.

"If he wasn't going to take me with him then he should have told me earlier" I thought to myself and fisted my palms into balls. I hope he is having fun taunting me cause I'm sure as hell not. "His time will come, don't worry sang", I chanted the mantra, hoping to calm me down.

I watched as the Limo drove away leaving me there.

"Fine Mr. Theller. Fine" I muttered and began to look for a Taxi. After waiting for five minutes finally a Taxi pulled up before me and I dashed in giving the address to the driver.

I looked at my watch to see that I needed to reach their within five minutes and the restaurant was still at a quiet distance. We were stuck in a traffic for fifteen minutes and I started to worry.

Finally after five minutes we reached the Restaurant. I gave the money to the driver and rushed in. The manager guided me towards a compartment and their he was sitting with two men.

I scowled at him but nevertheless plastered a fake smile on my face and went towards them. As soon as I reached there, three of them turned their head to look at me.

"I'm really sorry for being late Mr. Theller" I said and he glared at me while other two men smiled nodding their head.

I took a seat next to Mr. Theller calming down a bit.

"You are late" Mr. Theller whispered next to me and I couldn't help but feel irritated. It was his fault so why the fuck is he shouting at me.

"If only you have taken me with you I wouldn't have been this late" I thought to myself .clenching my jaws I whispered back "Sorry Sir, it was the Traffic".

"Who is this lovely lady?" A man asked as he looked me up and down, his eyes lingering for a bit longer than necessary. I smiled at him, feeling a bit shy. All these men were very hot. They looked like models and I felt like nothing compared to them.

"She is my Secretary" Mr. Theller introduced me to them while glaring at me. Ignoring him, I gave my best smile to the clients. It wasn't my fault they were staring at me.

The two man were dressed in expensive business suites and I came to know them as our very important clients. The man who had black hair was Mr. Thompson while the man who looked Chinese was Mr. Jobs.

The waiter came and took out orders. When it was time for me to order, Mr. Theller interrupted me, saying "That will be enough, You can go" he told the waiter and I eyed him shocked and confused. I was so hungry and tears threatened to come out. Why is he doing this to me. I haven't done anything wrong for him to treat me this way. But I was strong so I refused to give him the satisfaction of seeing me cry.

"Wait! Won't Ms. Carter order anything for her?" Mr. Jobs said and I smiled at his generousness. At least he cared unlike others.

"No. She will not order anything as I remember she told me this Morning that she had a stomach pain and I think she shouldn't eat Italian food when she is taking medicines" he said and I prayed to the almighty to give me strength not to stab him to death using the fork.

The nerve of this jerk. He lied to everyone.

"Is that so?" Mr. Thompson asked me raising an eyebrow. I glanced at caleb to see him already staring at me. Taking a deep breath, I gave him a shaky smile and nodded. I could feel Caleb's eyes on me but I refused to look at him, as I stared ahead, nibbling on my lips.

"Very well then you may go" he told the waiter and the waiter left leaving my hope to die inside my stomach. I haven't eaten anything since the morning and I am dying to quench my hunger. '

While the waiter was gone the Men chatted about their business while I waited patiently for the meeting to get over.

"So what do you think about the proposal Mr. Jobs?" Mr. Theller asked making me look towards them.

"Ah The proposal. Well I think your energy, Innovative ideas, and proven records of accomplishment are a great combination with our strong franchise and corporate culture. No wonder you are so successful at such a young age" Mr. Jobs said and I began to think.

Yeah he really is successful for his age.

"Yes and he even provides the customer a unified Banking experience. So I think fixing this deal will be a great profit for our franchise" Mr. Thompson added and I looked at Mr. Theller giving them a quiet smile and nod.

He doesn't seem like the person to feel proud of himself even after getting the toughest deal.

I am impressed.

"Thank you and I ensure you that you won't ever regret your decision" Mr. Theller said and finally the deal was made. They signed some contracts and shook their hands.

Mean time, the waiter came and served their orders. My mouth watered seeing the dishes. I loved Italian.

They served themselves and I watched as Mr. Theller gave me a smug look as if he knew what I was thinking. I looked away and bent my head.

"Are you sure Ms. Carter that you don't want to eat?" Mr. Jobs asked and I replied "Yeah I'm sure. Thank you for asking" I replied and he shrugged his shoulder. I watched as three of them began to eat and I averted my gaze towards my phone to keep myself from looking towards the mouth watering food.

Finally, it was over and they went away shaking our hands. As I guessed Mr. Theller again didn't bother to give me a lift and I was left alone on the street searching for a Taxi to go back to the building.

When I reached the building I began to feel dizzy. I was thinking to buy something to eat but checked the time to find the break was already over.

I went inside the building and took the elevator. The ping sound made me to jump as I headed out of the elevator and into my cabin.

Upon reaching my cabin, I took a seat on my chair and relaxed a bit. I began to check the memos which Mr. Theller left for me on the table and began to do my work as instructed.

It was already late by the time I finished my work. I got up from my chair and took the file which he asked me to bring after its completion. I made my way towards his cabin and knocked in the door. As usual, no response.

I thought of leaving the file on his desk and go back home. I looked here and there to find no one in the office except the lady in the counter.

Sighing, I opened the door to his cabin and walked in. I kept the file on his desk and was just about to leave when again for the second time in the same day, unintentionally I walked in while he was making out with a girl. This time it was a different girl. A blonde girl.

Before I could walk away they stopped kissing and they looked at me irritated for interrupting them. The door of the attached room was open and I accidentally interrupted them when I left the file with a loud thud on the table.

The girl buttoned up her shirt blouse and walked out with a flushed face while Mr. Theller seemed beyond angry.

"Well its because you literally ruined his little moment".

My inner self mocked me and I gulped audibly watching him walk towards me taking long strides. His height towered my 5'8 height and I found myself wanting to hide somewhere where he couldn't find me.

His shirt buttons were open and I could see his perfectly sculpted muscular chest. My eyes looked anywhere but him. "oh crap." I whispered.

"How dare you?" He roared making me flinch.

"Who asked you to come in?" He shouted and I began to take deep breaths not to break down before him on the first day of my job.

"I knocked but nobody responded" I said without stuttering and looked directly into his eyes not giving him a chance to intimidate me.

"Oh really? Ms. Carter now you are lying to my face" he sneered and it took my every sanity not to punch him on his face.

"I do not lie Mr. Theller and I hate lies" I responded making his eyes flicker.

It was true, I hated lies. I hated those who lied. For me, it was the most important thing. I never trusted those who lied to me.

"Don't teach me about lying and I don't give a Damn about you hating lies. I'm the boss here and I won't tolerate such behavior from any of my employee do you get that and next time when you think of showing disrespect to me, that will be your last day in this building. Remember this" he said giving me a warning and I thought to keep my mouth shut, not wanting to anger him more.

"Do I make myself clear?" He asked with a raised tone and I nodded.

"When I ask you something, use your mouth and answer me" he shouted making me reply "Yes Sir" quickly.

"Now get lost" he roared and I gulped adjusting my glasses. I took swift steps to exit the room and made sure to close the door behind me.

I would've broken down if I didn't feel so dizzy. I composed myself and went inside my cabin. I took my bag and closed the door behind me. I walked towards the elevator when the world around me began to revolve and I held my head. I began to loose my balance and was just about to fell when I felt two strong warm arms on my waist, preventing me from falling.

"Ms. Carter" it was a muscular voice and it took me some minutes to register the voice.

"Ms. Carter are you alright?" Mr. Theller held me by my shoulder and steadied me on my legs. I watched as his facial expression showed softness and warmness.

"Yes" I managed to speak.

"What happened?" He asked worry filled his voice.

"I felt dizzy probably from not eating from morning" I replied holding my head.

He was still holding me by my shoulders steadying me and supporting me from falling. I was facing him and I felt pressure on my shoulders.

"You mean you haven't ate anything since morning?" He asked and I shook my head negatively.

I closed my eyes feeling dizzy again and I held his hands for support.

"Ms. Carter? Ms. Carter are you alright?" He asked with worry and I managed to just give him a nod.

I steadied myself and then only I noticed his hands on my arms.

Sangavi...

I mentally heard a voice calling my name making me to flinch away from Mr. Theller.

I composed myself and I adjusted my dress.

"Ms. Carter are you alright?" Mr. Theller tried to touch me again but stopped when I flinched away from his touch feeling disgusted.

He gave me a confused look and furrowed his eyebrows.

"I'm fine. Thank you" I manage to mutter and began to walk away.

"Let me drop you home Ms. Carter" he called but I replied a quite "No. Thank you it's alright" and dashed away from there.

I didn't like it when he touched me.

He is a womanizer. He changes girls with a new day like a worn out cloth. He is not good Sangavi. I scolded myself and took a Taxi back home.

***********************

I am independent and your words can't cage me.

"Ms. Carter bring me the account file Immediately" Mr. Theller spoke from the other line.

"Right away Sir" I said before the line got disconnected. I couldn't help the sarcasm the sneaked its way into my voice. Oh well!

I took the file which he asked me to bring and made my way towards his Cabin. I knocked on his door and went in after hearing his husky "Come in" voice.

"Sir, your file" I said as I put the file on his table.

He nodded and took the file opening it and started going through each page of the file.

"Go bring me a black coffee" he ordered with his usual glare. I pouted, well aware of his intent eyes on me, irritated by his lack of respect but gave up when I knew there was nothing that I can do about it so reluctantly i nodded my head before leaving his room.

I made my way towards the coffee machine and made his black coffee. I poured his coffee in the mug, wondering if I should add poison or salt to this coffee but decided against it as I still needed money and for that I needed an employer no matter how arrogant and cocky he can be. I made my way back to his cabin, taking a deep breath and asking God to bless me with the ability to tolerate his bull shit.

I entered his room after knocking, a habit of mine which started from the day I joined this Bank.

He was so engrossed in that file that he didn't even bothered looking up at me.

"Sir your coffee" I said offering him his mug.

"Hmm Keep it here" he said without even looking up at me. I nodded saying "Okay" and kept his coffee before him on his table.

Damn, I must say the way his eyes were narrowed like he was in deep concentration was making me hot. He looked so handsome and fierce. I couldn't help but stare even though it was so unprofessional and so unlike me. The way he bit his full rep lips, deep in thought was so fucking hot. What the hell was I thinking? He is my damn boss and here I am appreciating his sexiness and manliness. The way his muscles bulged under his every move. The shirt did nothing to hide the fact that this man had a delicious body. Oh god help me! This man knew how to infuriate me and find a way to get under my skin but still I couldn't help but be attracted to him. But that's all its going to be. A simple harmless attraction because someone as powerful and hot like him would never glance my way. Its a shame he had to be a jerk otherwise me and him would of gotten along just fine.

"Anything else do you want me to do Sir?" I asked and waited patiently for him to reply.

"No it's enough. You can go" he muttered still engrossed in his file.

"Okay Sir" I said and turned to leave. I was half way to the door but stopped when I heard him yelp.

I turned around immediately only to find him wincing due to the coffee spilt on his table.

"Sir!" I panicked running to him.

I took his hand with was burnt due to the hot coffee and carefully examined it. I found it red and already tender.

"Sir are you alright?" I asked him worriedly.

"Yeah I thi-" he began but I cut him off saying "Oh no! It burnt really bad".

Using the office phone I called the receptionist to bring me the first aid kit and to be quick. I dragged Mr. Theller to his attached bathroom and checked whether the water was cold from the tap.

When I found the water was cold I placed his burnt hand under the running cold water while I silently stood there wincing a little.

"You should be more careful Mr. Theller. Look what you have done" I began rambling, too worried to actually fully understand what I am doing. Touching a fucking womanizer, someone I should be disgusted by someone I am disgusted by but I cannot leave him to suffer from the pain no matter how much I hate him.

When the receptionist brought the first aid box to the room, being careful I aided his burnt hand applying ointment and told him to show the hand to a Physician.

All the while he kept quiet and stared silently at me, letting me do what I needed to do peacefully. Although I felt his heated stare on me, I didn't dare glance up at him because if I did, I knew it will definitely lead to an awkward situation. After finishing with his hand, I called the office sweeper to clean his coffee which was still spilt on his desk and on his floor. I managed to clean some of his files but found some of his papers already drenched.

"Oh no! This was an important paper" I muttered seeing a clients paper soaked.

"Don't worry about that I can handle it" he muttered coming near me.

"And Thanks for this" he said lifting his aided hand up to show me.

I smiled genuinely at him and watched as his eyes grew wide like a saucer. I saw an unknown emotion flicker inside his eyes which made my smile vanish almost as immediately it came.

"Sir is everything alright?" I asked when he kept quiet staring mutely at me. It made me feel so weird and uncomfortable.

"Uh yeah. Yes everything is fine you can leave now" he stuttered a little, averting his gaze from my face and went towards the glass window leaning against it sideways.

"Weird" I thought and wondered what got into his head this time which changed his demeanor.

Nevertheless, I shrugged my shoulders and left his room.

I went back to my cabin and sat on my chair exhaling a tired breath. Today had been a very long day and his mood swings were becoming very irritating.

I checked the time to find its already time for lunch break. I sighed, closing my laptop and stood up glancing at my attire once again and adjusted my glasses.

It's been two weeks since I joined Theller's International and I have made quiet some good friends in here.

I walked towards the canteen to find my colleagues already eating and chatting with their friends.

I ordered myself a grilled sandwich and Orange juice and went to sit with them.

"Hey Sang why are you late today?" Jade one of my colleague asked.

"Oh it's nothing I was busy" I said taking a bite from my sandwich.

"Oh" she muttered and continued eating her Chinese.

Jade was a redhead girl with slim figure but she was three to four inch smaller than me. She had this charming smile which would make every guy fall on her feet but unfortunately she was married and her husband Nathan Mason also worked as the accountant Manager in our Bank.

"Hey we are planning on going to this new club out of the city this Saturday. Do you want to join?" Nicholas one of my colleague asked excitedly.

"Club?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

"Yup club. It's a new club and as we all are tired working everyday we have decided to give it a little visit this Saturday" Chloe chirped clapping her hands.

Chloe was also a Secretary but to Mr. Lanchaster who was from the HR department. Chloe was a blonde with chubby figure but she was quiet tall compared to normal girls.

"Okay? So who actually is coming?" I asked sipping from my juice.

"Me" Chloe said excited.

"Me too and Nathan too" Jade said eating her Chinese.

"Count me in too" Margaret said raising her hands.

"Me too" Nicholas chirped like a girl.

"And me too" a voice said from behind me and all of our heads turned behind me to find Jack Winston smirking down at us.

Jack Winston was a bulky guy with grey eyes. He stood tall with 6 feet height and he worked under the HR department. He was famous as a player in Theller's International and while most of the girls swooned over his looks, the girls in our group totally disliked him.

I even came to hear that Margaret and him had a thing few years ago but now Margaret hated his very presence.

"You are not in our group and nobody asked you to come with us so leave" Margaret said glaring at him. Her blue eyes filled with hatred and her demeanor changed to cold all of a sudden.

"Relax sweetie you don't need to be rude" Mike, Margaret's boyfriend said calmly holding her hand.

Mike was always a calm and reserved man. I never saw him angry once and there was this smile always on his face which would melt anybody's anger.

"Yeah you don't need to be rude" Jack said sweetly who was of course fake glaring at Mike.

"He can join us right?" Jade asked raising her eyebrows. Though she hated Jack's gut she believes that everyone deserves a second chance regardless of how reckless they had once been. She has always thought that if given a chance, jack will turn out to be nice guy, but me, I disagreed with that bull shit. A jerk will always remain a jerk and a player will always remain a player. My new mantra. This is what helps me to keep Mr Theller in my forbidden and not allowed list no matter how enticing he is.

"Fine!" Margaret muttered and leaned against Mike.

"Great so see you all Saturday night" Jack smirked and eyed me, his eyes lingering on me far more than necessary making me uncomfortable.

I cleared my throat which caused him to break out of his daydream and finally he walked away shoving his hands into his pant pockets with a smirk plastered on his face.

"What's with that smirk?" Chloe asked and I shrugged my shoulders.

"So are you coming?" Mike asked me and glanced at him giving him a small smile " Sure why not?" and with that I continued eating my food enjoying my remaining little break.
