Chapter 9 (Rachel's POV)
Expression on Mason's face when I told him I got an interview in his company was priceless.I wish I had my phone with me so I could take a picture.
Anytime I would feel bad or had a bad day I would just look at that picture and my day would be brighter.
But either way. I won't forget that expression any time soon.
But what bugged me was the fact I couldn't remember sending an email to a company with that name.
Ah who cares.
I probably wasn't paying enough attention.
But what matters is the fact I got the interview.
Now I only have to do good tomorrow and cross my fingers that they give me a chance.
As long as they didn't ask about my previous work experiences I was safe.
But first things first.
I had to find something suitable to wear to my interview.
I was halfway through everything I had in the closet when I suddenly came across the perfect combination.
It was my best pair of jeans that fit my body like a glove.
It was plain jeans, but when you take a closer look you can see there was a pattern made from roses.
They were simple, but in the right combination they still made me look professional.
SomI put them on the bed and searched through my racks.
Finding a deep red blazer that was a perfect match.
Underneath a simple white blouse and to finish my look I had a perfect pair of high heels.
Deep red with a rose at the end. They were a gift from Becky a few years ago.
And now I will finally make use of them.
Now that everything's in place for tomorrow it's time for a shower and some rest.
Wish me luck.
*******************I was up 4 hours before I had to be in the Code hack.So I took my time with getting ready.
My nerves were on high alert and the amount of coffee I drank didn't help at all.
Mason was long gone, so I had the whole house to myself.
I put my music on speakers and let the music fill my mind.
It was my way of relaxing and let me tell you.
There was no better therapy than listening to music.
It helped me express my emotions many times.
Today my playlist had Ava max, Ed sheeran, Shawn Mendes, Imagine dragons and One republic on it. And the most important song of today, you could call it today's theme song, I believe I can fly.
Once I was ready and my nerves calmed down a little, I plugged in my earphones and continued listening to my music right where I left it.
I locked the door behind me and since it was pretty nice weather I decided to walk.
Once I reached the front door of Code hack I took one last deep breath and walked inside.
The girl at the front desk was really nice and escorted me to the waiting room.
She told me someone would come and get me soon.
So I was sitting there waiting for that someone to arrive.
I didn't have to wait for long though. Probably only 5minutes.
"Miss Bigsby?"
I lifted my head only to be met with a pair of brown eyes.
No, not brown, honey. That's a better word to describe that color.
The man in front of me was tall, like really tall. Once I stood up, I reached only to his armpits, and I am not a small woman, especially when wearing high heels.
He was wearing a black three piece suit and a funny tie finished his look.
It was a neon blue tie with red hearts on it.
It was funny but somehow suited him.
His hair was shaved on the side and longer on top and it was a light brown color.
He had a 5 o'clock shadow on his face but it worked for him.
All in all he looked really good.
And now I had to ask myself.
What kind of company am I stepping into?
Judging by this guy and Mason, it looked like it was full of hot specimens.
Oh yeah the front desk girl was hot as fuck also.
I am a woman and I am not ashamed of admitting it.
But right now this semi God in front of me watched me with a mix of curiosity and amazement.
Then it struck me.
I didn't say a word.
Somi quickly stood up and offered him my hand.
"Yes, I am so sorry I was just lost in my thoughts. My name is Racheal Bigsby."
"Nice to meet you Miss Bigsby. My name is Aron Mates. I am the CEOof Code hack. Would you follow me to my office so we can start the interview?"
"Nice to meet you too. Of course Sir. Lead the way."
He laughed wholeheartedly at my response and I must admit, I already liked the guy.
"None of that nonsense please. You can call me Aron. We are on a first name basis in our company so I hope it's ok if I call you Rachel as well?"
My smile was genuine and full of excitement. I just hope I get a chance to work here.
I nodded my head and we started walking towards his office.
On the way we got stopped a few times, but I didn't mind it because I got a front row to witness how people were treated in this company.
And I was surprised. In a good way.
Even though he was on his way to an interview, he took his time for every person who approached him.
After almost half an hour we finally reached his office.
But when I went to close the door behind me he surprised me again by telling me to leave it open.
"I am sorry it took us so long to reach our destination. Now let's start shall we. Tell me about yourself."
"No problem. Honestly it was good for me to see how people were treated in this company and I am pleasantly surprised. Well about me. I finished my business degree, but I enjoy the position of secretary. I love working with people and papers so this kind of work is perfect for me. I am organized and can sometimes be almost in OCD mode but it's tolerable. That's what I've been told at least. I worked in this position already so I know what to expect, even though my former employment was in a law office."
As soon as the words were out I wanted to take them back.
Damn Rachel you are such an idiot, sabotaging yourself.
But Aron just chuckled.
"Well the work is pretty much the same here as it was there I suppose. Picking up the phone, scheduling meetings, taking care of my work time table and so on. I think you get what I mean. Your former boss also wrote you an amazing letter of recommendation, so if you want it, the position is yours. You could start working tomorrow already."
I looked at him in disbelief.
Amazing letter of recommendation?
In that case it sure wasn't written or sent from my former boss office.
But I would think about this later.
"Yes! Oh my God yes, yes. I will be here tomorrow, at 6am, ready to start."
He laughed again at my enthusiasm.
"Nah, 8am would be ok. You should stop in the HR on the third floor first. They will give you the pass for our building and a contract will be ready for you so you can check it. And if you agree with everything you sign it, if not you just tell our HR team what changes would you suggest and we can try to find a compromise. Sounds good?"
"Sounds amazing. Thank you for the opportunity, you won't regret it."
We said goodbye and I left the building with a bounce in my step.
Luck was finally turning around
After it I can't remember anything, because darkness enveloped me.Chapter 10 (Mason's POV) I was on my way home from work. It's been a day full of surprises for sure. First, some asshole tried to hack into our system so we had to block his attempts, the coffee machine broke down, so we had to make it the old fashioned way. But surprise, surprise. There was no coffee in the whole building because no one made it anymore. It's been years since someone last used the kitchen we had in our company. But the good thing is I survived and was done for today. Now my head was full of thoughts about Rachel. How did her interview go? I wasn't sure if I wanted it to go good or bad. On one hand, I really wanted her to get a job. Not just because she would move out but because she deserved it. Her last boss was a total asshole that only saw her outside but didn't care about her smartness or drive. But on the other hand I wanted her to fail. After all she had an interview in my company, and if she got the job, that would mean, when she moves out, I woul
Chapter 11 (Rachel's POV)When I came home earlier I was so full of positive energy that I had to do something with it.So I cleaned the house, cooked dinner, and made dessert.I did it all in a blink of an eye.Now that I was waiting for Mason to emerge from the shower I had nothing to do, somI thought to myself, why not.Let's get a bit dolled up.I hurried into my room and for the second time in a span of 24 hours started digging in my closet for something nice.For a change, today's evening was pretty warm.So I decided on a nice blue summer dress with green stripes.It reached my mid thighs, was strapless and allowed almost no cleavage to be displayed. But the back was another story. It had a low cut that reached almost all the way down to my ass.Now this I call fancy but still casually.I paired my outfit with nice blue flats and fixed my make up a little.Now I guess I was ready.I came out of my room and spotted Mason right away.He was bent over the kitchen counter trying
Chapter 12 (Mason's POV)I woke up the same as I did in the past few days.But something was definitely different.There was a warm body wrapped around me.I didn't want to open my eyes and ruin the spell or dreams I was having.Whatever it was, it felt too good to be over.At the moment I had no idea who it was, I just hoped it was Rachel like in all of my dreams lately.One leg was wrapped around my waist and so was one arm. But the problem is that her leg was pressed directly onto my crotch. Her middle was pressed into my side but I could feel her warmness and if my imagination didn't lie to me there was also some wetness.I tried to move but each movement caused friction and made my hard on even more painful.So instead of moving my body I only moved my hand.At the moment it was resting on her ass so I decided to do some exploring first.In none of my dreams so far I had a chance to explore her body, so I used today's dream while I could.I moved first upwards, moving first to he
Chapter 13 (Rachel's POV)Well good morning for the second time in one day.I must admit the first time I woke up was more pleasant though.Feeling Mason's hands all over my body felt amazing.I have no idea what came over me, but I didn't want to push him away. It was probably because I was just to horny at this point.And since our rooms were situated across from each other there was no way I would even try to pleasure myself.This house had thin walls!So here I was, finally at least a bit satisfied and in a good mood.I remembered what day it was today and why my alarm clock woke me up.As I looked at it, it was already 7am, so I got showered and ready as fast as I could. To my surprise it only took me 15minutes.Since Mason escaped my room after our morning sexy session I went in search of him.Since we are going to the same company, we could go together.But as I came to the kitchen I was surprised to find it empty.Weird.I tried calling him but got no answer.What the hell?
Chapter 14 (Mason's POV)Do you ever wonder how it is to be locked up?Well let me tell you from my experience it's no fun at all.It has only been three days but I am getting bored already.All I want to do is go out and talk toRachel, admit everything to her and just accept my punishment.But I guess I'm still too much of a coward.So I wait every night for her to retreat to her room and once I am sure she is asleep, then I move to restock my food and energy supplies.Since I don't have much to do in my room, either I work out, play games, or I am cleaning.Yes, I am cleaning my room.So what? Not every guy is a pig when it comes to his room.But it is starting to get boring.I think even my best friend is getting sick of me moaning about the situation.But who can blame him.Since I have nothing to do, I bug him all day long.And I mean it literally.I check in with him in the morning, to see what he is up to, if there is anything new in our company and if our game is progressing
Chapter 15 (Rachel's POV)I was just about to go back to my room when I heard Mason and Brandon talking.So I eavesdropped a little."I know you said your roomie is hot, but you didn't say she was Rachel. Because let's be honest she is drop dead gorgeous." I had to chuckle at Brandon. He was so adorable sometimes. But you could see it in his eyes, he loved his wife. Sure he would give you a once over but that was it. And let me tell you, finding a guy like him was a real lottery ticket these days.Someone who only had eyes for you and no matter how hard it became he stood by your side proudly.I hope his kind is not extinct already.I need a man like that in my life."Don't make me tell on you to your wife Brandon.""Asshole. I didn't mean it like that. You know I love my wife, but it doesn't mean I am blind. But I will tell you this only once. Get things right with her. She is a good woman."See? Told you he loves his wife and her alone.But one thing didn't want to leave my mind.So
Chapter 16 (Mason's POV)Guess what? I am back to hiding.What Rachel said before was a bit too much for me to handle.I know those were the rumors back in high school and later college.But it was a far cry from the truth.But one rumor was enough to make me the biggest playboy around.I didn't even have to talk to a girl and rumors started that I slept with her.And since back then I was a skinny boy I just tried to ignore everything as best as I could.I had no idea those rumors would haunt me up to this day.But I thought Rachel knew better than to rely on rumors.I also thought we started to at least tolerate each other, but looks like I was wrong once again.When will I learn?Suddenly there was a knock on my door.There was no question who it was, but I did wonder what she wanted, so I told her to come in.I didn't move from my position on the bed though.She opened the door and stepped inside.I could see she was nervous from the way she wriggled her hands and avoided eye cont
Chapter 17 (Rachel's POV)What in the all loving hell is wrong with me?I was supposed to hate Mason.But when I told that to him, it felt like I was choking out a lie.Also when he told me he hates me too, it stung.I don't know what I was expecting since I told him I hate him.Ah enough with these thoughts.I pulled out my phone and shot a quick message to Becky.Bitch1: hey babes. The situation is all settled. We talked and he told me about Coleen. I can't believe you didn't tell me in all these years!! You owe me a huge coffee once you're back in town. Love you.It took her only a minute when the dots already started bouncing on my screen, signaling she was typing a response.Bitch2: yeah, yeah. You will get your coffee. But I don't feel bad because first: it wasn't my story to tell, and second: for fucks sake woman you never got along! But I am glad you worked out your problems. After all, you still need to survive at least until your first paycheck. And unfortunately for you I l
