It was you...

**ROMANY**

Just as I peeled around the corner to my hallway I thought I heard a door slam. *No... Alex wouldn't be coming after me. He doesn't care about anyone other than himself.* But then I heard footsteps. Footsteps other than my own *and* much faster than my own. I super sprinted the rest of the way to my room and dove inside just as I thought I heard someone call my name. Slamming the door behind myself I flipped the dead bolt as fast as I could. My chest heaved as I stood there, out of breath from my mad dash back to safety. *Why oh why didn't I knock like a normal person? I'll never get the image of Stella's anorexic body out of my head now!*

Gross! I mean I was disgusted. I could not believe I let that bastard put his dick in me. *It felt good though... really, really good.* "Enough!" I hissed to myself, tensing as something thudded against my door. "Romany!" Alex's voice sounded. "Open the door."

I shook my head, knowing that he couldn't see me, but not giving a damn.

"Romany! It's not what you think," he grumbled.

I laughed, I couldn't help myself. *I think I just saw you boning your assistant.* "It's not what I think that's bothering me, it's what I saw," I snapped before I could help myself.

"I am your boss!" he shouted, pounding a fist on the door. "Now open this fucking door."

"Nope! I have to flush my eyes out. Please just go away!" I snarled.

"Fine," he said quietly. "Don't open it then."
