《My famous boss (gxg)》Chapter 10

Did you just politely call me short?" I ask
"Maybe I did" she says flashing me one of her smiles.
"Thats brave of you" I tell her in a threatening tone. I don't like being called short. She shrugs her shoulders and turns to leave.
"Help yourself, I'll be sitting in the vanity doing my hair." she says and leaves.
This closet is huge. It is the size of my first studio apartment. I don't know how she can afford all of this. I bet she is from a wealthy family and uses her family's money for everything. Either that or she has a side hustle. When I think of it she never talks about her family. Like ever. She only mentioned Maria a few times and thats it. I asked Maria why she was being so secretive and she told me that there is nothing to be worried about.
Next week I am going to introduce Rose to her. The premiere to the upcoming movie is going to be held in LA and I will need her there more than ever. She already knows that is coming up. I bet she already knows what she'll wear and everything. I hope Rose likes her. She'll be spending time with her and I want my daughter to feel safe with whoever she is with. I don't want to worry about that too. It seems like she would be cold with kids. She is nice but very reserved. She reminds me of Adam Driver. They share some virtues and they both talk when asked a question. At least with me she's like that.
I find myself some jeans and a beatles shirt. I woke black converse here so I can thankfully match it with this. When I put on the jeans they were a little long on me. I had to cuff the jeans and then put on my sneakers again.
I found a pair of sunglasses and I paired them with the outfit. I didn't want to go overboard since we're only going shopping. I step out of the closet and there she is. Her posture perfect, sitting down with a straightener in her hand. She is so fascinating to me. I sit down on her bed and watch her get ready. She looks at me through the mirror and smiles. That leaves me feeling some type of way. Why am I acting like this is my first time with a gorgeous human in the room? Maybe because I'm in her room, that smells like her. I can only imagine what her sheets smell like. I would be lying if I said I don't like wearing her clothes. The're all a bit big on me but that is what makes them comfortable. I remember that one day when she gave me her shirt. I kept that shirt on a chair until you couldn't smell her perfume anymore. It smelled amazing.
The thing about Lena is that she does everything with care. Even this job. She makes me feel like she wants to do this. No matter what I say to her she doesn't get angry or impatient. She stays calm and answers calmly. The only time I saw her get close to worked up was when she fought with Kate. She even makes me eat at least two times a day. Which I don't complain about anymore, considering she can make any basic dish taste like it came out of a five star restaurant. She carries herself with grace and even on the day of meeting her she didn't overreact or make a fuss about who I was. I was grateful for that. She made me feel ordinary, which is hard to do because I get recognized with just doing basic chores.

She is basically a pandoras box. The things she pulled last night were the last thing I expected from her. Of course she has muscles and amazing abs but I never thought she could beat someone up. Let alone knock them out. From last night I know I can leave my Rose with her. I know she will keep her safe. I just have to get her to meet her at least a day before we go. The premiere is on Wednesday. I need to be there Wednesday morning to get ready.
"Hey where did you go?" she says crouching in front of me
"Oh sorry I was just thinking about some things." I tell her. I was thinking about her. About how amazing and intriguing she is.
"We'll leave in thirty minutes. If you want accessories or perfume the're in one of the drawers." she says and gets up. I nod and head to her vanity again.She just gave me an opportunity to spray her perfume on my body. Don't mind if I do!
I spray some on me and when she leaves the room I also spray my hairband. I want to be able to smell it even later. I didn't plan on putting any accessories but I was curious what she had to offer. I open one of the bigger drawers and I was starstruck. This woman had a whole drawer stacked with different types of watches. I take some to observe and underneath that one I see a silver rolex. Taking them out I see more rolexes in their boxes just sitting there. They must be fakes. I mean how is anyone able to afford something like this.
"Impressive right?"
I jump at that and turn to my left to see Lena standing next to me.
"The one you're holding is a classic. Worth around 100k. The green one is a bit cheaper than that one but it is more precious to me. I got it as a gift."
A gift? Who in the world is this woman hanging out with that they give her a fucking rolex? Seems shady to me
"Half of these are gifts, and the rest I bought myself. I had them for some time now." she says
"You seem to fascinated with fashion I see" I finally speak up.
"Not really. I like it, yes. But I enjoy books the most. Thats why half of my house is one giant library." she says putting the watches away.
What she saying is true. I haven't seen a room in her place without a bookshelf. She has all kinds and all different types of genres. I can't wait to check it all out. I want to know as much as possible about her. She doesn't let me know a lot. Why is that?
She opens another drawer and in it are necklaces. She takes a golden one
"May I?" she asks. I nod and remove my hair. She grazes my skin and I can feel goosebumps forming on the back on my neck. I look into the mirror in front of me and see a golden rose on a small golden chain on me. She clasps the necklace and return my hair where it was. She puts her hands on my shoulders and looks at me through the mirror.
"You mentioned having a daughter?"
I think my insides just melted. I nod and she smiles.
"Come on, we should get going" she says and grabs her keys.
We get inside the car and she puts on her spotify playlist. She us one of the weirdest people I've ever met and I'm not mad about it. She listens to every genre and makes playlists for certain moods. She never skips songs and hums while we drive. One time a song of mine came up and she went red in a matter of seconds. It was too cute. I filmed it and sent it to Chris. He laughed his ass off and told me that she adores me. I doubt that. She doesn't trust me to even talk about herself on her own. She is so guarded with her walls that you can't even get to her.

We arrive to Maria's house and wait for her. She called her and I didn't mind that she put her on speaker.
"Hey honey, are you already here?" she asks
"Yes, we've just pulled up. No need to hurry though remember what happened last time?" she laughs at that
"We do not want that" Maria says and laughs
I am not in the loop but it is nice to see Lena laughing so genuinly. She hangs up and I sit there quietly. I turn to the door to see Maria in some slacks with a simple brown shirt. She has heels on her feet and she walks slowly to the car. When she opens the back door Lena speaks up again.
"Uber for Maria?"
Maria laughs at that and takes off her sunglasses. She comes closer and kisses Lena's and mine cheek. Which surprises me considering Lena doesn't hug. Or maybe she just doesn't hug me?
"How are you darling?" Maria asks Lena
"I'm doing alright" she says
"Are you sure? I know thats your favourite thing to lie about." Maria says
"I'm good, why wouldn't I be?" Lena says turning on the car again.
"I don't know you haven't reached out in days. I thought something happened" she says
"That would be my fault Maria. We had a busy schedule this past week" I say
"Oh, alright. How is working for Scarlett ?" she asks Lena, in front of me.
"It's great, it is not something I expected. I spend a lot of time with Ms Johansson and-
"Does that annoy you Scarlett. I know I hated it for a very long time" she says cutting Lena off
"I was saying something." Lena says taking a right turn.
"What were you referring to Maria?" I ask completely confused.
"Well the 'Ms' part. It makes me feel like a fucking dinosaur when I am standing next to her." she says
"It is out of respect" Lena interrupts
"I respect a lot of people I don't call them 'ms' or 'mr'." Maria says
"Well that sounds like a you problem." Lena says and laughs.
I don't answer her question. In all honesty it does bother me. It just proves that she doesn't want to have anything with me besides work. All I want to hear from her is my name. She says it sometimes but with Ms in front of it. Just ruins it all. I guess she doesn't want that with me. She calls Maria by her name and she lets her kiss her cheek. They have a very interesting relationship. I've never seen Lena interact with anyone like this. She speaks so freely and acts carefree. While she's with me she is in her own bubble away from everyone and everything.
We arrive to the mall and Lena tells us to get out of the car and wait for her while she parks. She found a spot but has to parallel park. I've never seen anyone in my life park that fast. My face must have given me away because I could hear Maria chuckle next to me.
"I reacted the same way when I first saw it. " she says
"She is full of surprises" I say
"Wait until you spend a little more time with her" she responds
Before I could say anything back. Lena approaches us adjusting her bag over her shoulders. She makes everything look cool. Her style is so versatile that I never know what to expect from her. We walk inside and Lena puts on sunglasses. I do the same and we look around a bit. The two of them act as if they are telepathically conversing right in front of me. We stop in front of Gucci and just with a raise of Lena's eyebrows Maria nods and we walk inside. It is crazy to even look at that. They must have been a thing at some point.
We look around a bit and we all split up. I see Lena go to the shoes isle and I go to see some handbags. I didn"t pay attention where Maria went. Like I care. I found this gorgeous white bag. It was so cute and chic. But when I looked at the price I simply out it away. It is too much and I don't like spending that much money on clothes or handbags. I don't find anything else so I decide to look for Lena.She is trying on some black boots. They look pretty ordinary nothing too flashy.
"Ms Adams I found the size you were looking for" says a gucci worker giving Lena a shoe box.
"Thank you Ashley you're a doll" she smiles at her and the worker leaves.
She knows her first name so she is probably a regular here. Which awakens a few more questions in my head. She takes out the shoes and they are boots again. Black again but they have a snake detail on the side. They also have a snake on the bottom. They look very cool. She puts them on and looks like a kid in a candy store. She takes them off and carefully puts them back into the box.
"Lets put the box on the register and find Maria, shall we" she says and takes her box and leaves it there. I guess she's not getting them after all.
We find Maria in the dress section holding 5 hangers in her hand. She sees us coming and rushes to Lena. She hands her the dresses and they both hurry to the dressing rooms. I follow along to see this.
"Hand me the one you think would look best on me." Maria says and leaves the two of us in front of her dressing room doors. Lena looks through and takes a green silky dress
"Here you go Maria" she hands her the dress opening her door.
"Thank you darling" Maria says
"How did you know which one to pick?" I ask Lena whispering so Maria can't hear us.
"She looks best in green" She says looking at her phone.
"Lena can you help me zip this dress. My boobs keep falling out when I try" Maria says through the door.
"Sure, just open the door and I'll zip it right up" she says casually
Maria opens the door and just casually shows us her whole back while she's holding the dress at the front. Lena doesn't seem moved by it at all. She just steps in front putting her phone into her back pocket. As Lena grazes her back gently I feel a pang in my stomach. I just get irritated in a matter of seconds. She finally lets go of Maria and Maria steps out following her. The dress hugs her curves and makes it seem like it was made just for her.
"You won't me able to wear a bra underneath but we can get some nip covers in case it gets cold" Lena says adjusting her dress in the front.
"What do you two think?" Maria says giving us a twirl
"You look stunning Maria" I finally speak up
"You really think so?" she asks
"Of course the dress really suits you"
"Pair the dress with some red bottoms and done. I can give you that antique gucci watch to go with the dress" Lena says admiring her.
"You'd give that to me?" Maria says tears in her eyes
"Ah ah ah I meant borrow. You know how much that watch means to me" Lena says
"I know darling, I know" she says and rubs Lena's shoulder. The mood in the room deflating by the minute.
"Is anyone hungry?"
