Steve took a seat at the kitchen ind next to Jeff and did the same thing as his boss: observed twodies.


    Jeff was admiring how JoAnna can make friends so easily. JoAnna and Bridgette interacted like long term friends.


    Coffee was done, and girls sat at the kitchen ind with Jeff and Steve.


    "Sorry again, Steve, for spoiling your Saturday morning." JoAnna was apologizing. "It must be hard to be a personal assistant."


    "You should think of getting one for yourself." Jeff advised JoAnna. "If you get her to take on the position, we will save on housing cost." Jeff gestured toward Bridgette with a sly smile.


    Bridgette was surprised to hear this and looked at Steve who had a huge smile on his face. "Will she get an office next to mine?"


    Jeff looked at Steve for a second with a frown and then turned to JoAnna, shing a smile. "Only if my wife epts a position in thepany."


    "At White corp.? What would I do there?" JoAnnaughed lightly. She was sure that Jeff is making things up. She only sees people in suits there, how can she, from medical field join there? Unless he creates some position for her... which would not be strange considering that he is the big boss.


    "Actually, Miss Hill..." Steve exined. "At White corp. there is a department which focuses on advancements in medical field. With your background, you will fit there well." In Steve''s mind, JoAnna was already at White corp., and Bridgette was with him as JoAnna''s assistant, maybe two of them could even share an office. He would like to share the office with Bridgette.


    Seeing JoAnna''s confused expression, Jeff added. "You can take on any role you want. I would even give you my job if you want it... We can match out schedules, carpool to work, have every lunch together..."


    "Jeff... Jeff..." JoAnna tried to stop him from talking, but Jeff was too much into it.


    Jeff was still going on, "There would be no odd shifts, and every weekend..."


    JoAnna pressed her lips on his, and he stopped talking.


    When Jeff felt her soft lips, without thinking he pulled her close to him, and JoAnna ended up sitting in hisp. Instead of stopping the kiss (because they havepany), Jeff deepened the kiss. He never cared about anyone else, except for JoAnna. JoAnna was lost in the feeling of their tongues touching and teasing each other for some time, until she heard Steve and Bridgette nervously shifting in their seats while trying to look away from the steamy scene.


    JoAnna inched away from Jeff. "We are not alone." She caressed his cheek and gave him few quick kisses to stop him from saying that he does not care about thepany. She knows that he is perfectly capable of making other people feel as unnecessary extras.


    Jeff was frustrated because these two people are there. When he heard JoAnna saying that they are not alone, and she stopped kissing him because of that, he wanted to tell Steve to take his girlfriend and scram. But JoAnna stopped him with few quick kisses.


    "You need to stop doing that..." JoAnna got out of Jeff''sp and went back to her chair.


    "Do what?"


    "nning so much in advance before asking me what I think about it." JoAnna was careful not to say anything harsh to Jeff in front of Steve and Bridgette.


    But Jeff didn''t share JoAnna''s concern. He openly continued, like they are alone. "I love you, and I want to be with you as much as I can. I''m not expecting you to ept the job right now... but I hope you will consider it." He pulled JoAnna back into hisp. "It would be amazing if we work at the same ce."


    JoAnna realized that he already nned this. "It seems this is not new for you... since when are you thinking of getting me into White corp.?"


    "Since you came to this apartment, I''m thinking of our house, how to spend more time with you, how to get you to marry..."


    JoAnna put her hand over Jeff''s mouth. "OK. OK. I get it... you are a man full of ns."


    Jeff looked at Bridgette, "Think about it, are you interested in a career change?"


    Bridgette nervously shifted in her chair, "I used to be an assistant beforeing to White corp."


    Steve perked up again, "Excellent! The hours are flexible, and we could spend more time together."


    Seeing that Steve is making ns for Bridgette, JoAnna looked at Jeff andughed, "It seems that you are not the only one thinking for two."


    Steve realized their position and stood up facing Bridgette. "We should go. They have ns and need to finish packing."


    As soon as the door closed behind Steve and Bridgette, Jeff pulled JoAnna into a tight embrace. "We don''t havepany any more..." He kissed back of her ear.


    JoAnna felt her legs turning into a jelly as Jeff''s tongue circled her earlobe. She wrapped her arms around Jeff''s neck. "I need to finish packing..."


    "Mrs. White, the ne will wait for us... " He lifted her up and carried to the bedroom.


    ...


    Steve and Bridgette got out of the elevator.


    Bridgette squinted her eyes, checked elevator and looked at Steve. "We went only one floor down."


    "This is where I live...es with the job." Steve exined and took her hand while leading her down the hallway.


    ''Save on housing cost!'' Jeff''s words reyed in Bridgette''s mind. ''Does Boss mean that I will move in with Steve if I work for JoAnna??!''


    Steve opened the door and ushered Bridgette in. "It''s not the penthouse, but the view is still quite nice." Steve closed the door behind him.


    Bridgette found herself in a spacious three-bedroom apartment. "Wow! This is nice. Very nice. So much space!" Compared to her one-bedroom apartment, this one isrge like an airport.


    Steve smiled, "I''m happy you like it..." He looked at Bridgette seriously. "You should consider taking the assistant''s job for Miss Hill."


    "She didn''t seem to be interested in getting an assistant." Bridgette observed JoAnna urately.


    Steve shook his head. "You don''t know the Boss... He will not say anything without a reason. They will get married soon, and she will be Mrs. White. I don''t think she still understands how much poweres with that name. She will need an assistant. Also, she seems to be a nice person."


    Bridgette agreed with Steve, "Yes, I got an impression that she is nice... but what about my career? I''m doing good at White corp. now. I''m not sure it''s worth throwing all that just for an assistant''s job."


    Steve was offended, ''JUST ASSISTANT?''. He did his best to look calm. "Besides benefits, and flexible schedule, your sry will be much higher."


    Bridgette was surprised, "How do you know my sry?"


    Steve looked at her meaningfully. "I am Big Boss''s assistant. I know many things."


    Steve faced Bridgette and yed with a strand of her hair. "I''m not forcing you to take it. I only want you to keep an open mind. I''m sure two of them will travel together in the future. If you take the job, we can apany them together. Wouldn''t that be nice?"


    Bridgette smiled, "Yes, it would be."


    Overwhelming silence surrounded them. Bridgette looked up at Steve and faced his intense gaze. She felt her cheeks burning, and she was aware that she is blushing. Probably her whole face was red. She took one shallow breath as Steve''s lips crashed into hers. Her hands moved around his neck and pulled him in for a deep kiss.


    In next second, Bridgette felt like floating. ''Wait... I''m not floating... he is carrying me....''
