"I mean, can I?" She wrinkles her nose.

"Yeah. Why wouldn't you be able to tell me?"

"I was applying for a reality dating TV show," she shrugs and licks her lips.

I frown slightly. "You what?"

"I was applying for a reality dating TV show. Love is Blind. Have you heard of it?"

"You mentioned it to me before, but I thought that was because you wanted to watch it, not because you wanted to be on it."

“Well, you know." She clears her throat and looks away. I can feel myself getting angry.

"Okay, well good luck," I say, though I don't really mean it.

"Thanks." She blinks as she looks up at me. "So is there any work that you need me to do? Because I was actually hoping that I?—"

"Yes, I have a lot of work that I need you to do. Did you finish transcribing the recordings that I gave you this morning?"

"No, but you said you needed them by Friday and it's only Tuesday and?—"

"Well, I need them by the end of the day."

"But there's five hours of transcription for me to do."

"And is that a problem?"

She lets out a huge sigh. "No, I guess not."

"Good. If you can get them done by five PM today, I would be grateful."

"But you said Friday when you handed it to me and now you're?—"

"I know you're not talking to me like that."

"What?" Her jaw drops.

"I'm your boss and I demand respect." I know I sound like a jerk, but I just can’t stop myself.

She narrows her eyes and takes a deep breath. I can't keep my eyes off of her lips. She looks so sexy when she's mad.

"You're such a freaking jerk," she mutters under her breath.

"Sorry, what did you say?"

"Nothing, Mr. Chase."

"Oh, I didn't think so. Also, by the way, you've got to let me know the plan for Saturday."

"Really?" She looks indignant. "You're going to bring up Saturday now?"

"Why wouldn't I? I need to know what to wear and what time to be ready, right?"

"Really, after you just told me to spend the rest of my afternoon transcribing recordings that you told me weren't due till Friday, you're going to now ask me about Saturday?"

"The two are not related, are they?" I grin. "Oh, and I’ll have a credit card for you by the end of the week."

"What are you talking about?"
