“When do we look for another PR director?” I asked him. “I mean, who is going to look through all those resumes?”

He shrugged in response. “I don’t know. I can delegate it, but I think I want to see for myself. Maybe after the meeting with Madeline”

I scoffed. “I had other plans after the meeting. Preferably with Madeline.” I smirked. He tried to hold a straight face but he smiled too.

“Do you think she likes us?” I asked him with a heavy sigh.

“You sound like a co-ed.”

“You know what I mean,” I rolled my eyes. “What does she think of us? Is she just having fun? We’re both falling for her.” I arched my brow, and I knew I was right.

“I don’t know. Maybe that’s a conversation we should have. Right now we have to get going.”

He stood up and tried to smooth his shirt out. I was surprised he wasn’t even in a full suit. He always looked so hard and serious. I was starting to think Madeline had an effect on him. She was doing the same to me too. Though I always had an easy-going personality, she was making me see beyond a hook up or one night in bed. I wanted more with her, with us.

It wasn’t conventional to some people but I knew it was just what I wanted. But how would I even begin to tell her that? Surprise, surprise; I’m not good with emotions at all.

“Yeah, let’s go.”

I took what I needed, which was just my phone, and headed to the conference room with Logan. Except, Madeline wasn’t there. I saw Dan, the head of marketing with the presentation, but Madeline wasn’t there.

“Should we wait?” I asked Logan. He shrugged.

“Where is she?” Logan asked.

“I don’t know. But she shouldn’t be missing meetings.” I shook my head with a frown.

“Uh, should we reschedule?” Dan asked. He probably wanted to get home to his wife and kids. He was a classic family guy.

“Yeah. Fine.”

I stormed out and went into my office as Logan followed.

“I can’t believe she missed this meeting. Didn’t she know how important it was?” I paced around the room.

“Yeah, she did. I guess something could have come up.” Logan defended. My temper was a lot shorter than his, and so was my rational.

“Like what?” I tried not to shout, but I was pissed.

I don’t like when people miss meetings, or don’t call when or if in fact, something does come up. This was the second time she ran off and disappeared.

“It’s finals week. Students get really stressed during this time.”

I rolled my eyes as I scoffed. “Bullshit. I’m sick of that. Lots of students have jobs and balance school.”

I groaned and sat on the couch, wringing my hands out. Logan sat down as well.

“Well, they may not be sleeping with both their bosses, too.” He said.

I sighed as it all shifted into place. Madeline had a lot on her plate, and we definitely added to that.

“Shit.” I breathed.

“Yeah…and we haven’t exactly been up and coming gentlemen.” Logan added. I nodded in agreement. “And we want to be, right?”

I scratched my jaw as I thought. Madeline was special, and she does mean something to me. To us.

“Right.”
