Kat sat at her desk and huffed loudly she couldn't believe the morning she had already, she pulled out her calender and her pen from her purse and set the purse in the cubby hole under her desk, she fixed her hair the best she could, and re applied her lipstick god she needed a vacation she had just put on her headset and logged into her computer when she was tapped on the shoulder and jumped in her chair, “hey calm down it's just me.” Morgan put her hands up and smiled, kat let out a relieved sigh and put her hand over her heart “sorry with the morning I'm having I'm just a little jumpy.” morgan sat on the edge of kat’s desk “i get it but hey you made it here and werent as late as i expected i'm honestly impressed, how did you do it?” Kat blushed a little and looked down “there was this guy uhm well it's a long story but he gave me a ride here and it was amazing and kinda scary at the same time.” morgan grinned widely “oooo a guy huh?” she wiggled her eyebrows suggestively “was he hot? Wait why didn't you take your car? Nevermind what did he look like, was he nice? Are you gonna see him again?” Kat's head spun from all the questions and she put her hand out “morg stop, one thing at a time can we talk about it later after work? Or on lunch I need to get started.” morgan nodded smililing “okay sounds good but i want all the details okay?” kat smiled a little and chuckled “yea okay morg you got it.” just as morgan was about to leave kats desk the elevator opened, and out stepped derek kat’s former fiance he wasn't very tall maybe 5 '5 at max and he had grown a little bit of a beer belly in the past 3 months his dark brown hair was slicked back and his green eyes glowed with hate as he looked at kat, he stepped from the elevator and adjusted his tie to his tailored italian suit, he took slow determined steps that radiated his arrogance towards her desk, kat turned her head down not wanting to look him in the eyes and morgan crossed her arms over her chest as she stared him down, derek stopped and glared at kat but spoke to morgan “good morning, how are the stats looking today?” morgan narrowed her eyes and ground her teeth “morning derek, and they are looking just fine.” derek snapped his head up to glare back at morgan and a tic started in his jaw at her tone towards him “well fine won't cut it, they need to be fantastic and when you speak to me you will show some respect, you may be our best analyst but i am still your boss and you will treat me as such understood.” kats face turned hot how dare he speak to morgan like that, back when they were together he was nothing but kind to her and always wanted to be called derek, but she knew not to speak she didn't need to turn the fury in his eyes to her being out of a job, morgan fluttered her eyes and sarcastly smiled at derek “yes sir i'll get right to it while i'm at it would you like some coffee or maybe someone to massage your shoulders for you?” she dropped her smile and glared at him again “you may be my boss, but lets not forget its my grandfather that owns this company and if you want to keep up your attitude with me i can always give him a call im sure he would love to hear from his only granddaughter that he cherishes.” derek took a step back and let out a small breath “no morgan that won't be necessary, I apologize for the behavior towards you I'm just having a rough time lately as you know, however I will not apologize for my behavior towards someone else.” he glared at kat again then turned his head and headed towards his office. Kat let out a slow breath, she just realized she had held it in since he had shown up, morgan shook her head and sighed “you really know how to pick em kat, anyways i'm gonna go get to work, are you gonna be okay?” Kat nodded slowly but did not lift her head. She didn't want Morgan to see the sliver of tears in her eyes, “I'll be fine. See you later.” morgan nodded but she heard the catch in kat's voice, she squeezed kats shoulder once then headed for her office. Kat sighed and logged into her phone to get started “please just let the rest of the day go by quickly so I can go home.” (15 minutes earlier) Tal sat out front of kats office and racked his brain. Why was he so concerned over this woman? Yes she was beautiful but nothing compared to the others he had met or even been with, yet there was something to her that he couldn't figure out that captivated him “excuse me, but you can't be parked here or I'll have it towed we don't tolerate riff raff around here.” tal looked up to see a little man with brown hair that obviously haven't been to a gym in awhile glaring at him with hatred in his eyes tal flashed a small smile, “i'm sorry i apologize just dropping off a friend, i'll be leaving right now.” tal had just started up his bike when the man put a hand on his handle “who is your friend?” tal’s brow furrowed and he gripped his handles as not to lose his temper on this insignificant man “ I really don't see how that is any of your concern, I explained why I was here and i am leaving and you are gonna take your hand off my bike now.” he growled through his clenched teeth, the man turned beat red but removed his hand “fine, but if you're smart you'll stay away.” now tal was curious no one acted this hateful unless they hadnt eaten, werent getting s*x, hadnt had their morning coffee, or had just been hurt. Tal sighed he usually didn't use his powers but this was turning out to be an intriguing morning and he cared for kat and something about this man working in the same building as her made him uncomfortable, he sighed and looked up and met the man's gaze staring intently, his blue eyes flashed and he whispered in almost a song like tone “tell me your secrets let me see the truth of your life.” the man stood frozen as his life flashed in his mind, first he remender being a child in his room wanting to play with his father “dad come play with legos with me.” he smiled widely, his father smelled of whisky and cigars and glared at him in disgust “that is for children that don't have a future ahead of them, you disgrace me.” his father slapped him so hard he fell to the ground with tears in his eyes, his mother came rushing in “harold what did you do!” his father raised his hand to her and his mother backed up slowly “i will not raise a wuss, he will be great or he will be nothing. And I won't have nothing for a son living on my legacy.” his father grabbed his mother by the wrist and walked out of the room and locked him in he sat with his head in his hands and cried silently, then his mind flashed again to him being fifteen as he sat at the side of the hospital bed holding his mothers hand as the heart monitor beeped slowly her long beautiful hair was gone now and he was so tiny you could see her cheek bones “i'm so sorry momma, i'm sorry i couldn't be the man you want me to be.” his mother smiled softly and lifted her shaking hand to his cheek “my sweet boy you have nothing to be sorry for, i'm sorry for not protecting you more.” he cupped her hand to his cheek as a tear fell “i love you to the moon and back always.” she rubbed her thumb against his cheek “i love you more than that even, be good.” she coughed loudly and pulled he hand away from his cheek just then his father walked into the room adjusting his tie and zipping his pants and he noticed his economy tutor in the hallway adjusting her skirt, his face turned red with hatred but he wouldn't say anything in front of his mother she didn't need this right now, his father glared at him and walked to the opposite side of the bed and took his mother's hand “how are you doing dear?” he said calmly but not with love she stared at his and sighed slowly “i'm dying harold but oddly I'm rather grateful.” her eyes flashed hatred towards his father and she coughed harder and took a deep breath then turned her head towards her son “don't ever forget the love in your heart.” and then the heart monitor let out a long beep as her eyes closed, suddenly his mind flashed again he was 19 and working for a big company and smoking a cigar at his mansion he had just bought from the bonus he received and then it flashed again and he was sitting at a table holding kats hand staring into her beautiful hazel eyes “katarina will you marry me?” she smiled big and threw her hands around his neck “yes!!” they kissed passionately and slowly “I love you.” “I love you too.” then his mind flashed again and he was in his bed at home with susan his secretary he was sweaty and had just finished and turned over from her “that was incredible boss.'' Susan whispered slowly” he grinned and opened his eyes to see Kat standing in the doorway with a present andtears streaming down her face. He sat there calmly but his head went a million miles an hour he jumped from the bed “kat im so sorry i uhm i..” susan sat up covering herself “well this is awkward uhm happy birthday boss i think i should leave.” derek glared at susan then looked back at kat she sniffled set the present down on the dresser by the door her face turned beat red and she took off her engagement ring and threw it across the room at him “ f**k you, hope you enjoyed youre birthday jerk were done.” she turned and ran derek panicked and yelled “wait!” just then his mind flashed again, he sat outside kats apartment door and ran his fingers through his hair, she hasnt come to work in a week and wouldnt answer his calls she was being rediculous he made a mistake he knew that but he couldnt let her go he gripped the flowers in his hand and slid the bag of jewlry up his arm and was just about to knock on the door when he heard laughter coming from inside “f**k him kat he doesnt deserve you, you can do so much better than him besides, susan? Really? He probably has a disease now.” derek pressed his ear to the door and listened to morgans words surely kat wouldnt let her talk about him like that and then he heard kats sweet laughter it made his heart flutter then felt like a knife pierced it “youre probably right besides he was never that good in bed anyways, im better off without him.” he turned beat red and started shaking f**k that b***h he did everything for her and if she couldnt forgive him for one small mistake she didnt deserve him and he would make her regret ever being born, he stratened his tie turned and left, his mind flashed again and all of a sudden he was back in the parking lot with the man on the bike and his head was pounding he put his hand to his head “what the hell just happened?” tal glared at this man his face beat red this insignificant asshole broke kats heart and somehow thought he was the one that was hurt, how arrogant do you have to be? A tic started in his jaw and he let out a sigh as to not give himself away “i'm not sure, you were staring at me about to let me leave then started acting funny. I'm not sure pal but i need to leave.” he reved the bike and drove off visibly pissed he needed to punch something he pushed the bike hard and went home, his eyes red and gripping the handles so hard on his bike that he felt them being crushed under his grip, he relaxed them slowly and looked at the speedometer 120 damn he needed to slow down, but he couldn't help it that man really pissed him off, he pulled up to his driveway and put out his hand the gates to his house opened and he pulled up and parked and got off the bike sighing loudly, the front door opened and his helper alex came walking out “damn boss you look rough.” he looked at the bike and noticed the grooves on the handles of tals bike and then looked back at tal and his eyebrows shot up “damn nevermind if you did that to your favorite bike i don't wanna know what you'll do to me.” he put his hands up and took two steps back tal looked at alex and laughed a little “sorry pal, been one hell of a morning.” Alex crossed his arms over his chest and raised one brow “oh? Enlighten me, especially since you haven't had an “interesting” day in i don't even know how long.” tal glared at alex “okay kid seriously not in the mood for the sarcasm, but you may have some insight into some of this.” Alex let out a slow whistle and rubbed his face “and here i thought i'd have the day to relax, alright let's go inside I atleast need to sit down for this cause i have a bad feeling.” tall nodded and followed Alex inside. The sad part was the kid was probably right because he had a bad feeling about all this too.
