Evangeline

I rolled over and hit my alarm that was going off before sitting straight up in my bed to rub my head. I felt terrible. I knew I shouldn't have went drinking last night with Angel, but she practically forced me to go with her. I slid out the bed and walked into my bathroom, looking at my reflection in the mirror. My eyes were red and puffy like usual after I had a long night out. I also stared at my long brown hair that was in a messy side braid. I threw my hair up in a bun, stepped into the steaming hot shower, washed my body and shaved my legs before rinsing off and stepping out. I walked back to the mirror and took my hair out the bun and side braid before running my fingers through my waves to tame it. I started on my simple make up for the day but decided to skip the foundation since my skin was already clear, adding just a little bit of blush and mascara. I then quickly swiped on some nude lipstick before walking into my room and going over to my closet. I grabbed a pair of my black jeans, a white shirt, and a black blazer, quickly putting them on. Next, I grabbed a pair of my black Louboutin's along with my black Armani bag before walking out the room. "Hey I was just about to wake you up you w***e," said my friend Angel as she walked out her room in the flat we shared. "Well no need I'm already ready. Are you ready?" I asked her as she nodded her head and shut her room door before walking down the stairs with me behind her. "Who's car today my love?" She asked as I grabbed my car keys and she nodded her head. We both walked to my Bentley 6V and I slid in the drivers side as she slid in the passenger side. "Come on b***h let's go we don't have all day." Angel exclaimed as I laughed and started the car to work. When we got to work, Angel and I waved goodbye as she walked right to her area and I walked to the elevator and made my way to the top floor. Angel was the receptionist who arranged all the calls and appointments for people who needed one. She was very good and enjoyed her job. I worked as the boss's personal assistant, and I enjoyed it. Some would say that being the boss's personal assistant would be hard, but I found my job wonderful, not only for the pay I received. I finally got off the elevator and walked to my office to set down my bag before walking to the coffee room and grabbing two cups of coffee. Once I grabbed my coffee and one for my boss, I made my way to his office. I knocked on the door and heard him say come in as I opened the door and walked into the office. "Ahh my favorite assistant. How are you this morning?" He asked as I handed him his coffee. "I'm well Mr. Malik. I just wish I didn't go drinking with Angel last night," I sighed as he smiled and laughed slightly. "Ahh you should have called and I would have given you the day off my dear," he said as I shook my head. "Oh no sir, I just need some coffee and I'll be okay. Anything you need me to do right now?" I asked him. "Yes I do," he said. "Please move all the meetings highlighted in yellow to the days of the meetings that are highlighted in green. That's all I have for now. Oh, and take these files to Mr. Payne for me and tell him to give me a call soon. We have to talk about the new company that wants to merge with us." "Oh what company is that?" I asked. "Oh just one of my best mates, also business partner. He's the CEO of Styles Inc," he said as my eyes slightly widened. "As in Styles you mean Harry Styles? As in the guy who's in charge of Styles Incorporated and Styles Corporation? That Harry Styles?" I asked as Mr. Malik laughed. "Yes, that Harry Styles. I didn't know there were so many," he laughed. "I'm sorry I've just been fascinated with him ever since I came into the world of business, but I've always heard that he can be very hard and intimidating." "Ahh no! Harry? Are you sure? Harry may be the CEO of some many companies, and he may own this building and signs my check, but he's far from a hard ass. Trust me my love," he said as I nodded and sipped my coffee. "Oh well I'll be going now. Thanks Mr. Malik." "No my dear, thank you," he said as I smiled and shut the door. I walked back to my office and decided to get to work. I was switching the meetings around as my office phone rang. "Hello this Malik Inc. I am Evangeline Smith, Mr. Malik's assistant how may I help you?" I said in my professional office voice as I heard a huff come through the other line before a deep raspy voice responded. "Can I please get Zayn on the phone?" the voice asked rudely as I rolled my eyes and said 'sure'. I switched over and called Mr. Malik. "Yes my dear?" he asked. "I have somebody on line four for you." "Ahh that's probably Harry. Thanks love, patch him through," he said as I replied 'okay' and switched the call over for Mr. Malik to answer. I sighed before going back to my work on changing the meeting days. "Uhm Ms. Smith, Mr. Malik asked if you could look through these manuscripts and highlight what needs work." "Of course," I nodded. I finished changing around the meetings before moving on to the manuscripts that I needed to look through. Around 5:30 I heard a knock on my office door. "Come in!" I called as I looked over the next manuscript. I heard the door open and heard my boss's voice. "What are you still doing here? I let you off work at 5:15?" He asked walking into the room and shut the door. "I wanted to finish as much as I could so I could get it to you first thing tomorrow morning sir." I said flipping to the next page. "Nonsense my love go home." "No sir really I should get this done before I go home." I said as my office door opened again. "b***h! If you don't hurry the f**k up and let's go we have a couch to make love too!" Angel yelled as she walked into my office and looked at Mr. Malik. "Well hello there to you Ms. Reid." Mr. Malik laughed. "Hello to you to Zayn." She said. "Angel its Mr. Malik!" I scolded at her. "Oh no its okay my loves you're off the clock." He smiled. "See off the clock so set down that damn highlighter and let's go home!" "It is really okay Evangeline don't worry you can come back and finish these tomorrow I'm not in a rush for them." He smiled before walking out the door. "I swear I love that guy." Angel said as the door closed. "Let's go." I said grabbing my things. ~~~~~~~ We have been home for a watching movies on Netflix and eating popcorn and ice cream while drinking wine. Angel having a little to much to drink she got up and taught me how to drunk dance. "You have to moveyaass likedis." She slurred together as she twisted her hips before falling on her ass. "Well don't do that." She said st and I up as I was laughing my ass off on the couch. "Oh gosh Angel we should get some sleep." I said grabbing the things we had and put them in the kitchen before coming back out seeing Angel fast asleep on the couch. "Get your ass up!" I yelled as she shot up and rubbed her head. "Let's go to bed love." I said grabbing her hand and walking towards the stairs. "God I'm going to be so hung over in the morning." Angel groaned as I laughed before helping her up the stairs.
