Aura

“Christ, I hate him so much,” I tell Tai as we’re washing the wineglasses, tidying up before going to bed. “Just because he’s gorgeous and hot, doesn’t mean he isn’t the most cocky, arrogant ass in all of Silicon Valley, which is saying something. Damn I wish we had space for a dishwasher.”

“You know what they say about protesting too much,” Tai smirks. “If I were you I’d take the chance to jump his bones at that swanky party he’s putting on for you all.”

“We don’t know for sure it’s swanky, just because he hired some over-priced planning service,” I snip. “He did that because he’s too stuck up to go with the ideas from his staff.”

“Well it can’t be any less swanky than my office party today.”

“Oh god, I forgot all about that. It seems so weird to have a Christmas party in the middle of the day.”

“The word is Scroogey. And it’s even worse that they wouldn’t even pay for the food, we had to bring pot luck.”

“How could I forget? I won’t ever look at a shrimp again after helping you peel all three pounds.”

“My shrimp were the only edible dish there. It was a line up of disgusting leftovers covered over in Velveeta or Campbells soup sauce topped with marshmallows.”

“I can guarantee you there won’t be any soup at Milo’s party. I’ve seen how he turns his nose up at anything less than gourmet. Even his donuts are farm-to-table.”

“Can you smuggle me into your party pretty please?” Tai begs.

“Ohmigod, I forgot to tell you that too. My boss told me to invite you.”

“He said you could plus one?” Tai screeches, grabbing me and salsa-ing me across the floor then dipping me over the sofa, still clutching the dish towel.

“He did, but only you so don’t get too Glee about it. I don’t want my co-workers despising me any more than they already do.”

Tai goes twerking around the cramped living room until I collapse laughing.

“The party starts early tomorrow with movie afternoon while the Elite Bitches decorate the office, then kicks off for real at five.”

“I have to work,” Tai groans.

“They made you come in the day after your office Christmas party?” I’m stunned.

“Well it’s not as though any of us managed hangovers. Not with the whole; ‘We’ve added a two hundred dollar tab behind the open bar.””

“For seventy staff?” I laugh.

“Exactly. That barely covered my personal requirements for working in that dump all year.”

“So come right after. But don’t get drunk and tell my co-workers any secrets.”

“Like how you secretly wanna hump your boss?”

“Exactly like that – I’ll never hear the end of it. And It isn’t remotely true. Also, they’re really sneaky nerds, so don’t get beguiled by a mountain man beard and spill.”

“Scout’s honor.” Tai stands at military attention.

“Like you were ever in the scouts.”

“Do you think your boss secretly has the hots for me?” Tai looks off dreamily. “Imagine being swept off my feet and taken care of by a hunk that powerful.
