Chapter Ten

As I made my way to my cubicle, I kept my head down, mostly because I was certain there was a blaring sign flashing across it that said: I had sex last night.

And technically, I had sex with the boss. Hot, wild crazy sex that I didn’t even know I could handle, much less enjoy.

But I did.

I was a little sore, and understood why, but whenever I replayed last night, not a single part of it was negative. Maybe I could beat back the past with new experiences. Some kind of desperation came out in me last night. Maybe because I believed Jack when he said he wouldn’t hurt me.

A part of me was uncertain, new to this experience, and was eager to talk about it with my best friend. But, once again, Harper’s schedule conflicted with mine, and when I snuck in late last night, she was already in bed. I needed to talk to her badly. Because, while I didn’t want anyone to know I was dating Jack, I didn’t know how to process everything that had happened over the past couple of days, much less the past couple of weeks.

When I got to my desk, I saw a gigantic vase of gray flowers. Not gray as in dead, but the color gray. I’d never seen such flowers before. They reminded me of Jack’s bedroom. Everything ranging from lilies to daisies to dahlias¸ were all gray. But in the middle of all those, was one perfect white rose.

“Gray flowers?” Edith said, walking up behind me, and chewing on a protein bar. “Did someone die?”

“No,” I defended. “It’s unique and classic.” And the color of Jack’s room. Not wanting to go into more detail about how incredible this actually was, I kept that last fact to myself. There was a small box next to the vase, and a card with my name on it.

“Ooooh! Who’s it from?” Edith asked, all but clawing to get to the card.

“Can I have a moment please?”

She frowned and turned to go back to her desk, mumbling, “Fine, be that way.”

I opened the card, and it was a single note that read:

Light within the storm.

~Jack
