Tempting my CEO

Chapter 3 - Bad idea

Avalyn

I was sitting at my desk, doing some work that Kate asked me to do. I was looking for some venue for the charity event, which to my surprise, Kate said I could attend. Yes, she said she might need me occasionally throughout the night, but she also wants me to enjoy myself.

Well, I was trying my best to work, but I was slightly distracted because Mr Brady was hanging around. I still can’t believe that he was the one from the coffee shop. I am glad I didn’t go and say hello because that could have made things awkward. I don’t need that at work. I know the company has strict policies on dating for staff, especially staff getting involved with someone higher up than them. It isn’t like we would start dating, that would never happen, but still, even the thought of it makes me feel guilty.

I snapped myself out of it, getting back to work. I got lost in work until suddenly I felt someone lean over me. I turn my head to see who it was. I swallow hard when I see it is Mr Brady. He was very close to me, and he smells so good.

“Um, hello, Sir, can I help you with anything?” I stammer out.

“Are you looking at venues?” He asks, and I nod, “Can I sit?” He added.

“Yes, sure,” I smile.

If that means he isn’t so close to me, then that is a good thing. He smiles, grabbing a chair and pulling it up next to me. He was still close, but not as close as he was only moments ago.

“What sort of venues are you looking at?” He asks.

“Ballrooms, hotels, old building and so on,” I smile.

“I think a ballroom in a hotel would be perfect. What do you think?” He asks.

“I think that would be a good choice, Sir,” I reply.

“Can you please stop calling me Sir or Mr Brady? That is what my father gets called,” He chuckles, “Hudson will be fine, Avalyn,” He adds.

He wants me to call him by his first name. Am I allowed to do that?

“Are you sure it is OK for me to call you that?” I whisper.
