him and he looked at me, and before I knew it we were kissing.”
    “What was it like?”
    “Amazing! Oh my God, it was just... one of those kisses where time seemed to stand still and it made me feel all tingly all over.”
    “Did you, you know...?” Mandy said, making an expressive gesture with her eyebrows. Scarlett shook her head and finally leaned back in her chair, sighing heavily.
    “No, he left pretty much right after it happened. Said that he didn't want to take advantage of me in the state that I was in. So... yeah, I can imagine that he doesn't have the best opinion of me right now. I mean, it’s my first week and I've already gotten drunk at work and made out with the CEO.”
    “It's one for the record books, that's for sure,” Mandy said, and Scarlett made a face at her.
    “Still, at least he rarely comes around here. I doubt I'll ever have to see him again, not that I wouldn't mind seeing him again... I can't get that kiss out of my head,” Scarlett said, a wistful look in her eyes.
    “I hate to break it to you, but he's going to be around for the next few days. I'm surprised he's not in yet, actually. He must have another meeting or something,” Mandy said. Scarlett felt her heart fall in her chest and wished the ground would open up and swallow her whole.
    “Well, that's it. My reputation here is officially ruined. There's no coming back from this.”
    “Are you kidding me? People are going to want to talk to you to find out what happened. We've all wanted this. Even I'm envious of you. I mean come on, it's Jack freaking Keyes! He's the type of man that every woman wants to be with and every man wants to be. You know what people would give to make out with him? I can't believe I'm actually sitting here with someone who kissed him!”
    “Well, don't get too excited. It was just one of those things that happened.”
    “You never know...” Mandy said. Scarlett dared to dream for a moment but then quickly pushed the thought out of her mind. The last thing she needed right now was an unrequited crush on an unattainable man. It was just a kiss—an amazing kiss—and she would leave it at that.
    The knock on the door made them both jump. Scarlett opened it.
    “There's been a delivery for you,” the receptionist said, and handed Scarlett a big bouquet of flowers. There was a look of curiosity in the receptionist’s eyes, but Mandy told her to go back to front desk as Scarlett closed the door. Before she did so, however, she noticed that people were staring at her. Her heart raced as she took the flowers and smelled them. The bouquet was a flurry of colors and sweet smells, and was a delight to the senses.
    “You don't think they could be from him?” Mandy asked. Scarlett shrugged, but it would certainly make the day better if they were. She didn't have time for an unrequited crush, but if he returned her feelings then who knew what could happen...
    With deft fingers she pulled out the crisp card. A pattern of purple vines ran around the edge of the card and she opened it, wondering what message was held inside. But her hopes were soon dashed and she flung the card away, then pushed the flowers off the desk into the bin.
    Confused, Mandy questioned why she reacted that way and picked up the card.
    Good luck at the new job. Matt .
    “Your ex,” Mandy said softly.
    “He needs to stop this,” she said. There was another knock on the door, this time summoning Scarlett to the conference room for an impromptu meeting. The distraction was welcome.
    “I'll get rid of these,” Mandy said helpfully. With a dark cloud hanging over her head, Scarlett went to the conference room, and collapsed into a seat near the end of the table, folding her arms and blowing a frustrated breath out of her mouth to clear away her hair from her forehead. Then she saw him sitting at the head of the table and her insides went queasy. Jack looked at her and a playful smile tugged at the corners of his lips, meant only for
