“No!” Nora cut her off. “Um… I’m just…” Nora sighed and looked at Olivia with wide brown eyes that now shone pure amber in the rays of the afternoon sun. “You’re not just giving me this job because you feel sorry for me, are you? For what happened this morning?” she asked with a self-deprecating laugh.
“No,” Olivia replied firmly. “Not at all. I’m giving you this job because I think you’re the best person for it. You’re creative and smart and I’m excited to see what you’ll bring to the table.” Olivia couldn’t stop her lips from curling into a small smile.
“Okay. Thank you,” Nora replied so earnestly that Olivia couldn’t tell if Nora was simply being humble or if she even believed Olivia’s words at all.
“You’re welcome.” Olivia waited a beat before adding, “And I mean that, Nora. You’re really talented. I’m looking forward to getting to work with you.”
Olivia delighted in the intense flush that overtook Nora’s cheeks. “Thanks. I’m really looking forward to working with you too, Olivia,” Nora replied, a sweet smile spreading across her cheeks.

As Nora walked toward the door, Olivia couldn’t keep her eyes off the younger woman’s backside, her hips swaying slightly with each step, practically begging Olivia to take a peek. As soon as the door closed behind Nora, Olivia leaned back on her desk. Her hand pushed through her blond locks as she let out an exasperated sigh.
“God, I’m fucked!” she whispered to herself.

“...And I swear, there was this, like… energy happening between us. I don’t know how else to explain it.” Nora lay, sprawled out on her bed, phone in hand as she recounted the events of her strange day to her cousin Charlotte over a video call. “But then she just shook my hand and that was that.” Nora sighed heavily as she contemplated. “I probably just imagined all of it. There’s no way she could be interested in me.”
“Why wouldn’t she be interested in you? You said she was gay, right?” Charlotte asked with her thick southern drawl.
Nora rolled her eyes dramatically. “Charlie! Just because she’s a lesbian, ...
