Aspen sighed, and fixed her hair. It was her first day interning in one of the biggest law firms of New York. She had been chosen by Mr. Nicholas Lawson, James Chester's firm partner, to become his intern. Aspen knew the details about Lawson, and Chester. Mr. Chester had written a novel about his life, and how he came to be one of the richest, and most well known men of our time. No doubt, she was nervous to be working under such a well known lawyer, but also a lawyer who has been rumored to be running for a seat in Congress.
As the elevator doors opened, her breath caught in her chest. The floors were a bright white marble, with the furniture a rich mahogany, and burgundy cushion. She was speechless at how absolutely beautiful the lobby area alone, was. Making her way to the front desk, she smiled to a blonde girl, about her age. "Hello, I'm Aspen Walters. I'm the new intern?"
The blonde smiled kindly, then paged someone. Within moments, a tall man came from behind a door in the back. He smiled, and opened his arms in exclamation. Nicholas reintroduced himself to Aspen, and led her to the office in the back. He knocked on one more door, and then revealed one of the largest offices she had ever seen. Nicholas excused himself, leaving the intern with her new boss.

Nicholas lead the small brunette to his friends office, and then left the two of them there. He had other business to attend to. Making his way back to the lobby, Nicholas hopped up on the desk, and looked down to Bexley. "Hey kitten, would you like to leave for lunch later? I was thinking Italian." He eyed her up, and down. She looked like a tasty little snack, but he knew he had to be on his best behavior, at the office at least.
"And then for dinner tonight, I was thinking I could whip us up some stir-fry, and lo mein." Nick loved cooking, and he loved spoiling Bex more than anything. "And you can choose what we have for dessert!" He chuckled, and kissed the tip of her nose. He couldn't resist himself, in all honesty.

The rest of the day at the office was a blur. Nick was ready to be home, and relax with his girlfriend. Getting the ingredients prepared for dinner, he hummed quietly to himself. Lost in all thoughts possible.
