Gray For Now // One-On-One // OPEN

"No problem sweatheart~" he walked over and pressed the elevator button going down, "Yes there is a basement."

"I mean. I figured there was, in this giant place," Stella admitted.

(GTG eat BRB)

"I think my house is a little bit bigger…" he trailed off as the elevator beeped and they went in. He pressed floor zero out of the 47 floors in the building including floor zero. "Floor zero is where we make all the phones. Each floor is different in its own way."

(byeee)
"Jesus christ. Why, again, have I never heard of you?" She asked, giggling a little.

"I make sure people don't" he winked as the elevator opened, "SIR!!! Here are the new phone and one for the beautiful lady right here," Nick to the phone into his hands and gave the other to Stella, "A gift."

"Oh!" Stella looked down at the package in her hands, smiling in disbelief. "Oh my god, thank you!"

( oh shit I am so sorry it logged me out of this and I didn’t know that updated I am really sorry)
“Well since the next floors are in a meeting we’ll be skipping to the 17 floor,” he smiled letting Stella go in first, “Alright, so do you believe me yet?” He smirked.

((You’re fine lol))
“Duh. Of course I believe you,” She said, glancing around, then back to Nick.

Nick took her hand and led her out of the elevator, “After this wanna get something to eat?”

(I am really sorry!!!)

((No, you’re fine.))
“Sure.” She couldn’t help but smile a little as she looked up at him.

"Your smile is beautiful you should do it more often," he said jerking his head to the elevator door that had opened"This floor you could say the most important because these people keep our company in one piece. By that I mean they keep us on task." he chuckled. "So, what exactly do you do at your job again I forgot.

"Nail salon." She said, looking down to her own nails, which were an ashy maroon.

"You do your own as well?" he asked walking around the floor congratulating everyone.

She nodded, looking around in almost wonder at everything. "Yeah. I like it."

he side-eyed her, "You were complaining about it when I met you. Mixed emotions?" he laughed

"I don't like the salon as much as I like actually doing it," She said with a small smile and shrug.

"I guess I can understand that," he groaned as he stretched and tucked his hands in his pocket, "So, if you could work anywhere at all, where would it be?"

She tilted his head at him, knowing somewhat what he was up to. "Somewhere that pays well. Why?"

he shrugged, "Just wondering…" he walked in front and turned around walking backward, "Been in any relationships?"

She nodded. "A couple. Have you?"

"Nope, even though I'm Pan I don't fuck everything I see…not that I said you do," he smiled and walked to the other elevator on the other side, "Back down I guess…"

She smiled a little, liking the fact he didn't think her someone who hooked up with everyone.

He groaned and faced Stella, "Talk less, smile more," Nick placed his hand on Stella's cheek pulling it.

Stella smiled a bit more - and it wasn't fake, either. "What do you think I'm doing?"

"A little smile isn't enough! I need a big smiled like this," he smiled brightly trying to get her to do the same.

"Fine, fine," She agreed, smiling as he told her to. This, too, seemed absolutely genuine.

"See, that wasn't so hard now was it?" he kissed Stella on the forehead as he stepped in the elevator.

Stella didn't blush - she never did - but looked to the floor, eventually glancing back up at him. "It wasn't."

"Good, then do it more ten okay?" he pressed the button and they both went down to the first floor, "This way Milady," he bowed.
