Presidential elections of United States of America has always been like a big carnival which if looked or followed by all the other nations be it an ally or hostile nation. Everyone wants to know what kind of a president will Americans elect this time around and how can they be benefited from that personality. This election was rather very special. Amongst the candidates was a woman named Gwenethen Reynolds. A confident 35 year old woman, brimming with confidence which oozes out of her personality was the most talked about in this election. Gwenethen hails from coastal town of New Orleans was heavily supported by the younger generations as well as the old folks. There was a wave of change in the country. They saw someone powerful in her in comparison to all the other male candidates against her. It was the counting day, after all the hard work and turmoil it all was about to get down to this one single day. As usual, Gwen was up and about her work like it is just another day. She went out for a breakfast that day and met few of her supporters, shook hands with them and went on to the gas station to fill up the gas. Her whole day pretty much went into her chores and other important work which needed her attention.

Gwen was rather a little old school and she did have smartphone but didn't get herself on to those trendy new apps teenagers wete using nowadays, so she never got updated of the counting. She was about to get into her car and her phone rang. "Go for Gwen" She said in a slender way. "We've done it. You did it. You have a majority support to run this country. Madame President" Informed her colleague. "Come back to the election room, we're all here. Waiting for you." She said and hanged up. Gwen was still contemplating what was just told to her. She dreamt about serving this nation all her life and it is happening. She hoped on to her car and drove straight to the election room which was a few blocks away from her home. While she was driving her phone kept buzzing up all way long. She quickly got out of the car stumbling upon the doorway in a clumsy manner but she managed to pick herself up. There were a lot of people waiting for her to enter and as soon as she entered the hall everyone shouted in a unison. "Welcome to the base, Madame President" This marked the beginning of a beautiful chapter in the life of a normal girl with a major in foreign policy. Gwenethen Reynolds.

No amount of funding for studies and polls could have eased the underlying excited anxiety that likely was within half the country, and especially within Evan Carlisle who had championed Gwenethen for over a year now. Bright, charismatic, of a new emerging generation she was the perfect embodiment of change that this country needed. Evan knew from the moment he saw her as a little known presidential candidate over eighteen months ago, that she was someone he wanted to know, to meet, and ultimately help see the goals and changes she aspired to bring to the country end up becoming a reality. Evan Carlisle was among the super elite class of human beings. Harboring wealth that simply the vast majority of citizens couldn’t dream of. Hell, there were state budgets and freaking countries which had less resources than him. His claim to fame and fortune? Messier than he would have liked. Evan was the son of an oil baron. Generational wealth accumulated on the exploitation of fossil fuels and the subsequent exploitation of the environment. His roots and background would have immediately sank Candidate Reynolds’ public perception, had the public known he was helping to fund her. Only, Evan had made waves some years prior after the passing of his father, and the resulting shuttering of doors of the oil refinery business. Lawsuits and board of director’s up in arms at Evan’s unilateral decree. Shifting billions of operational funds towards clean energy. This wasn’t a token 5% of the budget now allocated towards Solar or Wind, but stripping back the company’s identity to the core and shifting to what Evan said would be a brighter future. Politically and ideologically Evan aligned with Gwen’s views, and upon asking for an audience with the then, little known Candidate, he was more than happy to offer her help. Not just for her sake, but for the sake of the country, and honestly the world.
10:30
By now Evan was a 47 year old male. Handsome, charming, a full head of hair and not a single gray managed to sneak in to those dark locks. Notoriously known for working too much, the man was unmarried and had no heirs. Despite being a billionaire, he was of the rare breed who actually had avoided the majority of public disdain for the super wealthy. He was, for all intents and purposes, using his funds to the greatest potential to help humanity. Certainly he could give it all to charity, and he did give a lot, but would it not be better to use those funds to help unshackle the country, and maybe the world, from big oil? Research required funding, change would not come cheaply. Of course as a major donor of now President Reynolds’ campaign he was in attendance at the election base. She was the star of the party, as would be expected. Undoubtedly she’d be hammered by reporters and journalists asking for a statement to be the first Woman President and the youngest in American history. The media would eat her up, in a good way. She just had that kind of charm about her. Considering how overwhelmed she must have been with person after person congratulating her, Evan kept his distance until he spotted an opportune time. The President Elect having what appeared to be a minor moment for a breather as he approached her from behind and rested a palm very gently against her upper back. “Well Miss Reynolds-“ He cleared his throat. “President Reynolds, I guess I better take what I get in terms of your time. I knew this day would be coming, but I’m guessing I can’t just text the President whenever I feel like, or pop in and out at my leisure.” Which he did often. He wasn’t a campaign manager, but he did devote a lot of time taking on similar roles. He, as far as he was concerned, was on very good terms with her. A colleague certainly, and he’d like to think a friend as well. “Luckily for you, in a few short months you’ll be in that white house and then I guess you’ll fin
10:30
ally have some proper guards to keep from bugging you.” He joked, clearly, but it was somewhat true. He couldn’t just waltz up to the oval office at his leisure. “Jokes aside Gwen. I just want to say I’m very proud of you. I knew you had it in you from the get-go, and I’m blessed to be able to stand beside you on this night, surrounded by so many others who have worked tirelessly over the months. Anyway- I know your time is limited, but-“ He nudged her shoulder gently. “Try not to be a stranger Madame President.”

Evan and Gwen had this good bonding upon some really critical points which were dealbreaker when it comes to standing for the office. Gwen upon multiple meetings got to know the real Evan Carlisle which not a lot of them know. He was more than his net worth. "Ohh, c'mon Evan. You don't need to downplay yourself. You are really important piece of the puzzle that my campaign was and this was in no way possible without your efforts and faith in me -" Gwen said gently nudging on his arms. "Also, I'll try to accommodate you somewhere in the list of priority people to enter the White House if that even is a thing" She giggled continuing the joke that Evan started about meeting her uninvited. "So, do you want to grab some lunch? I'm hungry again because of all the anxiety and pressure -" She paused as her hair annoyingly came towards her face again and again, she tied them in a bun and just pushed in a pen she was holding right in between to hold it tight. "Uhh, so yeah. Lunch? Down for it? I'll even allow you to brag that you had lunch with the President of United States" She burst into a laughter patting Evan's shoulder.

Evan’s green gaze fell upon the shorter woman, giving her an award winning smile as it appeared, even as president elect she was still the same Gwen he’d come to know and befriend. He had half wondered if there would be a paradigm shift in her attitude now that she knew she was expected to win, but that appeared to not at all be the case. In truth, there was a lot riding on her shoulders as the first woman president of the US. As many would tout this to be the shattering of the glass ceiling and a giant step forward for women across the world, many others would be critical of her. She would be the role model to be compared to for all women moving forward, and any mistake could not only undermine her effectiveness as a leader, but potentially set back women for decades. Gwen was a smart girl, she knew this, Evan didn’t need to spell it out for her. Especially not at a celebratory period of time such as this. He was however, quite pleased to see that he would still maintain his access to her. After all, a lot of time, effort, and money had been invested in Gwen Reynolds. He would be a wise man to keep her within arm’s reach. “My you’re a generous one. You do know the media will likely report on this making some assumptions that you’re considering me for a cabinet position. Or that you’re in bed with Big Oil. Which is fine. I’ll just explain to them they’re grasping at straws and have no concept to what they’re speaking of. That I have no interest in being a appointed to a cabinet position. Not when I have a card with an all access pass.” He joked, even if he did get such a card, it’s not like he’d be flaunting it. “Come on-“ He offered her an arm like a gentleman might. “I’ll drive, and quite possibly cause a ruckus as Secret Service thinks the President Elect has gone missing.” He joked, but it wasn’t that untrue. Her life from now on would be under the constant watch of others. It was a shame she wasn’t married already as how could she be expected to da

te now when surrounded by security and media? “What kind of food are you in the mood for?” Evan asked, intent upon walking the two of them to his Audi.

"How about we enjoy some good Chinese before me eating at a Chinese restaurant becomes a topic to debate on CNN" She joked as they walked towards the car and just paused for a moment near the car. "You know what, this is just a raw thought but I'm sure you can't get a cabinet position because I'll have to answer a lot of people but you can surely become our chief energy resources advisor, that way you can have your say in my energy resources policy and you'll get a free pass to white house" She said putting her hands on her tiny waist looking at Evan's for his reaction. This surely was something really important for Gwen because she knew Evan's is a businessman after all and he would be looking to get some returns of his investment and Gwen thought what better to do it this way. There was only one thing she was concerned of and that is chances were she would be asked lot of questions upon his appointment given he owns big oil companies. Having thoughts running through her mind she quickly added a but in the end. "-But to get this approved by my cabinet you'll have to leave your positive as the CEO of your company but you can still be a board member and help your company while you work for me. How does that sound to you?" She said as she leaned on to the door which was quite near on her left hand side. @OhRyæn

“I can see the headline now, Gwenethen Reynolds weak on China.” He teased, it was ridiculous, but as sad as it was there probably would be at least one article that would run with the idea. She did however cause the older man to raise a brow and cock his head slightly at her dangling the energy advisor position before him. It was certainly a tempting offer. Pretty good access to the President, and providing a relatively good excuse for him. On some level he may have liked to be her Chief of Staff, to pull the strings on her schedule as he saw fit, but that would legitimately be quite a lot of work, and there would undoubtedly be questions as to whether he was qualified for that. But energy? That was his sector. And with a country foaming at the mouth for Green Energy, as well as her campaign platform championing such advancements, it would only make sense that she spend a lot of time with her Resources Advisor. “So, I get to leave a relatively cushie job as CEO of one of the largest energy companies in the world, traveling year-round, all to work beneath the first woman president?” His chose a tone to neither suggest he was for or against this idea. Letting some awkward silence fill the space between them before giving her a smile. “I’m quite passionate about this, Miss Reynolds. I do hope you understand I might be quite demanding of your time.” Evan gave her a wink before leaning in closer, briefly brushing against her before opening the door for her, before the two would leave for the restaurant. -

Despite easily being able to take her to the classiest Chinese restaurant in the city, he opted for an ordinary Chinese restaurant where the clientele would likely not recognize the two of them. Seated towards the back Evan decided to make his offer to her, candidly. She likely knew better than most that there were strings attached to everything. In politics people were rarely just ‘friends’ without wanting something in return. Naturally, many people would want the president to be in the palm of their hands, however, Evan had been mindful to not have any expectations of her in exchange for his funding. He wouldn’t have asked for an advisor position, he wouldn’t have asked for favors. The two had similar goals relative to green energy and he was confident in her making good decisions. Maybe not every choice he’d make, but definitely a similar direction. Seated across from her, his gaze rested softly on her. “You’ve got a few months, thankfully, before you’ll be sworn in. Enough time to start settling upon the various positions that need to be filled. A monumental undertaking as you’re likely going to be more bombarded than you’ve already been with people volunteering for positions, or trying to get their agenda pushed. Promises to be fulfilled, people now positioning themselves to see that their projects and passions get pushed to the front of the line. I know you knew this ahead of time, but I did want to just remind you Gwen, I believed in you from the first days of your campaign. I’m quite content in knowing that my passions are in good hands, even if I never had a chance to speak to you again. I just want to be candid with you, because I’m sure you’re going to be facing many people who will say one thing, but expect something else from you. I don’t want anything from you President Reynolds. At least, not politically motivated anyway. I am, however, available to you if you’d like it, not just in energy related matters, but if you’re genuinely looking for

someone’s opinion that isn’t biased. These upcoming months are going to be difficult, perhaps almost to the point of being overwhelming. I’m not saying I think you’ll need help, but I consider you a friend and I am always willing to lend a hand to my friends. There’s a lot on your shoulders, for a man or woman in this position. I just mean to say, you don’t need to feel like you need to wear a mask around me.” He put down the menu. “Well, maybe just one request. Have a celebratory shot of sake with me?”

Gwen had a good laugh upon the "shot of sake" comment of Evan. She listened to what Evan had to say about not really wanting anything in return and instead offering to help in any matter as such. Gwen was quite confused with this stance if his. She looked at him just smiling and thinking what's his play here. Suddenly there was an awkward silence, Gwen quickly tried to fill it up. She took a deep breath and revised her offer. "So~" she took a pause as she leaned forward with both her hands on the table and matching her gaze with Evan's. " I've known you for quite sometime now and having said that I don't need a mask around you, let me confess something. I'm shocked upon your stand here about the offer of chief energy resources advisor because I thought you needed something in return. But you proved me wrong and as a token of this new found friendship I want to make an offer of chief advisor to the president" She paused and smiled. " You definitely are very qualified for this, you've traveled around the world. You know politics of god knows how many countries and the best argument is you are candid when you're with me and I want someone who can stand up against me when I'm wrong. That's you. So? What do you think?" She grinned as she layed out the offer to him. Gwen knew what she offered to Evan and she also knew she would have to justify it well enough to the people of the States as well as other deserving candidates who are looking forward to take this position, but at this time and in thia moment she felt Evan was the right person given how candid he was about everything till now in front of her and she had to go with her gut feeling. Again silence took over the space between them as Gwen looked at Evan eagerly for a reaction or probably an answer. "C'mon, say something. What do you think? Would you be able to work for a woman leaving thay fancy job of yours?" She joked playing with a spoon laying stray on the table. @OhRyæn

Perhaps many, perhaps most might find themselves intimidated, or anxious whilst being in the presence of someone as high profile as the fucking President of the United States, but Evan’s green eyes met Gwen’s as she leaned forward. His eyes calmly locking with the woman’s as they had their little intimate discussion. Acting like two friends, while the subject matter very much so would concern and shape the very world. Make no mistake, while the US didn’t control the world, it did have some influence. The actions between these two would have ripple effects that extend globally. She surprised him, and Evan was not typically one to be easily surprised. A blank stare as his lips slightly parted. Half waiting for her to tell him this was just a joke. “Wow-“ He said simply, before taking a drink. “Seems you really want to make some headlines huh? I can see it now. President Reynolds in the pocket of a Billionaire.” But of course, the media usually spun things without any concept of reality. They were cynical, assuming a billionaire would have pet projects and special agendas they wanted to have pushed, whereas Evan? His intentions, as far as anyone knew, were straight forward. “I don’t think you understand what you’re getting yourself into, Miss Reynolds. You are correct I am not afraid of being quite candid with you. Telling you how it is, after all… what are you going to do? Fire me?” He joked, he clearly wasn’t in this for the money. “But you understand that I would take that position quite seriously. There will hardly be much free time in your day that’s not planned out by me. We have quite a lot of groundwork to cover, people to meet, deals to be made. And I might add, there are many both within the country, and outside, that will look down upon you. Like you’re weak because of your gender. We both know they’re as wrong as wrong can be, but it will be my job to make sure that the world knows not to fuck with Gwenethen Reynolds.” .

Evan sighed. “I thought I was going to have a nice, stress-free night, to celebrate your victory. Now I guess I’m going to have to prepare to have my life examined by the media… again. So thanks Gwen-“ He said sarcastically, with a smile of course. He was no stranger to the media. His life had been torn through plenty of times. Rocks uncovered, ‘dirty’ secrets, although nothing terrible. So he has been caught going to extravagant parties around the globe, having beautiful women at his side. He never said he was a saint though and he would make no apologies in enjoying life. “We should probably keep this between us, for a bit. I need time to get my affairs in order. Believe me, I’d like to just text my assistant and tell them I quit and to have them inform the board, but you know, protocol, procedure, votes, yadda yadda.” Evan rolled his eyes. “By your inauguration we can come out with the appointment, until then our ‘get togethers’ are going to have to be thought as ‘casual’ as opposed to official business. Conflict of interest, you know, us discussing legislature while I still have reins on an international corporation. Guessing you’re alright keeping this a secret for a little bit?” @gweniee

Gwen was quite happy upon how well Evan took it and they way he laid out all his plans for them as team. Gwen took a sip of her drink and nodded to what Evan had to say. "Umm, yeah. This needs to be a secret untill you resign. Also, yes I'll need your help in actually setting up my networks with every individual I need to be on good terms. We'll have to get some PR work done with the media before announcing it. You and me will have to appear at few places together for the gossip to start. Till then, you need to get the board procedure in motion" Said Gwen and yes Gwen has some real skills when it comes to PR and media management too. She was an honest politician but she knew what trick to play and at what time. "So, enough work discussion? Let's order something to eat" She said as she turned towards the waiter waving her hand probably forgetting she isn't just some not so known candidate. The waiter came by walking slowly trying to understand if she is who he thinks she is. His mouth wide open with a tablet in his hands. "Ye-yes ma'am. What can I get for you?" He said politely understanding not to hinder anyone's privacy yet can't beleive president-elect was in front of him. "Umm, can you please get us some ramen to go with" She asked with the sweetest voice possible and the waiter just nodded and went away without any asks for selfies or autograph weirdly. "What do you think? Will this guy take a picture of us and circulate around?" Gwen playful looked at Evan with a smirk on her face. " I think he will and one of your damn headlines will come true" She joked. @OhRyæn

No one gets elected President without having some natural ability to charm, and as Evan watched the waiter trip over his own words it did appear as if Gwen too had the innate ability to charm the socks off of most people. Politely Evan hid a smile behind his drink until the waiter left with their orders. “Could make for some good content. I wonder what angle they’ll go with. Speculating that I’m in the midst of bribing you? Perhaps they’ll skew it another direction and the media will spin it that President Reynolds is in bed with the energy sector. Or perhaps they’ll paint me as a cheapskate who, even while I’m worth Billions, Istill took you out for some cheap casual Chinese. Don’t worry, by the third date I’ll at least take you out to the Olive Garden or something.” He joked, of course. Pulling out his phone he briefly checked the headlines. “Doesn’t appear as if the media has gotten wind that the President Elect is missing in action. Possibly abducted.” His eyes lifted up to her before setting his phone aside. “I’ll drop you off at the Hotel before we finish today. Are you going to be in town for a while longer, or will you be traveling?” Naturally Evan knew she was New Orleans, unsurprisingly for an Oil Baron’s Son, Evan grew up in Texas, though had some residences on both the East and West coasts, and now it seemed he would need to be shopping for a place in DC soon as well. @gweniee

"Umm, no I'm not traveling. I have debriefing tomorrow. My assistant told me secret service want to have a chat with me and explain the protocols going forward" Gwen said as she sipped upon her drink with her one leg over the other. "This is probably the last day I can eat like this outside without having the food vetted by the secret service" She said with a smile and let out a sigh. "So by when will your process of getting of your companies board complete? Because I want to plan our media appearances soon and I want your A game there" She smiled as the waiter came back with their ramen. "Here you go Miss president" said the waiter as he put the bowls on the table and just stood there smiling as if Gwen were some celebrity which technically she was. "Thank you so much" Gwen said looking at him with a smile. "Give me your phone, well take a picture?" She said politely as the waiter reluctantly gave her his phone which he honestly wanted. Gwen took it and just turned on the opposite direction looking at the camera. "C'mon smile" She said as she clicked the picture and handed the phone over to him again. "Ma'am, I just want to say we are really rooting for you and I've voted for you" The waiter said with probably the purest heart. "Thank you so much, sir. I hope I can be a good public servant and make the best decisions for our country" She said with a wide smile on her face because honestly this compliment which she probably should get used to were really flattering. Waiter soon left them to enjoy their lunch probably looking at a good click to put up on Instagram. @OhRyæn

Evan held his tongue as Gwen made the Waiter’s day, or most likely year, by taking a candid selfie for the guy. Having himself been of an upper cut from society it was sometimes easy to forget what it was like to be starstruck, and while perhaps some decade or two ago a president wouldn’t be considered a celebratory, Gwenethen certainly did fit that case. It was not to say Evan didn’t find her impressive, but rather, he also knew that deep down she was still a human being. “I would say you better get used to that, however, there’s a good chance you’ll have plenty of men dressed in black that will stop anyone from getting too close. Well, most people anyway.” He commented only after she was finished with the waiter. “I suppose this counts as our first public sighting. But to answer your question, I’m thinking it’s going to take a month or so. Likely just before the holidays, and certainly before the New Year rolls over. So, depending on what formal functions you need to attend we might want to appear at one function or another around that time to get the rumors circulating.” Evan said, letting his eyes rest upon her softly as he inwardly considered how things may unfold. Initially, he had anticipated pulling subtle strings from time to time. His support and funding of her giving him a reasonable excuse as to why she may meet with him a couple times a year, as to why he along with a very select group of people would have access to her private cell #. But to be her Chief advisor? To figuratively be whispering in the ear of the most powerful woman on the planet? Evan would do well to not appear to be too eager, at least until his worth could be better proved to her. At least until all the pieces were set in place. And so, Evan kept things casual during their luncheon. There would be plenty of time for them to meet discretely behind the scenes as they jointly orchestrated placing him at the top of the short-list for advisor. So upon concluding their lunch E

van would drive the Madame President back towards the celebration Hall. Tinted windows up, affording them some momentary privacy as he turned to look over at her in the passenger seat. “So as to not create a storm for my legal department, let’s not say we discussed anything of advisor positions today. A simple congratulatory get together. Give me at least four weeks before we so much as text one another, but by December my affairs should be in order and my position on the board limited such that there would be no conflicts of interest in me communicating or being seen with you. That gives us a few weeks to be seen together before your inauguration in the middle of January. You’re likely going to be a media darling for at least a few weeks with interviews and reporters hanging around you, so it’s probably good to give you a little space anyway. I’ll reach out once things are in order.” Evan shifted to place a warm right hand over her left as she was seated in the passenger seat. A physical gesture of support whereby his touch lingered for only a few seconds. He knew this to be more personable than merely words alone. “And congratulations again President Reynolds.” He said, a title she was quickly going to have to get used to. @gweniee

"It's Gwen for you, Evan" Gwen said acknowledging his gesture very well. " Yeah, I'll be on the news and I'm sure I'll be asked about us for sure but I know what to say to them" She chuckled as she looked into the rear mirror to adjust her hair a bit. "Okay so, you do have my cell number, call me anytime and I'll pick it up. It would be sometime before this cell goes for a toss and I get a new one" She said as she opened the door and stepped out of the car to lean a bit again looking towards Evan. "Thank you so much for the lunch this time. Next one would be on me in the white house. I hope you like white house" She burst into laughter as she waved at Evan and left for her hotel where probably media persons would be waiting for few words from her. As soon as she entered the hotel premises she was swamped by reporters pushing mic almost into her face as she tried and shield her face. "Excuse me, you need to behave a little or else forget about any interviews today" She shouted in frustration and suddenly everyone took a step back to let her breathe. "Huh, thank you. I didn't intend to shout but you didn't leave a lot of choices" She smirked at her friends from press who looked least concerned to be honest. "President Reynolds, where did you go first after you knew you won the elections?" Shouted someone from in between the crowd to which Gwen replied "Went on a luncheon with a friend" short and simple is what she loved. Someone else shouted "How are you feeling about your win and the fact that you'll be the first woman president of the states?" "One sensible question finally" She chuckled looking at the reporter who shared a laugh with her. "Yeah, feels surreal. But I need to thank the people of United States as well as my friends in media.

Evan’s green eyes lingered and watched the President turn around and leave from his car. The tinted windows rolling up as he was free to watch her walk away. “Now isn’t this a curious turn of events.” He was talking to himself. “Chief Advisor of Gwenethen Reynolds.” He let it roll from off his tongue. There was a tangible increase to his pulse in that moment, for the first time in quite a while he found himself growing excited for the future. Entertainment was like any other drug, have enough of it and one is prone to build up a tolerance. In Mr. Carlisle’s case, having more money than some countries on Earth, there was only so much entertainment money could buy. Admittedly, the prospect of having influence upon arguably the most powerful person in the world was rather appealing. And of course, while this would hold quite a lot of prestige and influential power regardless of who was the President, there was probably some added benefits that quite frankly Evan found the woman’s smile and casual way of speaking to be quite charming. There had been plenty of slandering performed on the media and internet forums by men who couldn’t tear their eyes from a woman’s chest or ass. “The Congress woman in a tight skirt with a no-nonsense attitude.” Like many women in her position she was sexually objectified by others. Although, quite admittedly, she did wear a skirt well. The difference would be showing the masses that she could both wear a skirt and lead. Due to her role as first female President, this was ‘new’ for the country. Sure, plenty of other countries around the world had elected female leaders, but for the US they simply couldn’t help but over analyze every aspect of the appointment. Countless op-eds and panels by ‘experts’ weighing in on what it meant for the White House when Gwen was not only the first woman president, but the youngest elected President, and currently there hadn’t been an unmarried president since the middle of the 1800s. There was lik

ely an over abundance of speculation on what this would mean for dating life. As if her dating could potentially pose a national security risk. As if some people actually believed the idea that she wouldn’t know how to keep secrets from spilling out to potential dates. -

It was about a month since he’d last rested eyes upon the President that Evan found himself lounging in his hotel suite in DC. CNN was on as similar ridiculous stories that delved way too into Gwen’s personal life were the norm now. The old President was old news, and until Gwen was sworn in last in January, the Media was left regurgitating pointless opinion pieces. Balancing out the news feeds was an equally charged story of Billionaire Oil Heir retiring the from one of the countries premiere Big Oil companies ‘Fossoil’. Evan was no stranger to being in the media, having had a presence in it since his early 20s, and now two decades later he cared very little for what they’d say. However, they were useful when needed. As such, as agreed between himself and the board, Evan’s dismissal was due to what was perceived as an overly aggressive Green-energy policy that threatened to bankrupt the company. A special vote held by stock-holders who ousted the ‘Commie’ from their ranks. Was it true? Not entirely. The oil company was well on their way towards making improvements, receiving many federal subsidies for converting refineries into more earth-friendly solutions. But this painted him in the light of a martyr. Like he was the victim. This would garner, in time, some media sympathy, and paint the energy sector as the Devil. So for the first time in about a month he picked up his phone and decided to try the President. “So let’s see if this number you gave me was the real deal. Not sure if you’re watching the news this evening, but I’m not sure which one of us are having a harder time. Me being portrayed as unfairly coordinated against, or yet another panel of people who never met you somehow speculating on your life choices. So, how are things? Have the gray hairs started coming in yet?” He texted. @gweniee

It was a really hectic day as usual for Gwen. She had multiple bill drafts to review, few meetings to attend around National security and what not. Honestly, She was working more than she had the capability to. While she was going through a bill draft related to public transport and the ways to improve it better her phone chimed. This one was much more secure line than any other phone that was online and in network on this planet and that already surprised Gwen when the secret service folks tooo her old one and gave this one with the same sim in it. She instantly smiled upon seeing the name of the person who messaged her. EVANS. FINALLY. she quickly picked it up and started reading the message with a smirk on her face. "Huh, Evan and his jokes" Chuckled Gwen as she started typing a response for him. "Hello there, yes this number still works and no none spotted yet. I'm ignoring the news but I do hear whispers around the halls of white house about things said about me in the news. But I don't care and you know that. Things are hectic and I need my chief advisor. My cabinet is down my throat to get one. On a serious note, when do we make it official?" She texted putting her phone down aside on the table. "Umm, Christina please keep my schedule flexible to accommodate one meeting on any given day for an hour will you?" She said leaning down near the intercom pressing a button that buzzed her through to her personal assistant at oval office. This life of hers that she was living was more hectic than she thought and she really could use any help that can make it really easy. @OhRyæn

There was a certain indescribable feeling to be able to shoot a text to the president and in turn actually have a response back. And it didn’t take long for him to get his answer as to whether or not the number she’d given him was still valid. He couldn’t help but smile as she admitted to needing her advisor. He wouldn’t go so far as to say she was in over her head, that wasn’t the case, but when you had the weight of the country on your shoulders it certainly helped to have an extra set of hands. “Well, depending on whether you’ve been following my news, my financial ties with the company have been severed. Stock sold. I’ll note that I have an absolutely massive tax bill waiting for me now, so congratulations on being the woman I’ve spent the most money on ever.” He typed, clearly just teasing before moving into more serious matters. “As for making things official, I suppose we ought to get the rumors churning. I’m quite ‘hurt’ that all the media pundits have not so much as brought my name up as being on your short-list.” He sent his text before waiting a few more minutes and then adding to his message. “Perhaps this is a bit late, which if you’re getting ready for bed you can just tell me, but I’m free now if you’d like me to come over so we can start reviewing some matters.” He said. It was pushing 8pm, not incredibly late, although way later than most people would consider doing any work, but it would be a good excuse to see her in a more discrete setting rather than in broad daylight.

Being a president of the most powerful country meant working till late and leaving after everyone left. Gwen was preparing for a weekly press conference that she started as part of new tenure. Every second press conference would be attended by the President along with the chief spokes person of her administration. While she was going through her notes, her phone chimed. She knew who it might be already. She put aside all her notes and looked at the message. "Getting ready for bed?Are you kidding me" She told herself with a chuckle and started typing a response. "Sure, I'm sorry that I won't be of any help with tax bit but yes let's work on your candidature for chief advisor. I can make sure that happens atleast. Come over, I still have a slot for one more meeting just for this time" She typed as she sipped from her milkshake that she was drinking. Gwen went on to the hall to find her assistant who was casually sitting in the couch and still working. This made her wonder how everyone worked so hard for the country. "Umm, Hey Christina" Gwen said as she slowly went towards the right side of the couch and made herself comfortable there. "Working so late at this time? I think you should call it a day" Gwen said putting her milkshake glass to a mini table near her. "No ma'am, I'm fine. I need to clear the schedule for tomorrow and give this to the head of security" She said pointing to the list of meetings and people who were going to show up tomorrow. "Wow, this many meetings?" She chuckled with a hand to her head "People didn't joke when they said this ain't gonna be easy huh?" She joked. "Don't worry ma'am, you'll be a very good president and it has just been one month. Give yourself some credit" She said as with a wide smile even though she seemed tired as hell.
06:23
"Okay, I'll take that advice. But you need to do one last thing for me today. Please call the head of security and tell him Evan Carlisle will be coming anytime now. We have a last minute meeting to have and it can't wait till tomorrow" She said again taking a sip from her shake with some foam settling over her lips which she wasn't aware about. Christina wrapped up her schedule for tomorrow and straight away called the head of security to inform them about Evan Carlisle's arrival. "Done ma'am, if you need anything else I'll be a call away. I think you should also wrap up your day. See you tomorrow. Good night." Christina said as she waved her goodbye picking up her stuff while Gwen waited right there at the couch for Evan to come by. @OhRyæn

(That was my bad for not tagging you! It’s Monday and my mind isn’t functioning entirely lol) Staying among one of the premiere hotels in the city it wouldn’t take very long for Evan to reach her. He’d actually spend more time getting his car through security than the actual drive to her. At least until he was officially her advisor with proper clearance to come and go as needed. It was certainly later in the evening and considering that he wasn’t attending anywhere formal, just, you know, meeting with the freaking President, Evan was dressed relatively casually. Sporting a suitable wool coat as it was the middle of December before ultimately being shown his way towards Gwen. Despite what many people thought, she wouldn’t be under the constant watch of her secret service. She was a human too who was afforded privacy. There were multiple wings to the White house, for professional matters, public matters, as well as a proper residence. Guest bedrooms, multiple kitchens, living quarters provided to an actual family to feel like they had a true home, normally the upper residence floors would be without agents around. That said, Gwen would inherit a house designed for large families, whereas she herself was only one person. Now, Evan was not anticipating being granted access to those upper floors yet, but was ultimately led towards a still cozy area of the mansion that was professionally furnished. Knocking at the door Evan was let in as he rested his eyes upon her seated at the couch. The natural gas fire place turned on and adding ambience to the room as he walked in and shut the door behind him. “Whew. I told some of those guys next time they pat me down that thoroughly to at least buy me dinner first.” He walked towards her, cracking and rubbing the back of his neck as she was pretty much as she had expected. Still dressed professionally. She was astute and clearly a hard worker. Well, aside from the milkshake mustache she was wearing. .
08:20
“Madame President.” He said politely. “Must say I’m quite humbled to be invited over at such an hour-“ Although, he pretty much had invited himself. “Is it still too late to put an order in to the kitchen?” He joked, in reference to her half drank milkshake. “I can see I’m going to have my work cut out for me, Miss Reynolds.” Evan said, rounding the coffee table as he invited himself to sit on the couch. He was a little informal, but that’s because he knew her quite well and besides, she likely didn’t want an advisor who was going to be too uptight to even be around. “I’m going to guess you’ve been busily at it since the crack of dawn.” He made his assessment, still not telling her about the foam upon her upper lip, but he would in time, and further cement how ‘indispensable’ he could be. “We should probably go over a few things before you decide as to whether you truly wish for me to be your chief advisor. Firstly, I’m not concerned about the direction of the country. Quite frankly, that is more your deal, your cabinet’s, and Congress. My goal will be to make sure you have what you need in order for you to perform at your peak. Your partner to tell you the things no one else will tell you. To tell you the things you don’t want to hear. You may even have days where you’re so mad at me you don’t even want to talk to me, but you’ll know deep down, I’m doing these things because they benefit you. Your well being, mentally and physically are my goals, whether you like that or not. If you want an assistant who will just follow orders than I’m not your man, Gwen. So before I set down this path, I just want to know whether or not you agree to this.” Evan said squarely. Having a very serious conversation while she was left with foam upon her lip and biting his inner cheek to not accidentally let loose an award winning smile.

Gwen's eyes just followed Evan as he walked across the room looking fresh as morning even in a casual attire. It isn't everyday that a president looks at someone like that but Gwen didn't help bu just look at his slim built and sharp jawline. She soon snapped to reality by the conversation that Evan started with and brushing away her own thoughts which were not really appropriate at this given point and moment. "Hey first of all, let me get you something to drink" She said as she unbuttoned her black jacket she was wearing on top of her white formal shirt and removed it to just be normal and comfortable. She then reached the intercom by the table and ordered a cup of coffee for Evan. "So to answer your question, yes I'm sure you and me are on same page" She said brushing her brunette hair behind her ears as she made herself comfortable on the couch. "How to lead the country is on me but if I'm stuck somewhere you'll be the person I'll come to to get me out of the mess and that is where you'll honestly tell me if that mess is something I can get out of or not" She replied to his question as someone knocked on the door. "Yes, please come in" Gwen said probably thinking it would be someone who would've brought coffee with him. Servant entered the room and handed over the coffee to Evan. "So? Tell me how do we plan the announcement? Because that is what I'm more interested in at the moment more than anything else. I'm in dire need of an advisor before people around me eat me off" Gwen said as soon as the servant closed the door behind him holding her head with her hand. One thing was clear that Gwen was finding everything a little more difficult than she thought and she knew she needed a hand to hold and walk by her side through everything and that someone according to her was Evan. @OhRyæn

Comfortable in his own skin, even in the presence of who ranked within the top ten most powerful and influential people in the world, Evan felt as ease within the room. Evan as Gwen stood and shed the dark jacket from off herself, the formal white button up blouse was obviously of high quality linen which fit her form nicely. Certainly not accenting her in an overly explicit and inappropriate manner, but clean and professionally, while still maintaining a feminine elegance to her. “Thank you-“ He said, both in reference to Gwen for ordering and to who had delivered the beverage. Taking a sip the coffee was still hot, but in his usual half joking manner he couldn’t help but comment. “Seems they’ve skimped on the whisky.” It was clearly non-alcoholic, but he enjoyed teasing. “Will be among one of the first items on my list.” He set the cup down, finishing up with his games before shifting his attention back to Gwenethen. “That depends on how flashy you’d like to be. The White House will have substantial media coverage for the upcoming Christmas holiday. I’m sure the media will fawn over what dress, or suit, you intend to wear at the party. The other party will likely be overly critical of your choice in attire. I’m sure some critics will make an observation of how empty the house is on Christmas, a slight at your relationship status and lack of children. Which shouldn’t be a consideration in running the country, but you know how the media latches onto everything. Instead of giving them nothing to work with and potentially feeding on whatever little scraps and speculation they can put together, I can give them something to talk about instead by announcing my tenure as your advisor and let them run wild with that speculation and the reasons behind it. You are busy enough running a country, let me handle the spotlight and take some pressure off you.” Evan reached for her hand, having her take a seat upon the couch near him as he turned his gaze upon her. “That

however means we’ve a couple weeks yet before the announcement. That means, following appropriate procedures, after all, we want to do things by the book, that you’ll have to be limited to how much you rely upon me. Careful in not betraying national secrets. Loose lips tell tales and-“ He reached forward, cupping her cheek with one hand while moving the cuff of his other nearer. “And I don’t even want to know what foam covered lips might tell.” He said, his voice briefly turning husky before wiping clean her lip with the edge of his cuff and letting her see what he meant by foam covered. “See, already saving your political career.” He released his touch to her cheek, putting a little more space between them as he’d only got so close for that reason. “I suppose it just depends how much responsibility you’re looking to pass on me. I’m from the private sector as you know, and I understand there’s much more red tape involved in the public sector. That said, until our announcement is official I know how to keep things discrete.” @gweniee

Gwen keenly listened to what Evan had to say about the way of his candidacy announcement as he decided to come near her much so that Gwen got a bit nervous with the space left between her and Evan. She could feel Evan's fresh breath mixed with some aroma of the coffee he was drinking. "You knew that moustache was there from the beginning but you thought it's more fun to see in a milkshake moustache than not, right?" She giggled with her hand around her mouth as Evan moved back again after clearing the moustache from her lips. "As far as work is concerned, you know what you are getting into. You'll have to learn a new way of handling public sector decision making. Your work involves assisting me in decision making and my decisions and my life both are for people to see and judge" Gwen said as she took last sip from her milkshake tilting her neck a little bit to get rid of some stiffness from around her neck. "Oh and by the way. I have my press conference tomorrow talking about my first month as person in charge. It would be good if you just stood next to me on the podium maybe? Thay will get the rumours started atleast and then I'm sure you'll start getting calls from all those beautiful prime time reporters for some clarifications" Gwen said as she made herself a little more comfortable folding her legs on the couch and turning herself towards Evan facing him so that her neck doesn't strain more. "What are your thoughts on this? Would you join?" @OhRyæn

With an amused smile his green eyes lit up. “I mean, I could have let you go on under the guise of professionalism, instilling in me your hopes and expectations of how you imagine how an advisor may perform. All the while doing so with that milky residue upon you, completely undermining the impression you’re trying to convey. I like to think I’m already proving myself to be quite instrumental.” Evan grew comfortable on the sofa, sipping on his coffee as Gwen proceeded to work out some kinks in her neck and got herself a bit more comfortable, folding her legs and shifting her position. Her appearance certainly was not what anyone would imagine when thinking of the President of the US whereby 95% of them had been older white men preceding this. Who would imagine a woman, while dressed professionally, would be seated in a skirt with the skin of her knees, shins and calves visible. “I’d be happy to. You’ve been quite accommodating in allowing me enough time to get my affairs together, all the while juggling all those responsibilities of not having an advisor while likely having some awkward conversations as to why it was taking you so long. I’ll be there. You know, Miss Reynolds, you’ve got quite the reputation of being independent and fully able to tackle head-on the hurdles set before you. At times going against the tide and making the hard choices even when going with the flow would be so much easier for your reputation. I do have to wonder how…” He drew in to bite upon his inner cheek as if trying to find the proper terminology. “Willing and obedient you might be towards an advisor. Naturally I’ll be keen on helping you over the see executive responsibilities, but likewise, even facets of your life I would imagine would fall under my purview. Don’t worry, I’m not about to set a bed time for you. Yet. But I’m likely to insist upon you taking care of yourself even when you might not necessarily want to. For instance, a month on into your tenure now and your s

"I'm trying to get some time on for some exercise and yoga trust me" She says as she pauses to adjust her leg which was folded on top of each other. "But I'm still not there, there's a lot of stuff to be organised related to work than life. But as you've said and rightly pointed out that it has just been a month and I look tired" She said with a sigh at the end of those words looking at him sipping on his coffee. "But if I may say this" She says leaning a little forward towards him. "How do you manage to look fresh and handsome all the time? It's well past 12 but you look like you've just woken up on a fresh morning" She said with a wide smile on her face leaning back again as she looks at Evan who she thought blushed a little probably. "Oh and you need to answer this question because this would be one part of your job. You need to help me stay young and fit like you" She said teasing him a bit more and probably breaking any possibility of ice left between them. Gwen clearly could see that her and Evan can really make a difference together. @OhRyæn

“Well, having a mere few billion available to keep up with one’s maintenance certainly does help.” He gave her a charming smile, clearly just kidding. His striking green eyes resting upon the young professional, dipping from her own eyes and towards her cheeks, jawline, and neck. As if assessing her complexion and generally facial and skeletal structure. “Truthfully? A lot of it has to do with genetics, unless you’re looking to go under the knife, but even then there’s only so much outside intervention can do to improve one’s looks, especially if the underlying framework is a mess to begin with.” He said. “Which, by the way, President Reynolds, is not something you specifically need to be concerned of. You didn’t ask, but from what I can tell you certainly have an enviable facial structure. In short, you are attractive. Which I think you already know, but as I said, genetics play a big role, but hardly the only role. Some would claim the priciest moisturizers, supplements, and various exotic procedures are necessary, which predominantly excludes those without enough disposable income, but again, that’s a falsehood. It helps sure I won’t deny that, but it’s not necessary.” Evan took a sip of his coffee before setting it on the table and stood up, pushing the table back away from the couch to open up some room. “All the trendy regimens in the world won’t automatically make a person youthful if all they ever do is focus on the outside and do nothing to nurture what lays beneath the surface. Come up-“ He offered his hand to her, wishing for her to stand. “Considering I’ll be advising you I’m ultimately going to be intimately familiar with your personal life anyway, so there’s no sense in hiding it. It’s common place for most people to tell their doctors that they regularly exercise, even if they’re lying. So when I ask you these questions I would ask you be truthful, ultimately I’m going to find out the truth eventually, so you’d save us both some time.
03:30
Now then-“ Assuming she would have stood for him, Evan guided her to stand so her back was facing him, and his warm hands moved to her neck. “Truthfully speaking, when’s the last time you did some yoga? I’m going to be able to feel how stiff your muscles are anyway, so there’s no shame in saying it’s been a while. I know you’ve been busy.” He said, gently kneading her neck to get a feel of her musculature.
