ROLEPLAY HQ - workers-to-lovers

Aofie was young, she had taken a break from college. She was still trying to figure out what she wanted in life. In the meantime Aofie was lucky enough to secure an office job in a local company. When she arrived for her first day, it was clear that she was younger than the rest of the new hires. Aofie was only 23, still so inexperienced in life. That wouldn’t stop her from making her mark here, she was determined to fit in. Who knows, maybe one day she would climb this company’s ladder. Everyone was introduced in a meeting before given there tasks. Going back to her desk she was sat next to one of the new employees. He caught her eye, he was a bit older. Handsome. @Deleted User

As much as Aofie felt lost in her own inexperience, so did Finnian Wilcox, Finn for short, as he felt lost in his abundance of experience of work as a lot of the people around him felt and looked like interns compared to where he thought he would be. Almost six years out of a master's degree, the 32 year old felt like this was not the place he deserved to be, but with unemployment looming at another office and no other options available, he took this job to make sure that he had... something... until his next break would come along. He gazed around the room, his eyes bouncing from nervous face to nervous face as he would seem to be the one who lacked the nerves, but they were just not showing in the moment. He was nervous to burst... That is when he caught her appearance the first time, the long blonde hair, the luscious lips, the nervous eyes, she never looked his direction as the leaders spoke, but once they were broke off and given their own area, he would only smile as he saw her sit directly across from him, sharing the same cubicle area... "Hi, neighbor," Finn would give a soft smile as he did, "Left or right side?"

Aofie relaxed a little to hear the friendly voice give him a choice. “Right, since women are always right.” She laughed softly, winking as she sat down on the right desk chair. Taking some time to unpack some office supplies they were given as well as log into her emails and computer system for the first time. “I’m Aofie” she turned in her chair. Greeting him with a smile that she had been told was infectious at times. “It’s your first day too right? You don’t seem as nervous as everyone else.” @Deleted User

"You are definitely, right..." Finn would give a soft smile and smirk as he would pull the chair out for her as well as she would place her final stuff on the desk, "And I am Finnian Wilcox, you can call me just Finn, or yours. Whichever you like better." A little bit of selfless flirting, it would be alright, right? No need to worry about how she would respond... "First day as well, nerves are not super high, do you know Garfield and Company down the road? I use to work there before they started laying people off..."

“I’ll stick to Finn for now..” she smiled. She listened intently as he told her about being laid off. “I’m sorry that happened to you. Least you know the Ins and outs of the job then.” She once again offered him that infections smile. “Would you like to show me how to use the photo copier?” She flashed that smile again compared with a flutter of her eye lashes. @Deleted User

"If that is how you feel for now," he would say with a smile as he would turn his chair around to meet her words, "Why sure, I don't mind that at all, what are we copying? Your phone number to me?" He looked over at her with a soft smirk.

“Buy me a drink first…or wait until after you teach me something” she smiled. Following him to the photocopier. “I need a few copies of these” she handed him a piece of paper with her login details and a few other passwords/usernames “What, I’m forgetful! You’ll likely shoe me this in a weeks time again” she smiles looking back at him as he towers over her at the photocopier. When they return to their desk, she smiled reaching for her sticky notes. “You are so lucky, you’re my first sticky note!” She said as she turned around sticking his name to his forehead with a sticky note. She laughed softly at her own joke. “So I don’t forget..” she smirked. “I’m joking” she hands him an another one with her number on it. @Deleted User

"Wow," he said with a jokingly smirk following hsr hand and letting his fingers feel across her back hand as he gripped the paper, running to his desk and writing his number and the word behind beautiful across another note before slapping it to her head, playfully, "and there is mine..." @Mrs Writes 💓

Aofie was the playful type. She left the sticker on her head as she continued on with her work day. She worked silently and focused on tasks until 1330, stopping for lunch. At this point, Aofie had a bit of a headache starting and decided to pop on her glasses. It was then she knocked of the sticker still on her head. “Fuck I still had that on my head” she laughed softly “What are you doing for lunch today?” She asked @Deleted User

It wouldn't be very much longer after this that the work was beginning to be divvied up between the group of new workers, papers beginning to be placed in 'incoming' boxes on the sides of their desks by an older lady who looked like she didn't want to be there at all, she didn't even notice the note that was still sticking to Aoife's head that made Finn giggle every time he looked over to see it. She truly did forget about it, admitting so much when she turned to him and asked about lunch... "See now I was wondering when you were going to ask me out on a date, beautiful," he said with a tongue that playfully stuck out at her, "I know a Mexican place right down the street, you like Mexican?"
