A Problem Rises
(Y/N) got to know everyone at the offices whenever they'd pass by her. She thought they were all great people and her love for this job grew even more. (Y/N) was stationed in the similar area where Max was, along with Jordan, Tim, and Corey. (Y/N) was on the empty wall next to Tim; she didn't mind it.
(Y/N) was playing around with the editing software and practicing on extra content, something that looked like Minecraft X-run. Her finger was clicking away on the buttons.
(Y/N) was familiar with Minecraft. She used to play it senior year in high school until junior year in college. Now, going back to the game, there are more updates and features that (Y/N) needed to get to know more someday. But right now, she'd might as well work with what she's been given.
*ring ring*
(Y/N)'s phone suddenly went off, cutting her from her focus on the computer. She took her phone out of her pocket and decided to walk away from the room with all the editors to avoid distracting them.
She looked at the contact on her screen,
Josh
her ex boyfriend back in louisiana..
"Hello?" (Y/N) spoke into the microphone feeling quite nervous, hoping nothing serious was going to happen. (Y/N) hoped it was just small talk.
"Hello, (Y/N)? Hey baby how are you?" Josh's voice came through the line. (Y/N) groaned crossing her arms, leaning against the hallway wall.
"Don't 'hey baby' me. What do you want? I'm working." (Y/N) sighed, her heart racing one hundred times faster in her chest. "I wanted to say I'm sorry for being a cry baby when you left Louisiana. And you have a job already??" Josh's voice turned into curiosity.
(Y/N) rolled her eyes. "Yes I have a job. And I broke up with you for a reason!" "I know I know, baby. But I want it to be like how it was two weeks ago." Josh pleaded...like a baby.
Behind the call, Max was carrying some paper work to the printer to make copies. He stopped in his tracks when he saw (Y/N), back facing him as she took a phone call.
"Josh there is now way I'm going back to Louisiana!!" (Y/N) yelled into her phone.
Max listened closely and quietly, a good distance away from (Y/N). He knows he shouldn't be eaves dropping, but hell, working is boring.
"No!! Josh, I don't care!! I have a job here anyways!"
"You are not coming here!! Joshua!!" (Y/N) kept on yelling clearly getting frustrated.
Max began to get a little worried about what could be going on between (Y/N) and this guy named Josh. So Max, probably being stupid, walked up to (Y/N) and tapped her shoulder.
"I'm not getting back together with you!! I-" (Y/N) turned to see Max with a concerned expression.
And the most stupidest idea came to her mind to hopefully end this call.
"-I have a boyfriend!!!" (Y/N) practically screamed into the phone while looking at Max.
Max's eyes widened as they looked down at (Y/N). (Y/N) was shocked as Max was. The line on the phone went dead between (Y/N) and Josh.
(Y/N) quickly put the phone on speaker so Max could hear, since (apparently) he's part of this too.
"W-who is he?" Josh's voice broke into the line.
"His name is Max."
Max jumped backwards in shock putting his hands up in defense. He mouth 'are you fucking serious?!' (Y/N) only shrugged as Josh was still speaking.
"I-I can't believe this. (Y/N)..."
"What?" Said back into her phone trying to sound pissed.
"I already boarded the plane. There's no going back now..."
(Y/N) complete lost her shit at this point. Almost everyone in the offices heard her as she left the hallway to go scream at Josh.
"JOSH ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY?! YOU BOOK A PLANE TO COME TO WASHINGTON AND YOU DON'T EVEN TELL ME UNTIL YOU BOARD?! WHAT KIND OF SHIT IS THIS?!"
Max went back to his desk, completely forgetting about coping the papers. He was struck with shock. Max shook it off him and sat down quietly.
"What was that about?" Jordan turned in his chair pulling down his headphones. Max shook his head trying to forget about it.
"I'm (Y/N)'s 'boyfriend' now."
The guys in the editing area were also stunned. That is until (Y/N) came back into the area, phone is hand.
"Guys I'm sorry if you heard that. I didn't mean to yell." (Y/N) sighed feeling slightly bad for disrupting almost everyone.
"Woah I heard screaming. Is someone dying?" Michael, or Red, came in looking around. Tim, sitting in the corner shook his head.
"Everything's fine, Red. My idiotic boyfriend who I broke up with wanted to get back together." (Y/N) explained running her hand through her hair.
"Oooo drama!!" Adam came in grinning. But he dropped the smirk when he saw (Y/N) in distress.
"Oh my god what did I miss?" Adam asked against everyone's silent reactions.
Ross, John, or Barney, Em, and Ethan also came into the scene. (Y/N) couldn't be any more happier (sarcasm). Then again, the offices do have thin walls.
"Before I moved here, my boyfriend, Josh, didn't want me to leave. He was being a baby about it so I broke up with him because I know he's just gonna annoy me and try to keep 'a long distance relationship.'" (Y/N) took a pause thinking about what to say next.
"Now he called me and he's taking a plane right now to meet me. And I didn't want him to just go 'you're my girlfriend now, huhu.'" (Y/N) mocked a buff guy's voice. Everyone laughed at her small humor.
"So.." (Y/N) said uneasily looking at Max. "When Max passed by, I told Josh he was my boyfriend." (Y/N) shrugged looking down feeling her cheeks heat up. Max was sitting on his chair with his head resting on his fist.
"Max, I didn't mean to get you into this. You happened to walk past me so you were the first person I could think of." (Y/N) stepped closer to Max, making him look up at her.
"It's fine, I guess. I mean I'm not actually in a relationship with you." Max laughed it off.
Soon everyone left the area to go back to work.
"He might arrive tomorrow. Is it alright if you come at my house? And at least pretend you're 'in love' with me." (Y/N) chuckled using her fingers a quotes. Max chuckled bobbing his head down.
"Yeah I guess. If this guy is pushing you to get back with him, then he needs to learn a lesson about moving on."
