Chương 12: Lunch with Ms. Grant
Jess looked at her watch, noting the time 7:29 A.M. Her eyes trailed up back to the elevator, seeing that the elevator was about to reach the 80th floor. Both Stevie and Bailey were at their usual positions by the elevator, looking professional as ever.
She glanced back at her watch: 7:30 AM. The elevator let out a and opened, allowing Lena and Kara to step off.
Jess bit down her squeal once she saw that Lena and Kara matched again. Lena, with a beautiful green pantsuit, looking like the boss that she is, and Kara with a green bow tie collar.
"Good morning, Ms Luthor." Jess, Bailey and Stivie said in unison. Jess walked closer to the brunette and handed her a folder.
"Good morning everyone." Lena took the folder. Kara let out a small bark, her whole body practically shaking.
Jess raised an eyebrow at the Golden pup. "Kara sure is energetic today." Kara's tail wagged furiously.
Lena let out a chuckle. "She was fidgety the whole ride here. Would you three mind keeping her occupied while I work?" Lena glanced down the rather long hallway. "I'm sure she just wants to run around. I may take her to the park for a walk tomorrow."
"We would love to, Ms. Luthor." Jess took Kara's leash, opening the door to Lena's office allowing the brunette to walk in. "I will let you know when Shaun is here to take you to Catco."
"Thank you, Jess." Lena turned to look at Kara. "Be good for Jess, okay?"
Kara let out a small yip, her tongue hanging out of her mouth.
Lena walked into her office, and Jess closed the door behind her.
Kara's ears perked up and she turned quickly towards the sound. Jess turned around as well, and saw that Bailey was holding a tennis ball in his hand. Stevie, who was on the other other side of the elevator, had an amused look in his eyes.
"We both know you wanted to play with her since yesterday." Bailey tossed Jess the ball. Jess glances towards Kara, who seemed to crouch the slightest bit. Bailey walked over to Kara, gently removing the green leash, and placing it on Jess's desk, before walking over to his usual position.
----------------------------------------------------
Kara kept her eyes on the ball. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't keep her body from shaking. It was an overwhelming sensation, one that she couldn't push down. Her body screamed at her to move, to run, to jump. Anything to expel the amount of energy she was feeling.
"Ready?" Jess moved closer to her desk. Kara kept her eyes on the ball.
"Fetch!" Jess threw the ball down the hall. Kara immediately ran after it, the only thought going through her mind being She pounced on the ball, pushing it down with her front paws before grabbing it with her mouth, biting down.
Kara kept biting, laying on her back, pawing at it with her front paws.
"Come here, Kara! Bring it back!" Kara heard Jess call out to her. She kept the ball in her mouth and turned over, running over to Jess. She dropped the ball in Jess's hand, and got ready to run again.
It was going to be a fun couple of hours.
----------------------------------------------------
Lena raised her head a bit, wincing at the pain in her neck from leaning over. She reached over and pressed the button on the desk phone. "Yes, Jess?"
"Shaun is here to take you to Catco, Ms. Luthor. I have Kara ready to go." Jess's voice sounded tired through the small speaker.
"Very well. I will be right out." Lena stood up, grimacing as she moved from a position she had been in for the past couple of hours. She logged out of her computer, and put away all the paperwork she had been working on, placing them in a secure drawer of her desk.
She grabbed her purse, and walked over to the doors of her office, opening one of them, and walked out to see Kara and Jess waiting. Kara was sitting down, her tail gently wagging. Lena spotted some dog tags attached to Kara's collar. "The dog tags arrived?"
Jess perked up a bit. "Oh yes. I forgot to mention. My apologies. The dog tags have Kara's name and have the address to your penthouse on it along with one of your phone numbers. " Jess handed over the leash to Lena. "Shaun is ready downstairs."
"We should be back in about an hour." Lena walked towards the elevator, with Kara and Stevie trailing behind her.
"See you soon Ms. Luthor."
----------------------------------------------------
Kara couldn't help but smile once they got off the elevator at Catco. It was comforting to be back at Catco. The noises of frantically typing, the occasional drawers being opened, the sounds of pens writing on paper. '
Kara sniffed, smelling something heavy.
"What are you doing here?" A male voice asked in a dark tone. Kara turned a bit and saw that it was James, who seemed to radiate anger. Kara sniffed again.Kara got closer to Lena, feeling her hackles start to rise a little. She tried her best to calm herself, yet a part of her screamed to protect.
"Mr. Olsen." Lena's voice was professional. Kara could sense Lena's unease.
"Ms. Luthor, Ms Grant is waiting for you in her office." Eve came over between the two, appearing to be as enthusiastic as ever. "Please follow me."
Lena followed Eve, with Kara trailing behind the brunette. Kara could still smell the anger, and it made her sneeze. Kara glanced behind her, and saw James huff before walking away. Kara thought sadly.
Eve led them to Cat's office, opening the doors, allowing them to walk in. "Ms. Grant, Ms. Luthor is here."
Once Kara saw Cat, she couldn't help but feel her tail start to wag.
It was nice to see her boss. Despite the weird circumstances.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eve closed the doors to Cat's office.
"Ms. Luthor, please sit down." Cat stood up from her usual position behind her large desk to sit on one of her uncomfortable couches. Cat gestured towards the brunette, who sat down on the opposite couch. Kara sat down near Lena's feet, eyeing the older blonde.
"Thank you for inviting me for lunch, Ms. Grant. Although, I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting it." Lena rested her purse to her left, still holding Kara's leash loosely in her hand. Kara was a well behaved puppy, but Lena wasn't taking any chances.
