Aditus' prompts and circumstances - 19. From bad to worse # 430

strong>Prompt 430 – Creative
Tag – Something Special
You hate blind dates and avoid them like the plague. Unfortunately, you didn’t find yourself a date for one of the most important events you company is holding. When you boss finds out, she says she has the perfect date for you. When you ask she simply says your date is “something special.” What is your blind date like?

From bad to worse

Alex was utterly and truly pissed. Every year had he managed to avoid his company’s fundraiser. There was always something. A wedding, a funeral, a sudden illness, you name it, he’d had it all used over the last few years. This time, he hadn’t have any idea yet, when his boss had cornered him in the elevator. Too early for him to have a plan ready, he’d said the first thing that came to mind. ‘I don’t have a date for the evening.’ Stupid. Just stupid.

Because that was when he’d remembered the most hated part of the whole event: The bachelor/bachelorette auction. His boss had grinned like the cat that finally got the canary.

So there he stood in front of his boss’ office, wearing black dress pants and a white shirt as ordered, and wondered what the hell he was doing here, while the others only had to show up at the ballroom in time for the auction. He knocked at the door and heard a very amused ‘Come in, Alex!’

VP Dianna Mendez looked stunning in her dark blue, velvet dress, her blonde hair in the perfect chignon as always, her eyes sparkling with something real evil. That didn’t bode well; the woman had too much fun. Then Alex gaze fell on the thing she was holding in her hand: A silver sequined jacket. “Hurry up! We’re already late and you have a date with a mic, sir, because you are our emcee for tonight.”

Shit! Shit! Double Shit!

I'm slowly starting writing again.

So a bright and shiny sparkly jacket so he can emcee. I bet he wishes he was doing anything else. Could be worse though. He could be one of the bachelors. Next year he will have an excuse, even if he has to break his arm to get it. :lol:

Ha, yes I'm sure he looks fabulous and next year he'll start to eat all the food from the back of the fridge to invite a stomach bug...or he breaks his arm. Thanks Wayne, for your comments and the idea.
