Alexis just glanced away and rolled her eyes. Bobby was so comical, yet so embarassing. How could he forget his own underwear? She sighed and noded, smiling back at him.
"All right. Let's show you how to really make an impression on the Guid-man."
"Guid-man?" she asked then shook her head, quickly dismissing it. What was up with the nicknames?
She headed out into the aisle and waited for Bobby to finish up in the cube so he could show her. She knew the way to the office, but was strangely anxious about going to see Guido.

All eyes were on the pair as they walked out of Bobby's cube together and carried the smoothie toward Guido's office. Whispers spread across the floor, carrying scandalous comments on hushed winds. Bobby was oblivious.
"Man," he exclaimed enthusiastically as they traipsed through the room where they were the center of attention, "THAT was refreshing!" There was at least one woman who gasped in shock.
Heading down to the elevator, Bobby pushed the button. He glanced at the smoothie which honestly didn't look quite right if he were going to be honest. Which he wasn't. "You wanna make sure this thing tastes all right?"

Red stained her cheeks as they headed to the elevator. She could hear their whispers and even though she couldn't tell what they were saying, she knew it probably had something to do with them.
"THAT was refreshing!"
She threw Bobby a nasty glare, but he was probably as oblivious to it just like the whispers.
"You wanna make sure this thing tastes all right?"
Her expression changed from humiliated to angry, to disgusted. Did he really expect her to taste that thing? "Um...not really," she admitted.

AJ was giving him a strange look. Must be some kind of chick thing, Bobby reasoned to himself and shrugged it off. Was it his fault he didn’t get it? She declined the offer to taste the smoothie, and if he wasn’t mistaken had a bit of a disgusted look on her face.
“Aw come on,” Bobby said as the elevator doors opened up. “You’ve had worse in your mouth.” There were more gasps and horrified expressions from some of the gossips in the office as Bobby and AJ got in the elevator and the doors slid shut behind them.
“Guido’s all right,” he said to AJ with a smile. “Nothing to be afraid of at all.” His heart was already beginning to speed up as the elevator began its ascent.

“Aw come on." She glanced up as the elevator doors opened and she stepped in with Bobby. “You’ve had worse in your mouth.”
"Excuse me!" she yelled, glad that the doors were closed behind them. She had already had enough embarassing stares.
She looked at the smile Bobby gave her when he said Guido was alright. She let a heavy sigh escaped her lips silently as the elevator began to ascend. "Whatever you say...."

The elevator stopped and the doors swished open again. Bobby was by no means an ‘expert’ on body language, but he was starting to suspect that something might be on AJ’s mind.
Keeping the smoothie cool with his right hand, Bobby looked over at her while they stepped out. “You okay? You look kind of...ghostly.”
Man, he was too funny!
His beeper went off, and Bobby checked it with one hand while they headed down to Guido’s oversized door. “Aw crap, Tiff’s lookin’ for me,” he said. Bobby did some real fast calculations in his head and looked back at AJ suddenly.
“I think you’re ready,” he said with a nod. Smoothie in hand, he held it out to her. “Make me proud.”

“You okay? You look kind of...ghostly.”[/b
Her jaw slacked in disbelief. Oh no he didn't! Did he actually expect to make a joke like that and get away with it?
His beeper went off before she had the chance to do something about it and she glanced at the smoothie and back at him. She grabbed it from him and looked at the door that loomed over them. "You owe me," she hissed as she grabbed the smoothie and walked over to Guido's door, staring at it.

Guido wrenched the door open, shouting into his cell phone.
"I will smash your face into a car windshield, and then take your mother out for a nice seafood dinner and NEVER call her again!"
He looked down at the young woman standing awkwardly next to the door, holding a drink in her hand.
"WHAT?! Oh, smoothie."
He snatched the drink out of her hand, frowning. Usually that weird kid brought him his drinks. What was his name again? Billy? Buddy? Tim? Oh well. Interns came and went with alarming and mysterious frequency around Guido.
He took a sip, and frowned. The smoothies around here were usually pretty good. This one...wasn't bad, really. There was just something kinda different.
He took another sip. Yeah, there was something else in this. He handed it back to the young woman.
"This taste funny ta you?"

"I will smash your face into a car windshield, and then take your mother out for a nice seafood dinner and NEVER call her again!"
She blinked rapidly and looked from the giant mass of muscle that was Guido Carosella then back to the smoothie. She quickly handed it to him.
She didn't know if she should stay or run as he sipped on the drink, but was surprised when he handed it back to her. Was something wrong with it?
"This taste funny ta you?"
Did she look like a taste tester? She put her lips to the straw and took a sip. She wondered if the strange tingling sensation in her face was due to the fact her eye was twitching or the way the smoothie tasted.
She quickly handed it back to him and gave a forced smile. "Nope! Tastes fine to me!"
