Let's talk

I have finally managed to track down my manager! I got hold of him yesterday via text message and I think I ended up scaring him a little!
Me - “Sonny, I really need to speak to you urgently. Call me ASAP”
Much later in the day he finally replied “Hey Kel, sorry I haven’t been answering, my phones fucked up. What’s up?”
Me - “Can you call me from a different phone?”
Sonny - “Is it that important?”
Me - “Sort of yeah. I’d rather talk about it than text.”
Sonny - “Can you call me in store tomorrow? I’ll be back in then.”
This morning I text him requesting that he calls me from the cordless phone. Last thing I wanted was the other guys listening in and gossiping about me too. A couple of minutes later my phone rang. “Work - landline”. I answered and was quick to tell him he needed to go somewhere quiet and private, away from the other employees. He sounded rather panicked which made me fell a bit better, if the rumours about my job were true I wanted him to feel crap as he was supposed to be a friend and I had done plenty to help him out in the past on a more personal basis as well as getting him out of sticky situations at work.
He had a usual flirty comeback “you just wanna talk dirty to me, don’t you? I know what you’re like Kel”
“You know I always want to talk dirty to you sonny boy” I replied in a sultry tone. Once I heard the door code being entered and the locks snap shut behind him I knew that I would be safe to talk to him.
“Right, talk to me, you’re getting me really nervous now.” He said sounding a little shaky.
“Well, I don’t know where to start… To put it simply I have heard a rumour from a couple of people now saying that my job is not safe and that I will be put into a sales role when I come back. Please tell me that is not true?” I said laying it down in front of him, bluntly and straight to the point I thought!
“You what? I haven’t heard anything about that.” He said, sounding genuinely shocked. “I’ll speak to HR and the regional manager, they would know about it if that was the case.”
He hung up and about half an hour later he called me back to confirm that it was just a rumour and that my job was safe. “Thanks for scaring me half to death by the way! I’ve had enough of doing your job as well as mine! I need you back here!”
“Me scare you?! Think how I have been feeling, I’m looking for a new house at the moment too!” Cheeky git!
I now don’t know whether Sarah had really heard that I was being demoted on return from sick leave or if she is trying to get to me some how… Hmmm… I shall have to ponder on that one I think.
