Chapter 5 - Meal (2)

Mirabel's POV

'Did the boss just asked me to address me by his first name?' I thought to myself

"You are beautiful Mirabel, I'd like for you to keep me company for sometime, if you please, its really boring working alone". 'Hmm, he's asking me to keep him company which is so weird'

"Well sir, sorry Bryan wouldn't I cause a distraction to your work?" I asked

"No not at all, in fact you're exactly what I needed for the moment"

'Not that I feel like leaving just because I hadn't had breakfast'

"Ok I will, but not for long" I replied,

"Sure" He said

"I'm so hungry, what would you like to eat" He asked, 'Gosh how does he know I'm hungry'

"Um, anything you have Bryan" 'What!! I just called him by his name'.

He took out his phone and placed an order before going to his seat and I also sat down, playing games on my phone.

I can't even concentrate on my game, I kept stealing glances at him as he worked and for a moment I thought I saw him smirk or was it my imagination.

All I could think of is those lips on mine kissing me senseless, I just stared at his lips as he moved them, sometimes twisting them or biting them as if to think of something immensely. He lifted his eyes from his laptop and I immediately went back to my game, trying not to stare at him.

'Gosh, he's so hot' I thought to myself

He closed his laptop and walked to where the sofa was and sat operating his phone.

"Mirabel, come and join me here" He said, I stood up and went to sit on the sofa by the far right corner of the office, I sat crossing my leg making my skirt go a bit upwards exposing one-third of my laps, which I didn't notice until I saw him staring.

I followed his line of sight and 'shit!!' I pulled my skirt downwards covering my laps and feeling extremely embarrassed.

"I'm sorry are you comfortable?" He asked

"Yea, I'm good" I replied taking my gaze away from him

He shifted closer to me and placed on my shoulders smiling, I was shocked but the next thing that followed got me dumbstruck.

He ran his fingers from my shoulders to my arm and then slowly playing with my palms, jolts of fireworks exploded in my brain and I gasped for air, sensing my reaction he immediately pulled his hands away, but my cheeks and ears burned red, making him chuckle.

I felt like the ground should open and swallow me up, I was so shy. I had always been this bold and outspoken girl, but right now I was so shy, especially from the way he chuckled.

'knock, knock, knock' Was heard from the door

"Mirabel can you please get the door?" He asked

I stood up and went straight to open the door and found a tall guy with a carton, he smiled and said

"Good morning ma'am, food delivery" He handed me the package

"Please sign here, ma'am" he said, I took the paper and signed

"Thanks" I replied

"Enjoy your meal ma'am" He said and left.
