Lousiana: New Orleans.
7:30 am.
"Leigh has started again mummy!"
Derrick Williams, 10 years old. The first born in the William's household. He is this withdrawn kid, taken to be hostile by people. Which is a little bit true, Derrick is cold to everyone in their age group except his sister. He has a soft spot for her, which Leigh definitely often take advantage of.
"Cry baby." Leigh Williams.
She's seven years old. She has this bitchy attitude, tells people off using unkind and sometimes offensive language, but deep down she doesn't mean it. She thinks being nice is overrated...at seven. But she's pretty. Unlike Derry who took most of his mother's features, she was more like her dad.
"I'm not a cry baby."
"They'll never change." Ray whispered to his wife who was watching his kids argue in awe.
Ray Williams. Stereotyping someone without sounding offensive is bad, but that's the only way to get to know him. Ray is stereotyped as feminine by many, you know the hurdle most asian guys go through. He is not pure Asian though. His mother was Asian and most of his features were got from her. He is both pretty and handsome. And definitely gentle.
Laura watched as her kids argue in awe. Her gentle hazel eyes, which Derrick definitely got from her, flickered in admiration. It was ten years since she got Derrick, three years later, Leigh came by. While growing up, ideas of how parenting was hard was planted into her minds but now as she looked at the two children, she felt proud. Parenting wasn't hard after all.
"Not when Leigh knows she has him wrapped under her fingers." Laura commented to which Ray chuckled.
"You should stop spoiling her." She added. It was true. Ray spoiled the girl so much. Nobody was allowed to touch her whether he was or was not home. So Leigh's stubbornness definitely was contributed to by her father.
They have been married for nine years now. Gossips around the city claim that it was a rush marriage and that Ray would not have married Laura if she was not expecting his baby.
The two, however, never tried correcting the romours about them.Only those close to them knew that Ray had proposed to Laura at her eighteenth birthday celebration...yeah the marriage plans were there even before she got pregnant.
The two had been friends since childhood. Their parents had been close so they grew up together. All their childhood straight into teenage life and now even in adulthood, they were together.
Ray was gone of her, always spoiling and protecting her. That fondness developed into an affair and Laura got pregnant. The big question was,however, whether he was doing that...protecting and spoiling...as a lover or a brother. He believes he loved her and Laura also believed her loved her because he had never given her any reasons to doubt that.
"I didn't hear you complain when i was doing that to you." Ray smirked. Laura's attempts to frown failed miserably and the two burst out laughing.
At twenty two when he had gotten engaged to Laura, he was just starting his advertising agency.The R&L advertising agency overtime grew to become the most famous advertising agency in the county. Each time they reminisced the past, Ray always had this glow on his face whenever he talked about his company.His belief was that Laura was his lucky charm. "My life wouldn't have been the same without you." That was his common phrase. And it was true. His life wouldn't have been the same without her.
And maybe...his best friend Alex.
Laura looking back at those two still arguing, decided to save Derrick. He was the weakest before Leigh always leaning on her mum to help him.
"Leigh give Derry his book now."
Did she just use the commanding tone on her? Whenever she used that tone, nobody argued with her, not even Ray.
"Your dad will drive you to school today." She stared in amusement at Ray nodding his head rapidly. Sometimes she often wondered why all of them treated her as the boss of the house.
However to Ray, that was his way of showing his love and affection. He vowed never to go against her wishes since she accepted his love.
"Be safe." He gave her a peck on her lips as he left with the kids.
Laura stared at them leaving and she couldn't wish for more...yeah that was her perfect family and she wouldn't trade it for anything else.
~~~
Laura is at R&L.The employees are giving her the admiration look.Yeah that's their lady boss.
Why is she here?
Ray had forgotten a very important folder at home.The previous night he had asked her to remind him to carry it to the office the following day.It seemed both had forgotten.
Words were spreading throughout the agency about the arrival of the lady boss.It seemed she had interrupted the agency's activities.
The lively chart amongst the employees suddenly stopped.Laura wondered what was going on but one look at the other side of the room, she understood.Their boss was here. And his gaze was directed at her. She didn't understand why he was giving her that smitten look...or maybe she did. For heavens sake they were in public.
Wait! Was he walking towards her? What about that intense stare at her lips?Things were not looking good for her. She had to find him a distraction or else he was going to kiss her literally in front of his subjects.
A phone call.
It worked. Ray stared at the caller ID...wifey and chuckled softly. He understood what she was trying to communicate . He tried behaving normally, took her hands and led her towards the private elevator. He extended the 'normal' facade until they were in his office...behind closed doors before he pinned her to the wall kissing her intensely but also controlling himself...he didn't want to be rough on her.
He kissed he deeply before his tongue went down her neck. She felt his hands move between her legs, his palm pressing gently in the middle while his middle finger seeking for an entrance."You are wet." Yeah she was wet and aroused way before even they got into that elevator.He moved his lips back to her lips kissing her. " I really want to have you now," he said while breathing heavily. He took her hands and guided them to his length..."feel that.I'm literally hard right now." Why was he talking too much then? His fingers down there were already making it hard for her to control herself.She needed a release.
A knock at the door.
"Shit!" Both of them cursed at the same time.He led her gently to the resting room before opening the door.
"The clients have arrived Mr.William."
He almost forgot about the meeting scheduled at 10:00 am that morning.
"Thanks Nora." He said to the now blushing secretary.Ray shook his head in amusement before going back to the room at the back...his resting room.
He found Laura already dressed.Ray gave her an apologetic look.
"I understand." Laura kissed him one last time before leaving for home.
