I freeze for a second, his arm around my waist tightens and his hand goes frok my cheek to th back of my neck, urging me forward, urging me to kiss him back.
Here we go, highly inappropriate if you ask me but I'll let it continue until his cellphone rings or you break something.
I ignore the voice in my head and focus more on his lips moving roughly against mine, I move my lips against his at a much slower pace but soon I return the same pace.
By now the dress is halfway way to pooling around my legs, his hand leaves my neck and trails down every curve of my body.
He takes a step back into his room, I shrug my dress down and jump over it following him in. He closes the door by pushing me against it, I hiss lowly in his mouth.
His mouth leaves mine and starts leaving quick kisses along my jawline and neck, I moan when he sucks on the V of my collarbone, my hands move up his back feeling every pull of his muscles to his silky hair.
I arch my back giving him much better access to my breasts, his one hand moulds one and his lips attack the other.
I feel myself getting wetter when he bites down on my hardened nipple then swirling his tongue around it to soothe the pain.
The sound of ringing catches my attention and my boss's too.
F*ck.
He stops for a second and when the ringing stops he continues, all thoughts in my head disappearing but the ringing comes again and we both groan.
I told you.
He steps away from my leaving me cold and hot at the same time, my chest is heaving up and down my mind racing with a million thoughts at once.
Isn't this the time you realise that you were just about to sleep with your boss?
F*ck.
Exactly.
My eyes widen in realization, my hands instinctively come to my chest covering what I can. I look down and realize that I'm in nothing but my underwear.
Looking up I see Mr Grey busy on the phone, his hair is ruffled up from my hands. His back turned to me allowing me to admire the move of his muscles.
And this is the time you get your clothes and run.
Except that I don't have any of my clothes, I look to my left and see his clothes laying neatly on the leather couch.
I take the shirt and slowly open the door then shut it behind me, immediately I start buttoning up the shirt and taking my dress into my hands.
I am so fired.
I run into the room I was in, grab my shoes and purse then rush to the elevator. As the doors close I see his figure appear the corner, I knew it couldn't have been long before he noticed my disappearance.
Sighing when the doors are fully closed, I lean against the wall panting like I just ran a marathon.
What in the world did I just do? Not only was about to sleep with my boss, I made the first move and now I'm running away knowing very well I'll be seeing him in a day's time.
Told you you'd regret it.
I groan in annoyance, the elevator door opens and I walk out. I'm sure I look crazy, in a dress shirt that reaches just below my butt, hair messed up and face flushed dragging a dress with me.
I get a few looks from people but ignore them and rush outside to catch a cab home.
*~*~*~*
"Mm..." I moan when a bright light shines over my closed eyelids.
"Rosaleigh." I place the covers over my face groaning in protest.
"Why did I hear you enter the house at three a.m? And who in the world's shirt are you wearing?" Lia interrogates.
I open my eyes to the darkness beneath the sheets, "Get me a cup of coffee and I'll explain everything." Not long after I hear my door close.
I take the sheets away and stare at the ceiling, everything coming back to me. His scent is still very strong on his shirt, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't like it.
Getting up I go to the connected bathroom and brush my teeth then wash my face and do my business. When I get out Lia is on my made bed with two cups of coffee on a tray and a whole bowl of fruit on the side.
I take a seat by the headboard and close my eyes, when I open them again Julia is staring intently at me mainly my collarbone.
"You clearly had fun." She giggles taking a sip of her coffee, I take my cup and do the same.
"I heard Grey and Rimini got into a fight." She mentions, my eyes widen.
"I thought Nic solved that." I whisper to myself but loud enough for her to hear.
"Clearly not, it's all over the news and magazines along with pictures of you and Grey at the red carpet, you guys walking out to the car and a certain hotel." She wiggles her eyebrows making me blush.
"Full story, now." I sigh and open my mouth to tell her everything and I mean everything.
By the end of it we are both looking up at my ceiling, a goofy smile on my face. "I knew you liked him!" Lia laughs flipping over to look at me.
"I don't like him, I think it was just the heat of the moment. And it's been long..." I trail off, she smirks.
"Then how come you've been glowing throughout this conversation and extra glowing when you spoke about the moment at the hotel and later at the hotel again?" She inquires making me blush.
"I haven't been glowing, you're just overreacting. Now go, I have to visit dad." I playfully shove her away sitting up.
She props her self up and smiles wickedly at me, "Yeah I know it's the wrong thing to do but I kinda want to. Say your name while our tongues are tied. Getting shivers run down my spine. Were imbed– were imbedded in my mind.
"Don't say it's unholy, if I let you come hold me. I know it's wrong that I want to be here in your arms but tonight I'm so lonely. Don't say it's unholy..." She sings grinning like an idiot, I throw my pillow at her and rush to the bathroom while she continue singing.
I need a new best friend.
*~*~*~*
"Morning Rosie." I smile when Nic enters the elevator.
"Morning Nicholas." I return, he turns to me with a large grin on his face making me raise an eyebrow.
"You're happy." I state, he frowns slightly.
"What reason do I have not to, despite that this hasn't disappeared yet and the news was still leaked out and we have a lawsuit to deal with, nothing at all." He grins then frowns.
"But I am concerned about what made you so gloomy this morning." He asks.
I mean the fact that I was allowed in by the guards and Nic is talking to me right now, does ensure that I still have my job right?
Yeah...
"Nothing, just tired. That's all." I shrug, he's about to question my answer but the doors open before he can.
We both step out and he heads in the direction of Grey's office and I to mine.
Everything is still in place, that's a good sign.
I do my usual routine, responding to emails, confirming meetings and finishing what I was unable to the day before until seven hits.
As I step out of my office I bump into an angry looking Jared, his face softens a bit when he sees me. "Sorry." He apologizes.
I furrow my eyebrows, "what's wrong?" I ask, he shakes his head dismissing me.
I want to probe but I can tell he isn't in the mood, "okay, I'll see you at lunch okay?" He nods silently and walks away.
I force a smile on my face and knock on my boss's door, he doesn't reply but I open the door nonetheless.
He is seated behind his desk, "Morning sir." Silence.
I spot the stacks of papers on his table and go gather them in my hands, he doesn't even look up to show that he notices me.
My fake smile falls, I take the papers and head to my office to do my work.
*~*~*~*
Throughout the morning he only communicated with me through either the phone or sticky notes on papers, but he didn't even request for me to join him in the meetings to take down minutes.
The phone rings for the twelfth time in the last six hours, I pick it up and end the call then go to his office.
"Have these sorted out before lunch." He orders, I look at the files and papers. Atop the papers is a sticky note that tells me to have them all faxed and the files I have to order with the rest of the other files.
I look at him for a minute, he did this on purpose. He knows that usually this would take me over an hour and a half and there's like thirty minutes until lunch.
I may not be fired but he is showing me flames today, the work he's given me up until now is a day's worth.
I thank God that I took off my heels in the office, because I'm going to be standing for what seems like forever.
*~*~*~*
"Thank God." I groan standing up from the floor, adjusting my skirt.
An hour spent on faxing and another hour spent on ordering those files. I swear this is enough motivation to keep me from kissing my boss ever again, let alone running out on him.
I see no stacks of papers on the table and sigh in relief, at least I'll get a few minutes to e–
"Put on your shoes we're going downtown." I narrow my eyes at my boss.
I silently head to my office put on my shoes, grab my purse and an apple. I meet my boss in the elevator and silently head to the lobby then outside where Aaron is waiting for us.
I smile at him and enter the car, surprisingly Nic is already inside, leaving me to sit in between the two.
He gives me a smile which I return, then after a few minutes all of us are busy with something on our phones.
Hey, do u know what was up with J this morning?
~R
Didn't he tell you?
~A
My eyebrows furrow, a part of me suspected that something bad happened but it couldn't be that bad.
No...
~R
I know I shouldn't be telling you but he tolds us that Grey fired him because he thinks that he's been stealing from him.
~A
What?!
~R
Pls tell me you know it isn't true, J would never do such in all the seven years he's been working for Grey has there ever been a problem between the two.
~A
I look at my boss frowning, I switch off my phone and lean back into my seat. If what Joanna's saying is true then I'm the reason why he got fired.
From the moment I met Jared Grey developed some kind of distate for him, the assumed flirting and questioned work.
I sit silently until we reach our destination.
