“Good,” I nod pursing my lips together, “Good.”
“Well I gotta get back to work,” Danny climbs off the bench. “You want me to help you carry that back Kiddo?”
I step in putting my hand in the air, “I got it, man. Go ahead and do what you’ve got to.”
Her eyes steam into me while she thinks I’m not looking and then jerks away when I try to meet them.
Danny heads off in the golf cart and I lean in to grab the bulk of her items. Our fingers graze each other as we reach for the same bag and shutters run through me.
She jerks her hand back and I swear she felt it too.
“You know what, come on. Leave it. I’ll have someone come clean it up.”
“Are you sure?”
I nod and start walking, leading the way.
We reach the side door of the restaurant and I open it for her. The building is empty aside from the bartender and a member of the janitorial crew vacuuming before the evening opening hour. She heads to the server station and I stay behind her on the way to my office.
I should have kept going but when we reached the little room where she’ll clock in, I stop and lean in the doorway, not ready to leave.
She peers over her shoulder feeling my lingering presence and seems to be searching for words. I don’t need words though, I’m just not ready to stop watching her.
“You know…I never thanked you for all the clothes.”
“It was my pleasure.?”
“Well I should’ve thanked you sooner but you’ve been busy. I haven’t seen you much.”
That was by design though she didn’t know that.
“You can thank me by wearing that little black dress Friday night.
She looks at me wondering how I know with flushing cheeks and I just grin.
She seems nervous again as she lifts to her tiptoes to reach her locker exposing her tiny waist and...and I don't dare look away. She pushes her purse inside and closes the door again, fumbling on the way down and falling backward, right into my arms.
"Whoa, there firefly.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“I’m not,” I didn’t mean to let that out.
I feel the mounds of her tight nipples on my chest and my cock immediately hardens. I pull myself away before she feels it too.
“Anyways, can I help you with anything else,” she pushes a thick strand of red hair behind her ear and I bite my lip in contempt.
She makes it so hard on me.
“Oh, there's so much you could do for me firefly..." I tuck a strand behind her other ear, "…but in another life maybe."
Her eyes look a bit confused and I just move out of the way, watching her walk away. And then I wonder what it will actually be like to watch her leave. My gut and fists clench at the thought and panic shoots through my body. All my thoughts combust as I think about never having her. About it truly being final.
I stand there for a long moment rearranging ideas and perceptions, trying to fit the puzzle pieces of my life into a shape that could include her but I find nothing that doesn’t involve danger.
If I can just get through this weekend…she’ll be free.
