"This is just supposed to be dinner. This is already going off on a tangent that it shouldn't and I'd appreciate it if you would stop. I'd like to enjoy this delicious expensive meal that you've gotten me and I would like to call you tonight. I do not want it to be awkward for the rest of the night because of our conversation. I promise I'm a big girl. I know how to handle myself."
"I don't doubt that." I smiled at her and she smiled at me genuinely. She was a beautiful woman and she was different from the women that I was used to. I liked the fact that she says it as it is. I didn’t have to rack my brain trying to figure out what she truly wanted.
What she said made me think. Did I really want to try? Could I try? I tried to weigh my options, what I had to gain if I did and what I had to lose if I didn’t.
Maybe it's good that she said that. Maybe it was good that she was hell-bent on what she wanted. Maybe that would help me stay away from her because I shouldn't even be with her in the first place or maybe not. Maybe it will make me want her more knowing that I couldn’t have her. I guess I'll have to give it more thought.
The rest of the night went on like the conversation that we had earlier wasn't an issue. It was filled with laughter and smiles and when I dropped her off at home, I knew that that was something I wanted to do again. I just didn’t know if I wanted to do it within the confinement of an actual relationship.
I didn’t know what I was afraid of. I didn’t know what was keeping me from doing it. I've just always thought that once bitten, twice shy.
CHAPTER12
KAT
Everyone at work seemed quite excited and happy since it's the last day of the week and the following day was the company beach day.
It was the first company event that I would be attending and I've heard so much about the famous Blue Trekk company events, that they were always fun and interesting.
I was a bit nervous to go. I wanted to have the experience, but I would still be a newbie to the event.
I dropped the file from HR on George's table and decided to ask, "Will you be coming for the beach day tomorrow?"
He looked up from his computer at me. "I don't do company events," he replied with a tone like what he just said was something that I should have known.
"But you are a part of the company."
"Yes, but I don't go for a couple of reasons. I don't like fraternizing with people and I believe that the employees will have more fun when their boss is not there. They already have to deal with me for most of their work-life; they don't need me raining on their parade on their free days."
"I don't think so. I get where you're coming from though. That’s quite sad. I'm sure that they would love to have you there. I know I would."
"Yeah, you might be the only one that shares that opinion.”
“I don't think so. Every lady here has had a crush on you at one point or the other. I'm pretty sure if you come they will just be as happy as I would be."
"Are you inviting me?"
"It's your company. I don't have to invite you for anything. I understand if you don't want to come, but it would be fun with you there." I couldn't hide my excitement.
"Now that you say it like that, it sounds awfully tempting. Are you going to be wearing a bikini?"
"Oh my God, George. Have some manners." My face flushed.
Ever since that night that we had dinner, things have been relatively more comfortable and interesting between the both of us.
Even though the conversation that day didn't head in a direction that I would like, it doesn't mean that I cannot have fun with him, especially since he was an interesting person to have a conversation with.
He had so much exposure and had explored the world in ways that I had not and could never even dream or imagine. Hearing him talk about those things, and talk with such wisdom was intriguing. I feel like we finally found a bit of a friendship in our relationship, and there were times when he was still very naughty and teased me about dating me or sleeping with me, like he just did.
The past two weeks had been quite nice.
"I will be wearing a bikini. Will that get you to come?"
"Oh, honey, you need a lot more than that to get me to cum." He smirked.
"Lord, you are just dirty." I shot him a look, smiling as I stepped out of his office.
