"You should have said yes the first time. You don't know how hard it was for me to ask you out in the first place. That was breaking every rule that I live by. That was breaking every principle that my life was based upon, but you just mean that much to me because I want to know everything about you. I want to be with you. I tried that out once and I'm not going to do that again," he replied to me with furrowed brows.
"So, what are you trying to say? You're going to keep going out with those women?" I fought back a tear.
"Maybe, maybe I will. Maybe I will go out with them, take them out on dates. Maybe I would enjoy spending time with them since apparently I can't do that with you," he dug at me.
That was all it took to trigger me, to push me off the edge and before I knew what I was doing, I was leaning up to kiss him. It was a short quick peck on the mouth and even though it barely lasted 5 seconds, it felt like it was more because I felt the softness of his lips against mine.
I pulled myself back, realizing that I had done something ridiculous, something crazy and something embarrassing. I tried my best to run out of the room, but again he was faster than I was. He moved awfully fast for someone his size.
He grabbed my hand and pulled me against his body, his hand finding its way to my waist again, the feeling that I had missed, the smell of him engulfing me, the hardness of his body drawing out the desire in me.
"You don't get to do that and run away, Katrina, because now you have ignited what you shouldn't have," he said before his lips found mine again.
He pulled me tighter against him, his other hand coming up behind my head to hold me in place. The kiss was soft initially while he was slowly coaxing me to open my mouth.
Once I succumbed to him and his tongue slid into my mouth, it became ferocious, heated, drawing my breath from me, as his lips moved over mine. He was very talented and it showed in the way he kissed me.
His lips drew a plethora of desire from me, an intense feeling I was new to. At that moment, I knew that I would let him do anything that he wanted to do to me, that I would welcome all of his advances and I think he knew that as well because his hand slid over to cup my ass, pressing me against his throbbing erection. I ground my hips against him, a long moan coming out from me.
With his lips on mine, everything disappeared. I didn't remember we were in the office. The only thing I was aware of was the feel of his lips against mine, the smell of him, and the heat and want that built up inside me, like I was ready to explode.
If he could invoke such emotions from me with just a kiss, I couldn't help but look forward to more from him.
He pulled away from me. "Go out with me, Katrina. I dare you to say no."
"I don't want to." I smiled at him.
Something catches my eye from the hallway outside. I turned to look to see the receding back of a very angry Melissa.
"Oh my God." I covered my mouth, still in his arms. "I think Melissa just saw us," I said to him.
"What does it matter?" He sounded nonchalant.
"She looked very angry."
"I don't care, she sent you to me in the first place. She should have brought the documents herself. Either way, I won't be kissing you right now." He flashed me that handsome grin of his.
"I don't mind the kisses at all," I replied to him with a smile.
"The lady I went out with yesterday was a friend, not an arm candy. And my best friend Marcus would not appreciate you calling his wife that. They are separated, although not divorced. He didn't sign the papers. We are still friends and have dinner from time to time. She still loves him and yesterday we were talking about the possibilities of her getting back together with him. I didn't used to meddle in their relationship, but now I realize how much they need each other."
"Look at you match-making people. That is so cute." I smiled
"I am not cute, honey, and they are different. In the case of his relationship, he was the one who did the wrong thing. He was a workaholic and that affected the marriage. Deborah lost a baby and things became tense but now he is quite older, he understands more and I don't see any reason why they shouldn't be together."
"I like you when you talk like this. You should show this sweet side of yourself more often."
"I have one?"
"Yes, you do, and it shows when you're talking about people that you care about and I can't wait for you to sound like that and look like that when you're talking about me."
"You know that it may not be as far away as you might think."
"Don't raise my hopes," I warned him.
"I'm not trying to. I mean everything that I said."
"I should probably get back to work before another person finds me in your arms. People talk," I said. I had to get out also because my brain was starting to lose all sanity with his sweet words.
