“What’s onit?”
“If I told you it wouldn’t be any fun now, wouldit?”
I turned and smiled at him. He strode towards me, taking my face in his hands, and he kissed me: like he wanted to, like he meant it, like I meant something tohim.
I placed my hands around his waist, pulling him closer. I wanted to feel his body against mine. I wanted to feel his erection through histrousers.
He walked me backwards towards his desk, his arm swiped whatever was in the way before he lifted me and placed me on the edge. He stepped between my thighs continuing to kiss me. I felt his heart race; I heard his moan as he gripped myhair.
It was the ping of the lift echoing around the room that startled me. He took a stepback.
“Fuck,” hesaid.
By the time the doors had slid open, I was standing; he had adjusted himself to a more comfortable position within his trousers and had picked up the papers from thefloor.
An elderly woman walked towards hisoffice.
“Thank fuck, it’s Mary. She hasn’t got her glasses on, we would have had a few moreseconds.”
I covered my mouth to contain the laughter as the elderly woman peered through the glasswall.
“Mary, you are supposed to be off today, did you forget?” hesaid.
“Did I forget? Do you think I’m fuckingsenile?”
I dropped my hand and laughed outloud.
“Is this Lauren? Introduce me then, don’t stand there like anidiot.”
“Lauren, my very vocal PA,Mary.”
“It’s lovely to meet you, dear. I have a list of things I want you to answer, just so I know what youlike.”
“Okay, I look forward to it,” Isaid.
“She likes me,” Mackenziereplied.
“Someone has to, dear, someone has to. Now, I forgot my bleeding glasses. Haven’t been able to see a thing all day. I’ll grab them then be off. Don’t forget, you have an early dinner with that dick from Parliament. Suit’s in thewardrobe.”
Wide-eyed I stared atMackenzie.
“I forgot to tell you, Mary is a law unto herself. I’ve tried to sack her many times for her outspokenness, but she’s going out of here in a coffin. Her words, notmine.”
“Be nice to have a woman around, Alex is lovely and all, but the sooner he gets his finger out his arse and whisks that Gabriella down the aisle, the better. I can’t stand the testosterone in here sometimes. Oh, the tart left a message on my voicemail, not that I know how she got my number. She wanted use of an office, I told her to find a fucking library.” She gave me a wink as she walked to herdesk.
“The…?” I started toask.
“Addison. Mary has an irrational dislike of her,” he laughed as hespoke.
“I…I don’t have words,” Isaid.
“Good, because she’s got enough foreveryone.”
She waved over her shoulder, once she’d retrieved her glasses, and made her way back to thelift.
“Wow,” I said, still laughing as she waved again from thelift.
“I inherited her when I took over here. A Londoner all her life, she tells me, cusses constantly. But you know, I couldn’t survive withouther.”
