“Actually, I am. I own half this company, Angela. Henry might be the head honcho around here, but I do have a say in the day-to-day operations. And an employee not showing up for her shifts falls under my responsibilities and therefore, unfortunately for you, I am very much your boss.”
Her eyes narrow as I continue.
“So, like I said, you are more than welcome to take the rest of the day off, but you will have to get someone here to take your place and you will make up those hours next week.”
We’re silent for a moment before she stands.
“Never mind,” she mutters and leaves my office in a huff.
Thank God.
The end of the day can’t come fast enough. I find myself looking at the clock constantly, wanting time to go just a little bit faster as I silently tell myself to calm down. It’s finally time to start closing everything down, and since it’s a Thursday, I’m here alone, which I prefer. Everyone’s scheduled shifts ended about an hour ago and so it’s blissfully quiet as I walk around the space, taking my time to go through everything that needs to be done without distractions.
When I finish cleaning everything else, I go into the locker room and look myself over once more before Josh shows up. The mirror is not kind to me as I stare at my reflection. My hair is everywhere from sweating all day, my face is flushed and so I lean over the sink and splash some cold water on my face, hoping that will help. I have never been a makeup kind of girl, something Cole despised and would make me wear any chance he got, but now? I’m okay with the woman staring back at me, the one that put in a hard day’s work and doesn’t give a shit if a guy wants her to wear mascara on date night.
Feeling content, I leave and make my way to the front of the gym, only to find Josh standing by the front door.
“Hi,” I say, motioning for him to come inside.
“Hey, Sunshine,” he says before his mouth lands on mine in a searing kiss that forces every breath I have to leave my body. His hands grasp my hips as he pushes me back until we hit a wall, gasping for breath. “Fuck, I missed that mouth,” he mutters before taking my lips once more and reminding me just how much I missed him too. After a few minutes, the intensity settles and he pulls away.
“Hi,” I whisper, a small smile playing at the edge of my lips.
“Hi,” he says back, kissing me lightly as he takes my hand and leads me toward my office.
“So, where are we going anyway?” I ask, knowing without a doubt that he has something planned.
“I have a few ideas, but I think I’ll keep it a surprise.” He’s smiling from ear to ear, and I can’t help but stare at him.
That smile isn’t the one you see on TV, or the one in magazines. This one is different, more genuine and I love it more and more every time I see it.
“But before we go anywhere, I have to do something,” he adds, not waiting for a reply before his mouth is on mine once more and everything else fades away.
The kiss is everything I want and more as I sink into his touch. His arms wrap around my waist, bringing me closer as his tongue darts out to stroke my bottom lip. This is different from the kiss earlier. This is passion, lust and desire all rolled into one sensation, and I’m addicted. When I open up for him, I get lost in the sensation of being in his arms, of the way his lips feel against mine and how natural all of this feels. But fuck can this man kiss.
I bring my hands around his neck, pulling him to me as I moan into his mouth. A low growl comes from Josh as we walk backward until he’s sitting on a bench. I straddle his legs and begin to rock against his hard length that’s growing with each grind of my pelvis.
“Fuck, Harper. This isn’t what I came here for,” he mutters against my lips.
“Mmm,” I moan, kissing him even harder. The feeling of him against me has me going out of my mind. The date forgotten, I just need him closer, I need him to kiss me harder… I just need more.
I push my fingers into his hair as his hands travel down my back toward my ass, which has begun a steady rhythm against his cock. Josh’s name escapes my lips as his hands grip my ass through my thick yoga pants.
“I really just wanted to make out for a second and then take you out, but I can’t stop now. Fuck, I can’t do anything but feel you…” And just like that, he flips us, picking me up and positioning me under him as his eyes bore into mine with so much passion and need that it makes my breath catch. “I swear we will actually go out on a date tonight, but first I need to do something…” he groans in the curve of my neck.
Before I can figure out what he means, his hands cup my face, bringing his lips back to mine ever so lightly. The shift in tempo is so erotic that I arch into him. Needing more of what he’s giving me. One of his hands lightly traces down my body, just barely grazing my nipple, which is now standing at attention. His hand finds the edge of my panties as I break the kiss, our eyes meeting as he looks into my eyes. I nod, knowing what he’s asking me, and when his hand disappears into my pants and under my lace underwear, I groan.
“Josh…” I tilt my head back, arching back into him as the sensations take over my body.
“You ready for me, sweetheart?” he asks, and I nod, not having the words but he continues. “Is this pussy hot and ready for me?”
I’m done. Josh’s dirty talk is on point tonight and I can’t get enough.
“Yes, God yes…”
His lips curve as he kisses his way down my neck, creating goose bumps in his wake.
“Please…” I beg, needing him to touch me before I explode.
