He saw.
Everything.
At least I was waxed, the opposite of that would have been horrifically embarrassing. He said it was pretty. No one has ever called my vajayjay pretty before.
He must think I’m a complete hussy not wearing any panties yesterday.
We’re back outside now.
I eye Lincoln from behind my sunglasses.
He’s wearing simple sweatpants and a tee shirt today like everyone else, but he’s decked out in the best brands. He wears sweats well, too well. He’s dripping in designer threads and sporting an exceedingly expensive vintage watch on his wrist. Now that speaks volumes.
If he Googled me, I can Google him, can’t I? It’s only fair if I do.
Who are you, Lincoln Black?
My eyes fix on his bulging arm muscles he has folded across his chest as he chats casually with Rio. Lincoln is gorgeous. Greek no less and he even speaks the language, too. How swoonworthy.
It’s no wonder he tans so well. He’s already got a head start with his heritage running through his veins.
He laughs casually, running his strong fingers through his wild, dark locks. In just a few short weeks, he has gelled well with his team. He fits in. With everyone. He even charmed the pants off my uncle at lunchtime. He’s like a chameleon, simply knowing what and how to say it in the moment.
The man is a charmer.
The words he spoke to me during our truth and lies activity reached parts of my inner lack of confidence deep and have stuck with me.
These team building days we hold are for me to analyze the team, identify people’s potential, and research the general vibe of the team, but today I could not concentrate on what our new employee, Judith, was saying to me throughout our afternoon snack because all I could think about was what Lincoln said.
“A beautiful brunette fell at my feet and made me question my entire existence. I want to take you out on a date. I’m flipped out by how attracted I am to you.”
He’s attracted to me. My stomach felt like an Olympian gymnast was doing a back handspring and roundoff when he spilled his heartfelt words.
He was sincere, too. I could feel it. He doesn’t mince his words and I really like that about him.
Dating. That is something I haven’t done in a very long time. Too long, come to think of it.
Maybe when we are working on the remodeling together, he’ll ask me again.
I secretly hope he does. He likes me and I am flattered.
I would need to clear it with human resources first though. The last thing we need is an employee scandal. Am I allowed to date our temporary staff? Do I even need to tell them? After all, Lincoln is only here for a few weeks.
Could be fun.
My father has tried, frequently, to pair me off with one of his many business buddies' sons who, frankly, all turned out to be boring as hell. Preppy boys are not my type at all. I want someone who will test me, push me, not agree with me on everything, but understands my need to work too.
The last guy I dated, Chad, was a nice guy, but I never saw myself with him.
I’ve always dreamed of having a husband and a family one day. But Chad wasn’t the one I wanted to do that with, and he never understood that I wanted to blend family and work.
We were never on the same page and I’m not sure why I stuck it out as long as I did.
On the flip side, Lincoln understands the level of dedication I have for my work because he has the same passion for his work too. I’ve yet to find out what he does back home in Scotland. Much like me, he’s clearly driven, but he appears to love working for his family business more than I do. I admire him for that.
And then, of course, with Chad, sex, eesh, it was, well, it was just sex. Two years of just sex. What was I thinking?
By the looks of Lincoln, he knows his way around a woman’s body and I sure as hell would like to find out if that’s true. I volunteer. Where do I sign up?
