The next day, the lack of sleep actually helped convince people that Miranda had been ill.
“Oh, you poor thing. Looks like it was a rough few day.” Sharon’s face was laced with genuine concern.
“Yeah but I’m feeling loads better. Thanks for the lasagne by the way. It was delicious. Just what I needed.”
“You’re very welcome. I hope you didn’t mind Josh dropping it off. He was very insistent. You’ve made a big impression I think.”
Miranda wasn’t sure how to respond. “Err…no it was fine! Gave me a chance to ask him how he was getting on with his essay.”
“You are sweet!”
Someone cleared their throat behind Miranda. She turned to find Daniel standing there.
Miranda had attempted to think of every excuse possible to not go on Thursday. She’d already used being ill, but maybe she could tell another lie. Like she had a date? But then she would have to make up a whole story about some pretend mystery man. She couldn’t even use the pretend family engagement again with a sister she wasn’t even close to. Josh would know for sure she was lying. Maybe she could say there had been a gas leak at her house…Miranda shook her head. She was going to have to just go.Even if she managed to think of the perfect excuse, she couldn’t give one every Thursday. There was also every chance Josh would just show up at her house and he’d charm her into bed. Again.At least if they were at Sharon’s house, he wouldn’t be able to touch her. Probably.Ever since the Facebook stal
“Are you sure we should really be doing this…here?” Miranda whispered.He smirked at her. “Why would you like me to stop?” He started to run his hand up her dress.Miranda rolled her eyes. “Well no…but…”Josh cut in. “Just try to be quiet, alright?”Miranda wasn’t sure how successful she was going to be with that request.He guided her onto the bed, and she sat on the edge, wondering what his next move was going to be.“Anyway, I want to practice what I learnt the other night.” His eyes sparkled mischievously as he knelt down before her.He moved his hands up under her dress towards the top of her tights, he looked
Miranda could hardly contain herself about seeing Josh later. She decided she wanted to step up her lingerie from last time. She laid out every set she had. In the end she settled on a red baby doll style dress that was entirely see through apart from some meshing around her nipples. It tied at the front with a ribbon which was easy to pull apart. She paired it with a matching thong.This was going to knock his socks off.She went to her dressing table and straightened her hair so it fell to the middle of her back. She decided to go a little more glamourous with her make up. She kind of liked the idea of leaving red lipstick marks all over his body.Miranda had decided to play a little game with Josh. She was going to leave the front door open so he could let himself in, and write a note telling him to find her in the bedroom. She was sure he wa
“Oh...it’s just the pipes…old house you know…”Sharon looked suspiciously at the ceiling. “Hmm, maybe you need to get in touch with your landlord.”Miranda pulled out her phone hurriedly to text Josh.-Stop Moving, we can hear you!Sharon was still looking up and Miranda realised she needed to distract her and fast.“You know, we should do a photoshoot for you too.” She announced brightly.Sharon scoffed and tucked her hair behind her ear. “Pfft, not sure we should. I won’t be online dating any time soon.”
Miranda read the message several times. This was going exactly where she wanted it to. She hurriedly slipped off her dress, grabbing the vibrator and switching it to its lowest setting. Those higher ones were for later. She positioned herself on the bed and rested the vibrator on the duvet next to her. Taking a quick snap of it next to her thigh, she sent it to him with a response.-Promise. Now tell me what you thought about.-I was thinking about slowly pulling that ribbon on your dress so I could get my mouth on those suckable nipples. I’d bought more ice cream just for the occasion.Miranda took the vibrator and rested it against her core, heat already building in her.-
Miranda hadn’t appreciated just how busy this week was actually going to be. Along with work, she had to spend the whole of Monday evening preparing for Wednesday’s talk, thanks to her sister’s dinner invitation the following night.As soon as she got home, she cleared the dining table ready to lay out her work. Her stomach was already rumbling so she went into the kitchen to take out a microwave meal from the freezer. She made holes in the cellophane with a knife and stuck it on to do its thing.She’d decided to go back through her dissertation and old notes to come up with something. Waves of nostalgia washed through her as she remembered her time at university. A lot of her course mates hadn’t really been too fussed about getting good marks, they just wanted to party.Miranda ge
Miranda’s mouth hung open as she stared at him, frozen and unable to move. All he did in return was present her with one of his famous charming smiles.“You’ll have to excuse my big sister. She’s not used to such a nice place.” Chloe tittered as she kicked Miranda under the table.“Would you like me to give you a few more minutes?” Josh asked innocently.“Yes, thank you.” Chloe gave him a thin smile, keeping her position until she was sure Josh could no longer hear her.She snapped her eyes to Miranda and hissed at her, “what is your problem?”Shock was slowly turning to anger. Josh had p
Despite last nights several glasses of wine, Miranda actually didn’t feel too bad. She wondered if the dupe of her sister had anything to do with it. She probably wouldn’t be able to get away with it a second time though.As she walked into the company building, she saw Sharon talking to the snooty receptionist Clara. She greeted both of them, although Sharon was far more cheerful about it.“My ID card needs renewing. The lovely Clara here was just sorting it out for me.” Sharon nodded to the sour faced woman behind the desk.Miranda bit her lip to stop herself from laughing.“Ahh okay. I’ll wait with you.”Shar
