“I am almost afraid of your multi-tasking.” She said as they got back to the office and went into the inner one that was his. “But at least if the things you ordered for the office show up early, you will be there to take delivery of them.”
“Yes, we will.” He said with his grin changing to a more lazy one, and he seemed more relaxed. Today had been a whirlwind of activity. He wasn’t mostly the type to create it in his own life. He found it in others and then identified which drama would do badly for the company and got rid of it. Often quickly and silently. He also knew she could get into a lot more trouble for having an affair with him here at the office, but something in him didn’t care about that. He was normally the one who would find out regardless. If this all worked out the way he could see it being, then she wouldn’t be working here much longer. He wouldn’t cross over that line now
“I don’t want more things.” She said as she looked up to his face. She didn’t want him to buy her anything more. She wanted him to know that.“Do you know how to sew?” he asked with a chuckle.“Yes, why?” she asked.“Because if you don’t remove your clothing in five seconds, the shirt will have no buttons left on it.” He growled as he looked at her, still standing there, not moving. She reached up to the top button that was still buttoned, and undid it, then she moved one down, another, and another until her shirt hung open. He looked at her fine soft skin and then pushed the offending garment to the floor. He looked at her standing there in her perfect glory without a shirt on, but he still saw too much fabric, and she was teasing him now. He liked it more than he wanted too.Her skirt was unbuttoned, and then the zipper moved down slowly until it fell off her h
Paige woke up with a start in the middle of the night. She was in a place she didn’t know and was slightly frightened until she heard the soft breathing of the man in the back of her, which she had also awoken when she nearly jumped out of the strange bed. “Something wrong, sweetheart?” he asked his voice laced with sleep and was deeper than she remembered it to be. She felt bad for waking him up as well as giving herself a mini-heart attack.“I didn’t know where I was for a second.” She said as she settled down for a moment and let her heart stop racing. It would just take a few minutes to get it calmed down to the point she could relax again.“You are right where you are supposed to be.” He said as he pulled her flush against him. Wrapping an arm over her and holding her close to him. His warmth was infusing her as she tried to get a handle on her racing heart still. It was comforting to have
Milo kept to his word and woke her at sunrise, knowing that she would have to take another shower for the day. He was glad he had moved a few of his suits into the closet already, and he helped her in the shower quickly as they knew soon the building would be coming to life again. As they both dressed, he hung a few of her new suits in the closet next to his with a smile as she went to get coffee for the both of them. Things that seemed like it would in the home they would share made everything seem even more dreamlike than it already was for the both of them. Nothing besides a few stolen small kisses here or there would tell a story that they were anything but boss and assistant.In the office, they spoke to each other as they normally would be. It was simple for both of them. The business hours were for the job they both had. Milo had already started to think about how to get what he needed to be done during the waking hours of the day instead of
“Have you decided where to place most of these?” she asked.“Is it too late to say at our new house?” Milo asked with a laugh. “Sweetheart, I think there are a few too many things in here.”“No, there isn’t. I have seen offices much more than just packed with plants. It is the placement of them that will make the office look good.” Paige said as he looked at her.“Please, then by all means. I will lift the trees, and you can tell me where to put them.” He said as he rolled up his sleeves. “Remember, we don’t have real tasks to do for the rest of the week.”“So, are you asking me to take my time?” she asked.“You have permission to be less efficient then you normally are,” he said with a grin. “I am sure that it is going to take a while for you to get everything right.”“Don’t start.” She said
“You think this is a good idea?” Paige asked after Justin left the office. She was looking around at the office and was beginning to think that maybe he was right, and she went a little overboard with the plants. She had to shake her head at herself and went back to helping him place things around the office. The plants did make the size of the room look smaller, though. As she placed a plant down, he would move one of the larger items like a tree or fern to the side where the windows were. In the process, he had made a small private sitting area with the trees around the small couch and two chairs. It was beginning to take shape that could be used.“If it is a bad idea, it is one I should make. I know more about them then they know about me. I think I should try to form something with them. I mean, they are my half-siblings though they know why I am here, existing. The sins of the mother and father shouldn’t be placed onto the child rega
When they walked into the office, Milo looked like he had gone through the wringer. Paige stopped when she walked in, and he closed the door. She didn’t see him turn the lock on the door, either. She just looked at his face. He was still completely shocked at what had just happened.Milo only wanted one thing at the moment, and that was her next to him. He pulled her closer and found the comfort of her tiny arms around him. He didn’t have to try to hold everything in though he still was in shock. He tipped her head up so he could see her eyes, and then he found her mouth with his own. There was a hunger there that neither of them could deny. The tension in him was surging through him. She could feel it as if it was a living being growing in him. She let him pull her along to the couch and then hiked her skirt up so she could straddle him. “I know you said, not here.” He whispered on his lips. “I just need
Paige walked out and looked between the two men standing there. Milo was looking at his father, and she knew he had so many questions to ask. She went to her area and took a seat as she let them talk. As the two left the hallway to go into the office, they left the door open. They knew that she would stop anyone from coming in, and they could discuss whatever with the knowledge she would keep their secrets. She was after all a part of this.“I have one question,” Milo asked the old man as he sat down on the couch, and Milo went to one of the chairs near it. Milo didn’t really know how to handle this conversation. It wasn’t something he was ever going to ask in the first place. Now everything was hinged on the answer his father would give.“And that is?” the old man asked as he raised his eyebrow.“Did you want me to know them?” Milo asked.“Know who?” the old man
“I really don’t know how I should feel about this,” Milo said out of the blue as he looked at his computer later in the day. Paige was in the room, but she wasn’t working with him at the moment. She was keeping herself busy but also keeping an eye on him. He had quite the day already.“You should be happy but yet still a little leery of everything.” She said as she looked out the window. Her response was simple and straightforward. It was how she handled everything, including all of this, with him.“And you know this how?” he asked with a chuckle.“It is how I feel with everything that has happened to us.” She said as she turned around as she looked into his face as she spoke.“You don’t think that you should be happy?” he asked as he stood up and walked over to her. He looked down into her blue eyes and got lost for a moment in them. He was wondering
