The Dilemma

I started hyperventilating, my palms were sweaty again so I squeezed my eyes shut when I saw him raise his hand at me.

I heard two loud shots going off so I decidedly kept my eyes closed. I heard another shot go off before footsteps approached me.

"Get him out of here." I heard Mr Valentino's voice boom off the walls. It was as if I was suffocating until I heard him speak, I finally caught my breath with a loud gasp.

"Gibbs?" I heard someone call me but I was lost in a trance. "Joan?" The voice came again. My eyes fluttered open and I saw Mr Valentino looking down at me, that voice was too gentle to belong to him. "Goddammit Gibbs." He said when I fainted slightly in his arms.

"Gibbs." I heard Mr Valentino breathe out. I opened my eyes and I saw Mr Garcia being dragged out of his house. "You alright?" He asked and I nodded. "Did you get the file?" 

"Yes sir." I replied blankly.

"Good girl." He said in a husky tone causing a wave of heat to spread throughout my entire body. My biggest secret is having a crush on my boss. 

I mean look at him.

I took in a sharp breath before walking ahead of Mr Valentino. I turned around when I didn't hear him follow me and found him staring at my ass while licking his lips, he quickly shifted his gaze and I continued my walk acting as if I didn't catch onto him.

"I'll take you home." Mr Valentino said softly and I nodded. He opened my door for me and I slid onto the seat. Once he entered, the car filled with silence, his cologne was intoxicating me he smelled so delicious.

Soon Mr Valentino drove into my driveway and opened my door for me. Why is he being this nice to me, I'm just a...

"You live with Dominique?" He asked and I only nodded. "Is he your boyfriend?" He asked and I shook my head.

"He's gay." I told my boss who awkwardly cleared his throat.

"Good, because romantic relationships in the work place will not be tolerated." He explained and I nodded. "I want you in my office tomorrow morning... Goodnight Gibbs." He said briefly and climbed back into his car.

"Goodnight sir." I said to myself because he didn't even wait for my response. I carefully walked up to my house.

I opened the door and switched the light on. A loud scream escaped my mouth when I found Dom sitting at the kitchen island with a bowl of ice cream in his hand.

"Why is the don bringing you home?" He asked suspiciously and I frowned at him.

"Because nobody else could, because it was late, becau-" 

"Bitch please." Dom interupted and I glared at him through my eyelashes.

"If you scare me like that again I'll cut your nut sack off." I threatened and Dom laughed in my face.

"Well I could just cut your vagina out." He said and I cringed.

"How when you won't be able to walk?" I asked confidently and he laughed again.

"Maybe I'll beat you to it. Anyways I know you're changing the topic but it won't work." Dom said in one breath and I frowned again.

"Dominique Morreti leave me the hell alone." I said before going into my room with Dom hot on my heels.

"Will not." He said childishly. "So how'd it go with Garcia?" He asked curiously and I shrugged. 

"I got the files." I said with a smile on my face. "Maybe that's why the don brought me home as a token of his appreciation." I said in an educative voice.

"Or he's trying to fu-"

"Dom if you don't shut up right now I will literally kill you." I groaned and he raised his hands in surrender.

"Fine, but don't be shocked if that shit happens." Dom said with a smug smile on his face. "He looks like a man who doesn't take no for an answer." Dom reckoned and I rolled my eyes at him.

"Well he's just gonna have to learn to." I said shortly, luckily Dom doesn't know how I feel about our boss because then I would never hear the end of it.

"Well we might as well go to sleep. Goodnight, Bunny." He said before blowing a kiss in my direction and disappearing down the hall.

"Goodnight, my fabulous friend." I said and he giggled deeply making me smile. I removed my dress and took another shower.

When I shower it's almost as if I wash my sins away. Where "they" touched or where "they" looked, I make myself believe that it all disappears with the water. It's become a routine by now.

I stepped out of the shower and wrapped my towel around my body. Why is it so cold in here, I thought I turned the heat up. I grabbed an oversized shirt and a pair of underwear, it's always matching. 

When I was fully dressed I combed my curly hair and tied it behind my back when I was done. I climbed under my covers and switched the light off.

I slowly drifted off to sleep, hoping that I wouldn't dream of my encounter with Praga.

The next morning I woke up to the sun shining through my windows. I looked at my alarm and my eyes widened, shit I'm late! I jumped out of bed and hastily did my morning routine.

My phone rang so I ran over to it. Shit it's Mr Valentino. I am so dead. I grabbed a black pencil skirt which stopped a few inches above my knee, it had a slip on my left leg. 

Where the fuck is my underwear? 

I hastily picked out an elegant crop top and a matching jacket. I searched through my drawer hoping that I would find a pair of underwear but it was all in vain

. 

Fuck underwear, who needs that.

Dom is gonna get it for not doing the laundry and for not waking me up. I got dressed and slipped my heels on before running downstairs.

Thank God Dom left the car for me, he must've gotten a lift with a friend. I started the engine and sped down the road. Shit it's already ten am, I was supposed to be at work at eight. I looked between the road and my watch as I sped down the streets.

I turned the aircon off because it was blowing in all the wrong places. I finally parked in the underground garage and jumped out of the car. I locked the car while running towards the elevator. I punched in Mr Valentino's floor number and waited. I let my curls loose behind my back. 

Luckily I was able to apply my face cream earlier, I legit can't live without it. The elevator sounded and I sucked in a deep breath before walking in the direction of Mr Valentino's office.

I knocked and I heard his voice on the other side of the door. "Come in." He said and so I did. When he saw me he sat up in his chair to watch my every move.

Two buttons on his black dress shirt was undone leaving his perfectly toned and tattooed skin visible for me to drool over. He strangely had the pinkest lips and the blue-est eyes I've ever seen. In my opinion he's the hottest man on this planet.

"You're late." He said with one eyebrow raised. "You'd better have a good explanation for this." He said in a husky tone and I shivered. Fuck don't talk like that.

His eyes roamed my body and I was suddenly too aware of my lack of underwear. His eyes finally stopped on my braless breasts and I sucked in a deep breath. They roamed my body again until they landed on my short skirt, he seemed curious for some reason. 

"I had a long day yesterday and my alarm was off." I started but he held a hand in the air.

"Not good enough." He said and I groaned internally. 

"It won't happen again." I said in a mere whisper.

"I'm promoting you, Gibbs." He announced and my eyes widened in shock, after what I just did? "But you have to do three more jobs for me." He said before shifting his gaze from me.

"Okay?" I said hesitantly.

He was looking at my body again with dark eyes causing me to shift in my place. His hand swiped across his desk and a bunch of files fell on the floor.

"Would you be a dear and pick those up for me?" He asked before looking at me expectantly. I nodded my head obediently before picking up his papers. If he wants to play dirty I'll give him dirty. I gently swayed my ass and looked over my shoulder.

I slowly stood up and seductively ran my hand along my thigh. Mr Valentino shifted in his seat as he was still watching me. He stood up from his seat and went over to the door. I heard the clicking sound of the door as he locked it and my heartbeat increased.
