Chapter 12: Thunder Of Confusion

Leslie's P.O.V.

He freaking kissed you!" Morgan shrieks..

Jeez, don't blow my ears off"I say grimacing .

I don't think I'll ever be able to look at him with the same eyes"I say softly, with a sudden flash of his hot, sexy strong abs burn through my memory.

Come on , it can't be that terrible,I mean it's not like you just stood their drooling"She says with her voice dripping with sacarsm on phone.

"Besides It's not like you're a virgin or something and it's not like you've never seen a man naked before."

"well it's been quite a while so I may as well be a virgin," I grumbled.

"Ouch! We need to get you laid before your vagina drags you across your office and make you clamp onto your boss's penis."

"I don't think that's ever going to happen." But just to be sure, I had to start wearing pants to work. "I need help to deal with this, Morgan. You're the kinda the extrovert and love expert in this relationship."I say .

"All right, all right since am so open-hearted" She held up her hands. "And as your best friend, I'll sleep with him instead of you."

What?"I screamed out in shock.

"And people say I'm the weird and problematic one."I say grimacing.

"Okay, listen up girl.

There's no two ways about this issue darling.

Babes You have to suck it up. It's not like you saw him naked in secret?" She says sweetly.

Finally you're making sense"I say to her in great relief. I mean It's true that i didn't sneak up on him. 

He knows that there's this hot scorching attraction between you two , and from what you said, he didn't seem to be bothered by it at all and he damn well initiated the kiss"Morgan says, laughing softly.

Peck, it was more of a peck like a kiss on the forehead but real affectionate."I chipped in timidly.

Urghh am so confused"I scream out in fustration more like sexual fustration .

Peck, kiss, French kiss what's the difference. It still was a kiss"Morgan says.

"Stop laughing, it's not funny" I mutter, feeling embarrassed. 

"I don't get it. Like, he didn't really care that I was there and basically looking at him naked. I felt real embarrassed and felt like a blushing young teenager." I say

"Awwn,but it's not a first though you're easily embarrassed all the time." Morgan says, this is why talking with my best friend puts me at ease.

Yeah yeah, there you go again.

I think am going to go crash in bed, have got a busy day tomorrow and a sexy as hell boss whom I might probably fantasize in a white sexy towel"I sigh out dreamily.

Am a pervert right?"I ask

Oh Leslie, maybe it will be best to confess to him. This attraction between you two might be mutual, isn't it better to explore this feeling together?"Morgan says.

That's just the thing, is this attraction really worth getting fired!

Sacked!

And doomed to forever live in my parents house!

Damien's P.O.V.

Next day.......

There was nothing more awkward than your assistant knowing what you look like practically naked, I mean it's bizzaire.

Well not exactly naked just me with a towel on.

Leslie had scared the shit out of me, I mean it's no surprise she dropped like that because we're pratically neighbors . When I'd told her I needed those files quick, I hadn't thought she'd be that damn quick. It was basically fifteen minutes from the call to her going to the office then dropping the damn files in my penthouse.

Not to mention I'd only told her I needed them so quickly because she was well "Leslie" I assumed she'd get delayed by running over a car or something on her way over. 

She's real clumsy, but strangely cute and intriguing.

I'd already decided I wasn't going to make a big deal out of it. She likely would, so I'd be the calm one. Really, it wasn't a big deal. It wasn't like I'd been entirely naked besides it wasn't reversed.

If I'd seen her with just a towel on, all bets would have been off. There was no way I'd ever be able to scrub the image of her in a towel or her underwear off my mind. 

Hell, they were on my mind already.

It was making work a problem because I was more focused on the brown auburn red-lipped beauty outside my office.

I shook my head to dislodge those thoughts as I entered the office building. It was already busy and bustling downstairs, with all the staff up and about. I waved good morning to the receptionist on the phone in the front desk.

So it's now or never!

Damn!

No woman has ever made me this anxious in a very long time, I feel like a school boy. 

Leslie would already be here. Hopefully, she was on the phone or something so I could just slip into my office without having to talk to her just yet. 

It was delaying the inevitable, sure, but whatever. 

Stepping out of the elevator into the lobby at the last floor, I then got a breathtaking view of her she was sitting at her desk, typing away on the computer. She'd pulled her dark hair up into a bun on top of her head, and her always-red lips were pursed as she paused, moving one hand to the mouse and clicking trying to concentrate.

A white collar peeked out from the top of her navy and blue striped sweater, and I hated that the one thing I noticed about it was that it hugged her body perfectly. 

Fuck me dead! 

As if she knew I was staring, she turned to look at me. A smile broke across her face, and her eyes lit up when they landed on me. 

"Good morning!" she chirped. "Would you like a cup of coffee?"

What was going on? I wasn't expecting her to drool over me, but I wasn't expecting her to be so super friendly. 

She had never been this friendly.

"Good morning," I said, somewhat hesitantly. "I'd love a cup."

"Great. Let me finish up this email, and I'll bring one in for you." That smile was still in place as she turned back to the computer, then paused, looking back at me with a look on her face I can't quite discipher.

I settled down in my office going through some files sent by the human resources department with a list of some budgets that needs approval.

Here's your coffee"She says dropping the cup with her hands a bit shaky.

Leslie"I say clearing my throat a bit .

Don't you think we should maybe talk about what happened the other day"I ask trying to figure out what she's thinking. I know I can just decide not to mention the incident between us but a part of me wants to know what she feels. Judging by the ways she stands and the expression on her face.

Damn would you stop"I say not being able to control myself anymore.

Stop what?"She asks timidly still repeating the act with her hands wringed together.

That's it"I say, I stood up then grabbed her hands pulling her her close to me with my hands around her. Being in close proximity with just makes all my senses go on hyperalert.

Stop biting your lips "Agape Mou"I say caressing her soft pilant body which seem to fit so sweetly in my arm. 

I don't think this is right"She say softly, I could feel her shaking softly but in sensual way.

What part of it isn't right, don't tell me you plan to ignore this burning desire between us "Deliza Mia"

She jerks out of my arm saying"None of this is right and even if I do feel the same way you do, I don't think we should act on it."Leslie says trying not to meet my eyes.

If you really think so why don't you then say it to my face then"I say feeling a bit fustrated seeing things didn't turn out the way I thought it would.

Let's be professional please , all this is disrupting the way I think and my life is a real mess and I don't think you would want to get yourself entangled with "Hurricane Leslie".

I..."Before I could utter a word or two she saunters out of my office in rapid pace .

Fuck!

I think I blew!!
