Falling for My Boss

“Yes, sir,” I replied, slightly miffed.

“I can be your Sir, if you want,” he said softly. “You just have to tell me what you want.” He looked at my lips and then back up to my eyes. “I’m not James Spader, Elizabeth. I’m not going to command you to come into my office so I can spank you.”

“You commanded me to come into your office the other day.” I said, defensively.

“Because I won a bet.” He grinned. “The next time you want me to make you orgasm, you’re going to have to ask me for it.”

“Well, you’ll be waiting a long time for me to ask you for anything,” I said in a huff as my stomach flipped at my words. Not only did my stomach flip at the thought of him going down on me again, but my breasts were starting to tingle and my brain was screaming at me that next time I was in that situation, I was to make sure that I felt him inside of me as well, and not just his tongue.

“We’ll see.” He grinned and walked back into his office. “Fifteen minutes, Elizabeth. I expect you in here in fifteen minutes.” I watched him sauntering back into his office and then turned back to my flowers. I picked them up and smelled them. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the wonderfully vibrant and fresh smell. I set them back on the table and sighed. It had been a nice gesture for him to get me the flowers. I wasn’t sure why he’d gotten them for me. I wasn’t sure if he was being sincere. Did he really want to start over? And if so, why? What did he want from me? And how would he feel if he knew that I’d been lying to him as well? I walked out of the office and toward the kitchen so I could make a coffee for myself before the work day began. I couldn’t stop myself from smiling as I made my coffee and toasted a bagel. I knew that I was only here for a week and that this wasn’t my real job, but I was excited about the day ahead. I was excited that I got to work with Scott, and see him and smell him. I liked being around him. Even with all his innuendos. He somehow made my day feel brighter and more exciting. And the flowers, well, the flowers had been a really sweet gesture. I was happy. I realized as I walked back to the office that even though I was confused, I was happy. And I wasn’t going to question it. I wasn’t going to overthink it. I was just going to let it be. And whatever was going to happen was going to happen. I was just going to enjoy the day and our light flirtation and maybe after everything went down, we could eventually be friends. I knew that was a long shot for multiple reasons, but stranger things have happened.

“Where are you?” Lacey asked when I called her from Scott’s claw foot bathtub.

“You will never guess,” I said as I ran my finger through the water and bubbles.

“Paris?” Lacey guessed and I rolled my eyes.

“I just spoke to you three hours ago, how could I be in Paris already?”

“I don’t know. Concorde? Time travel?”

“Time travel?” I laughed. “Uh huh!”

“So where are you, then?”

“Guess again,” I said with a giggle.

“I don’t know.” She sighed. “I’m guessing not Hong Kong.”

“Hong Kong?” I was exasperated. “Come on, Lacey.”

“Elizabeth Jeffries, how on God’s green earth am I supposed to know where you are?”

“I’m at Scott Taylor’s house,” I whispered. “And I’m currently soaking in his claw foot tub.”

“What?” she screeched. “You slept with Scott Taylor again?”

“No.” I rolled my eyes, even though I knew she couldn’t see me. “What do you take me for?”

“The girl who wore no panties to work, put her boss’s hand up her skirt and is now at his house and in his bathtub.”

“I didn’t put his hand up my skirt. He put his hand down my skirt. And you’re the one that told me to wear no panties in the first place, Lacey.”

“I know, but I didn’t mean for that to lead straight to his bed again.”

“He’s not even here yet.” I muttered. “We didn’t have sex. I’m just having a bath because I saw the claw foot tub and wanted to relax in some bubbles for a little bit, and he left a note saying he won’t be back for another hour.”

“Do you know how crazy that sounds, Eliza?” Lacey sounded perplexed. “You went to your boss’s house to work and instead you’re having a bath.”

“I’m going to work after my bath. It’s huge, Lacey. Like so huge that I can stretch out my whole body. You know how much I love baths!”

“Yes, I know you like baths, but that doesn’t explain why you’re currently in your boss’s bath. What if he comes home and catches you?”

“I didn’t think about that,” I said and sighed into the phone. That was a lie, of course. I’d thought about it and dismissed it. He was going to be gone for an hour and I wouldn’t take that long. Plus, if he did come back earlier, maybe he’d be so aroused that he’d make a move. Not that I wanted him to make a move, of course…well, not really.

“If he sees you naked in his bath, he’s going to think that that’s an invitation to get into the bathtub and get naked with you.”

“No he won’t,” I said and sat up quickly in the bathtub and listened to see if I could hear any noises in the house. My heart was racing as I imagined him walking in and seeing my naked body covered by bubbles. What would he do? More than just go down on me, I was sure. He’d have to take me then. He wouldn’t be able to resist me.
