I drive my black BMW westward on the highway to go see Leo. He’s at the station, and I’m bringing him dinner in a gesture of gratitude for all that he’s done for me. It is, after all, the least I can do considering how he’s put himself out there for me, and for how protective he’s been. I’ve never felt so safe with anyone before.

I didn’t even attempt to cook it. We’ve been there before! Ha! A man who can cook and blow me away in the bedroom is not a bad combination. I just picked him up some takeout, and while it’s not much, I hope he likes it and appreciates the gesture.

As I drive, I think about Leo. He is all I could’ve imagined to have in a guy. And things are working out great. That gives me a sense of nervous excitement. I always feel that around him.

That now familiar feeling in the pit of my stomach creeps in. I have a deep passion for him, and it makes me shy. I’ve never felt this way around anyone. We’re so connected now that it hurts me to be apart. And yet, some portion of me is frightened to repeat past mistakes, and to get hurt.

Now that I’m thinking about Leo, however, that intimate warmth spreads over my body. This too, I’ve never felt with anyone to the degree that I have it with him. He is special for sure. Just the thought of it makes me want to come right here, but I have to contain myself because I’ve arrived at the station.

I pull in and instantly feel calmer. Just knowing I’m in the realm of safety makes me feel better. This is one place where my stalker wouldn’t dare to find me. I wish I could just curl up here forever and live with Leo and be safe. Hell, if Leo was with me, I could live anywhere.

I step out of my car, straighten my flirty “going out” skirt, and get ready for all that’s about to befall me; Leo and his gorgeous charm. I can’t wait to see him because the more time I can spend with him the better.

I go through security then I’m safely inside. They bring me to his office and he’s surprised, not having anticipated my arrival.

“Awww, look! You brought me dinner. How sweet.” He plants a lovely little kiss on my cheek.

“Don’t worry,” I tease. “I didn’t cook it.”

He laughs and spreads that bright smile across his face. “You know I’d eat if even if you did.”

He’s lying to save my feelings. He welcomes me into his office and makes sure I have a comfy seat, before taking his place behind the desk. He leans back and stares at me in a purposeful way.

“So, what do you have planned for tonight?”

“Well, I’m going to have dinner with Gerri…a little much needed girl time. And then, we’re going out!”

“Out?” he questions me. “Listen, you better be safe, okay? I hate to not be with you in these circumstances.”

“It’s okay, Leo, I’ll have Gerri there. She’s a good person for me to be with right now. I have to talk about this stuff with somebody.”

“What about me?”

“I mean, having a girl’s perspective.”

“Oh okay,” he pouts. “I see now. I’m not a girl.”

“Um, definitely not.”

With that, we laugh and I feel at ease. It’s the first time I’ve felt this comfortable in awhile. For all my nerves about Leo, he really does comfort me and make me feel tranquil and secure. I just need to get near him to feel that. At the same time, there’s an aching need growing within my thighs that ignites all passion in me. Our sexual chemistry is constantly on point.

He stares at me with ardor in his eyes. I almost can’t take the heat between us. It feels as though we need to be together right away.

“So, we, Gerri and I, are going out for dinner, but I would love it if you could stop by later for dessert.” I eye him carefully, wondering what his response will be.

He stares me down in a provocative way, and I know he’s thinking something… maybe he’s undressing me with his eyes? Maybe he really does want to stop by later and that’s what’s got him going? I can’t be sure, but I can tell that something’s going on with him.

He comes over to me from behind his desk and pulls me up to face him. He holds me tightly in his arms. His suit reveals his beautiful stature, his bulging biceps, and the bulge in his pants. It also reminds me of where we are. He can’t expect to have me here... can he? The look in his eyes now would make it seem so.

He says, “You know I like to have my dessert before dinner.”

There is a hungry expression on his face that is reserved only for me. He’s a man with a lot of desire. I can only hope to match his passion. But really, I know he will make it his job to bring that out of me. The feelings between us are mutual, but he has the stronghold, he has my respect, and because of that I can let myself fall deeply into the abyss that is my affection for him. He fills a void in me that I didn’t even know was there. He so quickly had become my universe, and I fully intend to give myself over to him tonight, and every time he seeks me thereafter.

If all the events in my life have led me to meet Leo, then maybe it will have been worth it.
