Office Romance Gone Wrong ....
I despised coming to work every day,
just to see the boring faces of my colleagues and to stare at the dull and joyless screen of my PC, until I laid eyes on him. Hunk of a guy with broad muscular shoulders, a chiseled jawline with deep brown eyes and a bold look that's intimidating, as well as strangely warm and calm at the same time.
His voice seemingly, soothes those that are
within an earshot of him and I consider myself fortunate enough to be close to his cabin. The ladies around here cannot get enough of him either, but, alas, there's a secret even to the most eye-catching wonder & that would be...
"Hey Merylinn, what are you up to?" My thoughts are interrupted by one of my close
colleagues William. I look up at him with a small smile and instantly close the diary I was writing on, and cover it with a file and some papers that were lying near it. "Nothing much, just some work." I say casually.
A knock on the door interrupts us before we can say anything and in comes the Adonis I was writing about. I'm awestruck every time that I look at him and each day the desire in my heart to want him intensifies within me.
"Hope I'm not interrupting anything." He says with an incredible smile playing on his lips. I'm too shocked to say anything and I almost hate the effect that he has on me.
"No, you're not babe. Infact, I came over to ask Merylinn if she would like to join us for lunch, that is if she's not too busy." William says looking from him to me.
"Oh, I'm afraid I won't be able to join you guys, but how about a raincheck?" I say not wanting to be the third wheel again.
"Alright then, see ya later Linn." William says and before both of them could walk out of my cabin they share a quick kiss, resting their forehead against each other, nuzzling their noses which makes them both chuckle. This instantly hits me with a sharp pang of jealousy.
I look away trying to hide my annoyance when William looks back at me oblivious to what I'm feeling and says, "Linn, once again I trust you and I know I can count on you that this would remain entirely between the three of us."' He says gesturing to all of us.
I want to scream and say 'No! Can't you see that he's married and has 2 kids? I'll let everyone know about your illicit affair!' but instead I say, "Of course, Will, I won't be saying a word to anyone. You're like my good friend and I would never hurt you this way. Besides, I'm gay for you guys!" I say faking a smile, making them both chuckle at my stupid comment. Moments later, they leave my office shutting the door behind them, only making the silence that filled in after, deafening.
