Colleagues | Jesse Klaver x Rob Jetten | English

Part 4

-Jesse-

I see Rob getting undressed and he tosses his boxer in the sand. What is he doing? Is he coming with me in the water? Butt naked. What.. "What are you doing?" I ask him with a chuckle. "Coming with you" he winks at me and I feel a little tickle in my belly. Rob dives underwater. When he comes above the water, his dark brown hair is slicked back and two strands of hair stick to his forehead. Jesus christ that's hot..

Damn Jesse, are you crazy?? He's your colleague!

Yeah but i'm also butt naked with him in the water. So thinking he's hot isn't a big deal!

The devil and angel in my head are having an argument but the only thing I can look at is Rob. He looks at me too. "What.. l-let me..." I come closer to Rob and put the two strands of hair behind his ear. He looks at me very intensely. I go a little deeper into the water with my shoulders but stay close to him. This man does some unholy this to me.

While looking in eachothers eyes, we get closer and closer and closer. I can hear his heavy breath. When we want to lean in, we both turn away. I chuckle. Rob looks me in the eyes while keeping his head down. He laughs. I feel the blood rising in my cheeks. "I'm sorry" I say. "No no no it's okay" Rob says. "Shall we go outside the water. I'm freezing cold!" He rubs his hands on his arms. "Yes please!" I say. We both get out of the water and turn away from eachother when we dress up again.

"That was very refreshing!" I look at Rob. "Yeah it was huh? Haven't skinny dipped in a while" he chuckles. Wait? He did this before? Wow.. "I-It was my first t-time..." I stutter. I lay my eyes on the ground to not look at Rob. He turns his head to me when I speak my sentence. "You never did this?" He asks me. I shake my head. "Oh.. I'm sorry if I pushed you or anything! I didn't mean to Jesse..." "No it"s alright! I wanted to!" My cheeks start getting red again.

We talk a little and look at the stars. Rob even blushed a few times! I discovered that he can look very intensely at me when I talk. I'm not much of person who looks people deep in the eyes, but I feel like there's a magnetic field between us. Which makes our eyes look at eachothers very often. The butterflies in my stomach go crazy when I feel Robs arm brush against mine. We walk up to our bikes, unlock them, and start biking.

"Well it is already 2 pm. I think we should go directly home." Rob says. I nod. "Great idea" We bike through The Hague in silence. It is a very nice and calming silence. Not awkward at all. "Well I have to turn this way in a few minutes" I point my finger to the right. "Alright" Rob stars. We both stop biking and stand at the corner of a street. "I had a really fun night with you Jes. I loved our conversations a lot. I hope you liked it too" He shyly looks down and I see his cheeks turn red. We are standing under a lantern. "Yes! I definetley had fun! Thank you for tonight Jetten" I say to him.

He softly touches my hand with his hand. His finger tips brush against the back of my hand. When I realize what is happening I look up to him. And he looks up to me. We look at eachother for a few seconds and he then puts his hand in his pocket. "Goodnight Jesse" he says. And not much later he is biking away. I sigh.

15 minutes later I am home. I walk to the kitchen to grab a glass of wine. Hmm which one should I get? I grab the nearest bottle and fill my glass. Not much later I plop on the couch. I should text Rob to thank him for tonight! I look for my phone in my suit, pockets and even on the couch. Were the hell did I put this thing?? Then it hits me. My backpack is still at Rob's place! Shit!

I put my glass of wine down, grap my coat, keys and then start biking to Rob. I know were he lives since today. It is a 20 minute bike from my home. Not much later I arrive at his place. I softly put my bike down and walk up to his door. When I look through his big windows, I see some lights and a tv on. That means he is still awake. I decide to knock instead of ringing. I knock on the window. A few seconds later, Rob opens the door in his boxer and a robe..... My heart skips a beat....

Extra long chapter!! Thank you for the love on this book already. Means a lot xxx
