The Office Affair

Chapter 18: Complications and Clarity

Back to Colton's Pov

That question came out of nowhere. I am glad I was able to say no immediately but I'm still wondering why he would ask me that. Why would he want to date me when we weren't even serious in the past?

"Is that your only reason to not date me? Because I am your boss?"

It seems like he is trying to fish out something. I've been honest with all my answers and I want to continue it that way. This time, I will try to be more honest with my thoughts and feelings. 

"There are other reasons of course. Plus, I will be busy balancing my studies and my workload. You of all people know how time-consuming our work can be."

"So you are saying that you would date me if you have free time?"

I don't know why he is being persistent but I have to shut down his idea of dating me anytime soon.

"That... and as I have told you a while ago...you are my boss. I'm sure HR has a lot to say about that."

"Interesting. So without all those reasons, you would still date me, right? Then let us change the terms and conditions and say that we are just fucking on the side. We will not date but we can see each other in our free time. How about that?" He smirks as if he got it all figured out. Maybe he did? 

What happened to his long list of fuck buddies though? I'm sure men and women are lining up to see him so why does it have to be me with all our complicated past? On top of that, he is my boss currently so it is hard to date him even if I wanted to. 

"How about no? You see... I am working for you so I'm sure sooner or later, it will affect our working relationship. And I just don't have the time to be with someone right now."

"You mean to say you can't be professional at work? C'mon Colton, if I can keep it professional then I'm sure you can too. And I'm not going to occupy all your free time. We can check our schedule to see the most optimal time that we can see each other."

Fair enough.

"But why does it have to be me? I'm sure you are seeing other people who would gladly give all their attention to you."

He laughed. The type of laugh like he was talking to a kid that doesn't understand what an adult is saying to them. I just gave him the look. I think I asked him a valid question.

"Why would I even look for anyone when I am already having the best time with you? I know every sweet spot of your body like you know mine so there is no point in even trying it with someone other than you."

Okay, that got me a little bit flustered. I wasn't expecting him to say that. I avoided his gaze. 

Sure I enjoy the sex that we have but I have been out in the game for a while. I just thought that can have great sex with anyone because he is just that good.

"You are so cute when your face turns red."

"Shut up." My face easily turns red when I am flustered, embarrassed, or feeling shy.

"If you don't stop that, then I just have to fuck you again. You know when it comes to you, I just don't have any self-control."

I can see that.

"Then why don't you do it?" I wasn't able to stop myself from admitting that I am just as horny as he is.

"Don't tempt me, Colton. I know your hole is still sore."

He is right. It is still hurting from the fuck session we've had earlier but here I am, wanting more. This is what I was scared of in the first place.
