I smiled.

He looked at me and said, let's go inside. He walked me to the bedroom and he laid on the bed.

"I'm gonna go shower"

He replied "don't!"

"Don't?" I questioned

He said " lay under the covers with me and let me become intoxicated on your scent for a while."

"Oh yeah?" I asked

He smiled and held his arm out. I laid in bed with him and for a while, everything was perfect. Nothing at all mattered when I was in his arms. I don't remember dozing off but I was awakened by the smooth sound of Brian Mcknight's "Crazy Love". Frank wasn't in bed with me. I rolled over to check the time, it was 11:21p.m. I jumped up and ran to the bathroom to take a quick shower, and there's where I ran into frank who was sitting in a fresh bubble bath.

"Come join me" he said.

"I have to go home"

"I know. But first, you're going to join me"

I gave in and got inside the tub. The water was steamy and smelled of lavender.

Frank pulled the hair pins from my hair and used my scrunchy to secure a messy top bun to make sure my hair doesn't get wet.

"Let me bathe you" he said.

"Okay." I weakly replied

He lathered the loofa in body wash and began to bathe me, he rubbed every inch of my body and washed my feet. Once done, he helped me out of the tub and dried my body and oiled me in coco butter.

"This is relaxing." I said

"That's what I was hoping for."

So much was going through my head and I just had to ask.

"Why me, Frank?"

"Why not you? You know you better than anyone else so tell me why it shouldn't be you"

I was speechless.

He said "I'm waiting"

"I mean, you're successful and married to a great woman. You're handsome, there's a lot of beautiful women in the office."

He stood with a seductive look on his face and said

"All of that is true but since you "know me" you left out a few key details about me that would have answered your own question."

I replied "which is?"

"That I'm attracted to your mind. Any woman can be physically attractive, which you are but there's just something about the way you carry yourself and rock a room. Deysire Washington you're a fucking force, girl. You're here because I've never wanted a woman as bad as I've grown to want you."

"We're both married, Frank."

"And both still here."
