The next day when Sarah got to work, she found out that there was going to be another half day. That worried her a bit. Never in the years she worked for this company did they do back-to-back unexpected half days. Half days were usually planned or if they were unexpected, it was due to a family emergency. When Sarah tried to talk to her boss, he just brushed her off. When she wouldn't leave, he yelled at her to get out.

'Yeesh. What is up his ass?' Sarah thought. She wanted to push more but didn't want to anger him further. Sarah sighed and went back to work. The girl remembered to text Richard she can meet up for a late lunch. Richard suggested to meet up at this nice restaurant nearby. He assured her it will be his treat.

Sarah was both excited and nervous about meeting up with him. Sarah hopes Richard will bring up the almost kiss. She isn't sure she could. She shook her head trying to forget about and try to get the most out of her half workday.

As Sarah was walking through the site, she stopped to talk to a few of the guys. Apparently, there is a rumor going around that an investor pulled out and that the boss is freaking out. They asked Sarah if she heard of anything. She told them she hasn't heard of anything. Sarah also assured them that rumor seems ridiculous. That the boss is a great guy and he would give us a heads up if anything big like that would be going down. They thanked Sarah and they all went to finish their jobs for the day.

When Sarah got to the restaurant, she started to feel very under dressed. She knew what restaurant Richard suggested but she didn't think about what she was wearing at the time. Sarah was thinking about canceling this lunch when she felt a hand on her lower back. She jumped in surprised and turned around.

"Sorry I didn't mean to sneak up on you." Richard said.

"No, it's okay. I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings." Sarah points back towards the restaurant and then to her outfit. "Is what I am wearing okay?"

Richard looked her up and down slowly. He hated what she was wearing. He knew she was only wearing jeans and a t-shirt for work. Soon, very soon, she won't be wearing those clothes ever again. He and Kevin will be picking out what she wears. Richard smiles at Sarah. "You look amazing. If you would feel more comfortable going elsewhere, we can."

Sarah looked back at the restaurant and then at her outfit again. "We can stay here." Sarah said to Richard. Richard smiled and guided Sarah into the restaurant.

They got into the restaurant and Richard had made sure to make a reservation for a table in the back. That way they have more privacy. He also made sure to ask for menus in a different language so that Sarah will be forced to ask him for help.

Shortly after sitting down the waiter came over, and asked about their drink order. Sarah had looked at the menu trying to find the drink section. She made a small face when she realized that the menu was in a language she didn't understand. She put the menu down and a bit and leaned forward towards Richard. "Um, Richard I can't read this menu. Do you think they have one in English?" Sarah was starting to regret her decision on agreeing to stay here. The waiter left to give them a few more minutes.

"Sorry Sweetheart. They don't. Kevin and I come here all the time and we've never seen another language menu. I didn't even think about that when I choose here. I just know they have really great, healthy food." Richard had a guilty look on his face as he thinks of a solution.

"Oh! I have an idea. I have eaten here plenty of times. How would you feel about me picking out something for you to eat? Trust me I have no doubt you will love whatever I pick for you." Richard said. Sarah needs to get used to them doing this stuff for her. The few times they will go out to eat they will pick what she eats. If she is good, they might let her pick her own desert out.

Sarah smiled at Richards suggestion and closed her menu. "Thank you. I would really appreciate that. For a drink may I please have some water?" "Sure sweetheart." Richard said. When the waiter came over again Richard placed both drink and food orders.

"So how is your day so far?" Richard asked Sarah.

Sarah sighed and sunk down in her seat a bit. "It kind of sucks. My boss is in a bad mood. Now don't get me wrong everyone has bad days but this is different." She then went onto explain how her day went and what happened with her boss and coworkers.

Richard was glad he rarely showed his emotions on his face. He was super excited to hear about what is going on at his Sarahs work. He feels like he can make a safe assumption that her boss is having issues with an investor. In his head he smirked, happy that his plan is working. In reality he kept his face mostly straight with a little bit of concern in his eyes.

Richard leans over and grabs Sarah left hand. "Listen Baby Doll I wouldn't worry about work. I'm sure your boss is just going through some personal things. They might be a bit crazy and want to wait till they settle till he tells everyone."

Sarah felt better at what Richard said. Both Richard and Kevin always know what to say to help her feel better. "Thanks Richard. You are probably right. Just need to give him some space."

The waiter came back with their drinks and food. The two sat in silence while they ate. It was a comfortable silence. Which surprised Sarah a bit since what happened last night. As she was eating some sauce got onto her lips and she went to lick it off. As she did, she looked up and saw Richard was staring at her lips.

'Oh crap. I want to bring up what happened last night but I'm not sure how to. I hope he brings it up.' Sarah thought.

"So how is your food? It seems like you're enjoying it." Richard said looking at her lips. He had no intentions of bringing up what happened last night. Kevin and he decided it was a part of making her want them. That while they tease her and try to push her buttons, the guys need her to take initiative. At this moment though all Richard wanted to do was throw her onto the table, kiss her hard and show her who she belongs to.

Sarah took a sip of water and cleared her throat. "Yeah, it's really good. Thank you for picking it out for me." Sarah took another bite of food.

As it came near the end, and they talked about random things and Richard giving her looks she decided she would just blurt out what has been on her mind. "Okay so will you please tell me what the heck happened last night? You know with the whole almost kiss thing."

Richard chuckled a bit and was actually surprised she brought it up. He figured that since she hadn't brought it earlier that she wouldn't at all. "Well, what do you want me to say? You want to be kissed and we are more than happy to kiss you."

"You and Kevin are married. Wouldn't it technically be cheating if you guys kissed me? Well I guess not because you both expressed interest in kissing me. It's wrong though." Sarah started to ramble a bit trying to organize her thought.

"Calm down Sweetie. It wouldn't be cheating. Kevin and I talked about it and figured it would be safer for you to kiss someone you know than a stranger. We would never kiss you without your permission. Also, it doesn't have to be anything romantic. Just kissing nothing more or less. Now I am curious about something. Do you want to kiss us?" Richard asked with an eyebrow raised.

Sarah blushed and looked down trying to figure out how to answer his question. She looked up at him right into his eyes. "No. I do not want to kiss either of you."
