I'm relieved that I had so much work at the office to keep my mind occupied since Rosie has kept her distance from me. She's made it very clear that what we have is physical. There is nothing I can do to change her mind. My days have been full of activity at work, and in the evenings, I've been working with Giselle on the preparations for this horrible wedding. I long to be with Rosie, but I know she doesn't want anything more than just physical intimacy. After being greeted with a wonderful surprise on Thursday afternoon, I experience a change in mood. Rosie comes in wearing black leggings, a white crop top, and a baseball cap with her hair down.

"Hi," I say as I stand.

"Hey, I thought you'd like some lunch. I made sliders and fries for the boys when they arrived today." She looks at me, "They are excited to see you."

"Thank you," I welcome her into my office, she places the bag of food on my desk and looks around. She stops and notices the picture of her and the boys sitting on one of the shelves.

She points to it, "Does Gisselle know about this?"

"Ya, she hates it." I laugh.

She purses her lips together continuing to look around as I close my office door. She admires the view from the office window for just a moment before walking toward me,

"Well, Earl is waiting outside. Don't forget the boys have a game tonight."

"I'll be there," I assure her.

"Good," She smiles. She goes to open the door but I stop her. Turning her to face me.

"We need to talk about what's happening between us."

"No we don't." She tells me. I feel myself getting irate by her stubbornness.

"Yes, we do."

"Fine, you wanna talk, then talk."

She catches me off guard, I didn't think she would agree to talk about it. She looks at me waiting for me to start speaking, "Here's the thing, I don't know what to say, or do or think." I back her up against the wall and watch as her breathing becomes heavier, "I don't know why; I just know that right now in this office I want to rip your clothes off and kiss every inch of your body while everyone passing by the doors, hears and wishes they were us." I'm mesmerized by her eyes, I can see the desire in them and it's almost too much for me to handle. I reach my hand up and lightly brush her cheek with my fingertips.

Her mouth presses against mine. When she runs her fingers through my hair, it sends shivers up my spine. The intensity of her kiss increases, and I find my hand traveling down her stomach and sliding beneath her panties. My fingers, working their alchemic wonders. She gives out a moan, which I am able to catch with my mouth. I can feel her tensing up, but before she can release herself, there is a tap at the door, which freezes us both. We swiftly pull away before I notify whoever it is to enter the office.

In walks the devil herself. She looks at Rosie with narrow eyes.

"I'm sorry, was I interrupting something?" Anger pools within her as she gives Rosie a disgusted look.

"No, Rosalie was just dropping off some food," I turn to Rosie, "Thank you, and tell the boys I will see them tonight."

She smiles and walks away. Gisselle takes a seat and makes herself comfortable, giving me a questioning look. I sit down and rub my temples.

This day was just ruined. It had been going so well up until now.
