"Hi. My name is Bitsy. Well, it's not it's Kayla but my parents thought as much as I loved the rhyme, and spiders, it fits. I'm 24, I have two cats, one dog and a tarantula. I drive a 1998 Impreza and I think those are the closest I'll ever get to having children and I'm..."
A little.
My heart hammered in my chest. I was hyper-aware of how hot the room was, of the sweat coating my upper lip, of my teeth cutting of my lower lip.
Everyone in the room watched me; expecting me to finish my sentence. I kneaded my knuckles into my thighs, my nerves fraying at the attention. I tried to smile at the interviewer. I must have looked uncomfortable because he smiled reassuringly at me and began to speak.
"Alright everyone, now that you've all been formally introduced, it's time to do some team building."
People started to stand up and go to the coffee machine stand in the corner or headed for the door.
I felt less self-conscious standing. I smoothed my skirt over my legs and grabbed my bag quickly, dashing for the front door.
I need a smoke.
My hands shook as I rolled the tobacco into the paper. I tried to light it multiple times when a voice from behind me offered to help.
I yelped and spun around. It was the man who interviewed us, and his was extended towords me, a lit zippo inches from the end of my cigarette. I didn't mean to maintain eye contact while I leaned forward but I didn't know what else to do.
He cocked a dark eyebrow, a small smirk tugging at his lips.
I inhaled my first puff and blinked, taking a step back.
"I like your bag Bitsy," he smiled, "I'm Leon, by the way."
"Hi Leon," I smiled nervously, "I'm... well you already know." I chuckled awkwardly, "Thank you."
Leon stood beside me and lit his own cigarette.
"It's very cute, what is his name?" Leon's voice was soft and sweet. Caring.
"His name is Tigger." I beamed, slipping.
"Wow, Tigger," Leon grinned, "But he isn't a tiger and isn't even orange," He wiggled his eyebrows.
"No! You're so silly," I giggles, "I like Tigger, no- I love Tigger, and I love spiders, so it seemed fitting." I explained.
Wasn't it obvious?
I took another drag.
Okay, Bitsy, that got a bit out of hand. You need to reign yourself in.
"So, do you own the company?" I cleared my throat, Making an efforts to sound grown up and mature.
"I do, well, my father does, I just train the new recruits," He nodded sitting on the step in front of the doors, "Sit with me, it's a nice night."
"Oh, I- uhm,-"
"It wasn't a question, Bitsy," Leon patted the space next to him.
My heart rate kicked up a notch. He used his daddy voice.
After thinking for a moment I decided that the worst thing that could happen was he would find a flaw and stand back up. But he didn't.
He asked if I wanted to get coffee with him.
That was almost a year ago. Since then I had moved in to his house with all my animals, which he loved. We had established a relationship and I was comfortable around him.
There was one little bump though, a hiccup we would stumble over every week or so. Sex. I was a virgin at 24 years old.
And Leon in all his masculine glory, was clearly not.
