The days couldn't hurry up enough. I had a date with Danielle tomorrow night, and although I was nervous, I was more excited to actually do something fun with my life.
For the first time in a good three years, I had something to look forward to; I wasn't going to ignore it.
My brother, Cole, kept picking on me being in a chipper mood. I guess he could say chipper, but really I felt like I was floating on clouds. Everyday since I had met Danielle, no matter how many times I haven't been able to see her, I was always eager to be with her. As soon as she was in my sight I had to have her in my arms. Touching her skin, seeing her smile up close. Feeling her lips on mine.
Almost too on cue, my phone vibrated on my desk lighting up my screen, showing a text from Danille. Tossing my pen to the side, I plucked my phone up and unlocked the screen.
Danielle: Red or green? .-.
ME: We're in September and you're over here talking about Chiristmas colors. I think you should slow your roll on gifts.
Unless you are the present I get to unwrap on Christmas Day. ;)
My dick jumped at the idea in my slacks. Her naked body tied up in a massive amount of red ribbon. Going over her breasts, over her thighs and ass. Her hands tied behind her back and a big bow sat on top of her head. I groaned. Just then my phone vibrated in my hands.
Danielle: No, genius, for our date tomorrow. :) What color should I wear?
ME: Surprise me. ;)
"Knock knock." Cole bellowed before bursting through my office door. I locked my phone, tucked it in my pocket immediately and received another message. My palms were itching to reply to her, but it would have to wait.
"Sure Cole, come right on in." I dead panned, grinning wide when he gave the finger. Turning slightly Cole shut the door and waltz over to my guest chair plopping himself down.
Cole was my brother, a couple years younger and it definitely showed. Although people said we looked like we could be twins; I never saw it. Cole was about my height, a bit more bulky, no dimples like me and his hair was dark shade of brown and a matching set of green eyes like mine. Like our mothers.
"Of course I sure will, and if you don't mind.." Cole reached forward and snagged a mini Snickers candy bar from my candy dish. Just in case I had visitors or needed a snack.
"Fuck ff and get your own candy dish." I rolled my eyes. "Not like you need it anyway."
"Hey. I can fit it into my macros. Race isn't for another month. I can spare one or two." Cole grinned popping the candy into his mouth.
My brother was in training for some marathon that was being held. And since he was a shared owner of the company, it was going to be considered a corporate outing. Of which was required for all of us to be there to cheer him on. My bet was with a couple of guys in accounting he wouldn't survive the first twenty minutes.
I said he wouldn't last the first ten.
"Sure, whatever." I snorted while adjusting some spreadsheets. "Do you need something, or can I work?"
"Depends, who were you texting when I walked in?"
"None of your business." I clipped.
"Ooooh, a sassy one today." Cole winked.
"Only for you, Colty-kins." I winked, and Cole glared at me.
"Watch your mouth there, brother. You might be older but I will still kick your ass."
