Business Only

Chapter 3: New Guy

It's five o'clock in the morning and I'm supposed to be at work by six thirty. "Dammn, I knew I should have taken my ass to bed on time." Running to the bathroom throwing clothes off and on my body just to get ready for work. Snapping my bra on while trying to keep my hair out of the way of tangling my hair within my lingerie. After getting ready for work, I decided to start my car up outside because it was below negative two degrees but also sunny and shiny outside. Still wouldn't stop me from trying to keep warm right after having to walk a few feet in the cold weather just to get from point A to point B. Finally making it to work just in time still rushing into the building, a new face appears out of the distance. "Alright, I've been working with this company for four years now and I've never seen this face before." Saying to myself and tilting my head to the left a little bit as if this guy was a picture frame and just by me tilting any kind of way would make it better. "Oh hello! Are you Janette?" The mysterious guy looks at me with big hazel eyes and a perfect smile on his face holding his hand out to me. "Um.. Yes I am, and you are?" I ask with a bit of a hot temper. "Very glad to meet you Miss. Janette, my name is Garrett and today is my first day, please forgive me." He lightly grabs my hand and leans over to kiss it looking up at me with those beautiful eyes and nicely cut and lined beard. He couldn't have been any older than twenty-three and about six and a half feet tall. "You're too kind Garrett, please excuse my attitude, it was a long night, now follow me this way so I could show you the basics." Leading him into my personal office to place my folders and keys on the desk with Garrett closely behind me observing his surroundings. "Please, take a seat Garrett." Pointing to the brand new office chair right in front of my desk observing him from the top of his head to his toes. "Tell me a little bit about yourself and who/what led you to this company." Slowly putting my glasses on so I could read him better. "Well, I've heard a lot about you an-" After that, my mind went blank, his deep voice ran through my soul to my heart. Although, I couldn't hear a word he was saying, I did notice the fact that he looked very clean and pleasing. Leaning in closer to snap out of my nasty thoughts about this guy, business meant business and I went on about mine. The meeting was over and Garrett stops me in the midst of everything. "I do apologize for disturbing you Miss. Janette but may I ask you a personal question?" Looking down on me with those broad shoulders and muscular arms and white teeth. Everything is just so perfect on this guy, I thought to myself. "It depends on what the question is, and please just call me Janette, Garrett." Saying to him trying not to show my lust for him. Not trying to be a complete ass hole but I don't want him to know I want him either. "Alright, are you currently in a relationship? Married or anything?" It stopped me completely, the question caught me off guard and being unsure on how I wanted to answer it, I tried my best. "Well Garrett, to be honest, no. Single as ever, no type of relationship status. May I ask why?" Awkwardly looking to and from him. "That's a shame, such a beautiful woman like you should be in one, and I asked because I was wondering if- okay well we just met and everything but maybe sometime we could go for breakfast, lunch or dinner as a start?" Him rubbing the back of his neck looking at me as if he is afraid of what my answer would be. Either it was devastating or not. Smiling anyway because I've heard those words before, I tell him I wouldn't mind a date with him. He smiles at me and shakes my hand lightly and goes on his way.
