As I was going towards my desk, I was feeling that something is different here.Everyone were working peacefully which was rare considering the office started just now.There was pin drop silence, no voice at all.

My desk was only a few meters away, as it came in the line I knew the reason for such silence.There was Mr Stone standing beside my desk, his back against me, watching all the employees.

Subconsciously I started walking slowly and the anticipation that I will get to see him made my heart beat fast.I reached my desk and he turned.His expression were blank when he saw me but I could notice the way his eyes were shining.

"You're late Miss Jones."

This was the first sentence he said  meeting me for the first time after our heart to heart revelation.

He said that very loudly  so everyone there were looking at us.

I checked the time and yes I was five minutes late.

"I am sorry." I said embarrassed.

I don't want him to think that from now on I will not take this job seriously just because I know that he also likes me.

"You'll get the punishment, but right now I have something important to discuss with you all so you meet me at lunch in my office."  He said and I saw a hint of smile on his face.

At that time I knew I was not in trouble.He was only finding a reason for me to be in his office.That thought made my insides go nuts.I was controlling so much not to grin like crazy but it was proving difficult so I bit my lip hard to control.

"Everyone here right now!" He said very loudly for everyone to hear.

Everyone began to get up and move their things to reach us.The silent atmosphere began to get a little noisy and Mr Stone took this as an opportunity to flirt with me and make me blush.

"Don't bite your lip so hard Miss Jones, I don't want to taste blood." He whispered so that only I could hear.

Oh God!

He was making the surroundings hot here and if he will continue to say things like that I won't be able to think straight.

But before I could reply, people started gathering around me.

I put my bag on the desk and kept one hand on it and other hand on the desk behind the bag.

"OK, you all know you are very important for our company.Our whole future depends on you......."

Mr Stone started his speech to encourage everyone to work more hard, to be honest he was very good at encouraging.He was saying that we are important, he was making us feel that the company cannot survive with us, he was using this encouraging technique and it was working so damn good.

Everyone was engrossed in listening to him.His expressions screamed professionalism, and I was finding it hard to concentrate on his speech as my eyes always went towards his lips, thinking about what he said earlier and how it would feel to kiss him.But his wordings and voice always made me stop my daydream and listen, he was a good speaker.

As I was listening carefully to each and every word he was speaking, I felt something touching my hand which was on the desk behind my bag.I looked at my hand to see Mr Stone's hand slowly covering my hand completely.
