I sat down at my desk trying to calm down so I could figure out what was going on. I was more so mad because Alisha hadn't communicated or told me anything about what was going on.

I grabbed my cell phone and called Alisha. Letting it ring until the voicemail, I didn't get an answer so I sent her a text. The text said, "What is going on with these papers on my desk for Lacey's termination? You need to call me right away. As bad as I wanted to give her a few choice words I didn't. Not wanting to jump the gun, I decided to calm down and find out what happened first. Knowing how Alisha was, I knew she wouldn't just fire anybody for nothing. I Knew I was letting my feelings for this girl get the best of me.

Ring, Ring, Ring!
I hurried to my desk hearing my phone ring. I checked the caller id and it was Alisha returning my call.

Hello."Hey Antony, what's going on?!" I was trying to find out what's going on with these papers that were on my desk this morning concerning the termination of Lacey Lewis. Why is she being terminated? "I caught her doing some very inappropriate things at the meeting. Let's just say the things she was doing were a form of harassment," she said. My eyes grew big and I was kind of angry all over again. Thinking about what Alisha said, but at the same time I'm kind of mad with Alisha because she could have talked to me about this before she made a decision to just fire Lacey. Well Alisha, I feel as though we should have sat down and had a conversation before you made your decision. "Anthony we will talk about this later. As soon as I come back in town we will have a meeting with her, but as for now my decision stands.

I hung up the phone mad as hell. If im running the building I should have some say so in what goes on around here. I called Lacey right after to find out what was going on. We talked for a while and she told me Alisha caught her walking up behind Brad and she walked up on her about to slap her. She said she was only trying to speak to him because they knew each other. His mom used to baby sit her and her siblings when they were little. Lacey said he probably didn't recognize her due to the fact that they hadn't seen each other in years. I didn't know what was really going on, but I believed Lacey. I didn't feel like she had any reason to lie.

Putting that off to the side I had a few clients scheduled for the day. I got down to business and the day turned out nice. Lacey and I had a date planned for tonight. I really liked her and things seemed to be going good so far so I wanted to take some where nice.

Brad's p.o.v.***
My head had been all over the place for the past few days. I think I was getting nerves and scared about Alisha and I. Before our trip I went shopping for matching engagement rings. The love I had for this girl was unexplainable. This relationship was so different. I wanted to give my all to her and sometimes I didn't even understand why. Going out the past few nights kind of messed things up, but I had to make it right because I couldn't lose her. With all my issues and all my flaws she still accepted me and loved me for me. She wasn't after my money or the things I did for her. That in it self spoke volumes of the woman I had fallen in love with.

I watched her as she walked to edge of the sand on the beach. Her long beautiful hair swung down her back as she walked to the water. Her choice of bathing suit had me all excited. She wore a tiny all black bikini that set off her but. The view of the back of her had me wanting her right there on the beach. I didn't even notice that I was smiling as hard as I was until my jaws began to sting.

She must have known I was watching her. As soon as she stepped in the water, she posed. I leaned up in my chair dropping my phone and my sun glasses. DAMN, I mumbled! Licking my bottom lip I bit down on it so hard it started to bleed. My manhood now at full attention from the sight of my lady. I watched as she enjoyed the water. It was nice to know she was having a great time.
