As the judge banged the gavel, many emotions filled the courtroom. You see tears of joy and reactions of disbelief. I turned and congratulated my partners. This was the first big case my boss let me have, and i nailed it. It wasn't easy being a woman trying to make partner but i wanted to be the best ,and i worked hard at it. As i opened the courthouse doors, we were bombarded by reporters dying to know how we did it. How did we prove our client innocent when the media had already made him out as guilty. All i could do is look at my team and smile..."just trying to do our job". My assistant grabbed.my arm and we proceeded down the stairs gloating in victory.
Later that evening, the firm hosted a victory party. My assistant and i were looking elegant as usual as we ordered drinks from the bar. Everyone stopped and congratulated us on our win. We walked around shaking hands while we sipped on our double Hennessy shots. As my boss approached i asked my assistant to excuse us while we chatted. He congratulated me and let me know how proud of me he was. In my mind i was thinking damn right but i kept it professional to a smile and a handshake. I assured him that i would try to continue on a successful path. He definitely agreed and also informed me that he was handing over his million dollar case to me. With the victory i just had he was certain i could close this case. I was honored and assured another victory. We tapped our glasses and he politely walked away. I was smiling from ear to ear. And when my Assistant caught up with me i gave her the great news. We were like two little girls on Christmas 'cheesin' from ear to ear. She asked me what i was getting ready to do and i told her go home and turn in. Its was only 9:14pm. She informed me that her cousin was DJing a party and she was getting ready to go there. She asked if i wanted to go, you know just for a little while. Usually i say no to her but i was floating and feeling good. I said yes. She was so excited. We got in our cars and i followed her. As we pulled up, it was kinda dark but i was ok with it. She and i both pulled up and parked. We got out and i hit the locks on "bae"! Since i didn't have a man my car was my boo. And i just put some chrome shoes on him too. When we went to the door we got in for a discounted price because we were with the DJ. We walked in and it was wall to wall packed. People taking pics over in the corner the ladies getting their hustle on on the dance floor. Little did.my assistant know I felt right at home. I grabbed a table that was already equipped with some Champagne on ice and 4 glasses. I sat down and poured me a drink. I toasted myself and began to sip my glass of champagne and it tasted wonderful. As i sipped on my drink i watched my assistant dance with her boyfriend. They were so cute together. Ive been knowing her since we were kids and this was the happiest i had ever seen her. Coming from a family where the father was the only income in a house of 7 people, i think she did wonderful for herself. I was very proud of her. As the night went on i wanted to hear some jams, so i walked over to the DJ and asked did he do request. I had never met him before now but he was very sexy. He leaned over the podium and asked if he could play something for me. I asked him to play Slow Jam by Atlantic Starr. He just smiled, which in turn made me smile as well. As i walked away i could tell he was watching, so i put a lil stank on the walk. I had on a short pencil type skirt and a silk blouse. I sat down and crossed my soft caramel legs. I proceeded to pick up my drink and take a sip when i noticed a hand. It was the DJ. I put my hand in his, and we motioned to the dancefloor. He put his hand around my waist and pulled me closer. His smell was intoxicating. I closed my eyes to get a better sense and it was intriguing. As we danced we talked and he started to tell me more about himself. I was indeed impressed. Not only with him but with his gorgeous smile. It could light up a room. Before i knew it, we had danced through three songs. We were enjoying each other so much we didn't realize that the songs had changed. We both giggled, and then he raced to change the song. I returned to my table to finish my drink with the smell of his cologne and his beautiful smile still flowing through my mind. Next thing i know, he played the international hustle song by Stevie Wonder. Everyone was on the floor including me. It was such a break from the white collar parties i was used to. Everyone was having such a great time. I truly enjoyed myself. As i was leaving i gave my assistant a hug and thanked her for the great time. As i started to the door, the DJ approached me again. He gave me his card and a rose. He also said he was hoping to see me again. I took his card and smiled. He then proceeded to walk me to my car. As we approached my car, i reached out to open my door and he declined my hand like a bad credit card. He made sure i knew he was a complete gentleman. He kissed me on the side of my lips very gently and wished me a very good night. That it had been indeed. I pulled in my garage and walked in the house placing my beautiful rose in some water. It smelled just like him. I walked upstairs, took a shower and went straight to sleep.
After two days of being off i was back at work. My assistant and i had to gather information for the big case my boss put in my lap. When i arrived at my office there were some flowers on my desk and card..." A rose for a beautiful rose". I was shocked. But was smiling hard as hell. I sat at my computer and began to process some of this work. At 2 o'clock, I had an appointment to get my sound system checked in my car. My speakers had some static in it and i definitely couldn't have that. I took it to the shop and low and behold guess who comes to check my speakers. The DJ. He looked even better in the daytime. Damn! He only had on a crisp white tee and some nice blue jeans with some fresh ass J's. Don't get me wrong I love a man with intelligence, but you add a lil down to earth to that and i think he's dangerous. But that cologne...he smell out of this world! He looked in car and checked out my speaker. He just said had a bad wire that needed replacing. Shouldn't take more than 15 mins. Next thing i know i look up and it was 430. I had been talking to him for over two hours. I had to go back to work. I got in my car and he told me hold on a second. He ran next door to the florist and bought one rose. He handed the rose, leaned in and gave me a very passionate kiss. He uttered, "Have a great day winked and walked off. My heart was thumping. I turned out and sped off headed back to work. I worked until 1130 or until i couldn't hold my eyes open anymore. I drove home and went straight to sleep.
For the next few days i put my head straight into my work. We had two days to submit our argument to the partners and i was determined to win! My assistant and i got our paperwork together and sure enough we went to the partner and nailed it. They were so proud and we were all anxious to see what the prosecution had up there sleeve. The next few days we were in the courtroom battling it out. I presented my best argument as well as supporting evidence to back up what i was saying. After 2 long days of deliberation the jury decided in our favor. We were overjoyed. With this win, we were considered one of the best law firms in the state. I went back to the office and gathered my things. My cell phone began to ring. It was the DJ. I picked it up and we began to converse. I was telling him about the victory party but he was saying he had already knew about my win and he congratulated me. He also said that had planned a victory dinner just for he and I.
I arrived at his place around 7. I had to go home and take a shower and change clothes. I slipped into just a black dress and some slide in heels. Nothing too sharp but still sexy. As i arrived at his home i too off my shoes when i entered the door. I took one step into his cozy white carpet, and then i was slowly wisked off my feet. He picked me up and carried me through the living room. As he pulled my body close to his lips, he pressed firmly against his. My arms slowly wrapped around his neck to indulge his passion even more. He carried me onto the patio deck where he had a candlelight dinner prepared for us. There was only one plate though...He carried me to my chair and gently sat me down. He presented me with a rose and another congratulatory kiss. He took a shrimp off the plate and put it in my mouth. It was so buttery and juicy. He planted another kiss and gently sucked the butter off of my bottom lip. He walked into the kitchen while he left me floating in my seat.
