Regret

Valerie's POV

I woke to the sound of soft snoring and an arm wrapped around my waist. A rush of memories brought me to realization that I had slept with my boss and best friend last night.

"Bruce! Bruce wake up!" I said shaking him awake.

He groaned," Good morning."

"Uhhh why don't we go get breakfast," I suggested, anything to get out of this position and not seem rude.

"Ok," He said. He unwrapped his arm from my waist and stood up and stretched.

"Hey, are you ok," Bruce asked. I nodded and pulled myself out of bed. I spotted my white button down shirt. I reached down and pulled it on.

"Wanna go take a shower," Bruce asked. I nodded smiling. We went a took about a fifteen minute shower. After I found all my clothes and we were both dressed , we went to a pancake house which was down the street.

Shame and guilt as remorse were the only emotions I felt. I couldn't bring me self to smile. We were seated quickly and our food was out just a quick.

"Um Bruce listen," I started. "Last night shouldn't have happened."

He didn't look angry, only understanding.

"I know," Bruce said.

"Can we just put it behind us? Like it never happened," I asked. He nodded his head smiling.

"Ya, I'd like that," He said. We enjoyed the rest of our breakfast as friends and colleagues. It was wonderful.
