He's not my dad

Part 7

True to my word I slept in Kate's car on my lunch break, as did Kate. I set my alarm to wake us up after 50 minutes so we could flatten our clothes and make sure we hadn't smudged our make up. The nap had done wonders both of us felt a great deal better and I had finally gotten my shakes under control. I was greatful that Kate had left her car at work the previous day.

The office was a buzz with activity, I wasn't sure what was happening but everyone was running around like lunatics. I decided to stick my head in Mr Benjamins office to see if he could explain it.

"Good Taylor there you are. We have mr groves himself in the building today. He's visiting every floor, we didn't know to expect him. Can you brew fresh coffee and make sure everyone is doing what there meant to" he spoke so quickly that I had missed half of what he had said. He looked so flustered that I just nodded and ran across the floor towards Kate.

"You need to act like your doing work, mr groves is on his way up" i hissed as I caught her napping at her desk.

Kate jumped up and started to re arrange her work station.

"He's on his way up" dan calls.

Everyone practically dove into their seats there was just me stood there like a gormless idiot. I decided to make myself scarce and brew coffee like I had been asked. The kitchen area was like a pig sty so I quickly moved things away so they were hidden from view. I heard commotion in the office as everyone greeted the infamous mr groves. I heard heavy footsteps pass the printing room, they were headed towards my boss.

I quickly brewed the coffee and made a tray to take to the office. I could hear mr Benjamin laughing from the other end of the room. He behaved like mr groves and him were the best of friends. I knocked on his door then let myself in his office.

"Ah thank you, just leave the coffee on the side board. You can go back to work" his voice was cold, he had never spoken to me like that before. I realised that maybe that was how he spoke to the other employees, the employees he didn't know. I didn't let myself wallow, I sat back at my desk and did my work quietly.

The whole floor was silent, I had never seen it like this. It was eerie, I didn't like it. Even babs the bubbly artist was silent, I didn't realise she could go two minutes without speaking.

After a long hour I finally heard the chairs scraping across the floor in the office. I could hear my boss and mr groves walking out of the office.

"So you have a new secretary you say" I heard mr groves ask.

"Yes, let me introduce you" mr Benjamin said as he stopped in front of my desk.

"This is mr groves, he owns the company" he said pointing to the man who I couldn't yet see.

"And Greg this is my secretary Taylor" I caught sight of him before I heard his name. A lump the size of a testicle , the size of gregs testicle to be exact was stuck in my throat. Why was I thinking about testicles and why gregs in particular, I was panicking. I couldn't speak, I just sat their staring. I finally stood but I was still just staring in shock. I was still thinking of his testicles, maybe I was obsessed. Maybe it was the fact that I had touched his naked body only days before. The flashbacks were coming back thick and fast, I could feel my underwear moisten.

Greg looked as shocked as I did, he made no motion to move either. He just didn't move, I don't think he blinked.  We had been stood there looking like statues for ten seconds, 9 seconds too long. I had to move, I stick my hand out to him.

"Pleasure to meet you mr groves" I said sweetly.

Greg snapped out of it and shook my hand "the pleasures mine"

Was that just me or did he just wink at me. I was dumbfounded.

"Taylor would you escort mr groves to the elevator please. He's a busy man" Mr Benjamin called.

I simply nodded in response and marched to the elevator, I didn't even check to see if he was following me. When at the elevators I found him stood dangerously close to me.  I could feel his hot breath on my neck, our night of hot passion came back to me and almost knocked me off my feet.

"So you work for me" he whispered. I found myself watching his lips as he spoke. I tried to act like I  went affected by him but I was. I don't think I have ever been stunned to silence before.

"It looks like it, I didn't know you were my boss . We never discussed work or anything for that matter, I can't believe this" my voice was barely a whisper. A feather could have knocked me down I was so shocked.

"I'm sorry I wasn't there when you woke up, I had a meeting"

I looked at him in surprise, I hadn't expected him to bring that up. The morning I had woken in his bed I had found it empty other than note that said thanks for showing him the true Paris. He had left no number or even an explanation for his departure, I had felt disappointed but it hadn't been a big deal.

"Let's not go into that, its best to act like it never happened. I've forgotten already" I lied, I hoped he would not see through me.

"Was i that forgettable, you certainly weren't" he whispered sending shivers through me. At this rate my panties would be soaked.

"Where's this damn elevator" I said quietly.

He smirked at me, he liked seeing me squirm. The bastard.

The elevator came and I pushed him inside. I had been in such a hurry I hadn't noticed that the material of my floaty shirt had gotten stuck between the metal doors that is until I ripped off me leaving me in just black trousers and a hot pink bra.

The elevator doors opened to reveal a surprised Greg starting at me in delight, my top was in his grasp.

"If you wanted me out of my top you could have just asked" I snapped as I took the shredded material from his hand. Thank fuck I had a jumper in my car.
