50 Layers of Jonas

50 Layers of Jonas: Chapter 9

After our little romp in his office he kissed my lips, tapped my backside and shooed me off to my desk. I giggled and went back to work. About 3 Nick’s brother Joe came in, jerking me from my day dreams.

“Miss... is my brother available?” he asked.

“Umm, one moment sir, let me check...” I said. I got on my phone and intercommed into him.

‘Mr. Jonas, your brother is here....” I said.

“Send him in..” he answered.

“Go ahead sir....” I smiled.

“So.. you’re uh... his secretary huh?” Joe asked, sitting on the corner of my desk.

“Uh, yes sir....” I said.

“How about you and me getting a cup of coffee?” he asked.

“No thank you, I’m in a relationship....” I said.

“Oh... huh.. lucky  guy...” he said.

“Indeed,” Nick said, from his office door. Nick came over to me and as I stood to greet him he kissed my cheek, and placed his hand on my waist.

“Miss Kingsbury, can you order some lunch f or my brother and I? we have lots to discuss....” he said.

“Of course sir...” I said, as Joe looked slightly sheepish at the realization that I was Nick’s girl...

“Joseph, this way,” Nick said, holding his office door open.

“Dude... I am so sorry.. I had NO idea....” he stuttered as he followed my boyfriend into his office. Nick paused to smirk at me for just a moment. I smiled gently and got back to work.

“You got no class Joseph..” he said, as he shut his office door. I could hear the heated conversation as I ordered lunch from Nicholas’ favorite restaurant.  When food arrived I knocked and took it in to find Nick sitting on his desk in front of Joe, looking furious.

“You need to learn some respect Joseph....” Nick snarled.

“Bro, look, if I had known she was YOUR girl, there is no way I would have hit on her and you know it.....” Joe insisted.

“Yes, well I think you owe Miss Kingsbury here an apology...” Nick said, as I got their lunch set up.

“Oh, sir, that’s not---” I started, but he threw me a firm look.

“I’m sorry,” Joe said, softly.

“Apology accepted,” I said, before curtsying a little, then leaving the room. I had never seen Nick so upset.....After about another hour Joe left and I got an email.

And that was the end of it. I was slightly worried about what solution he meant, and what kind of discussion this would be. Would I get my two cents n or is it one of those be quiet and listen while I talk conversations.... Work seemed to drag on, my worries plaguing me.. was i in trouble.. was this gonna end well? was i gonna end up smacking his pretty little face for being smart with me? So when he came out of his office, he pulled me gently into his.

“We need to rectify this problem of other men hitting on  you....” he said. I chuckled. he was jealous.. that’s what this was.. how adorable.

“You’re laughing?” he asked, raising a brow.

“Ummm yes sir, I’m sorry, I just... you’re jealous and it’s slightly amusing,” I said.

“Amusing? First of all NOT jealous, possessive of my belongings.....” he said, ‘SECOND THIS is serious, and it’s not funny at all....”

“Belongings? I’m  your girlfriend, not just a book that belongs to you or a toy that a child protects....” I argued.

“You’re more like a precious diamond that I wish I could lock away in a safe and keep all to myself, but because I can’t, I feel the need to claim it.. give you something to prove that you have a man.. an owner so to speak...” he said. I folded my arms.

Mr yummy pants is straddling the fence between sweet and ignorant... my inner kitten hissed.

I agree I thought to myself.

“Owner? You’re digging yourself a bigger hole Nicholas,” I snarled angrily.

“Look, when I’m in a relationship I am committed and I want other men to know that you’re my girl... MY heart and soul,  not theirs....” he said. I sighed. Okay.. that sounded a little better.

“So how do we do that?” I asked.

“Get you a ring..... not like a wedding ring or anything like that. A promise type ring..... something to wear on your left hand that says MINE stay away!” he said. I smirked a bit and nodded.

“Do I get to pick out this promise ring?” I asked. He nodded.

“Yes... and we’ll order one.. so it contains a GPS chip, that way I always know where you are....” he said.

“GPS?” I asked, raising a brow. He nodded.

“Yes, I’d like to keep track and I was thinking, maybe you should start keeping an activities journal, of your daily events.... i’d like to know how your day went, how things were.

“You could.. oh I dunno.. ASK!’ I said.

“I could, but this is so much easier, and with my schedule, who knows when I’d have time....” he said.

“Uh huh... and what else do you think we should be doing?” I asked, arms folded over my chest.

“WE... oh no.. just you... I am the most scheduled person on the planet... you have my date book, that’s the best journal you could have of my day....” he said, gesturing to his office door.

“Nick, I understand wanting to be organized and wanting to protect me.. but this is bordering on control...” I said, firmly. He looked at me, for just a moment, before his eyes narrowed.

“Control?” he asked, his eyes black as night.

“I’m sorry, did I stutter?” I challenged.

“I only wish to protect you.. my life has always been a certain way.. and every aspect of my life is the way I want it.. I don’t know any other way...” he said. I smiled and went over to him to place myself into his lap.

“Then let me teach you...” I said, before gently kissing his lips.

“I don’t know what it is about you Jennifer, but you make me want to be everything I’m not...” he whispered, kissing back.
