Chapter 17 Stare

"Damn is there anything you're not good at?" Killian sighed, as Regina got back up from her knees. Regina grinned at him, "Mm plenty of things I'm not good at," she shrugged. "Ok giving that... is not one," he smiled.

They slept after having a little dinner, and slept peacefully through the night with their legs wrapped together as if they were shoelaces.

Killian got up first, and made coffee and a protein shake for both of them. "Oh what's this?" Regina smiled at the brown liquid. "Ok it isn't gross like it looks," he said.
"It's Greek yogurt, peanut butter, banana, and almond milk," he said. Regina couldn't help but lick her lip.
He handed her a glass of it. "Wow, ok I need this everyday," she swallowed the delicious healthy concoction. "Yeah? It looks awful but it's obviously delicious," he smiled.

"Great need my strength to whoop your ass," Regina teased. "Is that so?" He scoffed playfully at her. "Yeah I'm pretty quick, plus I'll distract you in my little booty shorts," she turned and pushed her behind out towards him.
With a sexy grin and eyebrow dance, he tilted his head towards it, and pat her ass with his hand. "That May be the case," he smiled, knowing that he would probably be distracted a bit by her body.

They had coffee, finished their protein shakes, grabbed waters and headed for the gym.

Killian's POV- Damn she is so cute in those little shorts. Her body is so tight and sexy. God damn.

Regina's POV- I knew very well he was just staring at my butt as we got to the gym and into the little boxed racquetball room. I was pretty agile, so I figured I could at least give him a little workout keeping up.

Regina bent down a bit, Killian bounced the ball once, and looked at her, "You Ready?" He nodded.
"I was born ready baby, let's go," Regina said confidently with a little wink back at him.

He started and Regina was quick to recover the ball after its first wall bounce to her. He was quick to move as well.

Regina's POV- ok but damn he's sexy with that racquet and his hand and arm muscles and the whole damn thing. He has such a cute ass too.

They both were quite athletic and had it back and forth for a good ten minutes, breaking a sweat on each of their brows.

"Damn woman, you really can do anything," he smiled and pat her back. "Come on, care to make it interesting?" She asked.
"Oh you want to bet? That's not wise love," he smirked.
"Why not?" Regina whined. "Cause then I'll win, and I'll feel bad if I beat you," he said. "What? That's silly, come on," Regina said.
"Ok fine but don't think I'll go easy on you," he said. "I would be angry if you did," Regina sassed.

"Ok, what are we betting? Money? Cooking? Dates? Sex?" He asked. "All of it, whoever wins picks everything for the next weekend together," she said. "Wow you're brave," he mused at her. "I just know I can win," she smiled proudly at him.

Putting up quite the fight, Regina kept up and even with him through the whole time. The final serve would decide who won. They both were pretty sweaty now, but Regina still could tough it out.

"Yes!!" Regina cheered for herself, beating him successfully. He breathed a bit catching his breath, "Ow," he whined grabbing his hamstring.
"What's wrong?" Regina instantly changed and went to him as he sat down. "oh that smarts ow," he cringed, and she gently tried to touch his leg. "Is it a cramp?" She gently rubbed his leg.
Taken by surprise, Killian grabbed her face, kissing her hard, with the damp sweat on their heads. She moaned in delight against his kiss.

"So you're fine?" Regina asked, "no I still got a cramp, but nice win sexy," he smiled at her.

Regina's POV- Aww he's a good sport

"You ok?" Regina asked as he stood up, "Yeah gave me a good run for my game there, need more water," he put his arm around her.

It was such a lovely weekend, Regina grinned at him as he got up first Monday morning. He let her sleep in a bit, and left coffee for her next to the bed stand as he was dressing.
She smelled the brew and woke up, seeing him buttoning his shirt.
"Hey," she smiled. "Hey you, coffee there for you, and I gotta head out for a bloody 8 am meeting," he leaned down to her kissing her mouth.

"Mmm, I'll see you at 9 then?" She asked, as he kissed her once more. "Yeah, just pull the door good when you leave baby," he smiled, and kissed her again before he headed out.

Regina got herself ready for the day in her new little outfit he got her Friday, and she headed to work. She was grinning away as the barista gave her her latte, "Well Hey," Ruby came behind her, "Hey," Regina sighed.
"Someone have a good weekend? Or two of you I presume?" She asked.
"Yeah we did, we spent the whole time together to this morning," Regina said.

"Wow, seems getting serious for sure," Ruby nudged her cutely.

They got into the office and Killian had his early meeting going on in the conference room. Regina waved softly at him when he saw her as she went towards her desk.

As the meeting came to an end, Killian saw the attendees out. Regina looked up seeing a woman shake his hand, and tilting her head a certain way at him.

Regina's POV- is she flirting with him? Ok calm down Regina, she's clearly a client or something. Killian put his hand on the door as she headed out, but what got to me was his smile and head tilt to her, and then he brushed her back with his hand. What on earth?

The normal Monday meeting got going and Regina somewhat avoided Killian's eyes when she went into the room, sitting down silently.

Killian's POV- Hmm what's that about? I wonder if something happened.

The meeting got going and Killian started assigning things. "Regina give me sports and medicine this week please, pretty sure you can handle that," he smiled.

"Sure, boss," she said in a monotone at him. Ruby and Tiana were also confused.

"Ok that's all," Killian ended the meeting, and everyone shuffled out.
He stopped Regina of course, "what's wrong?" He asked.
"Nothing I'm going to work," she said flatly. "What's wrong with you? Did something happen?" He asked.

"No, just you staring at the suited woman and touching her back, with a smile on your face," Regina blurted out.

Killian widened his eyes, "who do you mean? My morning meeting?" He asked. She stared at him, "oh someone is jealous and for really unnecessary reasons," he said, somewhat defensively. "Am I?" She snapped.

"Uhh yes you are," he said firmly, and now the office was looking at them, he moved her gently away from the door and shut it, standing in front of her with his back to the office so no one could see his face or hers.

"Regina that woman is a client," he said. "And you had to touch her?" Regina asked. "I didn't touch her in a suggestive way," he defended. "Are we fighting?" He asked. "What gave it away?" She snapped.

"Oh boy, Regina calm down, you're completely overreacting," he said. She huffed at him.

He opened the door to the office, "attention!" He called out, and everyone looked up. "How many of you women, have I gestured you out a doorway and I grazed your back with my hand?" He called out .

At least 20 women raised their hands including Ruby and Tiana. "How many of you did I touch in a suggestive way?" He asked and they all put their hands down. "How many of you have I ever flirted with?" He asked. No one again.

He bit his lip and stared at Regina with his eyebrows high, she sighed and stood there gaping at him.

"We ok now?" He asked quietly. "Umm, Yeah." She mumbled.

He texted her ten minutes later - "try something new darling it's called trust."

Regina's POV- I'm an idiot
