It's Me And Not You

30

Dan's POV

"I missed you too." Rachel responds.

I try pulling her for another kiss.But she pushes me away.

"Lets eat before the food gets cold."  I growl.

Rachel takes out the food from the bag and she gives me my box. I am so happy that she came to visit me.

"I am happy that you are here." She nods her head as she is chewing and she blushes.

"Why don't you allow Jason to date Monica?I think they will make a great couple."

"I am not refusing. But Jason is the one that is afraid of making a move on her."

"Cocky Jason, no ways. "

"Believe me it hard for us man to approach women like Monica. The women that are career focused are not easily approachable. I know that from experience." 

"Why don't you help your friend?"

"No ways I am not setting up Monica with Jason. Her father will murder me. He is a detective."

"Is that why you didn't ask Monica out ?"

I think she is jealous.

"No that is not the reason. I was never attracted to her. She is not my type. I have a strict policy as well, I don't date the staff."

"I don't mix business with pleasure." I add. She sighs and seems satisfied with my response.

"Jason comes to my office more often just to see her. But he needs to grow some balls and ask her out himself. I will not help him. He should get burned in the fire as well."

"What fire?" Rachel feigns innocence.

"You know exactly what I am talking about Miss Smith." She gave me a hard time when I was still pursuing her.

"Thank you for the lunch Miss Smith. It was lovely though I am not sure about the company ." I tease her.

She clears the table and throws everything in the bin. She is wearing the pencil skirt she wore the first night we met.

"Nice skirt." I say whilst I am running my fingers across my lips.  I want to make out with her here in my office but I don't think that is a good idea.

The last time we made out whilst watching that horrible show in her flat. I ended up with a boner and she just fell asleep in my arms. 

I could n't do anything, I knew that night that my self control is gone. The next time we make out, I will not be able to hold myself.

"What are you thinking?" Rachel asks me whilst she is sitting on my lap.

"Do you have to go back to the office?" I check the time on my watch, 3:00pm.

"Nope, flexible hours Danny boy." 

Great we can go to my apartment then. Besides, I want to get out of here before Joe sees Rachel and me.

I have not told him about us.I am scared.

 I know he loves Rachel's mom and he will be proposing soon. 

He has already bought the ring. He told me that he is waiting for the right time and he wanted to ask Carol's kids for permission first.

I am very happy for him that he found love after his wife died. 

Unfortunately this situation meant that he is potentially my future father in law. 

I know he will not be happy for me dating his daughter as he knows my reputation with women. I need to tell him soon before this blows up in my face.

"Do we have to go back to your apartment to get your stuff for the weekend?"

"Packed already." Oh, I am not the only one looking forward to this weekend.

"You are very eager,Miss Smith."

"You have no idea." I know that look she is giving and for my sake.We need to get out of this office.

When we leave my office. I notice that my secretary is not at her desk. I wanted to let her know that I am heading home. Just in case someone is looking for me.

We get into the lift and I feel that pull of electricity between myself and Rachel. The sexual frustration is unbearable.

I just hold her hand and play with her knuckles. She is breathing heavily and I am loosing an internal battle with myself. 

Before I could take her in the lift. The doors open and we have reached the lobby.

"Rachel hold on a second, I just want to leave a message with the security."

As I am approaching him, he looks nervous. Wierd?

"Jono, can you tell my secretary that I am leaving for the day. She was n't at her desk."

"Yes sir." He responds. 

"Miss Smith." He nods and smiles at Rachel.

"Goodbye Jono, see you next time." Rachel responds.

I clench my jaws and I give the guard the evil look. He does n't notice me as he was busy picking up the phone. Rachel notices my reaction but she does not seem phased. 

What is going on here? Am I missing something?

"Dan slow down." I notice that I am going fast almost passing the allowed speed limit. Rachel is in my car  and we are heading to my apartment. I asked John to drive Rachel's car and he is behind us.

"Why are sulking ?"

"You have not said anything to me since we got into the car." She adds.

"What I am I suppose to do when my girlfriend is flirting with my staff. Right in front of me."

Rachel looks genuinely confused. That calms me a bit. It means, it is one sided than. I will have to chat with Jono and make sure he stays away from my Rachel. 

I should just fire him.

"What are you talking about Dan?"

"Jono" I respond.

Rachel laughs so hard and I can see tears rolling down her cheeks. I feel ridiculous now.

"I was not flirting with him. We met earlier when I came to the office. I was  just being polite to him. He is a nice guy and is very good at his job."

I sigh. Rachel likes me, I have nothing to worry about. I should  control my temper.

"Your jealousy is out of control. I think the sexual frustration is making you loose your mind Dan." Rachel flirts with me and she touches my leg.

"I have not gotten laid in a while Rachel."

"Whose fault is that?"

She asks as we enter my complex parking lot. She is right, I am punishing myself for no reason.
