"Can I kiss you?" Rowan asked while rubbing small circles on her cheek. "Yes." She nodded. He slowly circled her waist with his arm and pulled her close. He leaned in and when their lips touched it felt heavenly. Really glorious. She tasted very sweet.

He kissed her hard and slow as he sucked on her tongue. She tugged at the ends of his hair and he groaned lowly as he pulled her more into his chest.

As they came apart to regain their breaths he laid his head on hers. He kissed her again and looked straight into her eyes. "Will you be my girlfriend?" He whispered.

Her heart was beating wildly in her chest. She had feelings for him and his actions had spoken many times without number. He'd been there for her. "What do you think?" "I don't think. I know you want to be with me." He smirked. She stood on her tippy toes and kissed him long and slow. "Goodnight boyfriend." She closed the door. He leaned on it making sure he'd heard correctly and made his way to his car with a megawatt smile on his face.

She sat through the meeting as she listened to the new idea being proposed. Her phone suddenly buzzed and she looked at the message. 'Hey babe, let's play a game.'
'I'm in a meeting.'
'But you're texting me, love.'
'A,E,O,U. What's missing.'
'I.'
'What is the opposite of hate?'
'Love.'
'Opposite of me?'
'You.'
'I love you too babe.' He said. He'd tricked her but she loved it as her face broke into a smile.

They looked at her as if she was from a different planet. Their boss rarely smiled. But she did now and she had beautiful smile. They were shocked as they stared at. "Are you sick? Proceed." "Yes boss." She was back.

"Hey girlfriend." "Hey boyfriend." Rowan strode to her and deeply kissed her in the lobby as the employees craned their necks to see this fine specimen. "Remember our plans for tonight?" He said as he led her out of the company.

As he dropped her off he shouted after her, "I'll pick you up at five. Love you." She went inside. She couldn't explain how quickly it had happened but it all started with that date, a stolen kiss, him picking her up from work and boom the earth shattering kiss after their fifth date when he popped the question.

"I'm sure for my rude outburst the other time. I should have listened to your argument instead of brushing you off and insulting you." Mr. Ferguson said pathetically.

"Well Mr. Ferguson. You did not insult me. You insulted yourself. These are not the medieval times where men dominated with their foolish rules. The damage was done, it was fixed so it doesn't matter. Just use your brain next time." Sophia said.

"Watch your tongue young lady. I'm old enough to be your father." He said. Sophia scoffed.

"Mr. Ferguson, don't forget even foolish people grow old too. Now if we're done for the day I have some engagements to be in. You're dismissed." Sophia finished. "The Grand opening is due and we're required to be there early enough." "Will do."

"I will be there on the day of the opening. I have some matters to attend to." Rowan interjected and she looked at him. Why wasn't she informed of this before hand but Rowan looked anywhere but her.

"Rachel, tell me this. Why is your brother ignoring me?" "How am I supposed to know, you his woman." Rachel looked away and she knew something was off. "Boss, you have a visitor." If Nancy had not interrupted she would have called out on her fat lie. "Send them in." And Rachel used that as an opportunity to get away.

A blonde and very tall woman entered her office. She was 6'8. "My my, didn't you were my replacement. I must admit you are very beautiful. Just not his type. He doesn't go for cold women. You wouldn't know how to satisfy him."

"And you are?" "Oh, pardon my manners. I'm Lorraina Prior, Rowan's first and only love. Nice to meet you." Sophia forced a smile on her face.
