Aubrey's Playground

:56:

"I figured you could use a little pick-me-up?" Lori said after knocking and poking her head into Aubrey's office.

"How'd you know I was still here?" He looked up from a set of papers in his hand and smiled.

Lori smiled. "A little birdie told me."

"Would her name end in Nessa?" He replied with a smirk.

"Yeah, she showed me your book." Lori said with a smile.

Aubrey shook his head and laughed. "Get in here."

Lori pushed passed the door closing it behind her she placed the bag of Italian food on a table that sat in the center of a seating area before you got to his desk. Aubrey pushed himself from his desk and joined her in the circular common area. He plopped himself down on the couch and let out a sigh of comfort booth arms raised and rested on the top of the couches edge, his legs bent shoulder length apart and his resting back as he looked up at the tall ceiling of his office. Lori looked at him from across the table as she sat in a single cushioned chair, her legs tossed over the leg of the chair as she leaned back.

"Would you like food?" Lori asked.

Aubrey shook his head. "Nah, not right now."

Lori nodded. "So what project is keeping you from me tonight."

Aubrey smiled at her then but at his bottom lip. "One of my brothers has the idea to get into the weed industry and I think it's a good idea."

Lori's eyebrows rose, her mouth turned downward seeming to be impressed as she nodded her head. "That easy huh, so you're the rich brother that makes everything happen.

"I'm the rich brother that brings all his other brothers along with him, that's it."

"Impressive." Lori said smiling.

"I was going to send you the information tomorrow, anyway. Best you know now." He said. Lori nodded again.

"I've never seen you smoke." Lori replied as she thought to herself.

"Doesn't mean I don't do it." Aubrey replied with a smirk. "You don't see me do a lot of things." Lori frowned then scrunched up her face as she looked at him, he continued to smirk at her.

"We should smoke!" She finally let out.

"I've never seen you smoke." Aubrey mocked her.

Lori laughed. "Doesn't mean I've never done it!" She said winking at him.

"You know what?..." Aubrey said as he began to stand up.   He pulled at the tie around his neck until it hung low on his chest then completely took it off, he unbuttoned the top three button on his dress shirt, he walked around the table and stood in front of Lori he leaned forward and pecked at her lips in which she returned the action. "I'll indulge you!" He said before walking away towards his desk. Lori watched as he un-cuffed the sleeves of his shirt and folded them up, walking smoothly across the room, Lori chewed at the inside of her cheek as she looked at the back of his body, she watched as she picked up the phone on his desk holding it to his ear. "Hey, it's Aubrey. I'm still in my office, let Cora know she doesn't need to have it cleaned tonight. Thanks." He said firmly then hung up the phone. He reached over and pulled out a medium shiny black box from a drawer and walked back around his desk, he plopped back in his spot and leaned forward as he sat the box on the table, he opened it and pulled a pre-rolled blunt from it.

"You're a very spoiled man." Lori playfully said.

Aubrey smiled. "I'm a very smart man. I work smarter not harder. You pre-roll all at once that way you can grab and go." He said as he pointed the blunt at her.
