six.

Emily reached for my waist, pulling me closer to her. My lips tugging on hers and hers tugging even harder. I wanted this all day— and surprisingly she did too. Her hand traveled to my lower back, resting on my ass, lifting my skirt a little. I moaned into the kiss, giving her tongue access to my mouth. "Emily" I moan into the kiss, "I didn't know you wanted this.." I complete my sentence, still moaning. "Claire, maybe don't talk when I'm about to make your eyes roll to the back of your head" She says. Those words just make me hot.. I pull back from the kiss, examining her hungry eyes. "Maybe we should take this to your place" I suggest. She nods and grabs my hand out of the bathroom and we head to her place.

...

Not even a second into her apartment, Emily smashes her lips against mine. Feeling my stomach tingle and her hands gripping my waist tightly. Moving my head to the side against the wall to give her more access, her lips start sucking on my neck. I grabbed her neck pulling her lips back to mine. My stomach started tensing up even more. My hands fumble down to the buttons of my shirt trying to quickly undo them as I keep my lips attached to hers. Her hands meet mine and she helps me undo my shirt. I quickly take the shirt off and wrap my almost naked torso around her neck again. Her hands meeting my waist digging her nails into my skin. Her hands going around my back trying to unclasp my bra, I open my eyes staring into her dark brown eyes. She looks me back in the eyes and gives me a small smirk. Gosh the things she could do to me... My mind snaps back when she starts toying with my bra strings.

What am I doing? About to sleep with a co-worker? I step back, my back meeting the cold wall. I place a hand on Emily's chest. Her eyes finally meet mine again. "Emily.." I say softly. "What?" She says back. Leaning down to grab my unbuttoned shirt on her floor, "This is.." I say, "What? Not okay?" She asks, stepping back from me. "I'm sorry, I must've gave the wrong impression. My heart was telling me differently than my mind and-" She cuts in to say, "Oh." Her voice low. She looked heart broken. Sad. "You're my co-worker! I don't want things to be weird with us" I finally say. She nods and I open the door grabbing my shoes and purse. Shutting the door behind me I run down her apartment steps and walk to my house. It wasn't far— maybe 10 minute walk.

...

Putting my hair into a messy bun for the night my mind always wanders to Emily's lips. I try to focus on something else, but I can't. Her lips on mine is all I wanted. "UGH" I groaned. I layed back on my bed staring at my ceiling. I started thinking about how I should've not done that. I didn't even ask how she felt. I reached for my phone and dialed her number. As the phone rang my heart started pounding, like it was going to explode.
"Hello?" I heard the other line say. "Hey! Hey it's me, Claire. Look I want to say I'm sorry, and that I should've not done that. Let's grab some lunch and talk tomorrow?" My hands were trembling as I said that. "Sure. 12:30 is good for me" She says. "Great" I say. She quickly ended the call. God I was so stupid.
