I am the boss - English version

Chapter 15: Thai food

Oh my goooosh!

This is completely awkward and it feels totally uncomfortable.

Everyone sees us with their amazement faces and some girls gather in pairs to whisper, obviously they are talking about us, if not what else.

I turned to see James with, I guess horror face, because he stops and says out loud.

-Let's see everyone, please come here.

What is he doing?

What the heck!

-Before something happens or the rumors start, I want to tell you all something very important.

All the laboratory staff are in a semi-circle in front of us now, watching us with critical faces, some of doubt, others confusion, and lots of disbelief.

-Layla and I just came from the human resources office, we just signed the relationship forms.

A sound of exclamation and of surprise is heard among the staff.

When they are silent again, James continues talking 

-Layla and I met yesterday at the induction and from the first moment I saw her, I fell in love.

An awwww comes out of the mouth of some of the girls, while others make an annoyance sound, as if lamenting that it happened with me and not with them, I am sorry girls, so it happens when it happens, what are we going to do with it?

-I want to clarify that we did not know each other, yesterday was the first time we saw each other, and today due to an incident, which does not concern any of you, we went out to eat and I could no longer avoid it, I declared myself and apparently, she is crazy enough too, since she accepted.

Laughter is heard among the majority and the atmosphere feels a bit lighter and more soothed.

-So, please, I ask you, let's be professionals, let's not start rumors and gossips, you know how our boss takes them, it just happened, and here we are. Are we clear?

Everyone smiles and nods their heads, I can see how James is an excellent manager, wow, I am feeling so proud to see him in action, and he is all mine.

-Ok, we are done with the ads for today, all to your places. Thank you.

Most people go to their workstations, but a few, mostly men, come to congratulate us, they shake hands with James and also come to congratulate me.

When everyone is leaving, James turns to see me, and I will melt right here and right now.

-Thank you Jim, that was, wow, I have no words to describe how you make me feel, I think I don't deserve you.

-Shut up, I am the one who does not deserve you, look at you, you are such a beautiful doll, well, that doll is a saying.

- What?

- Well, yes, you have a killer body my love

- Shut up, what a shameless individual you came out to be

He starts laughing trying not to make it so strong since everyone has gone back to work.

- I like you sweetheart

- And I like you baby

- Hmm I love when you call me like this, come, come to my office or I am going to grab your beautiful face and eat you, and then we will be in so much trouble

We walk into his office, he asks me to sit on one of the chairs in front of his desk while he looks for something in the furniture that is on that side of his desk, in the file cabinet type of furniture.

He pulls out a large folder with metal rings and he tells me

- Let's see Miss Miller, let's start with your lab procedure training.

I can't help it and I laugh, he looks so cute in his role as manager.

- Shut up woman, you will make me lose my composure, I am making a great effort not to hold you and kiss you right here.

- Ok Mr. Moore, tell me, I am all ears, let’s hear it.

-That's my girl.

And with that we started to review all the most important procedures that they follow to work on the lab, and he explained to me all the organization and logistics of the R&D laboratory, everything is perfectly structured, it is amazing how they have everything perfectly established, there is nothing that is not perfectly regulated and standardized.

Wow, awesome job James.

In the blink of an eye it was  five o’clock, and we realized because people started knocking on James' office the glass door to say goodbye, apparently that is also part of the culture of this fantastic place, not only excellence is part of everyone’s culture, but respect for people's lives, they all leave at their respective departure times, always.

- It's about time, my love, are we leaving?

James tells me and I remember again that this beautiful specimen is my boyfriend from today's meal.

- Yes, let's go sweetheart

- Oh wow, that sounded wonderful, I like that, that is how I want you to call me

-Hahahaha, how? Sweetie?

- Ooooh yeeees, you make me feel tickles when calling me sweet names

- Hahahaha that's very sexy my love

- Och Layla, don't tell me like that, you are going to drive me crazy, and I don't know if I can put up with it for long

- For long?

- Yes, to hold the hunger to undress and kiss you all

- Jaaaaaaames

- You see, I know, it is a lot and very soon, it is crazy, so don't tempt me

- Hahahaha, now I am the one tempting you?

- Obviously not, you are an angel fallen from heaven, just to make me happy

- Awww papacito, you make me blush my love

- Let’s go, we need to leave, we are the only people still here.

He puts a post it on the procedure we were working on, he closes the folder, puts it in a drawer of his desk, he takes everything that is on the desk and put them away in some specific drawers, turns off his computer and we leave his office, he takes out some keys from his pants and locks his office.

- Ah, my jacket is in my workstation

- Ah of course, you left it before the lunch break, something else?

- No Jim, here I have my purse and phone with me

- Ok, let’s go then

We went for my jacket and walked to the elevator.

As we were waiting for the elevator, James suddenly pushes me against the wall and places his hands against the wall, one on each side of my head, he bends down over me and starts kissing me.

I am surprised but I reciprocate his kiss, I love how he kisses me, not that I had had much experience, only an ex and he was, mmm, nobody, he never has kissed me before, at least he never kissed me like that.

James' kiss is passionate, but at the same time tender, soft, moist, his lips are soft and warm, his tongue that enters my mouth makes me shudder, his lips seal perfectly with mine and I feel like a suction or an emptiness that steals my breath.

Suddenly he is not only kissing me, but his hands hug me and caress my back, his huge hands, caress me carefully and gently, although he hugs me and pulls me against his body, I feel that he squeezes me, against him, but everything feels very pleasant.

The ding of the elevator is heard but we do not stop, James continues to kiss me and caress me and suddenly breaks apart from my lips and with his hoarse and choppy voice tells me

- Oh baby, let's go or I am going to eat you my love, right here

I laugh, I feel a bit shy and I nod my head.

He lifts my face with his index finger and tells me

- I am sorry honey, I don't want to disrespect you, but-

- You didn’t, don’t worry Jim

-I don't know, I feel that this may seem too fast and too much for you, I don't want to pressure you or do something that makes you uncomfortable

- The uncomfortable thing is, that everything you do to me I like it so much

- Layla, don't tell me that, because if you get distracted I will I tear off that blouse of you

- Jaaaaames

- I know, I know, I am a shameless individual

-Yes, and apparently, I am another

- Why do you say that?

- Because right now I just want you to do that

- What my love?

- To tear off my blouse

- Oh my!

- I know, that is not from a lady

- No my love, it's not that, that has made me-

He stops talking but as we are against each other’s body, I feel what my words have done to him.

I feel something huge and hard against the lower part of my stomach, holy cow, I am feeling aroused, we must stop this, right now.

- James, if we don't stop at this very moment, I don't want to know what will happen

- Give me a second my love to recompose myself and to be able to walk

We both let out a laugh that feeds each other's laughter.

Despite the situation that must be so uncomfortable and maybe embarrassing for James because of his obvious erection, we still laugh and I feel totally comfortable with him, I do not feel harassed or uncomfortable at all, that is so crazy.

- You let me know love, I wait for you as long as you need

- Oh sweetheart, what a shame, I am afraid of what you are going to think of me after this

- To be honest, hat flatters me, that you get like this for me

- Layla, stop telling me those things, you're going to make me go crazy

- I am sorry baby, but as strange as it sounds, it is the first time in my life that despite this being so, so intense and sexy, I do not feel uncomfortable or harassed

- THANK HEAVENS!

- Hahahaha don't worry, you don't scare me, you make me feel cute and desired

- Oops, you don't know how desired you are at this exact moment

- James, I would give you another kiss my love, but-

- But what?

- I would feel more aroused

OMG! 

How am I talking about this with him?

I am talking like it is nothing, I am shameless too, apparently.

- Sweety, do you want to go to my house for dinner?

- James, do you think it's appropriate?

- Why wouldn't it be appropriate? Do you think I can't control myself?

- I don't doubt you, I doubt I can't control myself.

- Do you want us to go to dinner somewhere?

- If I'm soooo honest, no, going to your house sounds perfect, but-

- I know, I know, so let's go to dinner somewhere, what do you want for dinner?

He extends his arm and presses the elevator button again, as it came and went again, as we were quite busy a few moments ago.

- I know a very good place.

- Very well my love, we can go now, I think that I am able to walk now

- Oh Jim, I have never talked about this so naturally with anyone

- That makes the two of us, if this had happened to me with anyone else, I would have left the city, but you make me feel, mm, I do not know if the word comfortable contains what this feels like

-I understand you my love, I feel the same exact way

'Ding'

- Let's go honey

He grabs me by the waist, and we go into the elevator.

I want to kiss him again, but getting to the lobby could be a problem for him if we keep kissing, control yourself woman!

- What do you think sweetheart?

- I think I don't want to tell you Jim

-Let me guess baby, to kiss me and in the lobby

- Sorcerer!

- Hahaha no, I'm not, I am just thinking about the same thing

- When do you think it is considered appropriate for us to have dinner at your house?

- Oh my gosh

-Seriously, it is a real question Jim

- It is completely appropriate that you go at the time you want to go, you are completely welcome there my love

- Oh Jim, I think you already made me go crazy, I can only think of seeing you shirtless

- Oh baby, my love, I better not tell you how I want to see you, I do not want you to break up with me and run away scared of me

- Jim, what are we going to do? I don't think I can work with you tomorrow

- Oh f uck, I hadn't thought about tomorrow my love

- What if we go to your house and get this out of our minds at once?

- Wow, babyy, as much as that sounds like the most wonderful thing to do, do you think it's the right thing to do today?

- You just said that I am welcome in your house whenever I want to go

- I know, buuuut, oh lord, I think I am an i***t, I should just shut up, carry you and get you on my shoulders and to start running to my house

- Jiiiim

- F uck, what do you think if we go to dinner, we walk a little after dinner to do digestion and if after walking you still want to go to my house, I promise to worship you in my house as much as you allow me to do it

- It seems that we have a plan

Suddenly I realize that we are on the street, walking holding hands and Jim raises his right hand to a passing taxi.

When did we get out of the elevator and walk through the lobby?

- Get in sweetheart

James tells me when the taxi stopped, and he opens the door for me to get inside the car

- Where?

The taxi driver asks us, James turns to see me with mischievous eyes.

- Second Avenue and eighty-three, please.

I tell the driver and James questions me with his eyes.

- I hope that you like Thai food, but if you don’t, there are several very good restaurants close that Thai restaurant we are heading to

- Whatever you want my love

- Hey no, you are going to spoil me, and then you are not going to love me anymore when I am so spoiled and act like a brat

- I will always love you honey

I see him straight to his beautiful eyes and I feel like some tears want to betray me, and go down my face, I snuggle up against his chest and he immediately hugs me, it is the most beautiful feeling in the entire world, feeling safe and protected by this wonderful man, I think I don't deserve him, I just won the lottery when I found him.

- Why are we going to that specific place my love?

- Oh, I live a few blocks from there Jim, so I know the restaurants around that area pretty well, so I thought about it and if you didn’t like it, I know other places.
