Impossible Love

8. Caught Staring

Jay’s POV

Spending time with Mira made it difficult for me. I wanted to tell her how she made me feel. I fell deeply in love with her. Although she had a boyfriend and I knew she was straight, it didn’t stop my heart. I was falling for her everything too. Those fitting dresses and skirts were working on me. You are making it hard for me, ain’t you now?

Today she was in this pretty fitting black dress. It fitted her curves perfectly. When she walked into our office, I was about to get out to go for a tea break since I didn’t take any in the morning. When I laid my eyes on her walking through the door, I froze in my seat. I couldn’t help but gasp. She is so f*****g sexy. I lost my senses because I was drooling.

Ally was amazed by my reaction. I didn’t even notice they were both staring at me. I was so lost in those perfect curves, the way that dress held every inch of that sexy body. Oh my God! I wonder how it feels to have her in my arms. I want to touch every inch of her.

Mira and Ally were staring at each other and back at me. It was Ally who decided to get my attention because girl I was daydreaming about her.

“Jay, what’s wrong with you?” Ally wore a smirk on her face. Damn it! They saw me literally undressing her.

“W…w..what?” I had lost my speech. Damn, I cursed silently. I looked at Mira and she was smiling secretly. s**t, she’s smart, she knows she had me on this.

“Did you see anything you like?” Ally was teasing me.

“Mind your business, Ally,” I snorted.

“The least you can do is compliment someone after you stare at them like that,” She said, winking at me. Damn you, Ally, damn you. I am in a hot seat right now. All through Mira was smiling at me secretly, she damn well knew Ally wouldn’t let this go.

“Says who? I wasn’t staring. I actually love the dress,” I said half-truthfully, knowing I didn’t have a chance out of this.

“Then I guess you love all her dresses she wears, the way you have been staring at her lately,” She finally said, opening her damn mouth. I hate you right now woman.

“Shut the f**k up Ally!” I was getting annoyed.

“Okay! Okay!” She raised her hands like she wanted to surrender.

Mira was just there smirking at me. I will get you pretty. You just wait and see. I knew she was teasing me with all that smiling she was doing.

Mira’s POV

Jay was about to get off her seat when I walked in, she was in their office with Ally. The look in her eyes when she saw me, and that gasp! Did I just hear that right? It was like she was frozen right there. She was staring at me, literally undressing me. This time she wasn’t hiding it at all, she was looking at me and she swallowed so hard.

Ally, who was glued to her phone, had heard the gasp too. She looked at Jay and followed her gaze. When she looked at me standing there unable to move, she whistled, staring at me for a few seconds, then she gathered herself. Okay, what is going on? It seems today people are going crazy. I guess she had also noticed the reactions too.

She was looking at Jay and back to me with a smirk on her face, it was like she was happy confirming something. When she realized Jay wasn’t getting out of it, she decided to interrupt whichever crazy thoughts were going on in Jay’s head because she looked like she was in dreamland.

Ally was in Jay’s case. They had a very weird conversation ever, and I was enjoying every bit of it. I was smirking at Jay every time I saw Ally wasn’t looking at me. Damn, I got her this once, and she knew I caught her. She was still checking me out discreetly. What’s wrong with her?

They had to finish their weird conversation which they were talking about me as if I wasn’t standing right there with them when Jay seemed to get pissed by her friend. These two are weird.

There was a moment of silence. I had to make them talk because they were behaving like little kids. I started joking about how stupid they look right now. After messing with them for a while, they finally started laughing. I hated it when they were sulking, I liked them all chatty.

I was playing a game on my phone when Jay approached and asked me to give her my phone. She would play that level for me. Honestly, she was a pro at this game. I gave her my phone, which she took and played with a little. I saw her get off the game, and she went to call and dialed what I guessed was her number.

Because she was seated by my side, I heard her phone vibrate. I confirmed my suspicion, she had just stolen my phone number. She could have just asked me, I couldn’t have refused to give it to her.

She saved her phone number in my phone and gave it back to me and whispered into my ear, “Just in case you need something from me, just give me a call.” She walked back to her desk and winked at me when she found me looking at her. Damn, she’s something.

I was blushing without even knowing it. Ally looked at us suspiciously. When she was about to say something, Jay warned her with a glare. I was smiling sheepishly at Ally. Jay had her rubbed around her fingers.

Before we left for home, Jay asked us if we wanted to hang out over the weekend. I just didn’t know if I wanted to go or if mum would let me. I just looked at Ally waiting for her to answer. Jay looked at us, raising her brows, then Ally blurted out that we would go.

She just agreed for me without asking. What the hell! She is such an ass. I had to agree to go with them only if mum would allow it. Don’t ask me why I have to ask permission from mum. I am staying with her and am her little girl.

Ally’s POV

I was in the office with Jay, we had finished our work, and we were chilling. I was glued to my phone when I heard a loud gasp from her. It startled me. Looking up to check what was happening, I found her intensely gazing at the door to our office. I followed her gaze to see what she was looking at.

I was stunned when I saw Mira standing there looking all sexy. Wow, today she went all out. I couldn’t help it as I found myself whistling. Mira looked at me surprised at my reaction. No wonder Jay is out of it. I was watching them. Their actions made the show for me.

Jay stared at Mira, she was literally drooling over her. Damn it, I was right all along, she has been watching her, and now she ain’t even hiding it. I watched as everything unfolded with a smirk on my lips. Why does she always check Mira out?

Mira was puzzled by what was going on, with the reactions we both had. Her face was so red from embarrassment or blushing, I couldn’t tell which one it was. Was she blushing that much? I was getting excited until I realized I am the only one who is in the right state of mind right now.

Rolling my eyes at Jay with the way she was looking, I decided to snap her out of it.

“Jay, what’s wrong with you?” I was smirking at her, knowing this time she wouldn’t deny it.

“W…w..what?” Jay stuttered. I could tell I got her off guard. She was looking at Mira while cursing silently under her breath.

“Did you see anything you like?” I was teasing her, and the looks they were throwing at each other got me confused. I was starting to wonder what was going on.

“Mind your business Ally,” She scoffed at me. I was getting on her nerves and I liked it when she was this worked up. You rarely get her like this. Am I missing something?

“The least you can do is compliment someone after you stare at them like that,” I said, winking at her. For some reason, I feel like she likes Mira. Could it be that Jay likes Mira? Isn’t Jay straight?

“Says who, I wasn’t staring, actually I love the dress,” She replied, which I find odd because, woman, I have seen her look at Mira more than I can count, mostly when she is in a dress.

“Then I guess you love all her dresses, the way you have been staring at her lately,” I blurted out before I could think, and at that moment I knew I had crossed a line. A glint crossed Jay’s eyes. She was so mad at me. What did I do? My mouth will kill me one day. I had caught the silent smiles that Mira was sending Jay’s way, and even if Jay was mad she didn’t show it in front of Mira making me suspect her even more.

“Shut the f**k up Ally!” Jay snapped at me. I figured I should hold my sloppy mouth. It’s for the best if I let this go. I don’t want her any angrier with me than the way she was.

“Okay! Okay!” I raised my hands with a smirk all over my face.

Being on her nerves already, I decided to shut up and continued watching some video clips. Mira sat on one of the empty chairs in front of us. We had changed the conversation, Jay had calmed down, and she was smiling now. I knew it was because of Mira. She would get on me sooner or later.

Although I stopped teasing Jay, I was still wondering about her behavior around Mira. What if she likes her. Will she tell her the truth because Mira is straight for sure? I was stealing glances at them discreetly.

I have been watching how Jay has been looking at this girl, and how she treats her. Even when we go to lunch she will let her sit first, pull up her chair and even pay for her lunch sometimes. Just like a gentleman.

Jay got out of her seat and went to the empty chair next to Mira and took Mira’s phone. After playing a bit with the phone, she gave it back. I was just watching them. They look so happy. Jay looks like she is always smiling at her, and she protects her a lot even from our dirty gossip.

I was still looking at them when Jay stood up and said something to Mira’s ears and I saw her face turn red. What the hell! Is she blushing? My eyes were wide open from the discovery. She had been blushing, and I had assumed it was an embarrassment. I was about to say something when I saw Jay glaring at me, she was daring me to open my mouth. I shut it.

When we were about to go home, Jay asked if we could go out over the weekend and I knew Mira wouldn’t agree because I knew her mum wouldn’t agree. I agreed to it before she could say anything to turn down the offer. This way I will watch them and see how they behave outside work.

Finally, Mira agreed to join us only if her mother agrees to it. On my side, I was genuinely praying her mother would let her come with us. I want to see them and I want to confirm my suspicions about Jay. I am almost sure she is into Mira, but I don’t know how I will ask her about it. She doesn’t like talking about herself.
