"Knock-knock!" I was rudely awakened from my hot daydream as my boss, Danny, poked his head through my office door. I didn't mind at all since he was the guy in the daydream.
"To what do I owe this visit?" Looking up at him.
"Do you have those reports for me yet?" He asked as he walked into my office.
"Umm... yea, here they are," I said quickly ruffling through the stuff on my desk and handing him a folder. "That should be all you need." Playfully pulling my arm back as he reached for them.
"Quit your games!" His deep voice playfully scolded as he grabbed the folder and left. I watched as he disappeared again, leaving me to my thoughts.
Danny was ridiculously handsome. He was 33 years old. He originally started the company with his dad when they moved to the USA after he finished college. Since then, it developed into a successful mid-sized gas company. His dad had retired recently and moved to Europe and he officially took full reins of the company two months ago.
He stood at about 5'9, 230lbs of pure muscle and broad shoulders. He wore his black hair short and his face always seemed to have two days worth of stubble on it at any given time. His green eyes were always the first thing you noticed when he looked at you, not to mention his faint Irish accent. He always wore high end suits and a nice watches except for Fridays when he wore polos and khakis.
Every drop dead gorgeous man always has a flaw, his... he is married. He is married to a gorgeous woman and together they have a 2year old and a newborn, 7 months old. But honestly, he he could get any woman he wanted and he knew that.
I have had my eyes on him ever since the first time I met him. I was 25 and I had just started working for the company as HR assistant. I was maybe 2 months in when he started coming in everyday, training to take over after his dad.
I directly reported to the owner, which now meant that I reported directly to him. Which I had no problem with whatsoever. I was always known as 'fiery' at the office and everyone hated it but Danny because he knew it got the job done. It was simply my no-nonsense attitude. I am very tasks oriented and straightforward and if you were slacking off, as HR, it was my job to let you know.
I am 5'5", very slim but have some hips and a big ass. I have long brown, straight hair that stopped mid-back and brown eyes. I always wear fitted dresses and high heels to work, always gaining some attention especially from the field guys whenever they came into the office.
My work load was never ending and staying late on an afternoon was not out of the ordinary for me. Danny stayed late as well but always left before me. He'd always stop by my office on his way out and check on me before he left. His tone was always different from when he'd speak with me during the work day.
He spoke low and sweet, sometimes asking me about my personal life sometimes even flirting with me. He would send a lot of mixed signals but I knew he was married and wasn't going to go further than that. I was pretty sure if he wasn't married, I would have had him by the second week of him being boss.
I would always flirt with him and most times he'd brush it off but he would blush like a little kid. He would shake his head and tell me to stop. It never seemed to bother him very much though. I think he liked the attention or else he would have put a stop to it.
He swung by my office one Thursday afternoon at about 5:55 as I was getting packed up to leave for the day, "Hey, I have a few things I need your help with, care for some overtime?"
"Not a problem, give me a few minutes and I'll swing by your office." I had stayed late many evening working on stuff but never with him. I ran to the restroom, touched up my makeup and fixed my clothes before grabbing a cup of coffee and heading to his office.
I smiled at him noticing his suit jacket was hung on the coat rack. His shirt sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, his collar button undone and tie somewhat loosened. I loved the way he looked. "Hey Stud, what do you need?"
"Ashley, you know that is sexual harassment in the workplace right?" He blushed as he jokingly stated in his adorable accent.
I smiled, "Report me to HR then!" At that point I was head of HR.
"How would you like it if I made comments to you constantly, eh?" He was trying to pretend to be serious but he couldn't help but smile.
"Hey sugar lip, come to my office!" He tried to make a point.
"That was bad but if you got better at that I wouldn't mind!" I laughed.
He shook his head and smiled, "I don't know what to do about you missy." He walked around to sit behind his desk. "Alright, enough of that, let's get to work!"
"Actually, let's go over here!" Pointing to the cozy sitting area overlooking the lake at the other end of his office. There was a three seater, white vinyl sofa on one side, a black glass coffee table in the middle and two white arm chairs on the other side of the coffee table.
We sat in the armchairs with his laptop on the coffee table. He pulled up a report that he needed my help breaking down for him. Before I could start explaining the report, he started asking me if I had any plans for my weekend.
"I don't have anything planned but I might hang out with some friends."
"No plans with the boyfriend eh?" He smiled.
"Ha!" I laughed, "We broke up a few weeks ago!"
"Oh, I'm sorry!"
"What are you sorry for? Don't be sorry, I'm glad I dumped his ass."
