Shelly continued to curse herself as she pulled her car into one of the empty parking spots in front of the office building. She had set aside an hour to go to the gym and work out some of the stress that the week and provided, she was almost there when she remembered she didn't have her membership card on her. She spent 15 minutes throwing her house apart trying to search for that lil plastic card before it dawned on her that she might have left it in her desk at work.
Jumping out of her car she jogged up the stairs toward the locked door, her keys jingling at her side before she slipped the key into the lock and heading it, not bothering to lock the door behind her since she was only going to be there for a second. The lights were off through most of the building but as she headed toward the back offices she could see the light beaming out from beneath the closed door and that made her pause a moment. Checking her watch she frowned, it was almost 9 in the evening and she hadn't spotted any other cars out front when she pulled in.
Probably just the janitor
, she thought to herself. But even still she walked a bit slower as she neared the door.
Reaching out she turned the knob and found it unlocked. With a small frown she pushed it open and slipped inside, hazel eyes taking a quick scan over the area. Shrugging off the feeling of uneasiness she headed toward her desk and started to open her drawers looking for her card, figuring that whoever left the office last this afternoon must have forgotten about the lights. With a huff of annoyance she slammed her drawer shut and leaned against her desk trying to figure out where she could have misplaced the card. Shaking her head as she continued to scold herself she headed toward Mr. Tanner's office to turn off the lights before she left.
Opening the door, she was surprised to find Mr. Tanner leaning back in his chair, a ton of papers covering his desk. She opened her mouth to speak when she realized that he was reclined back in his chair, his eyes closed and looked to be sleeping. Unable to help herself she leaned against the door frame a bit and took the opprotunity to openly study him. Ever since she started working as his secretary a year ago she had a crush on him. It was true he was older than most of the guys she would have gone after or been attracted to but there had always been something about him. And he, not once ever noticed her. Not that she could blame him for that since she barely spoke at all unless he needed her to fetch something or to take notes.
Shelly had always stolen quick gazes at him when his back was turned to her so the chance to actually look at him now had her heart pounding just a little bit faster in her chest. She loved the way he looked while he slept. So peaceful. His blond hair was a bit messy, which was something she wasn't used to seeing. His suit jacket was flung over the back of one of the chairs in front of his desk. The first few buttons of his shirt was undone and he had loosened his tie so that it hung low around his neck. The whole image of it just had her getting a bit wet. So many nights already she would get herself off while thinking about him and just standing here now, watching him, she felt the strong pull of desire urging her to touch herself.
Knowing better than to do something foolish like that, after all he might wake up and catch her, she cleared her throat and muttered. "Mr. Tanner...?" She said his name a few more times, a bit louder each time, in hopes or rousing him from his slumber and yet he didn't even stir. She didn't want to leave him here and let him sleep in that chair all night. She doubt that he probably hadn't even meant to fall asleep at all.
Walking around his desk she tried again. "Mr. Tanner.." Still nothing, so she leaned over and lightly tapped him on his shoulder. "Mr. Tanner..it's Shelly. Wake up, Sir." She tapped him a bit harder as she spoke and no sooner has she gotten to the end of her sentence than he suddenly sat up in his chair, the movement caught her off balance and she made the mistake of reaching out to try and steady herself by placing one hand against his shoulder and the other on his desk.
Automatically Tanner's hands darted upward to try and help her from falling but the feel of his hands upon her hips had her loose all focus and concentrate and she went tumbling into his lap. "Oh god.." She muttered it beneath her breath as she went deathly still.
Move you idiot..get up and off him!
She heard those words over and over in her head and yet she couldn't get herself to move.
"Shelly..?" He wasn't sure how long he had been sleeping for but to be awake so sudden and then have a warm body pressed against him, he couldn't help from responding. It was human nature after all. He blinked a few times to get the sleep out of his eyes and to think clearly, looking around he realized he must have fallen asleep at his desk yet again, but that didn't explain why Shelly was here. Even as he wondered about that his eyes traveled down along her body, taking in the fact that she wore a pair of blue shorts and a tank top. Her long blond hair which was normally down around her shoulders was pulled up high in a pony tail. It was a different look for her, all he ever saw her in were dress suits.
"Oh god Mr. Tanner..I'm so sorry. I meant only to wake you up. I'm just so clumsy!" She spoke hurriedly as she finally snapped back to reality and started to move, trying to get up from his lap. Her still had his hands curled around her waist and she felt those fingers tighten a bit as she tried to get up.
"Don't..." He wasn't sure why he said it. He surely hadn't meant to tell her to stay where she was but logic was being overriden by the sudden fierce desire to keep her in his lap. His hands eased up on their grip, giving her the option to get up if she wished but he wanted her to stay. He was sure she could feel him growing hard within his trousers beneath her.
"I..." Uncertain what to say she went still in his lap. How long had she dreamed about how it would feel to have his hands on her? To feel him against her? And now, almost like a dream she had both. She knew she should get up, beg forgiveness for her clumsiness and leave the building as quickly as she could but she didnt'. She couldn't. Instead she slowly leaned back against him so that her back was flat against his chest. Her head lulled back to rest against his shoulder, arms dangling by her side.
