Front Porch Talks
It was two weeks before Ed said another word to his daughter. Each and every day he avoided the office, he avoided Nick, he avoided having to face the situation altogether.
Rachel had tried to take to him about Cheyenne and Nick but it only resulted in a fight between them each time. He didn’t understand why she was ok with this. Cheyenne had no clue what she was getting into. Nick came with baggage. She was making a fool out of him and his business.
Today however he couldn’t avoid her. Today she was sitting on the front porch steps waiting on him. Oh sure he could just back up and leave, refuse to talk to her but what kind of dad did that make him. He knew he had to face her eventually.
As he approached her Cheyenne looked up and he could see the exhaustion all on her face. It was hard to be mad at her, she was his baby girl, but he was so disappointed in her. He had raised her to be so much better than this.
Sitting down beside her he took a

How did that go?"Sighing Cheyenne tilted her head, "Nick, don't bypass my question."He smiled down at her reaching out and pulling her closer to him. "It wasn't worth upsetting you with.

Never Meant to be His Where's the Fun in That
As Cheyenne drug herself out of bed, she couldn't help but think to herself how this better be worth it. Her dad had told her when she had first come home that if nothing else she could help with the paperwork in the office. She had originally declined his offer not wanting to be bored out of her mind but if she had plans of seducing Nick Griffin she had to put herself around him. He was at the office more than her dad. In fact, he was the one she was meeting with this morning.There was no set dress code for working at the office but Cheyenne had her own agenda so she dressed up for it. Tempted as she was Cheyenne forgo shorts for a pair of skinny jeans that hugged her every curve. The top she wore was a casual v neck that dipped down exposing just enough breast to catch someone's attention. She wore her wedge sandals to give her the height her small stature lacked. Her makeup was flawless, hair flowing, today's mission was to simply catch Nick’s eye and find out if he

As he walked in she looked up at him, "you so owe me lunch now, maybe even dessert."Nick stopped by her desk looking down at her, "I suppose you do deserve to be rewarded." As she tilted her face up to his he let out a breath, he needed out of the office. "What do you want and I'll go pick it up."Cheyenne shrugged, "it's not like there are a lot of choices. I should have asked for a home-cooked meal."Nick laughed, "How about I surprise you?"Nodding as she looked back down at her paperwork she shrugged, "go for it but if it's nasty you never pick again.""Fair enough," he said before heading to his office to grab his keys.Cheyenne knew she had made him nervous earlier. Her outfit had worked like a charm. She had seen his eyes graze her body. Now she just needed to find out if she was g
Never Meant to be His Behave
Monday morning rolled back around and Nick felt a little better about being stuck all day in the office with Cheyenne. He had taken her advice and went out with a friend of his to get his mind off of her. It had worked for the most part but he was almost looking forward to seeing what new things Cheyenne had planned for him this week.Hearing the ding of the front door he looked up figuring she would walk in his door in something tight or low cut. When she didn't appear he frowned wondering if maybe she had given up on whatever plot she had cooked up in her head. He tried to get back to work but the fact that she hadn't come in to talk to him this morning bothered him. She came into his office every morning like clockwork.Getting up he told himself he was just going to pour some fresh coffee in his cup but he found himself leaving the break room and heading to the front. Cheyenne was at her desk with her head rested on her hands. Her hair covered her face so he couldn
Never Meant to be His No Need to Push
Nick walked into the office carrying a couple of pizza boxes. He had assumed Cheyenne would open the door for him like she usually did but she wasn't at her desk. Figuring she was either in the breakroom or the bathroom he headed on to the back to set the boxes down. Walking to the fridge he pulled out a soda popping the top cussing when he heard the phone ring.Stepping out into the hall to head to his office he found himself colliding with Cheyenne as she stepped out of the restroom. Out of instinct, he reached out to steady her even as her hands rested on his chest. The phone ringing started to sound more like alarms to Nick warning him of impending danger. One step back would break their contact but neither moved.Nick looked down at her, "Cheyenne..."She looked up at him closing her eyes as he ran his hand down her face, "I have to get the phone." Nodding she stepped back opening her eyes and watching him as he paused before walking past her.Cheyenne walke

Cheyenne looked out the window watching the rain. It had been raining when she woke up and if that hadn't been bad enough she had a text from Nick telling her that with the rain some of the crews wouldn't go out today. He was going to help one of the crews with some problems they were having and wouldn't be in this morning. She had no clue if that meant he wasn't coming in till late or if he just wasn't coming in at all.As if the world knew she was at the office alone she had been slammed with phone calls, most of which she had no idea of what to tell them so she had to take messages and promise to call them back. She had considered going out for lunch but the way the driveway looked she would need a boat to get down the road. Hearing the phone ring again she sighed walking over to her desk and answering the phone. Rolling her eyes she heard the voice of somebody named Rebecca who had already called at least four times this morning. She had already told her that both Nick an
