"Still looks good here dad." I said not being completely honest. " It looks somewhat different than i remember though. "
" What do you mean dear?" he asked me, stopping just in front of the door.
" I feel like this place is missing something but I can't put my finger on it." I replied, trying to think of what was different.
" Flowers my child, the flower beds have been let go and haven't been taken care of in some time." he replied back looking a little down.
" I guess you are right dad but that is fine i could work on that once warmer weather comes around." I said back to him. " Now how about we get to work now. I am so excited to start working with you Dad I have waited for this day for so long now."
" Shall we?" he asked as he put his arm out for me. I nodded and gripped his arm as he opened the door.
As soon as we stepped inside and closed the door Dad showed me the way to my cubicle where I would be working from. It was so small that the cubicle was all I could think of. He then called Betty, his elderly assistant over to show me the ropes. Betty is a very sweet lady. She used to send cookies home with Dad for me all the time. She never had any grandchildren so she took me under her wing. I can't complain though I enjoyed it.
"Good morning Lily dear." greeted Betty.
" Good morning Betty."
" This here dear is your list of clients phone numbers and names over here is the fax machine. When someone comes in you just call your dad on line one and he will let you know whether you can send them right in or have them wait. We also have a coffee pot over there and there is a small waiting area on the other side of the room. Do you think you got it? if you need anything I will be in and out today so don't hesitate to ask."
" I think I got it Betty thank you ." I replied. Soon after she left I heard the door open and faint footsteps come closer.
" May I help you sir" I asked as I brought
eyes up to meet his. At the same time I was rendered speechless with those nice blue eyes, and golden blonde locks. Those well defined muscular abs chest, body oh my and that face is it possible to fall in love at first look. No no it can't be possible this is all wrong. I think this man is a client I can not let myself fall for his charm no matter what it is not professional at all or whatsoever.
" Mam, are you okay? " said a voice shaking me from my thoughts.
" Yes sorry I was just thinking of something." I replied. " I hope I turned my curling iron off."
" The name is David and you don't have to lie to me. I know you were checking me out." he said with a wink.
"The name is Lily and please don't flatter yourself sweetheart, I have seen way hotter." I can't believe I just said that.
" So Lily you were checking me out?" he replied.
" Let's get down to business David. Have you ever been here before? And do you have an appointment?. " I asked.
"No I have not and yes I do have an appointment." He replied. "And hopefully have one with you by the time I am done here." He added with a wink.
"Well David can you fill this form out for me? You know just so I can have your information on file in case my father or I need to reach you." I said.
"Well my dear if you wanted my number all you had to do was ask." He replied back with a hint of flirt on his voice.
"Oh David, David, David trust me if I really wanted your number for myself I would have gotten it from you already. But apparently I haven't so will you please just fill out these forms and I will let Mr. Stephen's know you are here." I spat out.
What's wrong with me? This man is gorgeous and trying so hard to get my attention. There is something about him that makes my heart flutter and yet I keep turning him down.
After the forms were all filled out and entered into my database or whatever this filing system thing on this computer is called. I called my father and sent David to my dad's office. Finally David was out of my hair but not before he asked for my number which I kindly declined. I can't believe he would think after all of that of me rejecting him he would have the nerve. The rest of the day went smoothly and I was home free relaxing on the couch with mountain dew and fuzzy leopard print pink pajama pants and an overly baggy sweatshirt on. What an awesome way to spend a night after a long first day at work. The only thing missing is a gallon of ice cream and some chocolate. Too bad I am all settled in for the night but I will so keep in mind next time I go out. Which so happens to be tomorrow after work.
I enjoy the comfort of my favorite blue fuzzy pajama pants and oversized shirt. Okay so maybe I really love all my fuzzy jammies and oversized shirts Especially on a Friday night like tonight after a long week at work. I know I just started a week ago and am already glad to be enjoying a nice quiet night curled up on the couch with some popcorn and a good movie. Okay so maybe a gallon of rocky road ice cream and chocolate bars also. My choice of movie tonight is Grease and I am all excited to go watch it. Well that is as soon as this popcorn is done. After the popcorn I will work on my ice cream which isn't much left after the other night when I bought some on my way home from work. "Lily" Dad says and he comes into the kitchen. "Yes Dad." " I really think it's time to go out. For you I mean go enjoy yourself, have a few drinks, have fun, get out there and don't be afraid to get
What is that awful smell it smells gross oh my gosh it smells like something is burning but what could it be. It is so early in the morning I wouldn't think that Dad would be cooking anything. Well it is Saturday morning maybe he is cooking pancakes or something. " Nicky, get up something is burning" I said shaking her. " Pancakes burnt pancakes." she mumbled as she rolled over and continued on snoring. After a few minutes of hearing her snores I got up and headed down the stairs. " Dad can I help you with anything?" I finally asked after I stood there in the doorway watching him struggle a few minutes and hearing him yell at the pancakes that are now sticking to the griddle that was on the stove in front of him. " Yes dear can you finish these pancakes so I can set the table?" " Yes dad i replie
I left David sitting at the kitchen table begging me to talk about this. I was done talking can't he take the hint. I went straight up to my room and slammed the door. How could he? I can't believe that man I shot him down, I gave him my answer and the nerve of him to talk to my Dad and still ask questions about me. I am happy with how I am. What does he expect Dad to do to play matchmaker? The way I see it he is a client no matter what he says, I mean he has to make an appointment to meet my dad so yes he is a client. A client whom I just happen to have a huge crush on and can't stop thinking about. Or well at least I think it is a crush I am not really sure I have never been in this situation before. It's got to be just a crush right? He is all I think about since the day I met him, I try so hard to get him out of my mind. Why does this have to be so complicated or am I the one who is making it all complicated? I will just have to talk to D
Finally the night I have been waiting for this whole week. Not a day went by that I didn't think about David. The week dragged on and the more it dragged the more I got excited and couldn't wait for my date night with David. I tried to stay busy all week and my mind off of David but I just couldn't. Now that it's here I am starting to get nervous. A few mins before five and the pizza has finally arrived. In a few minutes David will be here and if he is not here he will get a piece of my mind and he will have to watch my pick of movies. Let the countdown begin. He has fifty seconds to get here. fifty, forty nine, forty eight, forty seven, forty six, forty five. Finally he is here I scream in my head. Now I really am starting to act like a little love sick school girl. Less than two seconds later the doorbell rings. As I answer it I begin to feel really nervous all of a sudden. " Well David you're right on time" I sa
As I tossed and turned around in my sleep I awoke startled. It took me a few minutes to realize I was lying in my bed and then it all came back to me. I wasn't dreaming last night, it was actually real. I moved my arm slightly to check and see if the arm was still wrapped around me. It is oh great now I am blushing and I really have to go pee. But every time I try to move he pulls me even closer to him. I know I will try to twist and turn just enough so that I don't wake him up. Okay so there goes that idea he now has a death grip on me."David, can you let me up for a minute? I have to go to the bathroom."" Ugh what?" he asked finally. " Oh Lily I am sorry I didn't realize I was cuddling with you." he said suddenly moving his arm away from me. " It's okay." I said blushing. " I really don't mind, that was the best night sleep
As soon as David left Sunday morning I turned on my phone. Only to find six missed calls and about ten text messages from Nicky.hey girl call me as soon as you get thisNickychica call meNickyLily are you up yetNickywaitingNicky oh boy I thought if I call her now I will be on the phone with her for hours. I want to tell her what happened right away but dad is taking the morning off from work to take me out to breakfast. So I think I will probably just send her a quick message letting her know that I will call her as soon as I get home from the waffle house with Dad.Hey Nic everything was good I will call with details as soon as dad and I get back from breakfast.Lily
After I woke up from my nap I realized that I had forgotten to pull something out for supper so I decided to order some subs for dinner to eat when Dad gets home. I didn't really feel like going out to pick them up so I had them delivered even though it was only down the road. They were happy to make the delivery and they got a lot of business from me. I know it sounds bad, always ordering out, but now that I am working with dad and he is putting in all of these extra hours at the office, I haven't cooked as much. It was getting late so I decided to go ahead and eat without him. As I started the dishes Dad finally showed up. It was now a little after eight, soon David would be here. I guess I should tell Dad so he knows what my plans are for this evening. I know he won't mind but I don't want him being surprised when David shows up with an overnight bag."Hey dear sorry I am late. I hope you didn't wait for me to eat your dinner. I should have called and let y
All night Monday night I tossed and turned. Even though David was right by my side I just had trouble sleeping. I was just too happy and excited to sleep. I am so glad I finally said yes and let things happen as they came. I just hope it wasn't a mistake he is just so perfect for me in every way. He makes me feel complete, it was like before I met him I had a big hole or emptiness in my heart and now it's filled. It is finally official that I am now David's girlfriend and I couldn't be any happier. I know I just met him not long ago but I love him so much already. "Lily, is everything okay? You keep tossing and turning"David asked. "Yes I am David I am just so happy I can't sleep." I replied. " But I am okay." "It's okay hun I am happy also but you really need your sleep you have to work in a few hours." He replied back as he wrapped me up closer to him.
