I let out a slight scream, from being freaked out by the movie and the door knocking as well. I had to bundle up the blanket, I just spilled my drink all over and put in the laundry.

"I'll be right there." I yelled at the door.

The knocking stopped

"Why did I pick strawberry? Urg! That is going to stain now." I said to myself, walking into the bathroom to throw it in the basket.

I looked at the clock on the wall, before heading to the door and it was around 10pm. Who could be knocking on my door at this time at night?

I looked through the peephole and a beam of heat rushed to my chest instantly. I couldn't see his whole face, but I recognized his suit and the size of his torso.

"Shit!" I whispered to myself. Looking down at what I was wearing, my eyes popped out. I was in my sleep clothes. The sweat pants I was wearing were ok, but I was also in a tight spaghetti strap tank top, with no bra on.

"Uh, Hold on!" I yelled to the door again and rushed to my room, to get a light zip up sweater, to cover up my all ready hard nipples sticking out of it.

I came back real quick, opening the door and leaned on the door way.

"Mr. Knuls?"

"Can I come in?" He ask.

"Sure." I responded and let him walk past me into the living room. I felt my legs get a little weak, just by the smell of him. He had on some kind of ocean breeze cologne, that suited him for sure.

"Oh wow, what are you watching?" He says, looking at the TV I still had on.

Dam it!! The movie was still playing. It was a pretty gruesome part when he asked.

"Oh just some stupid scary movie." I said, all embarrassed and ran to pick the controller up, to turn off the DVD player.

"So you like to be scared, huh?" He asked, slightly turning his head to me with the most amazing smirk, creeping on his lips.

I giggled all shyly. "I guess sometimes. You want something to drink?" Trying to change the subject.

"Uh sure, thanks." He said and sat down on the couch.

"What would you like?" I asked, walking into the kitchen.

I knew he probably wouldn't mind what I got him. He liked anything with caffeine, but I was drinking alcohol tonight and wondered if he might want the same. My half spilled drink was still on the coffee table in front of him, so he must have known what I was drinking.

"What ever your having."

Yep! Knew it!

I grabbed two more Smirnoffs out of the fridge and handed him one before I sat down on the couch, slightly next to him. I put mine on the table and cleaned up the spill, while picking up the half empty one to finish it.

"So what brings you here Mr. Knuls?"

"I was just wondering if you were ok and if you had any troubles getting the ring." He said, opening the bottle. He rapped his lips around it and tilted it back. I loved watching him drink it. His atoms apple moving in his neck, made me want to suck on him for hours.

"Oh, I think I saw Cristy come up when I was coming out, so I went back in the house to hide." I replied, but left out the me naked in his bed part of it.

"But she never came in. Someone winded up calling her and she took off."

He laughed and smirked at me again.

"Ya that was me. I stalled her before she came in. Told her to meet me somewhere to talk. I got to thinking after asking you to do that for me was going to far. I figured if I just gave her my time and talked with her, maybe she would change her mind about the whole thing. I'm so sorry Sierra."

"Mr. Knu-" He cut me off.

"Sierra we are not at work, you don't have to call me that in your own home."

I smiled and chuckled. "Ok Liam, you don't have to be sorry. I consider you not only my boss, but my friend as well. I enjoy my job and the time we talk. I didn't mind doing you favor. That Cristy lady doesn't seem like your type though, if you ask me."

"Oh ya, how do you know my type?" He asked, getting more comfortable and took another drink.

I tucked one of my feet under my butt and turned towards him, with one arm over the couch. "She just seems very snotty to me. Like a women that has no sense of humor. I know I don't really know her personally, but I just catch that vibe you know?"

A small laugh escaped his throat.

"Ya, you could say that, she's also very persistent though. I winding up meeting with her after work tonight and she was going on and on about getting the ring back. I finally cut her off and told her the truth about the ring. I didn't give much details to you today about it and I'm sorry about that. I just needed it to be taken out of the house as soon as possible, cause I knew she was going there to take it."

He took another drink and continued, while I attentively listened.

"I had dated her for a couple months and her family got impatient about her not being married for her age. Said that since she was with me, we should consider thinking on a future together. I of course didn't agree, but she was determined after that and wouldn't leave me alone about it.

So one night she notice a ring in my house and asked about it. It was my mothers engagement ring my dad had given to her before they got married. I just told her I bought it for a women I was dating and she gave it back to me when we broke up. I should have told her the truth all along, cause after that, she asked if I would give it to her. I said I would consider that, if I plan to ask for her hand in marriage one day.

A couple days later her sister walked past me out in the lobby and said 'Congratulations Liam, can't wait for the big day.' I asked what she meant and she says to me 'Cristy has on the ring you gave her. You are getting married right?'

My eyes widen and my mouth dropped. I put one hand over my mouth to cover it.

"No way?"

He looked at me un-blinking.

"Ya, she winded up taking it from me and telling her whole family I proposed. Well I was furious after that. So while she was sleeping one night, I took the ring from her finger. The next morning of course she found out and blew up and stormed out of my life.

It was around the time you started working for me. We had a big business dinner to attend to and winded up bumping into her father. He kind of threaten me about screwing his daughter over. That is when I got worried about my safety. She has been bugging me about it ever since."

"So what happened when you met with her today? Did you tell her it was your mothers?" I asked un-blinking as well.

He had a relax smile on his face and turned more towards me.

"That's why I came by here tonight."
