Chapter 21
Forty minutes into creating a whole new template for the Cords Company, I was getting pretty tired. It was almost complete when I noticed Mr. Knuls screen. He too, was almost done.
His idea was to write a whole new template from scratch and email it before they closed for the night. I went back to typing, but had to clear the silence in the room, cause it was bugging me.
"Well Mr. Knuls your as fast as I am. You would make a wonderful secretary." I joked, smiling at the screen I was still working on.
I noticed he turned his head towards me in the corner of my eye. I kept my face on the monitor though, cause I knew if I looked at him, I would break out in tear jerking laugh.
"Oh Ya?"
I continued to type without responding, my eyes still glued to the monitor. He stopped typing and got up to walk to the bar.
"You want something to drink?"
"Sure, I'll have a water." I said, finally looking at him this time.
He looked worn out and over worked. I felt so bad for him at that moment. I completed it my part, once he came back with the water.
"Done." I said and grabbed the water from him.
"I have a couple more outlines myself and I'll be done too." He responded and sat down at the computer with his Red Bull, he had opened.
I started to open my water and turned the massive chair I was sitting in, towards his way to watch him work. His eyes were so focused and he typed so fast. I have never seen a man type that fast before. He amazed me at that moment. He must have done a lot different jobs before starting this company.
"Done." He said, slamming the last key and looked at his watch. "Yes! We did it. Now we just need to send this puppy over and that should fix it."
We combined the templates and I sent it via email. He turned in his little conference chair, he was sitting in and waited for me to look at him.
"Ok all sent Mr. Knuls." I said, then turned towards him too.
He stared at me for a moment and it was like a heater kicked on, cause I could feel myself sweating again. I so wanted to jump off the chair and sit on his lap. Wrap my hands around his face and kiss those plump lips he had. Grind myself on him, all the while-
"You hungry?" He asked, interrupting my little daydream.
Shit!!!
Hoping he didn't notice that daze I was in. I suddenly looked out the window behind us, so that I wasn't making eye contact anymore.
"Ya." I responded to the window, then slowly turned my head towards him, with a smirk that turned into a smile. He was staring at me again without saying anything.
"What?"
He scooted his chair with his feet closer to me. We were now knee to knee apart. He smelt so good. My stomach started to tickle when his hands went for mine, that were resting on my lap.
He took both of them in his own, engulfing them, then looked me in the eyes. His camel colored eyes were gorgeous. I almost started to daydream again, but he finally spoke.
"Let me feed you, my treat. I know a great place close to here, with one of the most delicious steak I have ever had in my life. You like steak?"
I squeezed his hands, still smiling at him and responded.
"That sounds good, ok."
"Great! Lets get out of here." He said, letting go of my hands and slapped the side of my leg.
Did he just slap me? He is so flirting with me again. I decided to flirt right back.
"Hey, we are still in the office Mr. Knuls." I smirked and pushed his massive shoulder.
We both laughed and got up. We gathered our stuff and headed out. The walk to the lobby was pretty silent between us, but once we got in the car, he started up with a conversation about the restaurant we were going to. He sounded so excited to be going and talked about how he is a regular there. He looked so cute ranting about it. I just sat and listened to him the whole ride there.
When we got in the parking lot, I noticed it must be one expensive place. I had never noticed it before, it looked sort of private. It was covered with lots of bushes and trees. It had a nice gated eating area outside, in a lovely rose garden too. Even though it was still daylight out, the inside was so dark. Candles were placed on the tables making it look gloomy, but yet very romantic.
"Wow Liam, you must come here a lot, huh?" I asked jokingly, grabbing his bicep and gave it a slight squeeze.
He opened the door and lead me in, with his hand on my lower back. With a light chuckle, he bent down to my ear, before we got to the hostess standing there, waiting to seat people. His breathe blew into my ear when he whispered in it.
"You will not be disappointed, the steak here is superb trust me."
After the last word he spoke, he gave me a gentle side kiss just under the ear he whispered in. I almost fainted in his side and was awakened quick, when I heard him laugh and call out to the lady standing there.
"Lacey, for two please."
"Yes Mr. Knuls right this way." She said, with a pretty smile and then lead us to a booth, that wrapped around a big table.
It could have sat six people, but when I looked around at the other tables, the place didn't seem to busy anyway. I decided not to say anything about it, until we slid in to sit. I was confused on which place set, I was supposed to sit in front of. He notice me looking at the table and patted the seat next to him, where he stopped at.
"Don't worry Sierra I won't bite."
I smiled and looked at the hostess all embarrassed. She wasn't paying any attention though, cause she was busy with setting down some waters for us.
"Ok then, sorry it's such a big table."
"Ya, that's why I need you close to me. Don't want to yell at you across the table the whole time silly." He responded, with a smile himself and then he bumped my shoulder with his arm, before grabbing the menu from the hostess. I almost fell over slightly from the bump. I looked towards him, straightening myself to grab the menu myself.
"Hey, you need to be careful with those. They might kill somebody." I laughed and squeezed his bicep again. He started to laugh too, after that.
Another lady came up and had a nice smile, as the hostess did earlier and introduced herself to us as our waitress. He looked up at her like he already knew her. She greeted him very cheery and polite at the same time. He winded up ordering us some beers and steaks. I had asked for a dinner salad to go with mine, since I was feeling famished. Also from the lack of body sweat I was losing this whole night, working with him.
"Oh you are going to be in pure heaven when you taste the steak here. I know the place is more for couples. Don't read anything into that though. I brought you here strictly for the food not the atmosphere. Cristy had asked me to take her here once for Valentines Day. I ordered a beer and steak and been hooked ever since. The girls here get a kick out of me being the only person that comes in alone.
At first they were concerned that I was getting stood up by someone and had asked if I wanted to date them." He chuckled and continue. "But they got used to it, after I told them what I was really here for."
When our beers came, I noticed she was carrying a bucket of ice and six ice cold Budlights in it. She pulled out 2 and opened them in front of us, setting them on little napkins next to our waters. She left the bucket on the table, when she walked away. I took my bottle and looked down at it.
I wanted so bad to ask about that kiss he gave me and wondered if he would consider seeing me outside work. That idea went away fast though, after he bumped me again
"Hey what are you thinking Sierra? You look lost in that bottle. Sit back, relax and enjoy." He said sitting back into the booth and lifted his arm up over it, around my head rest.
He looked so relaxed, sipping on his beer with his arm up. I decided not to ask him anything and just admire his presence at the moment. We were so close to each other on the booth. Our legs were like an inch apart and now that he put his arm up, I had a full view of his massive torso. It took a lot from me not to slide my hand down it, till I reached the top of his pants.
Urg!
Sierra stop lusting over this man! He is our boss you idiot!
"Oh, its nothing I guess I'm just tired that's all." I said and took a drink.
"I think I started to cramp up from all the typing we did. Man I can't wait till we eat, your going to love it. Trust me." He said, smiling down at me.
My salad came first, but the steaks came shortly after. They were as big as the plates and looked juicy. They also had a small potato that came with as well.
I devoured it. He definitely wasn't lying about how good it was. I was in heaven. I decided then, that this will now be my favorite place to eat, too.
