Mia
To say my weekend sucked would be putting it mildly.
I hardly ate, I hardly slept, and what little sleep I did get was interrupted by fantasies of my boss naked above me, beneath me, behind me.
I almost wished for the return of classes just so I had something to distract me.
Saturday morning I awoke frustrated and crabby but managed to somehow get myself together and take care of housework and grocery shopping.
Sunday morning, however, I was not so lucky.
I woke with a start, panting and trembling, my body sweaty and twisted in a mass of cotton sheets.
The dream I had was so intense it had actually brought me to orgasm.
Mr. Montgomery and I had been on the conference table again, but this time we were both completely naked.
He was on his back and I straddled him, my body sliding back and forth, up and down his cock.
He touched me everywhere: along the sides of my face, down my neck, across my breasts, to my hips, where he guided my movements.
I fell to pieces when our eyes met.
“Shit,” I groaned as I pulled myself out of bed.
This was going from bad to worse, quickly.
Who would have thought working for an angry jackass would result in my getting fucked up against a cold window at work and liking it?
I started the shower, and as I waited for the water to warm, my thoughts began to drift again.
I wanted to see his eyes looking up from between my legs, wanted to see his expression as he climbed on top of me, pushed into me, felt how much I wanted him.
I ached to hear the sound of his voice saying my name when he came.
My heart sank in my chest.
Fantasizing about him was a one-way ticket to trouble.
I was on the cusp of getting my graduate degree.
He was an executive.
He had nothing to lose, and I stood to lose it all.
I showered and dressed quickly to meet Emily and Julia for brunch.
Emily and I got to see each other every day at work, but Julia, my best friend since middle school, was tougher to nail down.
She was a buyer for Gucci and dutifully filled my closet with samples and overstock.
I still paid a pretty penny for them, but it was worth it.
I made decent money at Montgomery Media, and my scholarship covered all of my school costs, but even I couldn’t spend nineteen hundred dollars on a dress and not want to off myself.
I’d sometimes wondered if Raphael paid me so well because he knew I was the only one who could handle his son.
Oh, if only he knew.
I decided that it would be a bad idea to talk to the girls about what was going on.
I mean, Emily worked for Scott Montgomery and saw Trevor around the building all the time.
There was no way I could ask her to keep that kind of secret.
Julia on the other hand would kick my ass.
For almost a year she’d listened to me complain about what a dick he was, and she would not be happy to find out I was screwing him.
Two hours later I was sitting with my two best friends, drinking mimosas on the patio of our favorite restaurant, talking about men and clothes and work.
Julia had surprised me with a dress made from the most sumptuous fabric I’d ever felt.
It sat in a garment bag slung over the chair next to me.
“So how’s work going?” Julia asked between bites of her melon.
“That douche of a boss still giving you a hard time, Mia?”
“Oh, Beautiful Bastard.” Emily sighed, and I carefully studied the condensation on my champagne flute.
She popped a grape into her mouth and spoke around it.
“God, you should see him, Julia.
It’s the most perfect nickname I’ve ever heard.
He is a god.
And I mean that.
There’s nothing wrong with him, physically.
Perfect face, body, clothes, hair .
.
.
Oh, God, the hair.
He’s got that artfully arranged messy thing going on,” she said, motioning above her head.
I rolled my eyes.
I never needed a reminder about the hair.
“But—and I don’t know what Mia has told you—he really is awful,” Emily continued, growing serious.
“I mean, I wanted to shove a pocket knife into each of his tires within the first fifteen minutes of meeting him. He is the biggest dick I’ve ever met.”
I almost choked on a piece of pineapple.
If Emily only knew.
Truly, the man was blessed in the man-parts department.
It was unfair.
“Why is he such a jerk?”
“Who knows?” Emily said, and then blinked away as if she was really considering whether he had a good excuse.
“Maybe he had a hard childhood?”
“Have you met his family?” I asked, skeptical.
“Hello, Norman Rockwell.”
“True,” she conceded.
“Maybe it’s some sort of defense mechanism. Like, he’s bitter and feels like he has to work harder and prove himself to everyone all the time because he’s so damn pretty?”
I snorted.
“There isn’t a deep reason. He thinks everyone should care as much and work as hard as he does, and most people don’t. It pisses him off.”
“Are you defending him, Mia?” Emily asked with a surprised grin.
“Definitely not.”
I noticed Julia’s blue eyes were trained on me and had narrowed in silent accusation.
I’d done my share of complaining about my boss in the past several months, but maybe I’d never mentioned that he was gorgeous?
“Mia, have you been holding out on me? Is your boss a hot piece?” she asked.
“He is gorgeous, but his personality makes it pretty hard to appreciate.” I tried to be as nonchalant as I could.
Julia had a way of reading every thought I had.
“Well,” she said, shrugging her shoulders and taking a long sip of her drink, “maybe he’s pissed off because he’s got a tiny dick.”
I tipped back my champagne flute as my two friends howled in fits of laughter.
