Knocking on the office door, I waited for Williams response. I wasn’t looking forward to bringing his documents to him. They were all trashed because of that pathetic printer. The fight I had with it was evident by the toner marks all over my white blouse. Thank god it didn't touch my skirt, I’d never have gotten the marks out of this linen weave. Well, at least he can re-print. If I had my way, that machine would be thrown out in the next trash unit. I never understood why he refuse to purchase another, its like he enjoys seeing me tangle with the blasted contraption. “Come.” William sounded exasperated. Feeling the dread, I entered, the room noticing his eyes immediately flew from my face to my chest, the corner of his lips curling a little. “Ah, I see you have had another run in, Why is it, Melissa, you are the only one who seems to have grief?” his voice holding that usual exasperated tone. I hated that. “I have no idea sir.” Walking to his desk to place the messy looking documents on his desk; only his hand grazed mine as he took them directly. Williams skin always was so hot, I felt my breath catch over that simple little touch. Watching his head bow while moving the papers from one hand to the other, his head starting to shake. “These are a mess, is the machine fixed now?” He glanced back up, catching my eyes. Beautiful brown velvet, I would love to get lost in them. I shook my head, to express no and also to shake myself out of the fantasy I was starting to build ...

One day I know I will embarrass myself, I just hope it wouldn’t be today, but I had a strange feeling. “Hmm, okay let's go and see if between us, we can ensure you don’t have trouble again.” William brushed past me out the door and down the corridor. He didn’t notice how his elbow brushed against my breasts. My breath shook as I turned and followed him. Watching the strong stride, legs of an athlete, a tight butt, narrow hips, with a body that grew into wide shoulders and a strong neck. I loved watching how he moved around the office, the graceful flow of a predator. Sighing out loud, if only he would pounce on me. He turns his head catching me out. “Hurry up would you, I need these before the meeting.” Williams' lips curling that little bit more, his eyes twinkling made me pick up speed. I need to get a life. Maybe I should take Mr Sinclair's offer up, move to his side of the building, it was after all a promotion. But honestly it felt like I was betraying the man in front of me if I did. I don’t know why, we all work for the same business. Sighing internally I knew exactly why I hadn’t taken the offer, I wouldn’t get to see him every day. Yeah, I really do need to get a life. The printing room was little, three machines and a photocopier. Very little room for one person let alone two. I never understood why William wanted his ...
