Under the Sheets - Love Under Lockdown

I glance over at her.

She has her headphones in and is relaxing to music. Her eyes are closed so I watch her for a few seconds. It’s funny, being this close to her.

For the first time in my life, I feel a little awkward. I’m usually so smooth around women. I don’t know what’s happening to me.

What’s fucking gotten into me?

I look away before she can open her eyes and catch me staring at her.

When we arrive at the airport, she shows me all our important travel documents in her bag. I never noticed before, but she is always so organized and thoughtful. I have noticed, however, how hot she is, especially now, when she’s wearing a low-cut blouse, short skirt and heels.

I don’t think I have ever been this turned on or wanted to have sex with someone this badly. I don’t know what has come over me. I can’t let these feelings interfere with work, but I want her so bad it’s killing me. I don’t know what to do.

I look over at her again and resign myself to the fact that I just won’t be able to stop myself. I want her and nothing I can do will change that. As I sit back in my seat and start to relax, I wonder how I can make this happen between us.

Obviously, this trip presents the perfect opportunity, and I just have to casually bring the subject up to her. We have the meeting coming up, so we will need to discuss the project. There will be a lot of celebratory congratulations going around.

I start to smile as it dawns on me that I can use that situation to my advantage. I plan it out in my head. After the meeting we can relax with dinner, maybe a few drinks. That should put us both in the mood and let us get swept up in our emotions.

Lisa moves in her seat. I stare at her again. She appears to have fallen asleep with her headphones on. I can’t help but smile at how innocent she looks. I wish I could reach over and touch her now, but I must keep my lust under control until after the meeting.

I tell myself that it is definitely going to be worth the wait. I watch her lips open slightly in her sleep. I have to look away so that I don’t get even more turned on than I already am.

I open my briefcase and read all the notes and everything that we prepared for the big meeting. Lisa did a surprisingly great job of helping me. I need to be sure to mention that to corporate. She deserves some praise for all the effort she’s put in. The quality of her work is impressive; we are going to take everyone by surprise tomorrow. I think that’s what we are both hoping for.

This would make an impressive mark on both of our careers. I think it’s more than that, though – being here with her I get to live out one of my fantasies.

If I’m being honest, I have to admit I have been thinking about her ever since she started working for me. I didn’t notice her at first, but as time wore on, I started gravitating towards these little things about her. I don’t know how it’s only just hit me that subconsciously I have been paying attention to her all along.

I usually don’t take this much interest in any one woman. I prefer to play the field. It’s easier to get through life without any attachments or baggage. That’s actually pretty common in the business world. We want everything to run smoothly, including the personal aspects of our lives. I wonder what my friends would say if they knew I was thinking like this about a woman.

I’ve never shown the slightest interest in wanting to settle down or get involved in a serious relationship. That’s never been my style, so why am I starting to now? What’s so special about this woman that is making me change things about myself?

Maybe it’s the shape of her body, the color of her eyes. As she got more comfortable around the office her style of clothing changed. It’s not inappropriate, but she definitely accentuates her full voluptuous figure now.

I can’t believe I had actually made a few casual remarks about some of the outfits she has worn. But I couldn’t help myself, because she looked so damned good that I had to say something. My comments clearly caught her off-guard, but I don’t think she could tell that there was anything more behind them.

I put away my papers and try to relax like she is. The plane ride shouldn’t be too long, and the weather is good for travel. When we land, I will need to look up restaurants that I can take her to after the meeting.
