[M4F] "What Would HR Say?" [PART 4] [Office romance] [Co-workers to Secret Lovers] [A Jealous Streak] [Manager Speaker to Boss Listener] [ Dinner Meeting] [Feeling Insecure] [Comfort] [L-bombs]

Premise: Speaker and Listener go to a company meeting at a restaurant and Speaker starts to get a little jealous when the CEO starts to flirt with the Listener.

| The sheets ruffle as Listener and Speaker wake up|

|Speaker says sleepily|

"I thought you said you didn't need to sleep."

...

"Resting your eyes? Sure I believe you. Your paperwork fell to the floor. The only thing that was left for you to do was to snore."

|Speaker laughs as Listener throws a pillow at him|

"I know my sweetest. You don't snore."

| Speaker gives Listener a small kiss|

"It's 5pm. Are you going to get ready for the company dinner soon?"

|Speaker gets out of bed and starts to put on his clothes|

"I was thinking of leaving before you. I usually get to events before you anyway. I'll be keeping up appearances."

...

|Speaker teases|

"You can rest your eyes a bit longer then."

...

"You know I'm going home to change. You're starting to get risky Boss."

...

"It's my fault? What did I do ?"

...

"I made you too comfortable?"

|Speaker laughs|

"While I am flattered, I'll keep my promise. I wouldn't risk getting ready here. You know I'm looking out for you ."

...

"Yes us, but you have way more to lose than I do. I always have you as my priority."

...

"I'll get home , get ready and drive to the restaurant. I'll be there before 8."

...

"I'll take a taxi . My car is just 20 minutes from here. Don't stress . Keep your mind clear for the meeting, okay."

...

"Yes love, I'll call you when I get to the car."

|Speaker picks up his keys|

"And when I get home . I know the drill love. Listen , I'll see you at the restaurant alright. I can't wait to see you."

|Speaker leans in and kisses Listener. Listener pulls Speaker in by the collar|

"Hey."

|Speaker breaks the kiss|

"Remember the time . I'll get back to you ."

...

"It's just because we spent the whole day together you're going through your little withdrawal."

...

"It's cute love but I have to get going. You know this."

...

"Good . I'll see you soon alright."

|Speaker opens the room door, closes it and rushes down stairs|

SCENE CHANGE

|Speaker arrives at the restaurant. Live classic music play in the background as he walks to his table|

"Pleasant afternoon Mrs. Johnson , Miss. Singh... Gentlemen."

|Speaker takes a seat |

...

"This year's restaurants have just gotten better and better. "

...

" The numbers say we earned it."

|Glasses clink together for a cheers|

"Ahh. Mr. Gordon ... Boss."

...

"The celebrations would never start without you ."

...

"Of course, of course . The floor is all yours."

TIME SKIP

Speaker's Thoughts: "They came in together... Arms intertwined. This is normal, They met outside and he walked her in . That's fine, he's the CEO , he's her superior. But the way he's looking at her..."

|Speaker is pulled out of his thoughts|

"Y-yes agreed. I took the liberty of printing the documents before you tonight to show the massive progress our development and integration projects have made under our COO. "

...

"Of course sir, my Boss will always deserve the commendation."

Speaker's Thoughts: " Whispering to her! I need to focus. I don't even know what it's about. It could be nothing. I shouldn't be feeling this way. I promised I'd always be professional. This is taking more self control than I thought."

|Speaker is pulled out of his thoughts|

|Speaker joins in absentmindedly|

"Cheers!"

...

"If I'm okay? Sure thing I'm fine. Thank you for your concern Boss."

...

"I am sure. Thank you ."

Speaker's Thoughts: "There he goes again. Do you need to touch someone when you offer a word of praise? Ughh! I need to keep it together. I can't have my emotions showing on my face. I just need to take a breath and align myself. That's all."

...

Speaker's Thoughts: Meeting is over. We're free to roam the bar now. I just casually go over- Seriously? He's by her side going to the bar too?

...

Speaker's Thoughts: "I'll just linger close- the other managers are calling me over. It would look too obvious if I didn't go over. I'll just have to forget about Mr. Gordon."

...

"Yeah I'm driving home tonight guys. Only virgin drinks for me. Clinked the glasses and never took a sip."

|Speaker laughs|

...

"I'll have a non-alcoholic old fashioned. Thanks. You guys live it up . I'll live through you."

...

"We all know no more than 3 drinks for Wayne in any professional setting ."

...

"It's because we like you and want you to keep your job. You know how you get. An Uber is always on stand-by ."

...

Speaker's Thoughts: " The moment I glance at them sitting over there at the other end of the bar, is the moment I fall out of the conversation. I can't believe I feel a little jealous over this... Maybe I'm insecure. I was so bold with her up until now I never thought I'd end up feeling this way. "

|Speaker rejoins the conversation|

"My drink? Thanks. "

...

"Yeah I'm fine. I'm probably just tired and fading out."

...

"Yeah the usual."

TIME SKIP

"Guys it's 11 and I have work in the morning. I'm calling it and heading home. You guys be safe. "

Speaker's Thoughts: " I should just leave. It would be better for me if I did. "

| Speaker walks from the bar and out of the restaurant. Speaker walks through the parking lot and unarms his car. Listener runs up behind him |

"Hey why are you running in heels on the asphalt! Careful."

...

"Yes I'm leaving. I have work tomorrow. "

...

"If something is bothering me?"

...

"I'm fine . You shouldn't stay out here too long or you might draw Mr. Gordon's attention."

...

"I'm fine really."

...

|Listen to walks over to the passenger side opens the car door gets in and closes it|

"Why are you in the car?"

...

"Okay fine."

| Speaker gets in the car and close the door|

"Yes, maybe something was bothering me.... Is bothering me."

...

"I just didn't think it was my place to say anything considering our positions."

...

|Speaker sighs|

"Yes it's about Mr Gordon."

...

"I guess I was a little uncomfortable watching you two tonight. I kept telling myself that he's the CEO and he is your boss. That barely helped. He kept touching you with every praise and compliment and then when he followed you straight to the bar after the meeting was over, I felt myself spiraling. I admit I was a little jealous ... okay a handful jealous. I even felt a little insecure because I am just the manager and he's the CEO of the entire company. There's no way I could match up to that. He was clearly interested in you and I just felt threatened if I'm being honest."

...

"I just had to distract myself for the entire night. I didn't want to ruin anything or cause any misunderstanding."

...

"I was scared to tell you. I started off so bold towards you and I felt that if I told you that I was feeling insecure and threatened you would think I was soft after I promised you that I could have everything taken care of and be brave about everything."

...

"Yeah I guess I didn't factor in emotions and feelings. "

...

|Speaker asks shocked|

"You told him !"

...

"You told him that he was crossing boundaries that you felt uncomfortable with, especially with him being your Superior..."

...

"I-"

...

"Yes I do trust you. "

...

"His position never crossed your mind and you never compared us..."

...

" It's almost embarrassing to say that what you said was comforting."

...

" Thanks for making me feel so safe to talk about how I was feeling."

...

"I do feel a lot better. Like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I really needed that reassurance."

...

"I love you so much."

...

|Speaker gives a light chuckle|

"Yeah we should definitely skip the kiss."

...

"Sure I love to talk more later. We have a road trip plan this weekend so that would be perfect."

...

"You should get inside before they start looking for you. Call me once you get home okay."

|Speaker whispers|

"I love you."
