“Hello, sunshine!” she sang, and I rolled my eyes, chuckling because of her silly nickname. She always called me “sunshine”, “flower” or something equally childish. I loved her silliness, though.
“Hello, grumpy,” I responded, using the nickname that was completely opposite from what Lauren was.
“Do you want to have lunch with me? We haven’t seen each other in ages.”
I glanced at my watch and saw that I did have some time for lunch with her. Lauren was right—we hadn’t seen each other in ages, and I missed her.
“Okay. Let’s meet i
n about fifteen minutes at our usual place?”
I entered the little pub that was Lauren’s and my most favorite place. It was cozy and it had a beautiful vintage interior. Each table had a small pot with flowers, and the walls were decorated with retro quotes in various colors and fonts. The service was always so polite, but the best thing of all was their food—the dishes were so good that it could make people lick their fingers after eating.
It also had food to go, and I decided I would order the roast beef with potatoes and a salad for Grant as I looked over the menu.
Just as I took a seat at one of the tables next to the windows Lauren came in, looking pretty in her long flowery dress and red hair collected in neat bun.
“Sunshine!” She exclaimed when she saw me, kissing me on the cheeks before she took her seat across from me.
The waiter came and we ordered our food.
She clasped her hands together in excitement. “So, how is everything going? You look absolutely gorgeous, by the way! You look somehow different, like you’ve been properly fucked recently, if you don’t mind me saying.”
“Lauren!” I smacked her hand, rolling my eyes.
“What? It’s true! You’re glowing somehow.” She grinned.
I immediately remembered how Grant ate me out, and my pussy warmed in response. What the hell was I becoming?
“You’re blushing now, Madison. What is it? Tell me. I know you, and I know there’s something going on.”
“Okay. So, here’s what happened. I got a new job.”
Lauren’s jaw dropped and she stared at me in pure surprise and joy. “Really?” she squealed. “That’s wonderful!” She clapped her hands. “We need to celebrate it with a drink!”
I giggled. “Thank you, Lauren, but I can’t. I’m working, and I don’t want to mess this up.”
“Okay. I get it. I’m also on a lunch break, so I understand. So tell me, what’s this job about?”
“You know about LQT Development Firm? LQT as in ‘Lawson, Quinn, Talon’?”
“Oh, of course! They are pretty famous.”
“Well, I started working there since yesterday.”
I told her about Grant’s company and the interview. I explained about this huge project we were working on and that I’d spent this morning on the construction site.
“And Grant Lawson is just...” My voice trailed off, and I was pretty sure I looked like I was walking on cloud nine. “He is so hot, Lauren. Like super hot.”
“Oh!” She smiled cheekily. “Well, from what I hear he really sounds like a good catch.” The next moment, she became serious, looking at me in a slight worry. “I’m all excited for you, flower, but please be careful. That company is known for its sharks and playboys, and I don’t want you hurt, especially when it comes to your boss.”
I nodded my head. “I understand what you mean, and I agree. I should be careful, but I would like to see him again. You know, he is super sexy and confident, and I would like if there could be... You know, something more.” I shrugged my shoulders.
I couldn’t tell her about oral Grant gave me last night. I couldn’t share with her just how dirty my thoughts actually were. Somehow, it sounded too personal and too complicated to talk about.
She squeezed my hand in support. “I know. I would also feel the same if my boss wasn’t a sixty year old grandpa! All he ever does is nag and order me around!” We laughed at her unfortunate circumstance. I had met her boss last year, honestly I was surprised he hadn’t retired yet. “Seriously! There aren’t any cute guys in my company! There are only those boring and ugly guys who wouldn’t know where vagina was even if their life depended on it!”
“You should come to my company then. There are a lot of cute, sexy guys.”
