A One Night Stand With My Boss

Connor watched Camila, her cheeks glowing with a rosy blush, her eyes sparkling with a certain allure. He swallowed hard, feeling his throat tighten.

A voice in his head practically shouted, *Stop staring or you're gonna lose it.*

He cleared his throat and took a deep breath. "I'm gonna go take a shower," he said, his voice coming out rough.

Camila snapped back to reality, tugging on his jacket. Connor paused.

Her face was bright red, and she warned, "Don't change your clothes."

If he did, people might start gossiping about things that would make her want to bury herself in embarrassment.

Connor raised an eyebrow, a playful smile forming as he kissed her glossy lips lightly, "Alright."

Not trusting himself to stay any longer, he quickly headed to the lounge.

Camila sat on her desk, letting out a soft sigh, trying to calm her racing heart. Once her cheeks cooled down, she got off the desk, straightened her clothes, and grabbed a random folder from his bookshelf, pretending to be busy as she walked out of his office.

Back at her seat, she pulled out a small mirror. Her cheeks were still a bit pink, and her lipstick had been completely kissed off. She reapplied it, sighing to herself, *Dating really uses up a lot of lipstick!* Once she was composed, she opened a file and dove back into her work.

Erica texted her about coming over for a barbecue tonight, mentioning Logan would be there too.

Camila checked Connor's schedule; no social engagements, but he had a meeting at four.

She texted Erica back, [I'm good, but Connor has a meeting; he might be late.]

Erica replied, [OK]
