Chapter 8

Apparently, he was a lech.

The coolness of the water washed over David in what had become a near nightly tradition of cold showers followed by hot dreams.

All because of Therese.

The scent of her when she leaned close to him came to mind. The figure she cut in her tailored suits. The sway of her backside as she left his office after their late evenings working together.

A soft, brief moan escaped David and he held onto the pipe leading to the shower head.

Couldn’t this water get any colder?

Stepping out, he toweled himself off and hopped into a pair of shorts, shrugging on a soft t-shirt sporting the name of his college.

Going to his closet, he double-checked the attire he’d chosen for Therese’s event today. Nodding at his selection, he walked to his kitchen and made himself a cup of coffee before transferring to his living room.

Plopping on his couch, he turned on the television only to stare blindly at a woman trying to sell him an ornamental elephant on the Home Shopping Network.

His thoughts turned to Miss Williams. Her smile, how she seemed to avoid touching him, if she could. The look of surprise on her face when he would look up only to find her gaze upon him.

Maybe it’d be easier if he hadn’t had an inkling that his feelings weren’t one sided.

But it all added up. Why else would she have gone out of her way that day, weeks ago, to inform her that her plus one to her next major event was a family member?

Then again, it’s not like she had blatantly asked him to be her date.

He huffed.

He wouldn’t imagine Miss Williams ever doing such a thing.

The woman wouldn’t even call him by his first name.

If she was interested in him, she was determined to keep their interactions professional.

Thank God one of them was doing so.

Now, David just had to get on board.

No more daydreams.

No more night dreams.

No more wet dreams.

His head fell back against the cushions of his couch.

This was not going to work.

It’s not like they could actually date. Right?

Right?

Unless she was really interested in him, too.

But even if she was, such a relationship would be against the bank’s policy.

And it wouldn’t be fair to her, given she was technically his staff. And he was her boss. And that could look bad for her among her peers.

But if she wasn’t an employee…

David shook his head.

Overall, it would be stupid for either of them to jeopardize a good thing. Just stupid.

Right?

Shaking his head, he launched himself from the sofa and headed toward his bedroom.

It was time to get ready for the event.
