After that day in the hotel, things go back to normal.
Mostly.
Maxime and Cerise go dark and I don’t hear anything from them, which is actually not that unusual. They like to be aloof and distant then suddenly appear out of nowhere with a flurry of activity. I think it’s a negotiation strategy meant to knock people off balance.
It definitely works, or at least it would if I weren’t used to their shit already.
Paige forgives me for that blunder at the job site and things fall back into an easy rhythm. The tension between us simmers, building back up from the boiling point we hit that morning in the hotel, but not quite running over.
The biggest difference is I find myself going easy on her. Well, maybe not easy compared to other, normal human beings… but easy for me.
I don’t know why. I shouldn’t give her any favoritism or treat her any differently. I mean, yes, we fucked and it was fantastic, but there’s still nothing official going on between us. That was inevitable, but still, we’re both adults. We can go back to working together like normal.
But apparently not. Or at least I’m not capable of it.
And so I take it easy. I don’t push her. I don’t stress her. I make her do her job but I don’t give her tasks that are unreasonable or impossible just to see how she handles it.
I don’t need to see. I know she’ll be able to take care of it.
Maybe that’s the real difference. I trust her now for some reason. Something clicked inside of me and I simply trust that she’s competent and smart. I don’t need to test her anymore. I don’t need to push her.
It’s almost frustrating, actually. I like watching her squirm. I get satisfaction from it, from watching her get pissed off but unable to express herself for fear of getting something worse. I think she’s sexy when she’s holding back her anger and I want to see her like that all the time.
And I think she likes it too. I think that’s why she stayed with me for so long.
But we go a week like things are normal. The days continue, life moves on.
There’s flirting, of course. I mean, fuck, of course there’s flirting. I can’t get the memory of her body in that hotel room out of my mind. She’s gorgeous, sensual, intense. I can’t pretend like that didn’t happen.
But we don’t act on the flirtations. We keep a respectful distance…
Mostly, anyway. There are moments where we come closer than we need to, where I brush against her just to see her blush and shiver with delight.
The simmering is still there and the heat is still on, but I think we both know it’s better if we wait until it’s boiling again. Until the tension can’t be ignored.
Things change abruptly one week later when I get a call on my personal cell from a number I don’t recognize. Normally I’d ignore it, but it’s a foreign number, and it could be any one of my overseas partners.
