Chapter 18 - Jane

The twenty minutes took forever to go past, but when they were up I suddenly wished I had more time and I hoped I wasn’t going to regret saying yes to Sebastian’s offer. It’s just a business meeting and a small lunch, I told myself over and over again. I didn’t understand why I felt so confused anyway – I certainly did NOT want to be with Sebastian and I was not looking for a relationship. There was no way that I was even close to ready for such a thing. I wondered briefly if it were because I had been in a relationship for such a long time and had forgotten what it was like to flirt with other men. If so, then my feelings were not real at all. I was simply excited at the prospect of another man finding me attractive. Although I couldn’t quite imagine that he was actually attracted to me. Abbie had pointed out a few of the girls that he had been with and I remembered clearly the girl with the short dress that had come to see him. He was the type of guy that liked models on his arm – not ordinary woman like me. I had a feeling that he probably wanted to see how far he could push me. This infuriated me. Also, Justin had proven that he had never been into me in the first place – his eyes were always on someone else – and this had made me think that perhaps no man would ever truly be interested in me ever again. This didn’t infuriate me. It saddened me. I knew that I didn’t have Danielle’s long legs. Or a face that didn’t need makeup to look pretty. I knew that I was too short. And too plain. And too normal. And yet… I hadn’t imagined that Sebastian had flirted with me. Had I?

Again, I was grateful that Abbie wasn’t around to see me go into his office for lunch. I tried walking very softly so that Michael wouldn’t notice me but he had his head down and looked very heavily involved with his phone so I figured I was safe on that bet. Although I wasn’t sure why I was suddenly so ashamed at going to see Sebastian. He was my boss after all. I knocked.

“Come in.” His voice was a sing song, the melody beckoning me.

I opened the door and walked in. “I’m here for our meeting.” I said although the minute I said the word meeting it sounded as if it had a double meaning. I cringed and hoped he hadn’t noticed.

“Great! Glad I could twist your arm. Close the door behind you so that we don’t get people coming in and stealing our lunch!”

I closed the door and then sat opposite him. I was well aware that only a few days ago I had sat across from him a nervous wreck after discovering the guy that I had spilled coffee all over was also my boss.
