CHAPTER 19

Jack was standing very close to Ellie in his office.

‘Ellie,’ he said, ‘we have a real problem with the ad. The client has decided that they don’t want knickers any more. They want model aeroplanes with huge wings.’

He was rubbing her arm with his hand. ‘You have to go to the model-makers and get them to make some planes.’

‘Planes, Jack? But none of the song will make sense,’ Ellie said, starting to cry. ‘I’ll have to write a new song and get new music and I can’t because I kissed Dave and now I wish I hadn’t.’

‘What?’ snarled Jack. ‘You were kissing someone else?’ He grabbed her by both arms, pulling her close. ‘You know that’s wrong. You know it’s in your contract that you have to kiss me.’ He moved his mouth to her ear and whispered, ‘What’s wrong with me? Don’t I turn you on enough yet?’

‘No, Jack … yes … I,’ she tried to say, but he was looking at her with such intensity that she took his face in both her hands and started to kiss him. Deep, searching kisses. She could feel his stubble on the palms of her hands.

They were down on the floor now under his desk, his hands undoing the buttons of her blouse, and then she felt his hot mouth on her nipple, hot even through the material of her bra.

‘Oh God, Jack, yes … yes,’ she said, but he probably couldn’t hear her over the sound of somebody hammering on the office door.

A voice shouted, ‘Ellie dear, I heard the most dreadful thump. You haven’t hurt yourself, have you?’

Jack disappeared and Ellie found herself face to face with a pair of shoes. She was lying on the rug by her bed. Several bits of her hurt.

‘Ellie dear?’ shouted Edith through the bedroom door.

Ellie sat up slowly. ‘No harm done, Edith. I think I must have fallen out of bed. I had a bad dream, that’s all. Sorry.’

Edith muttered something and went downstairs, and Ellie hauled herself back into bed and lay there looking at the ceiling.

Sleep wouldn’t come again, though, no matter how hard she tried. Jack wasn’t just disturbing her days; he was prowling through her dreams with his glittering, dangerous looks. She was being stalked and there were only two things she could do about it.

One was too embarrassing even to think about, and the other would involve leaving an agency she liked and people she had grown to love. She couldn’t go on much longer like this, though, acting like some schoolgirl. Perhaps she had to face the fact that it was time for a move. Once the knickers ad was on TV, she and Lesley were bound to be more in demand.

She climbed out of bed, got dressed and went and had a look at the ‘Situations Vacant’ in her copy of Ad Infinitum.
