Rosa let out a soft groan as she laid her head down on her desk, her hair spilling onto it. She stared off into the distance, not really focusing on anything in particular as others walked by without care. The firm was between cases at the moment, the office just going through organizing and cleaning up old files.
"What's wrong, Rosa," Kiki asked as she walked up holding a stack of files close to her chest, adjusting her glasses on her nose, "You look… upset."
"Nothing. Don't worry about me," she replied, leaning up slowly and pushing her hair from her face. Glancing at her idle computer, she let out a sigh at seeing the work she had to do, knowing well that there was plenty left of it for the day. Stretching her neck and shoulders a bit, she flexed her fingers as she was about to type when a voice called out to her, causing her head to turn.
"Rosa, may I see you in my office please," Celestine Taylor called out, raising a thin brow at the young girl before slipping back into the designated room. Blinking slowly, the chocolate brunette locked her computer before standing up and walking to the office, closing the door behind her before sitting in front of her manager's desk. There was a moment of silence, the lull causing Rosa to fidget a bit while pushing her hair behind her ear, her hands settling in her lap. While looking over something on her computer, Celestine slid over a small bottle of water to offer a beverage. Without a word, Rosa nodded her head in thanks as she grabbed the drink, cracking it open and taking a sip. "So you seem… frustrated." All at once, the olive green eyed female felt herself choke, bringing her hand holding the bottle cap up to cover her mouth as she coughed. "That means yes to me."
"Celestine!"
"Are you about to tell me no?" This was accompanied with a brow raise and smirk.
"Wh-what are you… what's this about?" Rosa felt her face heat up, both in embarrassment and anger at the sudden intrusion into her personal space. "Did you really call me into your office to poke at me?"
"Yes," the lavender haired female said with a grin, glancing away from the screen at her flustered guest.
"W-why?!"
"Why, because it amuses me so. Has Artem been burying his head into his work again? I thought I had lightened his workload," she muttered, looking for something on her desk. Upon finding it, she slipped a folder out from the pile, flipping it open and glancing at what was inside.
"N-no, he hasn't. It…," Rosa placed the water down on the desk, moving her hands around as she seemed to try and find the right words that she wanted to use, "he… I mean, he's great. Things have been good between us and it's been over six months now but…," Once again, hand movement, "I just…"
"Is he not making a move?" Celestine looked over the folder, a grin visible in her eyes as she watched Rosa slump in the chair.
"Yeah… he's sweet and kind. He's always so attentive to me and watches out for me and…," Rosa looked as though she was going to explode from the seat, trying her best to explain herself without going too crazy. As if it took everything she had, she slumped once more in her chair, bringing a hand to her forehead. "If it was any other guy, I would be ok with it but… Artem and I have been working together a long time so I feel like we are ahead of the curve." She glanced up, giving a nervous look, "Am I being too needy too soon?"
"Absolutely not," Celestine laughed out, letting the folder fall onto the desktop. "Does he know this?"
"N-no, I… I mean… maybe I have hinted a little but… I want him to be the one to-" Rosa's words were cut off as she noticed the older woman simply stare at her, her arm resting on the desk with her chin resting on her palm. "Wh-what?"
"Let me let you in on a little secret, dearest," she said with a chuckle, a hint of mischief in her blue eyes. A bright eyed curious look came over the brunette, an irresistible urge to lean forward plaguing her. As she got closer, Celestine's grin only grew wider, "Dear Artem would have never pursued you in the first place if not for me shoving him."
"You mean…"
"He was so nervous to talk to you about anything related to courting you that I borderline had to hold his hand," she concluded, leaning back and looking at the folder's contents once more, "so if I was going to suggest anything," she picked up a pen to make some marks on the papers, "I think it's going to take you for the step that you are looking for." Blinking heavily, Rosa leaned up and back into her chair, her thoughts going over everything that the said male had done to ask her to be his girlfriend. "Trust me, regardless of how obvious you make it seem to the rest of us…" This had olive green eyes locking onto the older woman, Rosa's face heating up at the thought that those around her were aware or had some clue as to what was the matter with her, "...he is still not going to get the hint." Another lull of silence came over the office, the owner of the space simply reading something while the other thought over everything.
Could I actually do it though? I wonder if maybe he just needs that little spark to get him going… I was hoping he would be forward like that time he was drunk. She bit her lip, looking off to the side, I hope alcohol isn't the only reason he does anything close to that…
"In any case, we have a meeting right now," Celestine said, watching the young lady before her come back to the real world, "I'll meet you in the conference room. Tell who you can and I'll meet you there." Taking the water that was given to her at the start, Rosa stood from her seat and nodded an understanding to her before walking out. As she closed the door, she found herself looking down at the bottle as a thought finally crossed her mind now that she wasn't being pressed for such an uncomfortable topic.
"She gave me this to see my reaction to her damn question," she muttered, feeling silly and as though she was tricked.
As the present members of Themis Law Firm settled into the conference room, Celestine asked that the door be closed behind the last person. Sitting down near the lavender haired female, Rosa gave a soft glare at the woman as she finished off her water as though to tell her that she was onto her. Seeing the look she was giving, Celestine merely gave a smirk before seeing Artem enter and close the door. Finding a seat across from Rosa, he gave her a gentle smile, brushing his hair out of his eyes before adjusting his suit coat while settling into his chair.
"How is everyone this evening," Celestine started, hearing a bit of muttering here and there. She could tell they were waiting for the work whistle, wanting to go home for the day. "I wanted to go over our numbers for this quarter, what we are looking forward to, and what we can do to get more clients." Upon finishing the bottle, Rosa twisted the top back on and set it on the table, staring at it a moment before finally looking through it to see her boyfriend. He seemed to have sensed her looking, his electric blue eyes shifting over, giving her another smile.
So I should give him a push, huh, she thought, returning the smile with a light nod. Crossing her legs, she started twisting her foot around, her heel hanging by her toes as she listened. Things froze for a moment when a thud sounded, the brunette mumbling an apology while explaining her heel fell. Staring at her nylon covered foot for a moment, Rosa tilted her head before looking at the male across from her, an idea worming its way into her mind. Trying to be as subtle as she could, Rosa moved her seat to be closer to the table, leaning her elbows on it as she continued listening and paying attention to Celestine as she moved through her chart.
Seems as if things are better since Rosa and I took on that case earlier this month, Artem thought to himself as he tapped his index finger against the tabletop lightly, noticing that his girlfriend was shifting around in the corner of his gaze. He was about to cut in and add to something that the lavender haired female had said when something touched the inside of his thigh, causing him to stiffen in his chair and freeze. What the- He leaned back just enough to see under the table, seeing a small clothed foot finding its way into his lap. Instantly, his eyes found their way across, meeting an almost devilish look from his attacker. It took everything in him to keep still, trying his best to make sure that his face didn't give anything away to those around him. A faint noise caught his attention, the world deafening around him for only a moment.
"Artem." His head snapped towards Celestine, seeing her giving him a strange look. She had to admit, the last person she expected to be not paying attention was him. However, the slightest hint of a blush crept over his face, something that she most certainly did not miss.
"Y-yes," he replied, coughing a bit before straightening up. Regardless of what was going on, Rosa's foot continued to dance in his lap, caressing him through his pants. He shot her a look once Celestine turned away, greeted by only a smirk. What is she thinking?!
He is so cute. Rosa pressed her toes against him, content at feeling a stiffness starting to fight against her. Watching him for more reactions, she noticed that he began tugging at his tie a bit while making a fist with his other hand, the knuckles growing white from how hard he was squeezing. It was different for her to see him like this, amusingly uncomfortable. She could feel him shift a bit, only brushing himself against her foot even more as he tried easing the growing tension that was starting to bother him.
"Artem, could you give those tips that we talked about," Celestine said as she looked at the male. He didn't seem to hear her, fully looking at Rosa and trying to mouth something when he was addressed again. Upon finally hearing her, he jolted up in his seat, his face heating up more before he cleared his throat and adjusted his tie.
"Ah, yes. I'm sorry," he mumbled, clearing his throat again. Carefully standing up, he tried to be as subtle as possible in making his stiffening erection less visible. Moving to where Ms. Taylor just was, he picked up a folder that was near the other files, going over the contents with practiced ease. As he spoke, Celestine couldn't help leaning over and whispering to the brunette.
"Something going on here," she asked, grinning to Rosa who simply leaned back in her seat and tapped her foot in the air.
"Just… pushing him… like you suggested," she replied, giving a smile. The older woman raised a thin brow, smirking to herself. She certainly hadn't expected things to get moving right away but she was far too amused to care. The brunette could feel her pulse in her throat, the adrenaline from not only doing something like this with her love interest but to do it when all the others in the firm were there was thrilling. If she was to guess, however, it was because of how simple it was. If it were anything else too brazen, she might have fainted from being so flustered, yet excited. Something she was thinking that Artem might suffer from at the moment. She turned her gaze over to the male that was speaking, noticing him tugging a bit at his tie when he noticed her looking.
"Just be sure that the client reads through everything before they agree," Artem finished off, looking to his manager to signal that he was done. Giving a wink, Celestine climbed out of her seat, thanking Artem for his input. Moving to the front of the room once more, she drew the group's attention to the chart she had set up, going over the statistics. As he moved back to his seat, the young male found himself freezing, turning a nervous gaze to his girlfriend to find her staring at him. She watched him, her smile growing wider as he visibly gulped before sitting. Once again, her foot crept up his leg, feeling him go tense again. What has gotten into her?!
Hmm, sounds like the meeting is almost over. Time to go in for the kill, Rosa thought, biting her lip a bit before inching up his thigh.
"Now, I know that Boldr gives us all problems," came Celestine's voice over everything, the one thing that Artem was trying to focus on as he brought a hand to his forehead, "but they certainly prove to be stiff competition." Leaning up fast, the male couldn't stop himself from looking at his manager with wild eyes. He felt as though his face could raise the temperature of the room alone, knowing well that he was blushing like a fool. "Things might be hard, but we can get through this and make a name for ourselves. Be sure to get out there and find more clients."
What the hell is going on?! Artem's thoughts were cut off as he felt Rosa's foot caress him, trying his best to suppress a groan as he covered his face by placing his hand on his forehead again. He tried keeping his breathing under control, glancing around the room from his hiding place to make sure no one else was paying him any mind. Thanks to his reputation in the firm, a lot of people didn't bother him, fearful of his crazy work ethic.
"Well, that finishes off the meeting, hope you all have an eventful weekend," Celestine concluded with a wink to no one in particular, starting to gather her files and papers as the group began leaving for the day. Biting his lip hard, Artem felt himself shaking at trying to keep from reacting to feeling Rosa rub him. His now rock solid shaft was aching, throbbing from the attention it was getting. With a quick glance at Celestine to make sure she was looking at something else, Artem slid his chair back and popped out of his seat, walking out swiftly. The sudden movement startled the brunette, her olive green eyes wide as she watched her boyfriend escape from the conference room. Blinking slowly at his hasty retreat, Rosa found herself looking over at Celestine at hearing her light laugh. Seeing her manager wink, the brunette felt her face heat up before standing and smoothing out her skirt before heading out after him.
"Rosa!" As she left the conference room, she was greeted by Kiki, a nervous look on her face as she fixed her glasses on the bridge of her nose, "I just saw Mr. Wing rush by! Is he ok?"
"O-oh, yeah, I'll be sure to check on him," she murmured, pushing her hair behind her ear. There was a small pause of silence, the olive green eyed green seeing Kiki chew on her lip in thought.
"Well, ok. You have a nice weekend then," she finally said, giving a smile and wave before heading to her desk to drop off a few folders before preparing to leave. Taking a quick glance around, it seemed as if most had already jumped ship, wanting to start their weekends as soon as possible. Turning her gaze to where his office was, Rosa gave a soft smile before slowly walking towards it.
Just on the other side of the door, Artem leaned his back up against it, his heart pounding in his chest as he tried breathing deep. He was not sure what it was that had gotten into Rosa but to have it appear in the middle of that meeting had thrown him off. He found himself taking off his suit jacket from feeling too warm, walking over to his desk to drape it over the back of the chair. Tugging his tie a little, he undid the top button before pulling the seat out and slumping into it.
That… she… Peering down, he glared lightly at the hard-on that was still rubbing against his suit pants. The faint click of the door opening had him tensing, his head snapping up to see the cause of his current predicament closing the door behind her quietly. Flustered by her sudden intrusion, the male attorney began sorting the papers on his desk to busy himself, tucking them into his inbox in the corner.
"Hello, Artem," she murmured softly, a grin tugging at the corner of her lip. She could still see the blush on his cheeks, his ears a bright crimson. Still all uncomfortable, I see.
"Rosa," he said simply, clearing his throat and trying to act normal. Walking up slowly, she pulled her suit jacket off and draped it over the arm of the chair before his desk. Turning towards him, she leaned on the desk with her arms, smiling at him.
"Everything ok?"
Why do I feel like you are just toying with me? I blame Marius for this… Glancing up from organizing his desk, he observed her for a moment. Her olive green eyes were fixed on him, a sort of glint hiding within them that could be only described as mischievous. Her hair fell into her face, framing it as she tilted her head, his silence making her curious. The disappearing light from the evening sun gave her a bit of a glow, the effect making her appear angelic. "Yes," he breathed out, "I'm just… fine." The way he replied had her blinking heavily, his almost dreamlike tone throwing her off. She thought that maybe she had him stunned, experiencing a sort of giddy feeling at having him in the palm of her hand. However, the look in his eyes, how he smiled at her… suddenly she was in his. It made it all the more shocking when he suddenly got up and leaned forward, grasping her face with one hand as he leaned over the desk, capturing her lips in a soft kiss. Thanks to her also leaning forward, he was able to do this. However, it wasn't enough. Once he pulled away and saw her dazed look, Artem made his way around before grabbing her at her waist, pulling her in and kissing her once more. There was more force in this one, a hunger clear as he trapped her between himself and the desk. Rosa could feel her heart hammering in her chest, the feel of his hands on her waist, in her hair giving her chills. As he pulled away from her, she could almost see his eyes clearing, as though the spell of lust was breaking as he slowly leaned up.
Oh no, you don't, she thought as she grabbed his tie, yanking him towards her to crash their lips together again, her knee rubbing between his legs. Wrapping her arms around his neck, Rosa felt herself being pushed back as Artem's arm swept his desk clear, the noises of items and papers scattering a dull thrum in the heat of the moment. Once more, a fire was lit within him as he sat her on the edge of the desk, his tongue gliding across her lip as he searched to deepen the kiss. As Rosa opened her mouth for him, a low moan escaped her, only fueling Artem more as he let his broad hands wander her form. Finding the zipper on her skirt, he pulled back a second to see the clouded look in her eyes. Making short work of the garment and letting it drop to the floor, he moved back to kiss her again. As they broke away from each other, they panted for breath, a thin string of saliva between them.
"We… shouldn't… be doing this here," he managed out, eyes hazy with desire as he leaned over her. While he might have said that, he still proceeded to remove his tie.
"Everyone is gone for the weekend," Rosa said hastily, helping him unbutton his shirt. As the cool air touched his chest, the blue eyed male leaned forward to capture her lips once more, grinding his hips against her as he groaned softly. "A-Artem…" Bringing a hand up to caress her cheek, he dragged it down her neck before unbuttoning her blouse, the process slow with one hand. When it was nearly undone, he stopped everything else to pull open her shirt, making surprising quick work of the bra before gripping her left breast as he took her other into his mouth, swirling his tongue around her nipple. Switching places with his hand, he nipped at the other, hearing her mewl softly. After some time, he moved away from her a bit, the female beneath him letting out a whimper at the lack of warmth. His gaze swept over her form, taking in the sight of her sprawled on his now messy desk, her lips a bit puffy from their rough kissing, her hair tousled about. Narrowing his eyes at the sight of her nylons, he reached and grabbed fistfuls of it, ripping it to expose her panties. "W-what are-"
"I'll buy you new ones," he mumbled before kissing her again.
I can't believe I got him this bad! All thoughts flew from her as she felt his long fingers caressing her through her panties, a sensation causing her to gasp against his lips. Leaning on her elbows, Rosa tilted her head back as she whimpered his name, feeling the pressure of his fingers increase. Biting his lip, Artem felt a bit nervous knowing that while he had read and seen enough to have an idea what to do, this was all new to him. The strain in his pants was overriding any sort of doubt though, wanting to find some relief for this aching. Sliding the cloth over, Artem could feel how wet she was, his fingers drenched in no time as he gently rubbed her. Alternating between that and slipping inside, he leaned down to swallow her moans, kissing her again as he brought his other hand through her hair. As soon as he was close enough, Rosa had grabbed fistfuls of his open shirt, gasping and mewling when she could, her body moving on its own to grind against his hand. Watching her brow furrow, Artem enjoyed every squeak and moan she let out, lightly kissing her jaw and ear until he felt her tense, helping her ride her orgasm as he made her stay quiet, nipping at her lip. Seeing her come undone sent a chill down his spine, his erection aching behind the zipper of his pants. Still, he didn't think that he should go any further, a grip on reality holding him.
"You ok," he whispered, watching her eyes focus on him once more.
"Please," she begged, her voice heavy with need.
"Rosa, I-"
"Artem, please… I want you. Also," she leaned up a bit, looking down her body to try and see him over the edge, "you must be hurting." Moving her leg a bit, she managed to caress him again through his pants, feeling his hard-on. He let out a small hiss, gritting his teeth before trying to push it away and look into her eyes.
"I'm fine. Besides, I don't even have-"
"It's ok, Artem," she whispered, kissing him softly, her eyes half lidded, "Please." She knew in her heart if she didn't go for it now, he'd probably never try anything like this with her again.
Damnit, moving back a bit, Artem helped tug her panties off, tossing them forgotten on the floor with her skirt and his tie before unbuckling his pants, feeling tension ease as he freed himself from his soaking confines. Playing with her had him dripping like crazy, his loins clearly hungry for the female before him. He just about lost it when he peered up to see Rosa watching him intently, biting her bottom lip at the sight of him. He responded by rubbing himself against her as he held her thigh up, mixing his precum with her fluids and enjoying the sensation and heat. Once he felt it was enough, he glanced at her one more time before lining himself with her entrance, nudging the tip in slowly. Regardless of how driven they were by lust, he didn't want to hurt her in any way. Between her teasing him, the torment he endured until now… Artem was at his limit. So when he finally slipped inside to the hilt, he felt himself let out the breath he was holding, groaning loudly as he leaned over her. "Y-you ok?"
"Y-yeah," she moaned out, wrapping her legs around him and shifting on the desktop a bit. There was a lull between them, clearly giving Rosa time to adjust, "you can move." Placing his hands on either side of her, Artem pulled out halfway to thrust back in, hearing her gasp slightly before moaning low. Rosa was still sensitive from her orgasm, the feeling of him filling her delightful and making her spasm. Arching her back, she clutched at his shirt, mewling as he thrusted into her faster.
"You're so cute," he managed out, his hair sticking to his forehead, breathing ragged as he moved. She noticed him sort of flinch, a smile on his face, "Liked hearing that, did you?" He watched in amusement as she gave in a confused expression, leaning down to get closer, "You're squeezing me…" Rosa began sputtering as her face heated up more, her eyes shifting away until a hard thrust from the blue eyed male had her moaning and tilting her head back. With her neck exposed, he leaned down and licked it before kissing her once more. Leaning up, he watched as each thrust of his hips made her breasts bounce, finding himself bending down to clamp his mouth over the right one. The desk shook with each thrust, shifting ever so slightly. "Rosa, I…" He could feel himself slipping to the edge, his mind trying to at least keep some sense in the haze of lust that was driving him.
"Come inside, Artem," she pleaded, looking up at him. He felt a shudder as he grit his teeth, feeling himself fall over the edge as he filled her warmth with his seed. She could feel him pulsing, the sensation along with him holding her making her heart pound against her chest. Bringing a hand up, she pushed his bangs aside, hearing him attempting to catch his breath. Leaning over her, Artem hugged her close, his breath tickling her ear as he nuzzled her.
"Well," he started softly, causing Rosa to look to her side in an attempt at looking at him, "I won't look at my desk the same again…" Biting her lip for only a second, gentle laughter bubbled from Rosa, only serving to make the male smile.
Outside, Celestine twirled her keys around her index finger as she pulled her vibrating phone from her purse. A smile was on her face as she pressed the talk button, bringing it up to her ear as she made it to her car.
"Hi, honey. Yes, on my way home now. Just had a little something to confirm in the office."
