"So what are ya going to say to her?" Natalie asked, carefully focusing on the road ahead.
Monk stared at her and turned his attention back to the road, "I…. don't know."
Natalie looked at him dubiously and shook her head, "Aren't you going to take her back. I mean you need her…"
"But what about you?"
Natalie was astonished by his statement, "Wait, you mean you actually took an extra second to care about somebody but yourself. Maybe there is hope for you, Mr. Monk." She smiled and thought about it, "It's not my decision, go with what feels right."
A few moments of silence lingered when Monk had an idea…
"Can I have two assistants?" Monk asked with a smile.
Natalie looked at him as if he had two heads, "No…no no no no no…. I do not want to work with her, I mean c'mon…. One is enough…."
"But…. It will be…. fun."
"Fun? With you? And Her? No I don't think so."
"Oh."
"Just fire me okay, please, I can find other jobs, it'll make your life easier, and mine."
"Okay, Natalie….I'm going to have to let you go."
"Big surprise," she replied sarcastically.
Natalie pulled up the driveway and came to a stop, "What are you waiting for…go…"
Monk used his sleeve to open the door and got out. The wind blew fiercely as he walked up the pathway to her house. Carefully, he knocked exactly three times.
Back in the car Natalie tried to gather her feelings, she did not know why, but somehow, she did not want to get a new job….
Benjy opened the door a few seconds later, with a big smile on his face.
"Hi Mr. Monk!" he said.
"Benjy…. Hello. It's nice to see you again…. How have you been?"
"I'm good…yester…."
He got cut off by Monk interrupting him, "Yes…. that's great is your mom home?"
Benjy laughed and let him in, "She's upstairs getting ready for bed."
Monk quickly walked up the short flight of stairs that led to her bedroom and carefully peeked through the crack in the door. He saw her standing in front of the mirror, sighing at the way she looked.
She was about to put on her nightclothes, which he didn't notice at the moment. He pushed open the door and to his surprise, she was shirtless.
Normally in those circumstances he would have run away, maybe even of cried, but he just couldn't stop staring. Her perfect figure captured his eyes and lost him in her world…
"Adrian! Oh my God!" She quickly put her shirt back on and her cheeks turned bright red, "What are you doing here?"
He snapped out of his gaze and stared at her, her eyes were as blue as water and her hair fell in perfect ringlets. He stepped a little bit closer to her and cleared his throat.
"Come back."
"What?" She asked looking at him confused.
"I know before I said Natalie needed this job…. but we worked it out. Come back, please?"
Sharona looked at him happily. A bunch of emotions rushed through her at that very moment, happiness, proudness, excitedness. You name it; she felt it, "Really…. Adrian…I don't know what to say…" She put her hand on his check and the other on his shoulder.
He looked at her with that crazy look that Natalie had given him earlier.
"Sharona…what are you…"
"Shhhh…" she whispered. She leaned in to kiss him, tenderly on the lips.
His heart fluttered, and stopped momentarily, yet he couldn't pull away and neither could she. She moved both of her arms to his shoulders and deepened the kiss, not knowing why, it just felt right.
He wrapped his arms around the back of her and ended the kiss. Quickly stepping away she stood back embarrassed.
"Adrian…I'm sorry…I…"
He looked at her and did not know what to say or do, so he walked away, still feeling the tingle on his lips.
Sharona sighed knowing she had just screwed everything up between them, her job and their friendship.
"Adrian…. wait!"
She followed him into the living room; he turned around and breathed deeply.
"I don't know what came over me, I was just excited…I'm sorry."
He nodded and walked out to the car, with Natalie still waiting in it.
Sharona decided not to follow, to give him some time to cool off maybe.
'I'm still going back tomorrow,' she thought to herself and smiled. At least she had her job back.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Monk opened the car door and took a seat.
"How'd it go?" Natalie asked hesitantly.
Monk stared straight ahead and blinked a few times.
"She…. she…she…"
"She what Mr. Monk?"
"She…. she…um…. she."
"What!"
"Kissed me."
Natalie's eyes opened widely and her mouth hung open, "She kissed you?"
Monk nodded. Natalie smiled, "Oh my God, I can't believe it. I mean, have you ever kissed someone before?" She asked sarcastically.
"Yes, in fact I had a wife."
"Did you like it?"
"Like my wife?"
"No….the kiss." Natalie asked, a little jealous.
Monk looked at her once again as if she was crazy, "Yes."
She smiled knowingly and saw Sharona staring out the window at them, she started the car and looked over at him once again, a big-ass smile on his face.
