Finding Our Future Chapter 25
I think it looks good in here, Miss James," Grant spoke making her jump.
"What do you want?" She spoke taking a few steps back creating some space between them.
"Well I haven't seen or heard from you in about three weeks, so I just wanted to make sure you weren't avoiding me or us", he smiled walking a little closer to her.
"First off, let me be crystal clear, there will never be an us."
"Secondly, anything we do need to talk about will strictly be about work. Do I make myself clear?" She spoke being stern with him
"Mmm you're a little feisty there Hales. I like that in a lady," he whispered bringing his hand up to brush her cheek.
"Get your fucking hands off her," Nathan shouted coming into the room.
"Nathan...I...um.."
"Oh well if it isn't her little knight in shining armor."
Haley watched Nathan square up to him a little and saw the fire in his eyes.
"Nathan he isn't worth it. Come on, I'm actually finished with everything here anyways," she spoke trying to distract him from Grant.
"Yeah, listen to your little girlfriend Scott. Nice to see you finally fucked her." He spoke smirking between the pair.
"You know what Hales, you're right. Let's go get some lunch", he spoke grabbing her hand and walking out of the classroom

"I'm sorry,"
"I know you are, you just have to try and not let him get to you."
"Hales, I won't sit back and watch while the world hurts you. I'm going to protect you in any way I can from guys like him."
"Thank you, seriously though, he isn't worth it at all. I did enjoy seeing you get all protective over me though", she smirked winking at him.
"I thought you didn't like it when I got too protective over you", he challenged back at her with a smirk of his own.
"Usually I don't, but on this occasion it was a total turn on babe", she whispered rubbing her hand on his leg.
"Fuck Hales, you can't get me all worked up when I'm not going to be seeing you later," he groaned moving her hand away.
"Mmm well kissing is allowed here. If I remember correctly I thought you were one of the bosses," she spoke leaning in to kiss him.
"You truly don't play fair Haley James," he mumbled before pulling her onto his lap to straddle him.
Haley wrapped her arms around his neck playing with the small hairs at the nape of his neck. Their kisses started out slow and steady until she felt him slip a hand under her shirt and trace the outline of her tattoo. The pace of their kiss intensified as their tongues battled when the passion took over.
"Mmm Hales", he moaned against her mouth as she bit down on his lower lip, while gently rocking her hips against him.
"You're so fucking sexy," he whispered breaking away from the kiss and leaving a trail of open mouth butterfly kisses down her neck.
"I love you," she whispered out arching her back and lifting up slowly before rocking back down onto him.
"Fuck Hales," he groaned feeling himself growing harder by the moment. Letting one hand travelled up to squeeze her bra cover breasts.
"Mmm Nate", she mumbled losing all sense of her surroundings as he worked his hand over her perked up nipples.
"So Nathan about this...wow..." Clay spoke looking at the couple like they had literally being caught having sex by their parents for the first time.
"Clay, what the fuck man," he shouted annoyed that they had been interrupted.
"Don't get pissed at me dude, this is the office."
Haley quickly slid off his lap and got herself together before getting up.
"I'm just going to go," she whispered not making eye contact with either of them.
"Haley, wait a second," he spoke trying to stop her before she walked out the door.
"Honestly Nathan, its fine. Clay is right, this is your office. You guys have things to discuss before you close that big deal tonight. So you can just call me tomorrow," she spoke smiling softly between the pair.
"I'm sorry, I love you," he called after her not sure what to do without making the situation any worse.
Xxx
"Clay, did you really need to come in here man?" he spoke trying to remain calm.
"How the hell was I supposed to know that you both would be in here in the middle of the day, getting it on."
"We weren't getting it on, we were just kissing."
"Dude, if I walked in here five minutes later, there would have been a fairly good chance you both would have been topless."
"Whatever! Just let me get sorted here and I'll meet you in the board room."
"Nate, just be thankful for Haley's sake that it was me who walked in, and not one of the other team members."
"Yeah I guess you're right. About Haley, I would appreciate it if you didn't repeat this little episode to Quinn."
"Give me one good reason why?"
"Quinn already thinks Haley and I are having sex, which we aren't, but Haley is really stressed out about starting her new teaching job, and I don't need you or Quinn adding unnecessary drama surrounding our dating life into the mix please", he spoke pleading with him.
"I won't say anything for now. That's not to say I won't use it against you both at a later stage," he replied giving him a pat on the back.
"Thanks," Nathan replied before walking out of his office.

"Haley, what can I get you?" Karen asked as she approached the counter in the cafe.
"Hi Karen, can I have one serving of your mac and cheese."
Standing behind her Quinn held up two fingers signalling to Karen to give her a double portion.
"Anything else?"
"Umm a cheese burger with fries,"
Quinn signalled again to double up the order for her.
"Haley honey, are you okay?" She asked noticing she wasn't her normal cheery self.
"Yeah I'm good, it's just been a long intense morning," she replied with a small smile.
"Well can I get you something to drink to go with your food?"
"Yeah two of your chocolate milkshakes would be awesome. If I could have this to go that would be great,"
Four Quinn signalled for behind her again.
"Okay, if you want to take a seat while I get this made up and I will be right over to you," Karen spoke writing down the rest of the order.
"Thanks Karen," she commented before turning around literally bumping right into Quinn.
"Oh sorry Quinn," she spoke softly looking up at the person she bumped into.
"It's okay,"
"So, how much of my food order did you hear?" Haley asked as they walked over to the nearest empty table
"All of it," she answered watching her sister's facial expressions change from sadness to utter panicked.
"Umm well I was just really hungry today after a busy morning at school", she spoke trying to justify the situation.
"Let's just wait for the food and we can go back to my place and talk,".
"Here is your order Haley," Karen spoke interrupting the girls and placing the take out bags on the table.
"Karen, I didn't order this much food."
"I did and I know you're going to need it. I also know this appears to be guy pity food."
"How much do I owe you Karen?" She asked trying to ignore what Quinn had just said.
"Oh something tells me all this food is on Nathan," she spoke smiling at the girls.
"Thanks Karen," Quinn commented grabbing the bags as she exited the cafe with Haley.
Xxx
"Urgh I'm stuffed," Quinn spoke dramatically throwing herself back against the sofa.
"Well you shouldn't have ordered so much food then," Haley spoke throwing a few more fries at her.
"Shut up Haley Bob!"
"Whatever, Quinn," she spoke taking a sip of her milkshake.
"So are you going to tell me how the sex was? Or will we have to sit here so I can drag it out of you all night,"
Feeling her face go bright red she took another sip of her milkshake.
"Oh come on Hales. You're totally leaving me hanging here," she whined pushing her with her foot.
"It's good", she commented, not making eye contact with her.
"Good, that's all you're giving me? I tell you way more about my sex life," she commented sitting up again.
"That's your choice and by the way, while we are on the subject, you don't need to keep oversharing."
"It's my duty as a big sister to share my experiences with you, so you know I'm here to talk about any concerns you might have."
"I thank you for that, but honestly, I'm doing pretty well at figuring things out for myself Quinn."
"So you're really not going to tell me how the sex was,"
Haley looking over at her sister "Quinn I'm not trying to be vague or hide anything from you, but there really isn't much to tell. I'm actually still a virgin."
"What? I don't understand. What about the conversation the other day with Nathan on FaceTime."
"We just let you think it happened so that it would take the pressure off of us, but it just made me obsess about it even more", she confessed trying not to cry.
"Aww Haley Bob, don't cry," she whispered pulling her into a hug.
"Don't get me wrong I want him to be my first and for it to be special. I am getting closer to it happening. I just have this worry that I won't be what he wants," she expressed feelings very vulnerable over the situation.
"Well I know you bought some sexy underwear. Have you guys done anything that might make you feel more comfortable when you wear it?" She questioned her.
"God, I'm going to have to tell you aren't I," she groaned hiding her face in her hands.
"Did you let him do something naughty with you? She asked getting excited at her sister's expense
"Clay caught us making out in the office today and I was straddling him."
"Yes! I'm so proud of you Haley Bob", she spoke leaning over and hugging her.
"Quinn relax, it was so embarrassing,"
"Embarrassing is good Hales."
"It is?" She asked confused.
"Like you said earlier, it helps take the pressure off when you get to the more intimate moments."
"Trust me having intimacy together isn't the problem. My fear of wanting to have sex too soon is the problem," she groaned before taking a final sip of her milkshake.
"Did you do something on your date?"
"Let's just say I know what it feels like to be pleasured in more ways than one. This conversation is over,"
"Not fair Haley Bob. I'm definitely going to need more details now,"
"No, I have definitely shared way more then I wanted to."
"Fine, but just so you know, with everything you shared tonight, I don't think you have anything to worry about with Nathan. He's not going to rush you or pressure you, and when the time is right, it will be worth the wait."
