She walked in, everyone seemingly didn't notice her arrival. They were standing in clusters. Most of them in their usual groups. She wasn't trying to make a grand entrance of anything, she was just hoping that she would at least be acknowledged. She skimmed her way on the outward corners of the restaurant, ending up at the table full of drinks. That's when she felt the stare of someone else, glancing over she saw him. He had invited her to lunch before. She remembered peering over her stacks of paperwork to say she was too busy. He was the usual deadly combination of tall, dark and handsome. He has been working here for five years, the top of his class and the top of the firm. His interest in her had not been anything in her mind. He could get anyone he wanted. Not many girls would turn down a date with such a man. The good looking, rich one are usually a hard find. She giggled to herself at the pure thought that he was even looking at her. "Nice of you to leave the stacks of paperwork and come mingle with us humans," he said with a small smile on his face. "I could say the same but you seem to somehow have all the time in the world to be social,"she said back. She grabbed her drink and headed back to a table close to the back. He followed her, seemingly to her surprise. Something in her didn't understand why he'd be interested in her besides the pure fact that she had always been to busy for him before. She smiled to herself as the talked the usual small talk and glasses of wine went down like water. Part of her was more than amused by this new found attention. A slow song came on overhead and they danced quietly through the rest of the night. Unaware of what would happen next.
To be continued....
