Hmmm, what to wear on a date at a penthouse, Jerrica thought to herself. This lovely beige dress with strappy heels will work. She assessed her image in the mirror and was pleased with the result. She finished up her hair and makeup and called Joshua. He arrived promptly at 6:30 and made his way through traffic to Jareth’s building. He assisted her out of the car and walked her to the door. “Thank you, Joshua, I’ll call you when I need you,” she said. “Have a good evening, Miss Betton,” he replied. The doorman tipped his hat to her as she entered.Jareth was waiting by the elevator. “Fancy meeting you here,” he joked. She giggled at his humor. He looked so dapper in his form fitting button up shirt and dress jeans. Pale blue was definitely his color. He took her hand as they entered the elevator. Her hand fit so perfectly and it felt so right to have her hand in his. “You look lovely tonight,” he whispered clos

Jerrica finished up her work but her mind was on Jareth and his father. She doesn’t know what state she would be in if something tragic happened to her father. He is her rock.She met Geena after work and she gave her the rundown of what has happened. “I’m so sorry, sweetie,” Geena said, rubbing her arm to comfort her. “I really empathize.” “Thank you so much. I’m tempted to message him but I don’t want to be a bother,” Jerrica said. “Showing that you’re thinking of him and offer support is not being a bother. Message him and see what he has to say.” Geena said. “Yeah, I guess you’re right. It couldn’t hurt,” Jerrica said. She pulled out her phone and started tapping.Jerrica: “Thinking of you. I hope things are improving.”Jareth: “I’m happy to hear from you. He’s injured and the doctors are doing their best. He&r

The next morning was packed with business meetings and when Jerrica went to her usual lunch spot a couple blocks away from her building, she could have sworn she saw the silver Audi from the other night down the street. Maybe I’m imagining things, she thought to herself.She finished up her lunch and made her way back to her office. Jareth will be there in twenty minutes to talk about the open position at Steele Logistics. Geena would be so happy and would love the employee ‘perks'. She’ll be meeting her after work for coffee. She was walking through the courtyard when she heard a heated argument between a man and a woman.“I told you to fucking stay away!”That sounded like Jareth! What the hell? She picked up her pace and made her way closer to the voices. She came into view of Jareth backing away from Gwen but she stayed hidden behind a tree.“But baby, I know we can make it work,” Gwen

Geena came strutting into her office a few hours later as Jerrica was reviewing documents. “Eeeek, you’ll never guess who’s going to come visit me at work tonight,” she squealed. Jerrica tapped her chin “Hmmm, a certain bodyguard comes to mind,” she replied. “Oh my God, he’s so dreamy. And that voice…I could listen to it all day and night then all day again,” she said with a voice that emulates the heart-eye emoji. “Okay, okay I get it,” said Jerrica. “Ready to go shopping?” “Does a Lamborghini purr like a kitten? Yes!” Geena exclaimed. “Just let me finish up then I’ll be ready,” she said as she tidied up her desk. She called Joshua to meet them out front. They made their way to elevator giggling like school girls. “I’m so happy for you. You’ve finally met someone on an equal playing field. You guys are going to rock the business world,” Geena said enthusiastically. “Thank you,” Jerrica replied. “We’ll see what the future holds.”Once they were in the car, Geena got b

They were sitting on the bench near Amigo's when a sleek, black Mercedes pulled up and the bodyguard/driver got out of the drivers seat. “Who is that?” gaped Geena. “He is fucking hot!” she squealed. “I’ve only met him once, I think his name is Taylor,” replied Jerrica in a hushed whisper. They stood up just as Taylor opened the passenger door so Jareth can get out. Taylor looked their way and immediately put on a smile. “Oh my God, I think I just heard my panties hit the ground and I’m not even on stage right now,” Geena giggled. “Shush!” Jerrica hissed. Jareth and Taylor walked over to them and immediately Jerrica got flutters in the depths of her stomach. He looked so dapper in his Armani suit. “Are you ladies ok?” he inquired. “Yes, we’re fine. Thank you for coming,” Jerrica replied. “This is my friend, Geena. She is the one I was thinking of bringing to the party,” she said. “Well, you’ve briefly met Taylor, “ Jareth said. And he turned to Taylor and he was ju

“Get the fuck off me now!” Jareth spit out at Gwen as he pushed her away. Gwen stumbled back, surprised at his outburst. “But Baby, it’s me. I’m back and I want to pick up where we left off,” she said in her poutiest voice. That voice used to be something he would look forward to when he was away on a business trip but now it just sounds whiny and pathetic. Taylor came running out of the restaurant. “Everything ok, sir?” he inquired. “I want her out of my sight,” Jareth said with venom in his voice. Gwen had a shocked look on her face. “But Baby….” “No, I’m not your “Baby" anymore. I told you I want nothing to do with you. Now leave!” he seethed. Taylor escorted her away from him. Jareth watched Jerrica's car turn the corner down the street. How much did she see? Will she answer his call later? He’s kicking himself for letting this happen. He had no idea Gwen was going to be at Mario’s for lunch. Just bad luck. “Once you’re done with h
