Guarding His Heart

“Lisa.” I sighed. “I’m not going to have sex with him.”

“Hey, I don’t consider oral, sex either.”

“Lisa.”

“I mean yeah, its called o**l s*x, but it’s not really sex is it? Nothing’s going inside of you.” She paused. “Oops, I guess his tongue is, huh? I guess that is sex.”

“Lisa! Enough!” I could feel my body growing warm. “There is going to be no sex of any kind. No oral, no anal, no regular, no nothing.”

“Well, that’s boring.”

“No, it’s not.”

“I think that’s a waste of a slutty outfit.”

“Stop calling it slutty.”

“Would you rather I call you slutty?”

“No.” I stared at myself and knew I would call myself a slut if I saw myself somewhere. “I’m going now.”

“Have fun with your no sex adventure.”

“Have fun with trashy TV and Fakio.”

“Will do. Love you. Call me tomorrow.”

“Will do. Bye.” I hung up and walked back into the bedroom and sat on the bed. Was I really prepared to do this? I knew that walking into Leo’s room dressed as a slutty nurse would change the whole dynamic in our relationship. It would go from innocent flirting to something more explosive. There was no way that he’d think it was just a joke. Not after today. Not after he’d given up a huge deal for me. Because essentially that was what he’d done. He’d walked away from a deal to defend my honor, even though he’d tried to warn me away in the first place. I’d been touched and I’d felt ashamed of myself for automatically assuming the worst of him when he’d only been trying to protect me. I should have known that Amber was up to something when she kept asking me where in LA, Leo lived and if he knew any directors.

Beep Beep. I grabbed my phone and sat up to see the message.

“What you doing?” It was Leo.

“Just thinking and feeling bad.”

“I hope it’s not about today.”

“Of course it is.”

“Don’t worry about it.”

“I feel bad.”

“Do you want to have a threesome with Rob and Amber?”

“Hell no.”

“Then don’t feel bad. :).”

“What are you doing?”

“Wondering when you’re going to come by so we can go out.”

“I was thinking we could just watch a movie on-demand.”

“Together or separately?”

“Together.”

“That’s what I like to hear.”

“Awesome.”

“So we’re planning on watching multiple movies? It’s still noon.”

“Oh yeah. I forgot the time.”

“So are you still coming over?”

“I’ll be there in a minute.”

I jumped off the bed and walked to the door and stopped. Was I crazy? What was I doing? This was a rather bold move to make. A move I wasn’t even sure I had fully thought through. This was the man that had stolen my job. This was the man had taken away my new car and new apartment.

“He’s also the one that saved you, Hannah.” I reminded myself as I thought about how he’d protected me that morning. He had basically ruined his career for me. I wasn’t sure why I was fighting my attraction towards him. What did I have to lose? I opened the door and hurried through it quickly and knocked on his door.

“That was longer than a minute.” He said as he opened the door with a laugh. I saw his jaw drop as he stared at me. “Hannah?” He gazed at in shock as he gazed at me with wide eyes. “Wow you look hot.”

“Like my outfit?” I smiled. “It’s my nurse’s outfit.”

“Whoa, yeah I like it.” He nodded and I saw his eyes fall to my br**sts.

“I figured seeing as you asked me to wear one and you were so nice to me today...” My voice trailed off. Who was I kidding? I just wanted to turn him on.

“Wow. I also like native Hawaiian outfits.” He grinned.

“That won’t be happening.” I laughed and then just stood there awkwardly. I had no idea what to do next.

“Do you want to check my temperature?”

“Do you have a fever?”

“I’m not sure.” He made a face. “I’ve been feeling a bit sickly.”

“Well we can’t have that, can we?” I stared at him in his white t-shirt and swallowed. “Where are you feeling sick?”

“All over, nurse.” He groaned. “I need someone to tend to me.”

“I think I can tend to you.” I walked over to him and touched his forehead with the back of my hand. “You feel warm. Maybe you should take your t-shirt off?”

“Should I take anything else off, nurse?” He grinned as he yanked his top off.

“I don’t think so.” I shook my head and smiled slightly as I stared at his chest. I moved my hand down to his abs and ran my fingers down his six pack.

“That feels good, nurse.” He grinned.

“You don’t look very sick, Sir.”

“Oh, I’m so sick.” He pouted his lips and leaned forward. “I heard you can tell if I have a temperature by kissing me.”

“That won’t be necessary.” I shook my head and stepped back, suddenly feeling overwhelmed. What was I doing playing the role of a nurse to my new boss. The new boss, I still disliked, though he wasn’t as bad as I’d originally thought he was.
