"Sir," she smiled affectionately, as she walked into the room and curtseyed gently to show her respect and appreciation. "I've been thinking about you and wondering how you are?"
"Hey you," he responded, looking up wearily from the paperwork on his desk and trying to respond in kind, his forced smile looking extremely wan. She approached him cautiously, unsure of his mood.
"I'm sorry to see that you look rather overworked, sir."
"Not as sorry as I am," he said putting his pen down and considering her appreciatively.
"Do you have no room for the realms of the sensational then?"
"Not really right now and that's a shame."
"They do say that a little shame never did anyone too much bad."
"I suppose that really depends on what the shame is for."
"True enough, though does not the duration of the shame have a role to play, sir?"
"Explain yourself pet."
"Well. Telling a friend she reminded me of Godzilla was my second biggest shame this week. It didn't last too long."
"Why not?"
"I found another shame to occupy me."
"Do tell?"
"I found myself falling about laughing helplessly afterwards."
"Did you indeed?"
"Yes sir. That was my biggest shame."
"You are such a silly slut, girl."
"It was just a moment of half-remembered silliness to lighten your frown."
"Indeed"
"You approve?"
"I do," he nodded and looked back down at the papers before him.
"Am I disturbing your peace?"
"No. You are a most welcome distraction."
"I wouldn't want to get in the way of your many exciting exploits this afternoon."
"I doubt that I will realise many," he laughed.
"Then, allow me to exaggerate then, if only to praise you."
"Alright, I can certainly do that."
"That's most obliging of you, sir"
"Of course."
"Not necessarily - I would never take your affability for granted."
He grunted and picked up his pen to cross through a line of thinly spaced verbiage.
"Nor would I take your grunting for affability, come to think of it," she beamed at him and sat on the corner of his desk, looking down at him as he continued to work on half-heartedly.
"What do you mean by that, girl?"
"Pay no mind to me, sir. I'm just being playful to help your afternoon progress with greater Γ©lan in the hope that you may be able to slay more dragons as a result."
"It's true that I do have a few chores that need doing."
"If you leave them, they might get done all by themselves, like the good little creatures they are."
"Oh don't I wish!"
"Wishes do sometimes come true."
"I doubt the one in my head right now will though."
"A mission impossible before you head for your local bar for liquid refreshment and Friday evening entertainment?"
"Perhaps," he shrugged
"Best to delay it: you should never try to do impossible things after luncheon."
"Why ever not?"
"It may be bad for the indigestion," she giggled softly.
"I'll keep that in mind," he grinned back at her.
"You do that sir. I wouldn't want you throwing up the contents of that soup tureen all over the shop."
"You offer me such delectable images to conjure with," he sighed unhappily, crossing through another set of figures.
"Perhaps you should be left to engage with your demons, sir," she said thoughtfully and made to remove herself from the corner of his desk.
"Which demons are you referring to?"
"Your many vexatious missions and chores."
"I'll do my best to get them done in due course."
"I have every faith in you, sir."
"I'm glad someone does."
"You sound slightly down?"
"A little"
"Is there anything I can do to raise your spirits?"
"I really don't know," he shrugged. "I don't want to trouble you."
"It really is no trouble. It pleases me to be of service to you, should you so desire it."
"That's very generous of you."
"The generosity is all yours."
"How do you work that out, pet?"
"I belong to you, do I not, sir?"
"That you do."
"And sharing your belongings to give pleasure may be viewed as generous, may it not?
"I appreciate your deliciously, circuitous logic pet."
"I appreciate you without reservation, sir."
"You have a most playful disposition that makes you good company and lifts the spirits."
"I'm glad that you feel that way."
"I like to feel you close," he smiled and placed a hot hand on her upper thigh.
"Very possessive, sir: I like that."
"Very malleable pet: I like that too."
"You take your time, sir."
"I shall, pet."
"I really appreciate the way you do not try to ram yourself down my throat, the way most males of my passing acquaintance do or seem to want to do."
"You have to beg nicely before I start ramming pet."
"Do I detect a twitch below the belt sir?"
"Only if you continue to press your hand in the region of my groin," he grinned.
"At least that is pleasantly distracting for you."
"I cannot deny that."
"You are such a gentleman, sir."
"I can be. I can also be a very rude man."
"I'll bet you in a rude rage is a very funny sight."
"Don't be so sure."
"One can never be too sure. I do, as a rule, find obscenities gratuitous and boorish, sir."
"I'll note that since I can be pretty profane myself at work at least."
"Really?"
"Really - I work with idiots."
"Is that very frustrating, sir?"
"Incredibly!"
"Would a massage be a pleasant diversion from such frustration?"
"I've never tried that at work anyway."
"I wouldn't want to lead you to rush to the washroom, sir."
"And do what in the washroom?"
"Wash your arousal away - sublimate your soup - make yourself presentable -- drag me in there to fuck me... the choices are limited - but on the whole real."
"Some of them are certainly quite appealing," he laughed and reached out to stroke her hand.
"I'm glad that I took the shadows from your mind or at least alleviated them a little."
"That service is always appreciated."
"Yes sir," she smiled and curtseyed again.
He bowed his head briefly in acknowledgement, but looked puzzled as she turned away, catching hold of her wrist.
"You wanted something more sir?"
"I want to know why you are turning away."
