It takes him forever just to meet my eyes. I think he is sexy and I like a challenge, so I flirt with him whenever I come into the office. Mostly because he seems shy so I think it'll unnerve him a little; partly because when you see somebody so calm like that, so even-keeled, you want to shake them up a bit. Throw them off balance, make sure they remember you. But then he looks me in the eye for the first time, and I think, damn. His eyes are blue.
I run into him in a coffee shop after work. We talk and I guess I'm making sense but I can't say for sure. My eyes are on his lips and all I'm thinking about is what it will be like when we kiss. I'm trying to work out the details. He has a beard, and I've never kissed a guy with a beard before. If I'm in heels, our heights match β he won't have to lean down. He has just smoked a cigarette; I taste like coffee. I wonder - if we kiss on a streetcorner, will still have his glasses on? I am trying to remember what that's like, kissing someone with glasses, the mechanics of it. My god, his eyes are so blue. He is wearing a hat, but I will figure out a way to rub my fingers through his bristly hair.
I see him in the hallway of the office. We stand and make small talk and I'm looking at his shirt, which is dark orange, button-down. He carries himself like he's heavier than he is β wide stance, arms away from his body. I imagine grabbing him by the lapels and pulling him towards me; kissing him, pushing his mouth open, my tongue on his. I unbutton his shirt in my head and picture what's underneath it. Dark hair, I think. Lots of it. Pinkish nipple, a little bit of belly. Broad shoulders. He doesn't know how how badly I want to press my face against his skin. I would kiss every part of him, nudge his thighs open, cradle his balls with my tongue, stroke the back of them with my fingertips. I would slide his cock all the way to the back of my throat and swallow. In my mind we are doing this on the floor of the hallway as people walk by, as he and I continue to talk, though about what, I can't remember. As he turns to walk away I am grabbing him and holding him fast, biting the back of his neck, reaching around to hold him, pulsing, in my fist. I would let you come all over me, I think, but he doesn't turn around.
