Rosie looked up at the clock in surprise as the two other girls in the office started to pack up to leave. It was five o'clock all ready; the time had flown by. She looked over at the two piles of work in front of her. The larger was what she had done that day, the smaller what was left. She guessed that what remained of the smaller pile would take her about fifteen minutes to do. So she reached out and took the next sheet of the pile and set about typing it into the computer in front of her.
"Hey Rosie, you coming?" Julia asked from the next desk along. Rosie shook her head.
"Naw, going to finish this lot first." Rosie told her pointing to the pile of papers.
"Come on," Silvia the other girl said to her. "Leave them to the morning. We're going to the pub for a few drinks." Rosie was tempted but shook her head.
"I'll join you in a bit. These shouldn't take that long to do." The other two shook their heads and headed out the door. Rosie smiled to herself at their reaction. They did as little as they could get away with, and did not understand Rosie at all. She felt that staying over a short while to finish her work was not a bad thing. In fact it would go down well with the bosses. And if they thought she was a hard worked she might get a promotion. She knew it might take a while, as she was the new girl. Just out of University at twenty-two this was her first job. Here she was working in an office typing orders onto a computer. But she had failed her course and it was a start. If she worked hard in a few months she might get promoted with any luck.
She finished the sheet she had picked up put it on the done pile and picked up the next sheet. As normal she worked quietly focusing on her job to make sure there were no mistakes that she needed to change. Getting it right the first time was a lot quicker. If she made a mistake she had to go back and start again and that was a pain. She managed to finish them all by quarter past and without having to alter any mistakes. As she put the last sheet down it was with a little sigh of satisfaction at a job well done. She logged off the computer and started to gather her things. Just then Marcie the assistant to the office manager poked her head round the door.
"Hey Rosie, I'm just off but Homer says can you see him before you leave." Rosie gave a small groan.
"What for?" She asked exasperated, "I was just finished."
"He didn't say just told me to get you into see him. You better go in and see him." Marcie smiled apologetically as she spoke. Rosie put her coat and bag down and headed towards her bosses office. His name was not actually Homer, he was called that because of his surname: Simpkinson. Sounded almost like Simpson so he got the nickname Homer. His real name was John and this was the first time Rosie had been called in to see him since she started. Which made her a little worried, she tried to think back to see if she had done anything wrong but could not think of anything.
She stopped just outside his office and gave herself a quick check over. Her flame red hair was tied back and neat. She adjusted her glasses, not that she needed to it was a nervous action. She checked that her make up was not to thick on what she thought was a plain face only made noticeable by her deep blue eyes. Then she quickly glanced down to make sure her blouse was neat and that her skirt was not too short. Finally she checked that her shoes were clean. She wore them a little to high to make up for being barely five foot high. Only then did she knock on the door and head in.
John was sat behind his desk reading something on his computer. He looked up as she entered and waved her to the chair in front of his desk. Rosie sat down and waited. He scrolled through whatever he was reading then turned to look at her.
"Hi, I'm sorry to grab you just as you're going home but I wanted to talk with you about something." He said then left a short moment of silence while he seemed to gather his thoughts. "I've asked you to come see me because I've got a small problem." Rosie felt her heart jump into her throat what had she done wrong? "Marcie is leaving," Rosie looked shocked. "Yes that was my reaction when she told me. Her husband has got a good job up north and they're moving up there. So I have an opening for her position. I would like to put someone forward from this office and have been looking at the files for the three of you." He stopped for a second and looked at Rosie hard seemingly trying to look into her mind. Rosie blinked nervously and looked away.
"As I just said I've been looked at the records and have decided that of the three you are the best worker. In the short time you have been here you have shown a willingness to go beyond the basic parameters of your position. Your work rate and accuracy has been exemplary and I am very impressed."
"Thank you," Rosie said now even more shocked.
"Unfortunately you have only been with us a few months. In fact your probation period only finished three weeks ago. Which leaves us a problem. I would love to put you forward for the position but would have to do a lot of selling to get my superiors to accept your promotion." Rosie looked blankly at him not sure what he meant. "I could do that and would if I had a good reason to." Rosie was still non-the wiser and shook her head.
"I'm not sure what else I can do Mr Simpkinson." She said to him her voice showing how confused she was.
"Oh come now I'm sure a bright and attractive girl like you can think of someway to persuade or show me your commitment." Rosie looked at him blankly for a second then suddenly clicked to what he was getting at. Her eyes widened and she stifled a gasp of complete surprise.
"In what way could I show you?" She asked slowly, thinking rapidly as she spoke. She wanted a promotion but was she willing to do anything for it. Was she right in thinking he wanted her to sell herself for the job.
"Well if you show a willingness to satisfy my needs and requests then I will be happy to push for your promotion." His eyes said more than his words. She could see the glint in them that showed exactly what he wanted. She sat back and gave it a bit more thought. Was it that big a problem, after all it was only sex. At University she had slept with her fair share of guys this would be no different.
"I believe I could show a suitable willingness to satisfy if you wished." She finally said wording it carefully. "What would it entail?" She added so she could ready herself properly. He smiled more to himself than to her and lent forwards with an eager look in his eye.
"I am as you may know married and my wife satisfies me in a lot of ways but there is one way that she is unwilling to oblige." Rosie nodded waiting for him to continue. "She refused to carry out any oral sexual acts on me, or me on her. She thinks it's dirty and won't do it."
"You want me to suck you off?" Rosie said a little surprised having been expecting something harder. He nodded in reply.
"Is that a problem?"
