I'd been banging this chick at work, but I'd been offered a "promotion" to a larger office. I was going to have to break it to her, but I wanted to keep seeing her - she's been over to my house and screwed me and my room mates.
I figured I should tell her, so when I had a spare minute, I went to her desk.
She looked up at me, sort of expectantly.
"I'm leaving," I said.
"Leaving?" she asked. "Going where?"
"I'm getting a promotion. Bigger customer across town."
"Huh," she said. "Congratulations."
She seemed disappointed.
"I'm here until the end of the week, and they're sending over a new guy so I can show him the ropes."
"Well," she leaned towards me and said quietly, "as long as you only show him the ropes he needs to do his job here. I don't want anything else getting shown to him."
"Oh no," I said, leaning closer to her too. "I'm not going to cause you any problems. If we can, I'd like to stay in touch."
"Sure," she said.
"On that note, I was going to invite you over - tonight, if you're free."
"What did you have in mind?" she asked.
"Kyle's a masseur."
"Uh huh," she said, "and that's not just an excuse to get me over to have sex?"
"Well, you know we loved that, but he really is a masseur. I'm sure you'd enjoy a good, free, massage."
"Free as in 'no expectations'?"
I grinned, knowing she knew I'd hoped to have some fun.
"OK," she said, "it's a date. I'll come over on my way home."
"We can even get a pizza and beer or something."
"I'll be driving, so no beer for me," she said, "but you do whatever you'd like. Do you need me to get anything?"
"Nah, we'll order in. Anyway, better go - I'll see you later."
I left her to finish her day and went back to work. I called Kyle to let him know we were on, and I bolted out the door as soon as I could at the end of the day. I headed home to get things a little tidied up while Kyle got his massage table set up in the living room so we could watch.
I watched out the window, and when she knocked on the door, I immediately opened it.
"Come in," I said.
She looked doubtfully at Kyle's table, with a towel on it.
"Aren't we going to go somewhere, um, a little more private?" she asked.
"They wanted to watch," Kyle said.
She shrugged.
"I promised you pizza," I said. "What would you like?"
"Hawaiian?" she suggested. "That's pretty inoffensive, nobody dislikes ham or pineapple."
"OK," I said, "but we get really shitty service, so it'll probably be an hour or so."
