Chapter Two:
Preparation
Our second meeting was fixed for the same time the next week. I booked the training room in some anticipation - but anticipation of what, I Was not entirely sure. Whenever I sat down at my computer to try to write the slides and notes I had promised Louise, I found myself staring blankly at the screen, thinking about the casual
View she had given me of her beautiful long bare legs. It was Almost as though she had somehow deliberately implanted the image of her smooth beautifully tanned skin, and the sensuous curves of her long bare legs, permanently in my brain. I was becoming obsessed with her irresistible legs. I wanted to be able to experience their Texture now that I had seen them almost to their full extent. I even imagined that I had caught a glimpse of her panties, - even though I knew in reality that I Hadn't.
It occurred to me in my musings that there was not a sofa in the Training room, so I was unlikely to get a repeat performance,
And I wondered if and when this would ever happen again. Would I have to wait until Madrid? Would it happen then?
On the Monday, two days before the scheduled second preparation Meeting, I had an e-mail from Louise, attached to which were
Some bulleted notes about what she would be covering in her part of the presentation, asking me to make sure that these points were reflected in the slides and speaker's notes I was preparing. She Added at the end that Monica's office would be free at 4:30 that Afternoon if I was free to have a quick chat about the content. This seemed to me to be a somewhat unnecessary pre-meeting arrangement, and I was slightly irritated because I already had
Another deadline to meet that afternoon. I decided to let it lie for a while, and to see if I could make up any time during the Morning before replying.
At about 12:15, my incoming e-mail alert chimed out, and I saw in my inbox a meeting request. It said:
"From: Louise Green
Subject: Madrid preparation issues
When: 4:30pm
Location: the comfortable room
Required: Becton Charles
Priority: high."
Without assessing the progress of my other work, I clicked the "accept" button.
The rest of the day passed uneventfully. I ate a sandwich at my Work station, and found myself thinking, as usual these days, About Louise, and more particularly about those beautiful legs Of hers. I wondered again why she had fixed this extra meeting. Once again, I felt a sense of anticipation, though again I did not know exactly what I was anticipating. I knew for certain, however, that it was something to do with those fascinating legs! All I could remember was the vivid image of her long bare legs, and I contented myself with the hope that I would almost certainly get to see them again that afternoon!
At 4:30pm precisely, I walked briskly along to Monica's office, carrying a laptop with my draft slide presentation loaded onto
Its desktop. On my arrival I found the door closed, with a hand-written "DO NOT DISTURB" sign hanging on the outer handle. I knocked, and Louise's soft voice answered.
"Come in, Charles," it cooed, almost inaudibly against the hum and hiss of the air conditioning system. I entered the room, to find Louise stretched out on the sofa, waiting for me. She had both her legs over the short sofa's arm at its further end, and had positioned them slightly apart so I could see fully their wonderful contours. Her skirt might as well not have existed. I walked casually over to the work station and found a space for my laptop.
"Hello, Louise!" I said cheerfully, as I disconnected the monitor from Monica's PC and connected it to my laptop.
"Hello Charles," she replied softly.
I looked across and smiled at her, taking in a spectacular view of her very long very beautiful bare legs.
