I grabbed my coat and hustled out of the hotel room I had called my home for the last five months. I was running late and new that my trainer Dave hated tardiness. We were meeting to discuss the last week of my training before I finally got placed in my permanent position as a mid level manager. Dave wanted to meet at a bar and grill on the south side of town that had great food and a quiet comfortable ambiance. The problem was that this restaurant was on the other side of the city and there was no way I was going to make it before seven.
I glanced at my watch and groaned loudly, it was a quarter till seven, Dave was going to be a total prick about me being late. Dave was generally a total prick anyways, but he always took it to a new level whenever I made a simple mistake. The most infuriating part about it was that I couldn't do a damn thing to call him on his attitude. He held my career in his massive hands, and could squash my hopes and dreams with a simple phone call. On top of that, Dave was a god damn monster. He was easily 6'7", and well over three hundred pounds. The man was built like a statue of Zeus, only larger and more imposing.
Now I'm a big guy, six foot tall and well over two hundred thirty pounds. Thanks to my days of football I was no slouch physically and had intimidated my fair share of men in the past. However, Dave knew he was the alpha male in our relationship, hell in almost every relationship, and he used his authority like a club.
I started my car and slammed out onto the streets driving with an abandon that was neither safe nor very intelligent. I thought of excuses in my head as to why I was late but abandoned them in my head almost immediately. Dave didn't respond well to excuses, not that he responded very well to anything I had done in the past five months.
With my watch blinking five minutes till seven, I pulled into the restaurant parking lot slipping into a great spot near the front of the building. I rushed inside and quickly spotted Dave sitting at a bar table towards the back of the room. He motioned for me to come over and I did so, frustrated by my own meek acceptance of whatever he asked of me. This job better be worth this shit, I thought angrily as I fell into the seat across from Dave.
Dave watched me quietly as he sipped on what I could only guess was his usual Rum and Coke. His face was stoic, his dark brown eyes held a kind of mocking excitement. Part of me wanted to step up and pop him in the face but I instead stared right back at him. Our stare down was broken a moment later by a gorgeous waitress who asked me what I'd like to drink.
"I'll have a Long Island Iced Tea please," I said smiling widely as my eyes soaked up the beauty before me. She was curvaceous with long blonde hair, and a pair of lips that made my cock stir in my pants. She eyed me as she wrote down my drink order on a little pad, and then turned and walked towards the bar. I watched her go, admiring the way her ass swayed in the tight black skirt she wore. She glanced back as I watched and smiled mischievously at me, knowing exactly what I was doing and showing that she didn't mind.
"If you're done eye fucking our waitress maybe we can get down to business. It's bad enough you were late." Dave said his gruff voice breaking me from my sexual hazed mind.
"I wasn't late, I got in right at seven," I protested.
"In the business world Tyler, you try and show up early. If someone say's seven then you need to be there at 6:45, not right at seven you moron. Have you not paid attention to any of the shit I've been trying to teach you over the last five months?" He asked it in the most condescending tone possible.
"I'm sorry Dave I am trying to learn everything you teach me." I said through gritted teeth.
"I'm sure you are." he waved me off dismissively as the waitress returned with my drink. I could feel her full breasts on my arm as she leaned over to place the drink in front of me. She winked as she stood back up and then walked back towards the bar. I could feel my dick become fully stiff and I fought the desire to reach down and give my cock a firm grab.
We drank in silence for the next few moments, and even ordered our meals without saying more than two words to each other. We had very little in common and it had showed over the last five months. Dave was into survival shows and hunting, and I was into sports and easy women. He was a business man based on years of service and I was a hot shot bullshit artist that was going to eventually run him out of a job.
"So the reason I called you down here was to tell you that I finalized your contract and you'll start next week in Atlanta." He said it quietly in between bites of the appetizers that had just been delivered by the flirty young waitress.
I sat stunned, not even comprehending what he had just said to me. I grabbed my drink and tossed it back in one fell swoop and then shook my head to clear my suddenly fuzzy mind.
"You did what? I mean Thank you, but I thought we still had another week of training?" I stammered.
"You don't need another week, you'll stay here while they set up your office in Atlanta, but your done with anymore training. I know I haven't made this an easy couple of months but I had to make sure you could handle the job. You did well, and I wanted to bring you out here and have a few drinks to celebrate. I think we've both earned it." he said his tone relaxing more than I had ever heard it in the past.
"Well thank you Dave, I really appreciate that. All this time I thought you hated me and weren't going to pass me on the training." I said.
"No you did well, I'm hard on everyone like that. It's just how I do it and it seems to work pretty damn well for the company and my reputation." he smiled as he said the last.
The conversation went on for a few hours as we ate our meal and had our first ever genuine conversation. The booze flowed freely and we began to laugh and joke about each other as we finished our meals and sat back finishing another round of drinks.
The waitresses shift had ended but she had given me her number and told me to call her after we were done with our meals. I tucked it away in my wallet and let my mind wander to what I would do to her later this evening. We finished another round and Dave decided it might be in our best interest to go back to the hotel.
