"Sienna?"
So he did remember her, she smiled at him. "How are you, Jason?"
"I'm good... really... actually good. I mean I'm good... better now. I just can't believe you're here. This is such a weird coincidence." Jason said tongue-tied.
Way to go, jerk off! He thought.
They were interrupted by Ozzie who explained the format of the class to everyone.
When Ozzie finished talking; neither Jason nor Sienna really knew what to say to each other. It was awkward for them because they could vividly recall their fantasies the night before. Jason uncomfortably shifted his hardened bulge and Sienna squirmed on her stool as her pussy was already wet.
Every time Jason opened his mouth to say something to her... nothing came out. So he would close his mouth confused and try to act busy. This was out of the ordinary as Jason was one of the smoothest talkers... especially to women. But at that moment, in front of Sienna, he might as well been a non-English speaker. The only things coming out of his mouth were unidentifiable sounds.
Ozzie watched Jason. He wrinkled his eyebrows and tilted his head to the side as if trying to figure him out. He wondered if he should get Jason a sign language interpreter.
On the other hand, Sienna had a perfect system of shock and avoidance. This was out of shyness of course. After their brief hello, she excused herself and went to the bathroom.
She shut herself in the handicap stall and walked in circles like a dog chasing her tail while mumbling to herself. She started hyperventilating and threw some water on her face and patted the beads of sweat from her forehead, neck and armpits. She looked in the mirror and with her fingertips pushed her lower eyelids down while silently arguing to herself. After five minutes of this type of behavior; Sienna inhaled a breath of air, pushed her chest out, cleared her throat and walked back to her station.
She looked fresh as a daisy and no one would have guessed the mini-panic attack she had in the bathroom.
Jason was trying to explain to Ozzie that he did not in fact need an ASL interpreter and could speak regular English just fine. When Ozzie was finally convinced, Jason glanced at Sienna and she looked completely immersed in her drawing. He decided to just concentrate on his as he found it calming.
An hour later, Sienna ended up drawing an abstract charcoal piece that resembled a dancer. Jason's drawing was actually a city. He drew detailed buildings with elaborate moldings in a futuristic design. When the class was over, Jason watched Sienna gather her supplies.
"What do you say about grabbing some lunch?" Jason asked.
Sienna stomach grumbled. She gave him a shy smile that melted his heart instantly.
"I guess I am kinda hungry. I only had coffee this morning."
They found a local diner and were seated in a semi-private booth in the back. They ordered their food. Sienna feeling in the mood for breakfast had waffles, eggs and sausage while Jason ordered a burger and fries.
While they ate, there was silence.
Sienna played with her straw's paper debris while Jason drowned a fry in ketchup.
Silence.
"So..." Jason started.
"So..." Sienna followed.
The both chuckled and then started laughing. They laughed so hard that people around them probably thought they were crazy. It was a good moment to let out the tension.
After that, they talked for hours. They related everything from the basics to the intimate. They talked about their childhood and their family. They spoke candidly about Francis and Sean and everything in between.
Sienna and Jason were both secretly in awe of each other, but didn't want to let it on.
Because of their realistic month-long fantasies, it felt surreal to have a real conversation that didn't involve naughty words. They sounded like old friends catching up after meeting again.
Jason was totally gone. He was ready to promise this girl the world.
Sienna felt so comfortable with this gorgeous guy, she couldn't quite understand it.
They were both acting completely out of character. Jason was sitting there, contemplating what their kids would look like. Sienna wondered if she could slip under the booth and suck his dick without being noticed.
Sienna cleared her throat.
"So you're 'the Jason Bane' from Bane International." Sienna stated more than asked. Jason nodded. "The law firm I work for is actually located a block from the Bane building. We represent yours in acquisitions all the time. I've worked closely with Chad Housend..."
Oh great, she's dealt with the company pervert.
"He's quite a character." Sienna remarked.
"Yea, good old Chad... He wasn't inappropriate with you was he?"
Sienna smirked, "Ah, it was fine. He does seem to have a thing for grabbing asses though... Unfortunately for him, I have a thing for perfectly locating scrotum with a kick of my knee."
Sienna giggled and Jason widened his eyes.
"That was you! Chad said he had a baseball injury. He was out of work for a week! ... He had to have some kind of procedure."
Sienna shrugged her shoulders, chuckled and said, "Well, serves him right. Maybe now he'll stop thinking with that organ."
Jason didn't know why, but knowing Sienna could kick a man's ass was such a turn on. 'His organ' agreed and was rock hard, imagining Sienna panting while in action. He thought of the sweat beads that would form on her neck and gorgeous breasts. Her body vibrating from the succinct movements, her perfect kissable mouth turning into a roar as she screamed...
"So, it's a small world. Who knows how many times we might have crossed paths, and we end up meeting in a Long Island cemetery and then end up in the same random art class in Soho." Sienna said completely unaware of Jason's thoughts.
"Huh? Oh yea, it's like the universe is pulling us together. I hope you don't mind." Jason said grinning cheekily.
Sienna was distracted by his sexy mouth.
"Not at all, I was rather hoping to bump into you someday." Sienna said.
That comment made Jason's heart skip a beat.
"I mean, I wanted to see how you were getting along after your mom's passing." Sienna continued.
"Oh." Jason said disheartened.
Sienna couldn't believe it. Jason Bane was known to be most ruthless cut-throat man on Wall Street. He was one of the youngest to become a multi-millionaire before the age of 25. She heard he recently retired to pursue personal interests. But she also knew he was a spoiled player. One time he showed up to an event with two dates, one on each arm but left with the governor's 19 year old daughter.
And this was the sexy tortured soul she had been fantasizing about? He didn't seem to be any of those things. Sienna automatically put a precautionary wall up. She was completely infatuated with him but she wasn't stupid enough to fall for someone with that track record.
"I just can't believe you're Jason Bane. Your reputation exceeds you. You are not at all what I expected".
"Yea, well I've changed a lot in the last month." Jason said bitterly.
"Is it true what they say?"
Jason thought it was time to come clean and be honest.
"I'm not going to lie to you, Sienna. I want to be completely honest with you. I have changed a lot in the last month. I used to be a complete asshole. I stepped on a lot people and played dirty when it came to business. I used to use women because I thought they were using me. It took my mom dying for me to realize how twisted I'd become. And I'm going to have to live with that for the rest of my life." Looking into her eyes he said, "You might not realize it but you've inspired me to change."
"Huh? Me? I don't understand."
Jason took a breath and continued, "Well, I thought about how you helped a perfect stranger. You could've kept walking but you didn't. You were so kind and compassionate. You gave me what I needed but didn't push your help on me. I was so fucked up and you were like a little bright spot through the fog. So I made a resolve that I was going to follow your example by stop being so selfish and live a more simple life.
"I couldn't stay with the firm; I started there for all the wrong reasons. I wanted to prove a point to my old man. I don't even like Finance. I'm not sure what I want to do but I want to do it on my time and my way. In the past my motivation was money and taking care of my mom financially. But I think that was just an excuse for my greed and ambition.
"So slowly but surely, I've been purging my lifestyle and am ready for a new beginning. After you left that day, I promised my mom on her grave, I would change. I want to think that wherever she is, she will someday be proud of who I'll become." Jason said somberly. He cleared his throat and took a drink of water since it had gone a little dry.
He looked up at Sienna and her eyes were watery, she was patiently waiting for him to finish. She slid out of the booth and slid into his side. She gave him a tight hug which he accepted and held him there.
"Jason you're so brave to start new. I'm sure your mom loved you so much and she knew you would come around. She's probably smiling down at you right now." Sienna whispered in his ear.
Jason looked in her eyes and said, "That day at the cemetery, I thought you were an angel sent down to help me redeem my sins. I thought you were so beautiful, that you couldn't be real. I've thought about of you everyday, Sienna." Jason admitted.
Sienna eyes widened when she realized what he was saying and how close she was sitting to him.
"But why didn't you contact me?" Sienna whispered in a confused tone. Jason's revelations gave Sienna mixed feelings of shock, elation and arousal.
"At first it was because I was going through all the shit with mom's passing. I was angry and full of shame and guilt. I was toxic and depressed... But the real reason I didn't email you sooner is because I was afraid you'd reject me. I convinced myself that I wasn't good enough for you." Jason confessed.
Sienna leaned over and brushed her lips against his. She meant it as a sign of acceptance but Jason just sat there shocked. When Sienna pulled away, Jason gave her brilliant smile.
