Recap:
"We have a problem though." Freya said as she sat up.
"What's wrong?" Shia asked.
"The promotion...who gets it and would the other be okay with the outcome."

The office seemed quiet this morning. They both sat at their desks pondering what to do. Do they give it up for the other or let it play out.
Freya was zoned out when she noticed her boss standing holding his office door open as he motioned for Shia to come to him.
Freya watched as Shia slowly made her way over to him. She stared into the glass windows as Shia immediately started talking and moving her hands as she spoke and pointed to Freya. She saw her boss nod before coming back out and waving to Freya to join them.
"Did she just give me the promotion?" Freya wondered.
They both sat down in the chairs as he closed the blinds.
He sat at his desk and looked at both of them.
"I have given this a lot of thought... and before either of you fuss it's final. You both deserve so much more than I am offering you but it is all I have." He stopped before continuing.
"Correct me if I'm wrong but I understand you two are in a relationship?"
Freya started panicking as her face was red. "sir I-"
"Yes we are." Shia said without hesitation.
He smiled at both of them. "You both work very well together; our progress rates have never been this high. You both are more than qualified..which is why I'm retiring."
"Sir but-" Shia started before he put his hand up.
"I have already completed all the paperwork. My husband and I have made the decision together, and we are moving to Maine and living out our lives. I'll be giving you my personal phone number and email in case you ever need to get in touch."
Shia and Freya looked at each other puzzled.
"There are a few things I need from the both of you. First being done you accept my offers? Shia you would take my place and Freya would be assisting." He started.
They both agreed with smiles.
He smiled back at them. "Good.. I'm glad. Okay next is paperwork. I also need you to sign saying I had no idea about a relationship if there is one etc. After all this I will hold a meeting and tell the staff, and we will begin the transition." He said with a big smile.
"Sir you are sure about all this?" Shia asked.
He sat back in his chair and smiled. "We have been wanting to get away from here for so long, and actually have time for each other. I'm more than sure about this. Only thing I ask is that you fire Dana and Mike. I have already signed all the paperwork for that as well and given my reasons."
"Why are you firing them?" Freya asked.
"Dana never meets her deadlines, her work is always half ass ed and I have multiple accounts of harassment." He said bluntly.
"And Mike?" Shia asked.
He sighed. "On multiple occasions he has exposed and forced himself onto me along with another employee, he wanted promotions and has tried blackmailing me multiple times as well."
"How?" Freya asked.
"Well my husband and I were frequent at a swingers club... he happened to be there as well and took photos of us and threatened to out me in the workplace as well to higher ups. Not knowing that the owner of this company is a trans gay man, who I am close friends with. He has already approved the both of you." He smiled.
"He is actually very thrilled to meet you both and has well frankly ordered that we all have a nice lunch soon. He will become a close friend."
Shia handed Freya the paperwork. They both stood and walked back to their desks.
Freya didn't know what to think with all this new information. Her phone pinged.
"We are going out to dinner as a couple and celebrating tonight!!" Shia sent.
Freya smiled at her phone. Thinking of them as a couple was a weird but nice feeling.

The email finally came out that there would be a staff meeting in ten minutes.
Everyone gathered into the briefing room. "Is everyone here?" Tom spoke waiting for everyone to quiet down.
"Okay, good morning everyone. I wanted to tell you all that I am retiring."
The staff erupted in talk.
Tom quieted them down again.
"I want you all to welcome the assisting CEO Freya and the CEO Shia. The owner of the company and I made this decision together. Norman is eager to see how well you all work under new management and wishes everyone the very best."

Shia and Freya began packing up their desks as Dana came around the Freya. "Assistant CEO huh?" She scoffed.
"Yup." Freya said as she organized her belongings.
"Did you ask Shia about lunch?" She asked.
"I did."
"Well?"
"She really doesn't want to.. But I think I may have talked her into at least one lunch date. Go ask." Freya said.
Dana left and made her way over to Shia who glared at her over her monitor.
"What now?" Shia asked.
"I um just wanted to say congrats and was wondering if you wanted to go out for a celebratory lunch or drink after work?"
"I have plans after work." Shia said as she glanced at Freya watching her.
"Lunch then?"
Shia sighed. "Sure. See you in the elevator in 20."
"O-okay see you then." She smiled.
Dana made her way for the bathroom, and she passed Freya's desk on her way. "Thank you!" She beamed as she rushed to the door.
Shia sat irritated looking at Freya. Her phone pinged.
"Don't worry .. After dinner, I will make it up to you ..boss ;)." Freya smirked at her.
Shia looked up to be met by Feya's seductive gaze undressing her with her eyes.
"How so?"
Freya arched an eyebrow at her as she looked at her phone typing.
"Well first we will go to dinner, order a bottle of wine, Uber home. We can make out in the back while we go home. I want to feel your hand between my thighs as I nip at your lip..."
Shia smirked at her waiting for more.
"I want to have to stifle my moans so the driver doesn't hear me. I want you to dive your hand into my pants. I want you to feel how wet I am. I want you to finger me until the car stops, and we have to get out and wait until we are inside."
"I'll push you against the wall as I lose my clothes. I want you undressing behind me as we make our way to the bedroom. I want to pin you to the bed and handcuff you to the headboard..fuck I want you tied down, so I can eat you for dessert. I want to use you while you watch me in the mirrors."
Shia smiled as she was lost in Freya's written world. She jumped at the sound of Dana's voice and slammed her phone down.
Dana looked at her questioning what she was doing.
"Uh ready to go?" She asked.
Shia got her things as she followed Dana to the elevator. She looked back at Freya as she gave her a devious smile.
***
Riding down in the elevator Shia's phone pinged.
"I'm so wet."
Shia's heart raced as she peeked at her phone as Dana talked. Her face was flushed.
"I think I'll go sit in my car for lunch... maybe you'll join me after?" Freya sent.
Shia couldn't believe her girlfriend was being such a tease.
