After the knock on his hotel room door which surprised Bill, he opened the door and found Mrs. MacGregor standing there. He was a little surprised to her. "oh, hi, Mrs. M. I thought we were meeting at the other hotel and walking to dinner as a group." Bill was on a trip with a few co-workers he'd been interning with. He was a late addition to the business trip and Mrs. Macgregor was head of the department. Jane MacGregor was a lot older than Bill. She was probably 50 but she was pretty high up in the company and head of their whole department. Bill was really pleased when she noticed him left off a list of people to go on the trip and pulled him aside after a meeting. He was such a late addition that Mrs. Macgregor's assistant couldn't get him in the same hotel as the conference with most of the rest of the people but she got him at another nice hotel nearby.
Mrs.MacGregor came in without waiting to be invited and sat on one of the beds. "Yes we are Bill but I wanted to make sure you were enjoying the conference and apologize for sending you over here. We'll walk to the restaurant together and meet everyone else. Do you like the hotel?"
"Yes, ma'am. Thank you so much for bringing me. I guess I didn't expect to go and it was super nice to bring me. I don't mind being here. It's a real nice hotel so I'm not complaining at all."
Jane liked the new kid. He had the right attitude. He was hard-working, did everything he could to help on everything, never complained, and recognized authority. Not everyone did these days although Jane MacGregor never had a problem weeding those people out. But she was glad Bill appreciated it. "I'm glad you like it Bill. Everyone likes to be on the conference site but I actually like some distance sometimes. And this is a great hotel. I'm staying here myself but please don't let any of our staff know."
Bill felt very comfortable and decided he liked his boss even if she had a reputation in the company for being tough. She was actually pretty nice. He was looking forward to dinner. He got in late the night before and hadn't seen anyone or done anything. Just stopped at a store, bought a few things, and spent the night in his room by himself. Today's meeting and tonight's dinner were the start.
Mrs. MacGregor used his bathroom and he finished putting on his tie so they could just go.
Mrs. M came out and looked at him funny. "Bill, are you staying here alone?"
"What? Of course I am, why?"
Mrs. Macgregor looked seriously at him and held up a pair of black silk panties. "Whose are these? Someone else here or are you screwing around instead of working and someone left them?"
Bill turned very red and was mad at himself. He was really pissed. This was going to be embarrassing.
"No, ma'am. They're mine. I mean not mine but they aren't anyone's. I haven't seen anyone or anything. I just didn't clean up and they were just you know I mean I was going to get rid of them and I didn't think anyone would stop by or anything." Bill was rambling and scared and embarrassed and having trouble.
Jane MacGregor wasn't mad but she was amused. She didn't want to completely embarrass Bill but this would be more fun if she stayed serious. "Bill, it's okay. But be honest with me, okay? Bill, do you wear women's clothes? You aren't wearing any right now are you?"
"Shit no!" Bill reacted violently then stopped. "I'm sorry but no, nothing like that. I'm not a whatever. I just I mean this is embarrassing but I just, um, was walking last night and I got some food and a couple things at that department store. Just some beer and I needed a razor and a snack and I saw these and you know. I mean I was alone in a hotel and kind of used them to...oh damn you think I'm a total perv and you're going to fire me but I swear. This is so embarrassing."
Jane smiled. She was relaxed and loved the younger man's embarrassment. So she held the panties up by one finger and swung them. "Bill, calm down. So you're not cheating on a girlfriend or buying hookers then." Bill turned red but didn't speak. She continued, "So my star intern gets to a new city and buys cheap silk panties so he can masturbate himself to sleep at a hotel. That's a pretty picture."
