He always watched her. She wasn't sure how to take it at first. She was efficient in her job, always followed procedures and adhered to company policy. As months past, she got used to it. It only bothered her slightly. She attempted to have a conversation with him on several occasions, but was only met with silence.
Maybe he didn't speak English.
"Alright Camille, have a nice night." Carl was making it an early evening. His wife was back in town and he wanted to surprise her with a home cooked dinner when she got home. Camille waved at him before turning back to the security monitors. She breathed deeply anticipating another four hours of silence with Mr. Talkative to her right.
She observed him out the corner of her eye. He wasn't bad looking. In fact, he was very attractive. He had wavy dark hair that he kept short. A strong jaw line and straight nose. His profile showed that his expression was blank, his full lips pulled into a straight line and his eyes focused on the screens ahead. Camille shook her head out of her reverie, recalling a report she had to complete before the end of her shift.
"Joao, do you mind passing me a 317 form?" It was only logical to ask him. Since being hired, he took up residence in the seat inches from the file cabinet. It used to be her seat. In fact, it was actually her seat for about three years. But he was a large 6'4" to her 5'6" and upon her initial handshake greeting with him; she wisely decided not to mention his thievery of her seat.
Again with the silence.
She wondered if he actually heard her. She turned in his direction to ask him again and was met with his penetrating stare. 'Ugh, this again,' Camille rolled her eyes and turned back to the security screens.
'I really need a vacation,' she thought rubbing the back of her neck. 'This is going to be another long night.' She glanced at him again and found that he was still staring.
"What? Do I have something on my face?" She smiled, trying to get him to lighten up. Camille still didn't think he spoke English. He could probably read it though, their job required it.
A few moments passed before something miraculous happened.
"No." He spoke. "You have nothing on your face." Camille turned slowly at the sound of his voice. It was so sexy. She briefly debated if it was best for him to stay silent. His voice was deep, sexy and slightly accented. "You are very beautiful.
Camille was stunned before she blurted, "Obrigada. [thank you]" Joao's stare didn't waver; in fact it got more intense. He even wore a tiny smile.
"You speak my language, linda?"
"Not really, I have always wanted to visit Brazil so I bought an English/Portuguese translation book in anticipation."
"I see," He smirked, showing perfect white teeth. "Let me know when you go linda, I'll show you all the places you need to visit."
Camille returned his smile, enjoying their friendly banter. She wasn't expecting him to actually say anything to her. And not only did he trump her expectations of him, he upped himself by showing his attraction towards her.
She wasn't going to be that susceptible to him charms though. She knew her strengths and weaknesses. Her looks were average at best. She had symmetrical features and a decent body that she kept in shape. Large dark eyes, a nondescript nose and full lips. Her skin was an even brown shade lighter than most, but nothing totally exotic. Her hair was black, long and always pulled back due to the dress code requirements of her security job.
'I do take care of myself though.' She thought looking into the small mirror that she set up on the side of her workstation. Her thick eyebrows were always trimmed and she always took the time to put on a tinted moisturizer, mascara and lipgloss before leaving for work.
"I have to admit," Joao started, looking back to the monitors. "When I first hired." He shook his head slightly and started again. "When I first was hired, I was intimidated for you."
"You were intimidated by me?"
"Si. You are nothing like how I thought. You are beauty with substance. Very rare." He smirked again, and stood up. "I will be back, it's my break time."
Camille nodded, glancing at him as he made his way to the door. His uniform fitted his physique perfectly. It was almost as if their uniforms were made for him. He had broad shoulders and tapered hips. His body was covered in muscle, not too bulky, but very apparent in almost every move he made. His thighs were works of art. The uniform slacks highlighted every curve, including his tight rear.
She decided that now was the time to complete her paperwork. Camille was almost finished with her report when her coworker came back. She didn't notice his entrance. If she did she would have noticed that he was staring again. Not only was a staring, he was standing right behind her.
He put both hands on her chair and leaned forward, careful to keep her unaware of his attentions. Since his initial meeting with her, he'd been enthralled. It was the first moment since coming to the States that he felt inadequate with his grasp on the language. Before opening his mouth to say anything, he felt tongue tied. Therefore, he refused to say anything. He knew it was considered very rude, but he really felt he had no other option.
Now leaning over her, he was empowered. He knew she found him attractive. He could tell by the looks she sent. He also knew that she would never act on her attraction.
