Out Of Left Field He Came For Me

At 27 I was working as an accounting supervisor in a 50 plus accounting department. Our overall boss was the CFO. One of my coworkers told him that I had gotten drunk over the weekend and she had had to take me home to sober me up. That afternoon he came to my office and told me that he had heard a disturbing allegation, was I getting drunk when I was out around strangers? The tone of his voice was serious and I told him it was a one time thing, he told me he didn't believe me and 'just so I got it straight in my head, it wasn't going to happen again or he would take measures with respect to my behavior'.

It wasn't the words, it was the tone of his voice. Something in me reacted to it, I didn't want to find out what he meant by it. I stopped going out with my friends bar hopping. He kept tabs on me, and I checked in with him regularly. It wasn't so much letting him know I was home and was ready for bed, it was not going out unless I checked in with him. I wasn't asking for permission, I was checking to make sure I was within the boundaries he had set for me.

I was out with some of my growing up friends in Puerto Rico when he called and said he wanted to see me. My instinct was to drop everything and run over to meet him, but I stood my ground and said I was in the middle of dinner with friends. He made sure I wasn't drinking and told me to hurry up and come meet him.

MY conscience totally disturbed, I excused myself and went to meet him. He was at a restaurant and I asked what was going on and he told me to sit with him, he wanted me close to him that night. My nerves couldn't take it any more and I asked him if he was taking me home with him.

I had been to his place many times, but this night I knew I was going to wake up there. His body language and the tone of his voice told me he wanted me with him. For some reason I felt like I was fifteen, I didn't resist him, I going with him where ever it was he was taking me. I woke up in his bed, he was cooking bacon. The days of playing were gone for ever. I knew that I was going to be waking up there every morning. I just knew it, his body language and the way he spoke to me. I did what I had never done before, I went over and kissed him.
