her or not.
With thoughts of all that she had to say to him, she moved through the people and went out of the room. There was none in the hallway.
Her heart began to beat faster as her stomach began to turn on itself.
She made her way down the hallway that would take her out of the building. At the end of that hallway, she felt his hand on her waist as he pulled her to the side.
He smiled and put his fingers to her lips, telling her to be quiet. She found herself in his arms, her eyes were lost in the depth of his and even if she wanted to, she couldn't say anything to him.
He bent down a bit and kissed her. That was one fiery kiss, one which she willingly gave into and returned.
"Let's go back and fix what happened before." He said in a cracked voice, anxious from having her so close to him.
"No, this is crazy!" She tried to force herself out of his strong hands.
"Marie..." He murmured her name as he massaged his lips against hers.
"This shouldn't have happened!" She whispered excitedly. The feelings that flowed through her as he kissed her scared her.
"But it happened and it'll happen again." He gently caressed her cheek, wanting to take all the fear and doubt from her beautiful face.
"Never again." She said suddenly as she pushed herself away from him. "You will NEVER try this again." She threatened as she turned around and left the building, leaving him alone.
"But why?" He asked her in a soft voice as the door closed behind her.
Chapter 14
This time, instead of going head first into uncomfortable situations, Nathan decided that he would open up his ears more to the "talks" around the office. He wanted to make sure that he got every juicy detail of what was happening in his colleagues lives.
Among the more mundane details, he overheard the fact that Marie has been dating an engineer called Bruce.
At that very moment, he decided to go talk to her in her office. With his folders in his hands and a face which seemed cold, but hid the anxiousness he felt in his guts, he knocked on her office door and entered without waiting for a reply.
"It's you." She rolled her eyes. "Good afternoon Mr. Greco." She said as she began packing her things, ready to leave the office as fast she could.
"I see that you're very happy to see me."
"You need something?" She lifted her beautiful head to look at him.
With her fingers, she moved the few strands of hair that slipped across her face. She seemed very disinterested and business oriented.
"I need your help with these documents." He threw the folders on the table in front of her.
"I'm in a hurry, but if it can't wait ..."
"It can't." He cut her off.
Marie opened the folders and looked at the papers.
"Hmm, ok, I still don't understand why it's so urgent." She said as she looked over the papers.
"I came to an understanding that nothing has changed around here." He said as he put his hands on her table and leaned in towards her. His eyes bore into hers.
"What do you mean?"
"I heard that you're dating one of the engineers." He said, more angrily than he intended.
"That's my own business."
"I'm just curious if Bruce noticed the different taste on your lips when you left the presentation
