Welcome Home ** Ruby pov. Amelia, can I have a word?” Of course, Katherine.” Her voice is barely above a whisper. I stare at Katherine leads her away. Surely, Katherine wouldn’t hurt Amelia? Remembering the fear in Amelia’s face, I’m suddenly not so sure. It seems my worries were for nothing, because a few minutes later, Amelia returns, relief evident on her face. What happened? “Nothing. Just normal work stuff.” No way am I letting it go. I want to know what’s going on in this office. So, what we were discussing before…?” I don’t dare mention the ritual again, but I’m not going to stop until I have an answer. Amelia lowers her voice so much that I have to lean close to hear her. “I can’t tell you. You’ll only get brought in on it once you’ve been working here for a certain amount of time.” That makes sense. Confidential business information isn’t given out to new employees. Then why do I still get the feeling that there’s something way more than standard business practice going on here? Look, don’t ask questions, ok? You’ll know soon enough.” I don’t want to get Amelia in trouble, so I nod. “Alright.” I try my best to focus on work and not check my phone every two seconds. ** Ruby pov The next few days pass with surprising smoothness. Katherine’s vindictiveness goes back to her normal level. Klaus doesn’t talk to me except to exchange work instructions. Amelia still perches on the end of my desk and chats whenever we both have a minute. Kelly remains absent. The worst is that while I miss him, I find myself missing Klaus too. It doesn’t make any sense-I barely know Klaus. But he’s going out of his way to avoid me, giving me instructions mostly by email. I know he’s a dick, but he’s growing on me. I find myself craving one-on-one time with him, even if it’s not the sexy variation. Two weeks after I slept with Klaus, I come home from work to find Kelly sitting in the living room. KELLY!” I throw myself at him, joy and relief overwhelming all other thoughts. I kiss him, holding tightly to his jacket, worried he’ll disappear at any moment. “Welcome home.” Hey.” He smiles fondly at me. “I was wondering if you missed me, but I guess this answers that question.” Of course, I missed you! I’ve been miserable since you left.” No need to mention that part of that misery is due to Klaus’s avoidance of me as well as Kelly’s. I push the guilty thought aside. Will is back, and my joy is completely genuine. That’s all he needs to know. I know we should talk, but talking seems unimportant right now. I kiss him, delighted when he responds just like he always does. Maybe things between us aren’t broken beyond repair. Kelly removes his shirt, giving me access to his chest, which I eagerly take advantage of. I kiss every inch of skin I can reach, letting my hands roam over him, loving the feeling of his muscles flexing under my fingers. I shuffle down to his pants, untying them to reveal his hardening cock. Kelly tilts his head back with a throaty moan as I take him into my mouth. I’ve never been a big fan of giving blowjobs, but right now, I’m so delighted to have him back that I’d happily give him a thousand blowjobs. I swirl my tongue around the head of his cock, tasting the salty pre-come. Kelly is fully hard now, panting. urgently, his hands twining in my hair. I let him guide my movements, swallowing his cock as deeply as I can. His hips thrust up to meet me. Saliva escapes my mouth, slathering his cock further. My jaw is aching. but all I care about right now is making Kelly
feel good. He shouts my name as he comes into my mouth with hot pulses. I manage to swallow most of it, smiling in triumph. My own body is urgently demanding release. I pull Kelly in for a kiss. He responds sloppily, still dazed with pleasure. I deepen the kiss, grinding myself against his leg. There are too many clothes, and I work to rectify that. My top comes off, then my skirt. Finally, I tug Kelly’s pants the rest of the way down his legs. He starts thumbing my nipples, making them even harder than they already are. I can feel his cock rising against my leg. God, I am so ready. The bed is too far away and the couch is too small, so I get onto my hands and knees on the floor. Take me hard,” I whisper. Kelly gets down on the floor behind me. He pushes into me, slowly and oh so gently. I grit my teeth in frustration. I want him to fuck me hard as Klaus did. Shit, I did not just think of Klaus right now. Stop thinking about him, now! I push myself back onto Kelly’s cock, focusing on the feeling of him filling me up. He’s not as bit as Klaus is. Shut up, Ruby! Kelly starts pumping into me, with increasing speed, but still tenderly when what I really want is to be taken so hard that I’m seeing stars. This is all I’m going to get, though, so I’d better get used to it. I bring my hand to my clit, rubbing quickly and shoving myself back onto Kelly’s cock as hard as I can. It’s a good thing I gave Kelly a blowjob first because it takes me longer than usual to come. I manage to keep my traitorous thoughts mostly in check, my hand flying over my clit. Kelly holds onto my hips, controlling my movement somewhat. I want to cry in desperation. I’m so close, I just need a little bit more… He brings his hands to my breasts, rubbing over the smooth skin. His hands are warm and firm, and just what I need. I slam myself back so hard that the slap of our flesh is louder than our labored breathing. I close my eyes, letting the orgasm wash over me. My body clenches, squeezing Kelly’s cock as I come. I fall onto my forearms, gasping for breath. Kelly keeps thrusting, chasing his second release. A minute or so later, he comes too. He lies down next to me, leaving us connected by his softening cock. The floor is hard and uncomfortable, but being in Kelly’s arms again more than makes up for it. I twist around, letting his cock slip out of me so that I can kiss him. Kelly sighs, resting his head on top of mine. I’ve missed you.” “Me too,” I breathe back. We stay that way for a while, but eventually, the desire to clean up overwhelms me. I bring a washcloth back for Kelly, and we get dressed. I sit down on the couch next to him, suddenly nervous. The makeup sex was amazing. Now, we need to talk. “So.. you’re back for good?” “Maybe.” Maybe? What does that mean? Please, Kelly, stay. I love you. We can get past this,” I want to stay, I do… but there’s something I want from you too. I want you to quit your Job, The breath seems to leave my body. “What?” I’m actually surprised you went back, given what happened. I’m not comfortable with you working for the man you cheated on me with.” But – but – it’s my job. You know how huge this job is for me, Kelly.” “I know how important your job is to you, but I want to see how important this relationship is to you.” The breath seems to leave my body. “What?” I’m actually surprised you went back, given what happened. I’m not comfortable with you working for the man you cheated on me with.” “That’s not fair. You know what you mean to me. I’m not going to sleep with Klaus again, but that doesn’t mean I can’t work for him.” Kelly folds his arms, glaring at me. “I want you to choose me over him.” It’s not a choice! You’re my boyfriend, he’s my boss. I choose you to love and him to work for.” “I see. Is this your final word? He’s probably right. I should be only too happy to do whatever he wants to save our relationship. I want us to work, Kelly, I do, just… not that. Please, ask me to do anything else, but not that. I find that I can’t look at him. I’ve just gotten him back, and I may be about to lose him again. I’m not sure if my heart can take that. T. B. C
