Now It's Out in the Open (Natealie)

Kissing Nate felt so incredibly right. It felt as if they’d dropped all barriers and pretenses and could finally be themselves. Together. In that moment, she was more than glad that she had given him a second chance so that they could experience that time together. She pulled him closer to her, wanting to remove any and all distance that might have still existed between them. Close was never close enough.

Her head bucked in response to him breaking away to lock the door, her head dropping a little and her hands instinctively travelling up to her lips in shock. Who knew that something could be that addicting? She felt so entirely out of control, but despite everything, she liked it.

When he returned, she let him take charge without argument. She felt herself be lifted onto the desk, which only made her reach behind her and sweep things away to make more room. Only the picture on her desk and her laptop got careful enough attention to be placed lovingly on the chair behind the desk.

It was unusual for her to be that much of a team player in any situation, but she thought that just that once, she could let it slide. Nate could have his fun this once, and then he could see what he was really getting into. Besides, at that point, she wanted him bad enough not to argue with the way that she got him.

>>”We’re going to have to go to HR at some point. This is definitely fraternization.”

”At some point,” Natalie breathlessly pointed out. Some point was not that point. That point was for other things. She tugged at his shirt and popped open a few buttons with hasty fingers before pulling him, as best she could from her position, onto the desk with her. ”Now shut up about the paperwork and kiss me.”
