So for the last three years I’ve been working at a research lab alongside my boss and her professor. During the pandemic we were limited to two people in at a time, so naturally we’ve got pretty close over the last two years. Hell I probably spend more time with her than her husband at this point, which is probably what led to this situation.
Anyway over the last two months or so our relationship kind of escalated from just friends to kind of flirty. I mean we’re both super into fitness so when she asked once during after work drinks if it was showing, I couldn’t help myself but tell her it was definitely showing in all the right places. It was that kind of just brushing the limits of saying something that might get us fired.
We ended up finally crossing the line last Friday at the annual work Christmas do. We ditched both of our bags and coats in our prof’s office, he’d already left for France and given my boss the spare key. Luckily it was the end office with no window apart from a pull down blind on the door for meetings. I mean no one was around when the party ended at 9 anyway, but it felt good to be isolated.
