You can see my previous post for context, although not much is really needed.
After our initial encounter, Jamie and I decided that the office did not need to know about what had previously happened between us. While no rules were broken, it would not have neccessarily been great for either of our carreers. From then on the flirtation we had around the office continued and was actually even more intense. The thought of knowing that the other person was ready to ravage you if given the opportunity made the distance we kept all the more tantalizing. There were a few moments when we would be the only people in the break room and we’d use the opportunity for some light touching or whispering in the other’s ear.
This continued for the next few months. We texted now and then but tried to refrain as best we could. The first week of December rolls around and it’s time for our Christmas party. Normally our CEO books a reception hall for the party but this year was different. Our company had just aquired a large commercial building that had been for sale due to it’s need for renovation. The third floor of this building was to be rented out to other companies while the first two were to be used by us. The party was being thrown in the new building so that everyone could see it and celebrate the growth of the company.
