***Sahana's P.O.V***

As I reached my desk, still blushing about the incident that had occurred in Arush's cabin, I saw something that drained all the color from my face.

No this couldn't be good at all! Oh holy fuck I'm a goner!!

An email was flashing on my laptop screen - it was from Arush.. I mean, Arush sir!

With widened eyes, I read the email, cursing myself with every word I read. Oh I so pity myself right now!!

'Dear Ms.Agarwal,

                       Since you are the idea-pitcher behind this current project, I would like to talk to you regarding the same over a meeting today from 9:30am onwards. The meeting would be in my cabin, and you would be filling me in regarding all the project updates during this meeting. 

Post lunch, we would be having a team meeting in Room 305 for the team updates, and I would like for you to be a part of that meeting as well.

Hoping to see you at sharp 9:30am,

Your's loving,

Arush Sharma

P.S - the meeting may take a while Ms.Agarwal since it is a very serious and important discussion.'

I bit my lip at the thought of what Arush might have had planned - oh obviously he's not calling me to his cabin to discuss about the project we all know that! 

Oh God he's not gonna let me be in peace is he?! Blood rose to my cheeks as his words from our previous encounter popped in my head, and I couldn't help smiling shyly to myself at the thought that Arush is going to make full utilization of this lone-time with me today!!

And then, all the blood drained from my face as I recalled the second half of his email - team meeting!! Which means I and he will be at a meeting, together!! Which means I'll be blushing there like I am right now!

Oh holy fuck!! He's gonna take advantage of me!!

But then, another thought popped into my head - what if it really was a meeting about the project?! The Arush I know is a workaholic asshole... and we are all employees for a big MNC! He can't just push aside work like all those CEO's they portray in those mushy mushy Wattpad stories right?!

Finally consoling myself with that thought, I got back to work, with my mind feeling exceptionally gleeful at the prospect of spending the whole morning with Arush, and blushing time-to-time at the thought of all the moves he would use to get close to me.

9:30am found me standing in front of Arush's cabin, knocking on his door. I was clutching onto my laptop and charger tightly, and holding my phone in the same hand too.

"Come in" he said in his usual business-like tone, and I entered, feeling rather nervous.

"Please take a seat... we'll begin our work shortly" Arush said seriously, not taking his eyes off his laptop screen.

"Yes sir" I said, taking a seat in front of his table and placing my laptop and charger on his table, all the while glancing nervously at him.

Arush didn't look at me, but was typing away in his laptop, with his perfect and beautiful eyebrows knotted and his plump lips pouted a little. 

I couldn't believe that I was kissing him like half 'n hour ago!!! I couldn't believe that his now vigorously typing fingers were actually on my waist half 'n hour ago!! I blushed as I realized that those plump lips of his were on mine half 'n hour ago!! 

I let out an involuntary giggle at the thought of having this serious workaholic dude as my husband, and spending romantic time with him. Would he be worrying about work and emails and all this stuff at those romantic moments too?!

Blushing, I looked up to see Arush looking at me through raised eyebrow, questioning me silently. I gave him a small smile and shook my head in denial and looked away quickly as the temptation to burst out laughing only grew stronger inside me.

Why you ask?! Okay picture this - this workaholic dude as a boyfriend. Would he remember birthdays and anniversaries?! Not that it's important, but still! Compare the dude who told all those mushy mushy stuff to me yesterday, to this serious workaholic boss of mine - are they legit the same person?!

"Sahana?! Sorry for keeping you waiting... that was an urgent email to my superior.. about our project status" Arush said, breaking my trail of thoughts.

"Oh no no... it's okay" I said reassuringly, giving him a small smile.

"Right, so would you please come a little closer?! Sit here so that it's easy for me to see you... I mean... what you're doing" Arush said, winking at me. 

He was indicating the side of the table that wasn't visible from the door and I knew very well that he wouldn't be working, or letting me work if I sat there! 

"No it's okay I'll sit here" I said, and without waiting for his reply, pulled a chair and placed it to his left, such that the place was clearly visible from the door, and sat there, behind the table. 

He couldn't do anything now!!

I took my laptop and charger too there and turned to look at him, who was looking at me through narrowed eyes - oh he's gonna be mad at me for this.

Arush pursed his lips and looked at me like a kid who'd been denied his treat, and I bit back a giggle - it wouldn't do well to poke an angry lion now, would it?!

Barely controlling my smile, I turned my attention to my laptop, as I opened the project file on my laptop and waited for him to continue.

"Okay right so work now" Arush said, as though coming out of a trance, and I giggled but didn't dare look at him.

I heard movement, and finally turned to find him bringing his chair close to mine and sitting right next to me, with his laptop right next to mine on the table.

"Two can play at this game" he said and winked, making himself comfortable on his chair.

"Right Sahana, so would you please explain to me this block and what you've done" he said, sounding business-like again, and indicating to a diagram on my laptop screen.

Slightly taken aback at his sudden change of behavior, I slowly started talking about the project and whatever work I'd done so far.

I was lost in my project, my passion, and completely oblivious to my surrounding, when all of a sudden, I felt a warm breath fanning my neck, and his musky cologne getting stronger. 

With my eyes as wide as saucers, I first looked up to the door, just to make sure that there was nobody peeking in. But the cubicle partition walls were pretty high so unless someone stood up or was walking by the door, they couldn't see what's going on here.

Feeling extremely relieved that nobody was looking this side, I turned my head to my right to look at Arush, only that I didn't find him. My eyes directly met his eyes at a very close proximity and my lips met something warm and soft, and a sharp pain on my lower lip told me that I was actually kissing Arush on the lips and he was biting my lower lip actually.

Before I could make out anything else, he had pulled away, slowly tugging my lower lip as he moved away and letting go off it, making me yearn for more.

"That's just to appreciate your passion for the subject, and also for this project, and also because I really missed you, and also because you looked exceptionally cute when you talk with such passion" he said in one go, blushing more than me!

I bit my lip in embarrassment and looked away, at a complete loss for words, and also because I really really really wanted to kiss him again!

"Have I told you before that you look really pretty?" he said huskily, sounding very dreamy.

Shyly, I turned to look at him, who was looking at me with warmth and adoration in his eyes. 

"You look even more pretty when you blush like this" he said, smiling at me, and I blushed even more at that, finally looking away from him as I was unable to hold that intense gaze any longer.

"So...this... is... uh.." I stuttered, forcing myself to turn my attention back to the project and failing miserably.

"Right... project" Arush said as though he was steeling himself, and I slowly resumed talking about the project, feeling extremely shy under his intense gaze.

I felt something warm on my shoulder, and his breath fanning my neck again, and in alarm, I slowly turned my head towards Arush, who wasn't looking at me, but was looking at my laptop screen.

I turned to my left, to find his left arm on the shoulder-rest of my chair, but his left hand was actually rubbing my shoulder rather softly and sensually.

"So what about this?" he breathed softly, indicating something on my laptop screen.

"Huh?! That...uh..." I stuttered under his touch, barely able to make out my surrounding.

My phone buzzed at that exact moment and I literally jumped, pushing Arush's arm away as I looked at my phone.

It was a message from Riya, asking where I was and if I was on leave. Sending her a quick reply that I was with Arush in a meeting, I put my phone back on the table and turned to look at Arush, who was smirking.

"Continue" he said and winked, and feeling extremely nervous, I moved slightly away from him and resumed talking about the project.

Everything was going smoothly and I was almost done talking, when I felt something warm on my lap. With my eyes growing wide in horror and blood rushing upto my cheeks, I stopped talking abruptly to look down at my lap, only to find Arush's large hand on it.

I looked up at him, who was looking innocently back at him, as though he'd not just placed his hand on my thigh!

Trying to act oblivious to his touch, I resumed talking, but started stuttering as a burst of new feelings and hormones started bubbling inside of me, when Arush slowly started to move his hand along my thigh.

"Are you alright Sahana?" he asked innocently, his left hand still moving along my thigh from top to bottom.

"I..uh..Arush... I.. I... I'm...d....d....d...done" I stuttered, feeling exceptionally hot.

"Good then... we'll have a team meeting at 2pm then" Arush said, finally removing his hand from my thigh and grasping my hand which was on the armrest of my chair.

"R...R....right" I stuttered, shutting down my laptop.

"Good.. See you soon then" he breathed, and before I knew it, his lips were on mine.

I had barely blinked when he had move back to his usual place, away from me, and winked at me before gazing at his laptop screen.

Feeling slightly confused and nervous, I grabbed my things and hurriedly exited his room, wondering what on Earth he had planned for the afternoon's meeting.

To be continued...
