My dream love

by Giyani
O for the love of… arg! Why does this keep happening to me! This is my second shoe I’ve lost this month. These heels just isn’t the same anymore! I’ve been walking this path for months now since I got this job at Aimcorp. Only difference today is that I look like I’m a good dressed drunk person! I finally reach my desk where I keep my pumps hidden in one of my drawers for when my feet starts to hurt during the day. But today, they will just have to do, there is no time to go and buy new ones.
“Sarah! Thank the heavens you are here! I though you were never coming in!”
“But I’ts only 7:30?”
“What? Ya whatever! I need you to urgently type out this letter for me.” Mikyla turned and walked away like she was never even speaking to me. She is the head of our department and she makes sure we know it. She is tall, well build with long black hair that is always so shiny it makes you feel memorized if you stare to long at it.
“yes sure” I mumble as I turn back to my table reading the letter she forced into my hand.

“O shi…” I yelled as I found myself holding on to Luca’s middle. For a minute there I couldn’t move, I just clasped his shirt in my hands hoping not to completely embarrass myself by falling onto him.
“I’m sooo sorry! Today is not my day!” He said, but I’m sure that should have come from my mouth. But I still didn’t say a word, because in the 6 months I’ve been working here this is the first words he have spoken to me. It felt like the heavens opened up to me for the two times my heels got broken. Starring into those beautiful green eyes, his skin soft as if someone photoshopped him. I could still feel his hands supporting my arms at the elbow. His touch firm but gentle at the same time. These hands could not hurt a fly.
“Sarah… I think its save to let go now… luckily you are wearing flat shoes otherwise I’m sure we would have ended up on the floor.” I immediately released my hands from his shirt and stepped back, bend down to pick up the letter which caused all of this. As I looked up I could feel my face turning scarlet red of embarrassment.
“I’m sorry this was totally my fault, I wasn’t watching where I was going.”
“Don’t sweat it! No one got hurt, so I’ll say it looks like my luck is changing!” And off he went. Well I could just die right now! Because as I started walking again I noticed practically everyone in the office was starring at me. As I finally sat down at my table the only thing I could think about was that he knew my name. How did he know my name since we have never spoken. EVER.

Days has passed since my encounter with Luca. Work has kept me busy and my non existing personal life has kept me sane. Me and my black cat, spice has been laying low just watching TV and relaxing on my balcony where I watch the New Yorkers pass by with cell phones to their ears as if it was part of them. Everyone seemed to have a personal life except me. My mom blamed it on spice. She said “ its that darn cat that cursed you!” then I usually just laugh at her and hug spice a little tighter that the previous time.

Today at the office everyone was running around because the owner of Aimcorp was paying us a visit. I personally have never seen him before. Just heard that he is a real ball buster. I just sat at my table minding my own work doing what ever it was Mikayla told me to do.
“Sarah, could I please borrow you for a moment?” Luca’s voice came from behind. It startled me so that I swirled my chair around and kicked him right on the knee with my sharp pointed shoe.
“O crap not again!” I said jumping up and hitting him with the back of my head on his nose as he was bending forward to rub his knee. I slowly went back into my chair with my hands over my mouth, just looking at this gorgeous man in front of me and in pain because of me was enough to make me cry. One single tear formed out of my eye and slowly found his way over my cheek. I couldn’t bare looking at him I was just to embarrassed. My whole body started to tingle as I felt his finger on my face. He was bend down on one knee and his thumb was gently catching the tear before it fell of my cheek.
“Pucker up beautiful! I’m still alive, I maybe have a broken nose, but this just means I have someone who shares my bad luck.”
“Once again I’m so sorry Luca!” Before I could say anything else he threw his hands in the air which brought me to an immediate loss of words.
“No one understands bad luck better than I do. So please stop saying you’re sorry and please come and help me. I could really use it right about now.” He held out his hand, offering it to me so I could get out of my chair.
“I need you to help me make these darn copies for Victor’s business profile I’m suppose to present to him today. And like any guy I waited until the last minute possible to do it.

For some reason we walked to the copy room and he never let go of my hand. Holding it firmly as if he’s scared that if he let go I will bump into him again or something. I started making the copies he asked for while he was busy at the back making it all into a presentation for Victor. I saw myself standing on the edge of a cliff. Bright stars shining down on me as if it was my personal light following me. Slowly his hands came from behind starting at the back of my hips slowly moving towards my stomach. I could feel my whole body melting into his touch, leaning back resting my head on his chest. This gave him full opening to my neck. Slowly kissing me I could feel his stubble beard against my satin skin. The wind softly blew my long dress against him, I took my hands each on both his sides. Holding onto his belt as if this was the only thing keeping my up straight.
“Sarah”
“Luca” His kisses was so seductive I just couldn’t concentrate.
“Sarah…”
“Sarah! Your dress is being sucked in by the printer!”
“O Shield!” I realized I was daydreaming and abruptly awoken from this peace of heaven because the printer was eating me! I yelled and with one hard pull I ripped my dress from the printer, lost my balance and fell back onto luca. But he caught me with one arm and with the other arm secured our landing. We got twisted while falling, so that he ended up on top of me.
“I wish I was part of whatever dream you just had” I must still be dreaming because did he just say that? I think my cheeks were on fire!
As he slowly started to let his body weight lay on me I could feel his denim on my leg where my dress ripped. But more important I could finally feel those full red lips on mine and I could tell this wasn’t a dream…
