Jeffery's office and settled back into a chair as he closed the door.
Before the end of the week her dry spell would be over. She and Jennifer would both be wet as they brought each other pleasure. She would seduce the innocent-looking young woman if it was the last thing she did.
Jenny felt the sudden urge to run into the bathroom again and throw some cool water on her face. When Ms. Jennings' hand touched her ass, she was shocked but also pleasantly surprised. It had to be an accident, but still.
"I need to use the bathroom again," Jenny said to Mike and would have rushed away, but he stopped her with a touch on her arm.
"Oh, no you don't, Caffey. I saw the looks Jennings kept giving you. She wanted to eat you up. Or maybe I should say, go down on you."
Jenny's mouth dropped open and she punched Mike's arm. "Michael Allen MacGillicuty! Watch your mouth," she whispered. "They could hear you."
Mike snorted. "The door is closed, and I can bet you Jeffery is too busy running his mouth off. He's such a kiss-ass."
"You have no shame, do you?"
"Nope." He shrugged. "Bane keeps asking me out. He just won't quit. And I keep telling him no."
Jenny could no longer keep silent over what she saw between Mike and Jeffery back in December. "Mike, don't act like you're the innocent party in all this. Remember the Christmas party last year? You and Jeffery were pretty chummy then. And you do tend to flirt with him from time to time."
"Listen, I blame the alcohol for the way I acted at the party. I learned my lesson pretty well after that," he grumbled and rubbed a hand over his mouth.
Jenny touched Mike's arm. "What did you—?" Before she could finish the phone buzzed.
"Jennifer?" Jeffery asked through the speaker.
Jenny picked up the phone and listened. A guest stood at the front desk and Mike took care of them. Jenny hung up the phone and scribbled on a piece of paper.
"He wants me to order their lunch from Giovanni's."
Mike mumbled something under his breath. Jenny grabbed the phonebook to place the food order. "What did you say?"
"Nothing. I just don't like the way he treats you. You think he would tell The Barracuda you're his assistant."
Jenny shrugged, not surprised in the least. "Why would I be upset? We both know what type of guy Jeffery is. Plus, even if he told Ms. Jennings I'm his assistant, she wouldn't have cared anyway."
"I could be wrong, but she seems very interested in you. I can't believe how oblivious you are."
"Oh, come on. Jennings is one of the richest women in New York City. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if she ruled the whole east coast. I'm a little nobody trying to make my way through school and this job without going crazy. And besides, there's no way she's a lesbian." Jenny whispered the last part.
"Want to bet on it?"
"Mike, stop teasing me. I'm busy." She turned away from him and began to call for the take-out. If this were a fairytale, perhaps a woman like Barbara Jennings would go for plain old Jennifer Caffey, but this was real life. Nothing would happen between them even if she did gain the courage to try and find out if Barbara would give her the time of day.
Chapter Four
By the time their lunch had arrived, Barbara was starving. She tried to eat as healthy as she could because she didn't have the time to cook homemade meals and knew she could pack on the pounds from the stress and long days at work. While Jeffrey wolfed down a meatball sub with a side order of mozzarella sticks, Barbara dug into her grilled chicken salad. Her mood had improved after Jennifer knocked on the door and came in to give them their food.
Barbara had tried to look disinterested when Jennifer put the food on the desk and left without a word, but she hadn't been able to resist another peak at the young woman's ass. And God, what a fine ass. She definitely wouldn't mind releasing some tension with the fair Jenny. Barbara appreciated a fine butt as well as the next person, and found Jennifer's
