4 - Tied Down

 

She vaguely noticed the floor they stopped on - it’s difficult to be mindful of her surroundings when the warmth of the man’s arm settling around the small of her back is distracting enough as it is -  as he guides her out of the elevator carefully and into another door, this time into an elegant double glass door, then towards a brightly-lit office reception huge enough to fit about seven of her own cubicle office inside.

A beautiful man about Nino’s age is immediately striding forward to greet them when they get inside, Nino’s steps faltering, watching the man bowing his head at them in greeting, wondering what kind of weird dream she’s having, one that involves pretty men that look like they come straight from the pages of those glossy idol magazines her sister liked reading in high school.

“Jun-kun, hold all my calls, please.” the man, Ohno-san, says, his voice loud enough to be heard, not even waiting for the guy he called Jun to answer before he is once again leading Nino into another door, a wooden one this time, Ohno pushing it open and gently steering her inside before closing it behind them.

The office this time around is sophisticated in its simplicity; the wall separating this and the reception outside is glass decorated with off-white colored blinds that ke eps the inside of the office from being seen outside.

The unexpected privacy makes her uneasy for some reason, especially when she realizes they are still standing so close together and she’s almost backed against the closed door the same way she was earlier when they were in the elevator.

She clears her throat and tries to step away, faintly hearing Ohno’s amused chuckling in return. Annoyed, she holds her head high and throws the man a glare as she tries to wriggle free from his hold.

“I’m not going to run off so you can take your hand back now, Sir.” She bites out with all the annoyance she could muster, even though she knows she’s being unreasonable. Certainly, it’s not just the man’s fault she’s here, and she knows for a fact that Ohno didn’t force her here either.

“It’s Ohno Satoshi, Ninomiya-san, whichever name you prefer to call me with is fine, really,” Ohno says, unperturbed, hand sliding across the curve of her hips this time around and staying there. Nino wants to tell him off but she can’t find the energy to do so, especially when she herself finds it hard to say something she knows she doesn’t mean.

“Fine, Ohno-san then. Please get off me.” She hisses, without heat, feeling her heart beating rapidly in her chest at the proximity. It doesn’t help that the man sure looks like he’s enjoying Nino’s obvious uneasiness immensely, though she can’t tell much by how softly he’s staring Nino over, his smile lethal enough to make her wet.

“Am I – all over you right now?”

“Don’t be cute,” she snaps, pushing his hand away and regretting it because then it ends up with her fingers twisted in the front of his suit, bringing her closer to him before she even realized what’s happening.

“I’m not doing anything, I promise,” he says, and this time he obviously takes pity on Nino and lets her go. “I just want to talk. Can I offer you anything, at least?”

She tsks and crosses her arms over her chest to cover the way her hands are trembling. “If you haven’t noticed it, I have a job I have to go to and it’s obviously not here so, can I go? If you really want to talk to me, we can do that during my lunch break. I’m guessing you already know where to find me.”

“Tell me which company you’re working for and I’ll make sure to let them know you’ll come in a little late, how’s that sound?”

She gasps, feigning horror. “What would you even do that for?”

“I found an opportunity to talk to you so I’m taking it,” he reasons, taking his suit jacket off as he speaks. Then he slides it over the back of the chair there and turns to face Nino again. “I know how this looks, but I swear I don’t mean you any harm. By now, you probably know why I’m doing this. You can make things easier by agreeing to meet me after your work is done so I won’t have to do something as drastic as chasing you.”

“W-What?”

He crosses the short distance between her and the chair he’d set his jacket down, his eyes never leaving hers. “I like you, Ninomiya-san. From the very first time I laid eyes on you, even. Will you go out with me?”

Despite knowing she is secretly swooning, she does her best to stand her ground. She may like him too, but that doesn’t mean she’s going to give in that easily.

Right?

“That’s nice, but what if I tell you I don’t want to?”

He frowns. “Why? Are you in a relationship with someone right now?”

She holds her head high in defiance. “And if I am? Will you let me go and leave me alone?”

“No,” he says, firmly. “If you haven’t noticed it, Ninomiya-san, I’m a very persuasive man. I don’t give up easily.”

“Good for you, but as it is, I have no intention of cheating with my – with whoever I’m going out with so, can I go now? I obviously don’t have the same luxury as yours since you’re clearly the boss around here, and if I don’t leave now, I’ll be late.” She turns then, reaching for the doorknob and stopping when she feels Ohno’s presence on her back, warm and sturdy and real.

She could feel her breath catching in her throat when his own warm breath tickles the back of her neck when he speaks, his voice sounds like a caress against her sensitive skin.

“Fine, but at least say goodbye properly before you go,” Ohno says, fingers catching her around the elbow, steering her around. Nino’s breathing accelerating before she realizes what is happening, eyes shutting close as he wheels her around. “Open your eyes and look at me, Ninomiya-san. Look at me when you say goodbye, please.”

She forces her eyes open, parts her mouth to say the words but nothing came out.

Ohno seizes that opportunity by leaning in forward and sealing his mouth on Nino’s, catching her offguard with a kiss that is both passionate and tender, one hand on Nino’s nape and the other on Nino’s waist, holding Nino close.
