Mr. Right...shouldn't it be Mr. Left? Since on your right hand is where the engagement ring goes, and the left ,the wedding ring. I don't just want to get engaged, I want to be married to my "p...
Today, is like any other day. I'm at work cataloging the new collection of Olmec artifacts we just got in this morning. I am expecting another delivery any time now for the Maya Indians. They were supposed to arrive at the same time.
I guess they're running a little late.
As I finish up the last item and put the log book near my computer to input later, I bump into a wall.
Or so I thought.
A pair of strong arms tugs me close so I don't fall. I look up into the most beautiful grey-green eyes I have ever seen...

"Are you alright Ma'am?" He asks in concern.
"Yes, thank you." I reply.
His hand comes up, gently stroking my chin. His lips descend. The closer our lips become the stronger the scent of mint, and his spicy cologne get.
His lips capture mine. The kiss is gentle, yet powerful. His arms wrap securely around me, thwarting any attempt at an escape...not that I'd want to.
He slowly pulls away, looking into my eyes. "Ma'am" I can't speak, the words are trapped in the black hole that formed in my head after that kiss.
"Ma'am!" He shakes me lightly.
I frown at him. What the heck is his problem?
"MA'AM!"
I come to, still looking into those beautiful, concerned eyes. "Yes, yes. I'm fine thank you."
I step away from him in embarrassment, leaning against my desk. "I'm sorry, I didn't see you there." I say.
He watches me for another second before he nods. "We have your shipment here." He motions behind him.
I frown at him. "Oh right! Sorry."
He cocks his head to the side frowning adorably before he turns away from me to get the shipment.
I watch him walk away, admiring the way the fabric of his pants frames his perfect ass.
"Lord help me..." I mumble.
I try and busy myself while they bring in the crates. As I get my bearings, they finish bringing the Mayan shipment in. I check it to make sure that everything is there and then I sign for it.
He smiles at me. "Have a good day miss."
I nod. "You too, thank you."
The dock gate is closed and I damn near pass out. "Lord you could have warned me, I'm just sayin'. I know all of your works are masterpieces, but Lord..did you have to show off with that man? Please warn me next time."
I hear a noise behind me. I spin around and see the security guard standing there like a deer in headlights.
"I didn't hear you talking to yourself." He says unblinking. Then slowly backs away, and hurries down the hall out of sight.
