"Do you want more sugar," Lana asked Juliet with a bright smile on her face as they stood in the break room of their office... it was a Friday and most days Juliet came in for work... They were slowly wrapping up the projects with Hult Hotel, and they kept getting calls from people who wanted to work for Them... everything seemed to be going great and nothing out of the ordinary for over a week... No one had tried to break into Juliet's house, and Alex made sure he came from worn earlier even though the tension between them had slowly started to increase. And it wasn't the bad kind of tension, another kind... thinking about it alone, made Juliet's heart start to race... They had breakfast and dinner together, but after the kiss they had shared, Alex barely came to her... He seemed nervous around her, and she had a kind of inkling why because she felt the same way too. Juliet wished she had someone she could talk about it with without feeling too embarrassed and these were the times she missed Florence, she was more experienced in that area than she was and Juliet wasn't sure if she wanted to talk about something like that over the phone "Juliet!" Lana called out to Juliet the second time... the sugar spoon in her hand as she waited for Juliet's response... Lana's voice snapped Juliet out of her reverie, and Juliet raised her eyes to look at her coworkers, her cheeks a bit flushed, and her eyes filled with confusion... "What?" He asked, and Lana shook her head... "I asked if you wanted more sugar," Lana replied, and Juliet nodded. "What has your mind so occupied... you have been out of it since earlier, " Lana asked as they drank their coffee, and Juliet contemplated a bit if she should tell Lana about it... "Did you get yourself a boyfriend, " Lana added, and Juliet's eyes grew slightly wide, causing Lana to chuckle... "My guess is always right... so what is the problem with him? " Lana asked, and Juliet shook her head... "No, it's not that, he is good to me," Juliet said, Alex was the sweetest, and he made her feel happier... "Then what is it? What's troubling you, " Lana asked, her full attention on Juliet... Juliet sighed deeply and looked out of the break room to make sure no one was close by... she walked to the door and locked it before walking back to where lana was standing... lana was really curious now... "So... we started dating about two months ago and..." Juliet trailed off, unsure of how to put it in words... "We haven't... we...haven't done it... but I think we might do it soon..." Juliet explained in a low voice... Her cheeks really flushed now, a smile appeared on lana's face as she listened to juliet... "Oh..." Lana said, and juliet let out a deep breath before continuing... she moved closer to lana and whispered something in lana's ear that made lana grin... "Oh, I get it now!" lana said excitedly, and a nervous smile appeared on Juliet's face... "I can help you with that, are you free after work, I know just the place we can go to..." lana said excited about it, and juliet nodded, feeling all giddy inside... she couldn't help but smile... It was exciting to have someone like a friend, and even though lana was a bit too hyper, unlike her, she was a nice person who only wanted the good of others... juliet was looking forward to their friend ship... "I can't wear this!" juliet whispered to lana, her face completely flushed as her eyes travelled around the store they were in, unlike her lana looked excited and had a lingering smile on her face... "Trust me, any man will go crazy if they see you in this!" lana said and picked up a red Sexy lingering that made Juliet's face become as red as a tomato... "Okay, how about this!" lana asked and picked up another sexy lingering, but even though it was in a different colour, juliet was unsure if she could pull it off... it made her heart race... "I'm not taking any excuses. This will look good on you," Lana said and walked away before juliet could say anything more... juliet sighed deeply and continued walking around the store... and then her eyes fell on a beautiful night gown... it was a pink, transparent night gown that had a kind of beautiful sleeve. It was sexy and at the same time pretty, juliet picked it up, and a smile appeared on her face. she wondered if she could really wear it... she didn't want to seem like a novice and wanted to put a bit of effort into whether they were going to become... intimate... "Wow," Lana said when she came to where juliet was and saw what she was holding... "Wow, is lovely...I picked this out for you and this for me in case I get a boyfriend one day," Lana said, and both ladies chuckled... ___________________ ____________________ Juliet stood in front of the mirror in her bathroom and stared at her reflection... her cheeks flushed as she took in her appearance... she bit her lips and sighed deeply before face palming herself... she had asked lana about where she could get a "Sexy lingerine" and this wasn't what she was expecting at all... lana had convinced her to take it, but now that she was putting it on and staring at her reflection, she wasn't sure if she could wear it... only , imagination of Alex staring at her made her die of embarrassment... she was about to pick up her robe when she realised she had left it in the room... Juliet sighed deeply and left the bathroom in the lingering... but immediately she stepped out she froze completely in her tracks. Her heart almost dropped when she saw a familiar figure standing in her room by the entrance... his eyes falling on her and his jaw almost dropping...
