She watched Rory’s expression; Sofie could tell that her roommate wanted to interject, albeit mindfully. “Can I ask you something?” Sofie nodded, knowing what was coming next. “Sure.”
“Do you think you might be catching feelings for this woman? You seem positively elated whenever you talk about her.” Rory paused to add, “I’m just curious if you think this could turn into something more serious. Or is it just a fling?”
Sofie considered the question. “You know, I never expected to be so drawn to her. At first, it was some fun and kinky sex; Gabriella taught me some interesting things! But today,” the assistant shook her head, “I don’t know, today wasdifferent.I didn’t feel this imbalance between our identities, you know? She spoke to me like an equal, like a friend, rather than a boss.”
“Sofie, youarean equal. Just because you are younger and only just starting your career doesn’t mean that you don’tpossess the potential to be as successful,” Rory noted. “Do you know how she feels about you? Did you discuss it?”
Shaking her head, Sofie replied, “No, we didn’t. I didn’t have the guts. And besides, I’m not even sure I know howIfeel.I know that I love being around her, I love talking to her, and, of course, the sex is absolute fire. But she’s myboss. How could I even start a conversation like that?”
Thoughtfully, Rory commented, “True; that does complicate things. But considering all of the personal and intimate time you’ve spent together, I don’t think it would seem out of line, you know?”
“Mmmm, maybe you’re right.” Sofie furrowed her brow, chewing on her bottom lip. Her stomach felt like it was in knots. The truth bubbled like bile from within, and if Sofie was being honest with herself, she knew their connection was beyond employer and employee. Rubbing her temples, Sofie confessed, “Rory, I think Iloveher. Ah! It’s so scary even to say those words out loud!”
Her roommate rose from her seat to put an arm around Sofie. “It’sokay!Obviously, spending that much time with someone can deepen the connection, particularly if you are hooking up.” Reassuring Sofie, Rory looked into her eyes. “And who knows? Maybe she feels the same about you.”
“Do you think I should tell her how I feel? Honestly, every day gets harder between her and me because my heart is so drawn in. But there is definitely something between us; I canfeelit,” Sofie emphasized.
Shrugging, Rory answered. “Sure, why not? I think it’s the only way that you’ll know for sure. I guess the only question is whether or not you think it will affect your job.”
Sofie shook her head. “I don’t think so. Ms. Galena has always remained professional when it comes to that sector of ourrelationship. In fact, she is amazing at compartmentalizing our intimacy from our work.”
“Well, then, maybe you already have your answer. I think you should do it. Why waste any more time?” Rory remarked. “At least this way, you’ll have an answer from her, and I think it’s possible that she feels the same way. And if she doesn’t, you can move on, right?”
Sofie weighed her options. She knew that Rory was right; Sofie didn’t want to waste any more time or remain confused by her feelings. But she was slightly intimidated; Gabriella Galena was a force of nature, and Sofie didn’t want to risk losing her if her boss didn’t feel the same way. “Yeah, I agree. It’s been hard on me over the past few weeks. I think by telling her, I’ll at least get some clarity.”
“That’s the spirit! I fully support you. When do you think you’ll talk to her?” Rory asked as she stepped away from the table.
Mashing her lips together, Sofie shook her head. “I’m not sure. I know she’ll be away from the office tomorrow, so maybe the day after?” Her roommate approached Sofie, offering a hug. “Don’t worry, girl. You’ve got this. But I need to get to bed now. Goodnight.”
Embracing Rory, Sofie nodded, feeling more confident after her talk with Rory. “Yeah, you’re right. I do, and it will be fine, no matter what. I really need to know how she feels.”
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Sofie felt assured in her decision.And who knows? Maybe she feels that exact same way about me. There’s only one way to find out!

“Oh my god, that wasincredible!” Gabriella threw her head back on the pillow, patting Sofie’s hair as her assistant lay between her legs. At Gabriella’s request, the women had gotten together for another late-night tryst after work. But instead of their usual location of fooling around in the office, she had insisted that they return to Gabriella’s penthouse.
Sofie looked up to gaze at Gabriella with an accomplished grin. Wiping a smear of wet from the corner of her mouth, Sofie remarked, “Wow, yeah, I could feel the orgasm erupt from your body. My pussy is still tingling by how good you fucked me, too.”
“Come here; I want to feel you against me,” Gabriella urged, desiring to feel Sofie’s warm skin upon her own. Beside her head lay the discarded dildo that she had used on Sofie an hour before; she pushed it out of the way as Sofie crawled on top of her. As she wrapped her arms around Sofie, Gabriella felt a sense of peace.
She and Sofie had fallen into a comfortable sexual groove that felt utterly satisfying; her worries and anxiety melted away whenever they could enjoy each other physically.
As Gabriella’s breathing returned to normal, she heard Sofie whisper something inaudible. “Sorry? What was that?”
Clearing her throat, Sofie repeated herself. “I asked if I could kiss you. Would that be okay?”
Gabriella chuckled nervously. “Um, I-I don’t know. I’m not really much of a kisser, to be honest. That is more of a personal act with me.” She felt at a loss for words, but Gabriella didn’t want to hurt Sofie’s feelings. As she continued to stroke Sofie’s hair, she asked, “Is that okay? Sorry, it’s nothing personal.”
She felt Sofie’s head nod, although the assistant didn’t verbally reply. Suddenly, Gabriella felt a twinge of discomfort; the energy seemed to shift within the confines of her massive bedroom suite. Unsure of how Sofie felt, Gabriella persisted, “Hey, are you okay? You’re so quiet right now.”
Gabriella felt Sofie take a deep inhale as she moved out of her embrace. Sofie raised herself on her elbows to look at Gabriella.
“Um, yeah, I’m okay. But, I, um, I wanted to talk to you about something.” Sofie was careful with her words, which worried Gabriella.Wow, she sounds so serious! What’s going on?But she knew it was important to be patient with her.
“Sure, tell me what’s on your mind,” she said, coaxing Sofie to open up. Gabriella was still in the post-glow of her explosive climax and felt light and relaxed.
Appearing slightly hesitant, Sofie gazed at her with warm, brown eyes. “Okay, sorry, I’m just a bit nervous.” Taking another breath, she began again.
