Second Chances Ch. 01 - Teaser (Patreon)

It was Wednesday morning, just as the first coffee break hit, that Dave strolled into the office of his boss, one Damaris Whitaker. She looked up at the man, her gray eyes catching his brown ones as he walked into her office. Damaris straightened up and stood, walking over to the tall and brawny man expectantly.

“I do hope you have something for me, David?” the older woman asked, her womanly voice almost commanding him to hand over the report.

“Got it done last night and went over it this morning with a few additions and addendums for clarity,” Dave said to her, handing her the report.

“Damn, that was fast!” the redheaded woman told him. “How did you manage that? I for sure thought you would have needed another day to complete it!”

“Got a sudden burst of energy last night and just figured I’d burn it away by knocking this out ASAP,” Dave told his MILFy boss.

“Chug a few Monsters to get it done?”

“Ran into an old friend last night, one I haven’t seen in years! It was good to reconnect with her after so much time had passed,” Dave told her with a grin.

“Her? A friend friend, or a girlfriend?” Damaris questioned with a knowing smile.

“My best friend growing up! We went our separate ways after high school, but with her being back in the city, it was only a matter of time before we ran into each other!” Dave chuckled.

“Sounds like there’s plans in the works!” Damaris giggled.

“We’re hanging out on Thursday evening! Just like old times!” Dave responded.

“Well, I for one am happy to see you upbeat and full of life! You’ve been such a grump lately and a few of the folks in the office have taken notice,” Damaris told him.

“I have, too. Been trying to keep my attitude going upwards, but it’s been tough with the way things are lately,” Dave replied.

“I hear you on that, David. Too much bullshit and garbage going around these days, and not enough people talking sense,” Damaris huffed, having a good idea of what he was getting at.

“You don’t have to tell me that! But thankfully, a little ray of sunshine has found its way into my life!” Dave sighed as he turned to leave.

“I’ll bet! Be sure to get a start on the Wilkinson contract before you finish for the day. Oh, and David?” Damaris called out.

“Yeah?”

“If you plan to kiss that girl, you make sure she feels it. Women want to know that you are there to be a man for them, not a boy,” Damaris said with a slight smirk.

“Will do, boss!” Dave laughed as he closed the door behind him.

As he shut the door, Dave noted a slight air of despondence around Damaris. He wasn’t sure what that was about, but if it came up again, he might bring it up. While this woman was his boss, she was also someone he wanted to be sure was OK. Dave didn’t like it when those he knew were in a bad spot and did everything he could to make sure they were doing all right, no matter who it was.

He shifted his focus back to his break and headed for the break room, hoping to grab some coffee before it was gone. Dave smiled as he walked in, seeing a fresh pot just finishing brewing, and a bag of beans from Balzac’s sitting right next to it. The man perked up at this and smiled even wider when he saw that there was a box of donuts from 6ix Donuts in downtown.
