Romance: My First Time With The Tycoon

by Ally Nelson

  “I only say it because it’s true,” he chuckled and then continued, “Because I asked two different ladies to two different events,” he shrugged nonchalantly.

  “Right,” Blair said, “so that woman from yesterday wasn’t your girlfriend?”

  “Nope.”

  “Is the woman from today your girlfriend, then?”

  Another shake of the head to indicate a no. Blair shot him a look that told him she was growing frustrated by the shortness of his replies.

  “I thought you said you will tell me everything I need to know!” she exclaimed, her tone seeping with annoyance at his vagueness.

  “I did,” he sighed, “I don’t really date seriously, so there’s your answer.”

  Of course, Blair thought to herself, of course she had to cross paths with the noncommittal casual type.

  Blair was quiet for a moment. “Why not?” she blurted out.

  “You’re asking me more questions than my therapist ever has,” he replied, chuckling, “it’s a free world. Now, can you tell me why exactly did you showcase this little theatrical performance with that poor boy James and followed me all the way over here?” He asked her.

  “It’s okay. He’s an asshole, so it doesn’t really matter,” Blair casually shook off his accusations, “and I don’t know - I just – it’s annoying you just kissed me and then disappeared forever,” she admitted finally.

  “Ah, right,” Daniel replied, “as far as my memory serves me right, you were the one who did that.”

  Blair rolled her eyes, “Don’t act like you didn’t enjoy it,” and it was met by a chuckle from Daniel.

  “You’re extra fiery today,” he told her.

  “It’s because of you though,” she said quietly, “you’re driving me nuts here.”

  “I’m probably not really the man of your dreams type hero, you know,” Daniel told her in a low voice, “you should probably stay away from me.”

  Blair stood there for a moment, staring back at him and drank in his words. “You’re right. Maybe I will.”

  But where Daniel expected her to walk away from him, instead she leaned on over and planted a firm kiss on her lips, not having a care in the world of who might see the two of them. Daniel’s resolve broke immediately and his hands snaked to her waist but just as he was about to deepen the kiss, Blair broke it off.

  “I think I’m going to look for James now. We’ll be leaving,” she told him before walking off.

  Daniel stood watching her retreating figure, “See you for your next appointment,” but it was of no use because she had already walked away.

  Chapter 9

  Four days passed and Thursday rolled on, which was the day of their next scheduled appointment. Blair took pride in the fact that she had managed to wash him out of his system with great success.

  Ever since their last encounter, Blair had made no further attempts to contact him or text him incessantly; she had resisted every urge and it made her feel very powerful. She felt confident that even though she was going to go see him today, it did not matter because he would not have that effect on her again – Blair was adamant that Daniel was no longer going to be involved in her life in such a way and would instead just be a distant blur in the past.

  Because, truly, even though being with him was exciting and thrilling, they had no future. Even if she was to overlook the massive differences they had, it would not have ever worked as he had made it perfectly clear that he was not interested in pursuing any sort of a relationship with her.

  Blair was back to being her old self pretty much as she parked her car and walked on over to the doors of the clinic. Once inside, the receptionist politely told her to wait her turn and she found herself inside the walls of the same room where she had met him for the first time, though this time she did not have to wear her dressing gown.

  It was a few moments till he finally walked in.

  “Oh, Blair!” he said happily as he noticed her sitting there, “nice to see you again this afternoon.”

  She nodded, “So are my reports ready, doctor?” She knew that calling her that would mildly annoy him and she the satisfaction of watching the side of his jaw tighten as she heard her utter those words.

  “Yes indeed they are,” he replied back, “Everything came back normal, I’m pleased to say. However, I’m going to prescribe you some dietary supplements that you should continue to take for a few months.”

  “Great,” she said, popping the ‘T’ noise, “I take this is our last meeting?” she asked him, with a casual shrug of the shoulders.

  Daniel watched her from a distance, “If you want,” he said but then almost immediately added, “so, do you want to?”

  Blair stole a quick glance towards his direction to see he was looking over to her intently, his gaze fixed onto her face as he waited for her reply. It only lasted a moment though as she quickly turned to look ahead once again.

  “I mean,” she started off coyly, “I do not really see a reason why to continue to keep seeing you. You are my doctor.”

  “You know I told you not call me that,” he admonished curtly but she just shot him back an expression of innocent puzzlement.

  “But surely, that is what you are, are you not?” she asked through hooded eyelashes.

  Daniel was started to look more annoyed by the second as he got up from his seat and started pacing around the room, “Why does it seem to me that you are holding a grudge against me for something that I don’t even know I did?” he asked her.

  Blair gave a coy smile, “Doctor, please. There is no place for grudges in a professional relationship such as ours,” she said.

  “Right,” replied Daniel, shooting her a long look, “strictly professional, you say?” he was walking over to her now ad she felt herself leaning in automatically towards his direction.

  “Yup,” she said, sounding out the ‘p’.

  He took one finger and traced it down the length of her arm, all the while maintaining eye contact. “You seemed to not remember that the last few times we met?” he was hovering dangerously close to her face now and her breathing was coming more rough and ragged than before.

  “Silly me,” she said dismissively in between breaths, “I probably forgot.” She stared back at him just as intensely, none of them wanting to be the first one to break.

  He slid one thumb up to his face, extending it over to the base of her lower lip to separate it. “I’ve been thinking about you all this time,” he said, his voice low and sultry.

  Blair felt her insides pool into her as he sounded out those words and she felt a nagging ache in her that longed for her to drop all her pretenses and let him devour her right there. But she was going to be smarter than that and hold her ground. Uncomfortably, she clenched both her legs closer together.

  “Why is that?” she breathed out slowly.

  “Hm,” he told her, his thumb now sliding downwards to the curve of her neck, “how did you put it? You’re driving me nuts.”

  And then the dam broke loose – his hands went up the side of her face and he crashed his lips to her. After a moment of just kissing, she eagerly responded back but she realized she would not have been able to pull back even if she wanted to with the iron grip that he had on her. His hands were everywhere, groping and touching every part of her he could get in his reach.

  Blair’s mind had now gone hazy and she could barely string out one coherent word, let alone string out a sentence long enough to tell him to stop. So she did not process when he roughly pulled her down from the edge of her seat and then instructed her to go on over to the table and lie there –she only nodded happily and agreed.

  She felt like she was in bliss as his hands worked at the front of her shirt and unbuttoned it. He then leaned over and pressed his entire form up against her and she could feel just how much he was enjoying this as well.

  “Daniel,” she breathed out heavily, “what are we-,” she quickly stopped her words as she felt him tugging on the base
of her jeans.

  “We need to get rid of these,” he looked to her grinning as he slid down her jeans one leg at a time. “They’re getting in the way.”

  Blair closed her eyes. She felt like she was in pure bliss as his hands worked their magic down at the base of her core; letting out delighted sounds of pure happiness. “

  “I can’t wait any longer,” he emerged from underneath, “I need you.”

  Blair could only respond in a series of groans but she found herself nodding furiously. And then in the flash of a moment, he was undressed and back onto her. There was a sharp intake of breath from her as she felt him break into her but his reassuring gestures made sure to make her feel good.

  And then once the pain subsided, Blair felt her eyes roll back into head. She was in ecstasy.

  Chapter 10

  It had been a week since that eventful day at the doctor’s office and Blair couldn’t lie; it had been a few more time they had met up after, all reaching the same results. Blair was ecstatic – she felt like she had taken a hit of a drug and the high was too good to ever quit. Where she had always been disappointed by teenage boys and their manly bravados to please only themselves, Daniel made sure to fill out all those loopholes. He was strong and he took care of her so well afterwards – she could help but be hooked to him.

  And it seemed that he was in a similar situation – he had called her up several time since and once even showed up in the middle of the night outside her house. Blair was terrified her mother would wake up and find out but he had definitely made it worth her while.

  Right now, Blair in situated in Janet’s living room; the two of them had not gotten the chance to hang out a lot but had taken the time out today to especially meet up. In lieu of how busy the both of them had been, she had not filled her best friend in on the events that had transpired in the days before.

  “I swear to god,” Janet rambled on before her, “I cannot for the life of me figure out what to wear to Randy Olsen’s yearly pool bash. I want Kevin to notice me but I don’t want it to be so over the top, you know? Bee! Are you evening listening to me?” Janet said frustrated at the lack of attention her best friend was endowing upon her.

  “I am, I am. Kevin’s pool party,” Blair said sheepishly, looking over from the screen of her cellphone.

  “Uh, no you weren’t,” Janet said annoyed, “who are you texting anyway?” she said, suddenly poking up to view the screen from behind Blair’s shoulder.

  “Hey, go away,” Blair said, suddenly covering up the screen with her fingers, “I’m not texting anybody,” she defended herself meekly.

  “Right,” Janet said rolling her eyes, “is it James? I heard you two went on a date. You need to dish,” she continued, suddenly perked up at the idea.

  “Ugh no,” Blair dismissed, shaking her head furiously, “Not him. And just so you know, that wasn’t even a real date to be fair.”

  “Then who is it?” Janet pressed but then when Blair did not reply and just looked back at her, with one lip tightly tucked under her teeth, Janet’s mind clicked two and two together and her eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.

  “Is it? Are you texting Dr. Hottie?” Janet asked suddenly.

  Blair sighed, “Hey – it’s not a big deal okay!” she defended herself.

  “Like hell it isn’t!” Janet scoffed, “Wait, are you having an affair with your doctor?” Janet seemed to both delighted and amused at the idea.

  “Hey, geez, we’re only casual,” Blair admitted but then a blush crept up on her cheeks as she realized just how opposite of casual they really were.

  Janet laughed, “Oh dear, this is too good,” she told Blair, “but – he’s so much older – how does it even work when you’re not- wait – did you sleep with him?” Janet pressed suddenly, leaning forward so fast she nearly knocked herself out of her chair.

  Blair remained quiet for a moment, unsure what to say but then she knew that there was no she could get away with lying to Janet and so she just nodded briefly.

  “Noooo way,” Janet exclaimed in a dramatic tone, “you mean all this time this week that you have been blowing me off saying you were busy – you were actually bumping uglies with Dr. Hottie in the sack?”

  Blair had to chuckle at her best friends words, “Pretty much.”

  “Whoa,” Janet replied, “And here I thought I was having fun this summer.”

  “It’s not that big of a deal – we just like each other’s company that’s all,” Blair said, making another feeble attempt to defend herself.

  “Yeah right, it’s not a big deal you horny little bunny,” Janet was laughing again, “Wait, so are you two a thing now?” she inquired.

  “Not exactly,” Blair said sighing, “I don’t really know what we are. We just—sort of are.” Even Blair had to shudder at how pathetic that sounded but that was the truth. In all their meetings since then, they had not once had the conversation regarding the nature of their relationship – if you could even call it that. And quite frankly, Blair thought it would be too awkward to bring it up.

  “Wait really?” Janet said, leaning forward even more, “Do you like him though?”

  “I mean – that should be obvious at this point shouldn’t it?” Blair replied, raising an eyebrow at her friend.

  “No I meant – you know, feelings. Do you want to be exclusive with him?” Janet asked and then continued, “Oh imagine that! College student with total badass doctor boyfriend – hubbahubba.”

  Blair shook her head at Janet, “No. He’s not really into that sort of a thing,” she said quietly.

  And then Janet was quiet for a second. “Wait – so – he said that to you?”

  “Well, we don’t really talk about this much. But he might have mentioned it once.” Blair said, looking down at her nails.

  “Oh bee,” Janet said sounding suddenly sympathetic, “What if he ends up breaking your heart and just using you?”

  Blair shook her head and dismissed the idea immediately. “He won’t do that. He’s a good guy – not an immature high school kid.”

  “What makes you so sure? You two haven’t even had the conversation yet,” Janet pressed.

  “We don’t need to, alright?” Blair snapped back, sounding more catty than she had intended to. “I never ask you all these questions about you hookups so can you get off my back?”

  “Geez,” Janet said, slumping her shoulders and backing away from her a little, “I’m just looking out for you.”

  “Well I don’t need you to,” Blair said, unable to control the annoyance that had seeped into her system. “I’ll catch you later, Janet. I’m going to go now.”

  And with that, the brunette was out the door in a matter of a few moments, the door slamming firmly shut behind her.

  Blair felt a little guilty over her entire exchange with Janet; this wasn’t the norm for them as they usually got along well and scarcely ever fought. But she quickly shook off that burdening sense of guilt and decided she had no time to sit over and mull over her exchange of words with Janet.

  In fact today, she felt excited as her brain was brewing up a storm of ideas. It was a Wednesday so she knew Daniel was working today and they did not have any plans to meet up for the afternoon but Blair had plans of her own.

  She inspected herself a few times in the mirror, giving a little twirl to examine her dress. Blair planned to surprise Daniel at his clinic today. For the entire afternoon, she had been giving him the impression that she was busy going out with her mother but little did he know, she was scheming up to show up at his clinic unannounced and surprise him.

  The giddiness had still not worn off as she pulled up in the clinic driveway with a box of Donuts firmly clasped in her hands. Upon entering though, she found Kate standing behind the receptionists counter yet again.

  “Is Dr. Williams in?” Blair asked but as she said those words, she realized how strange it felt to refer to him as anything other than Daniel.

  Kate, the nurse, shot
her a long look. And then flashed her a smirk, as though she was in on a secret that Blair wasn’t clued in on. “You want to see the doctor?” she asked him and it that moment Blair realized that the woman had a really distinct New York accent.

  “Yes,” Blair shuffled her feet uncomfortably; showing up unannounced at his workplace was turning out to be more challenging than she expected. “Is he in?”

  “Oh, he’ll be here in a moment,” Kate told her, the smirk still spread out against her lipstick smeared lips. “Why don’t you take a seat there?”

  Blair nodded, feeling relieved that their little exchange was now over. But then to her horror, she realized that Kate had suddenly abandoned her post from behind the reception counter and was now trailing behind Blair.

  “Right here,” Kate said cheerily pointing towards one of the chairs in the waiting lounge – they were yellow, plastic and smelled of various cleaning agents.

  Blair nodded; still a little confused as to why Kate had followed her out but she took a seat none-the-less.

  “Slow day today, huh?” Blair said finally at an attempt to make awkward conversation when she realized Kate had no intention of leaving her side and had in fact taken a seat right next to Blair.

  “You know, you win some, you lose some,” Kate said shrugging nonchalantly and then turned over to face Blair, her shoulders pointing over towards her direction, “How come you’re here today? I didn’t see any appointments scheduled under your name,” Kate probed.

  Blair felt a dash of irritation at all her probing but decided to remain polite, “You know,” she said, weighing the box of doughnuts in her hands, “just wanted to, er, thank him. He’s been a brilliant doctor so far,” Blair said, lying through her teeth.

  “Oh right,” Kate said and then she was silent for a moment. Blair thought this meant the end of her drilling questions but luck was not on her side today. “I think you said you were eighteen, weren’t you? I think you’re a little young for this stuff.”
