Work was always a bit fickle.  Sometimes it was easy going and other times some well-meaning idiot stirred up trouble.  As it was a normal project with a normal time line got spun up with a mention that wasn’t supposed to be mentioned.   Now Phill was caught up explaining that it wasn’t going to go like that, the part drawing would be submitted on time.  Phill was positive he was going to be late, but he couldn’t really explain to people at work that he had to leave because he wanted a friends help to convince his lovely wife that she should let him tie her up so he could … do all manner of things to her lovely body.  It was a losing battle to concentrate on work, so much so his boss noticed it.<br/>“Phillup, come on, you are my best engineer.  I know this isn’t that hard, and is a tad dull, but what has your consintration?”<br/>Phill shook his head, “You know, I am sorry Mr. Edwards, normally I would be right there, but… Kate is at home, waiting for me…”  Phill trailed off.  Did he really want to explain that she was waiting for him to get there to talk with him and a friend about maybe tying her up?<br/>His boss completely misread the situation in Phills head, well, not completely.  Nodding he looks around, and pats Phill’s shoulder.  “Okay, Phill, You got me on that one I wouldn’t concentrate either.  Look, this one last meeting and then get out of here.  I wouldn’t want to wait either, not for Kate.”<br/>The meeting was at last over and Phill was driving home in his beige Volvo station wagon.   It was a nice car, Phill insisted on it, but it didn’t really have the getup and go that some of his co-workers liked.  For Phill this is a perfect car, not a truck, but it was perfectly capable of hauling his tools and supplies for the various projects.  He was thinking more of his projects as of late because of what he could do with her Kate.  The things he could build to deliciously torment her.<br/>Phill forced his mind to sober and focus.  That was only, of course, assuming he got her to agree.  He had no idea if Kate was even up for this.  He had brought Simon in because he figured it might assuage Kate’ fears a bit to know at least Simon was experienced.   Granted, that would do nothing to get over her initial trepidations.  That few miles to his house were covered as he dealt with those thoughts.<br/>Opening the door he noted the house had been cleaned, but paid it little mind and hung up his jacket and hat and then paused.  Looking over he saw Simon and Kate, and smile spread over his lips. “Simon!  It is good to see you again.  I see you have met my lovely wife, Kate.”  Moving over he gives the man a firm but friendly shake of the hand.  Moving over to his wife he kisses and smiles. “Hi.”  Looking between the two he smiles, “Sorry I am late, work got… well, very work like.  Give me just a second.”  Heading over to the sidebar he makes himself a drink and settles next to Kate.  Resting a hand lightly on her knee he looks between the two.  “Well, I hope I haven’t missed much of the discussion.”
