Stacy and I watched from her office, giggling as we ate our lunch – well pretended to eat our lunch. Her office was closer to Eddie’s so we could get a better view of his reactions. The laughter could not be helped for the most part.

“Oh damn,” Stacy exclaimed as we watched Brandy exchange a few words with Eddie that we couldn’t hear, but the exasperated look on Eddie’s face when she tapped his hip with hers when she left – priceless.

“He doesn’t have a clue,” I said through a fit of giggles.

“No hahaha and Suzanne is watching like a hawk.”

“Good,” I actually tried to take a bite of my teriyaki chicken.

Eddie continued with his rounds just as Jeff our resident gay fabulous web designer walked up to him. Stacy and I held our breath.

We tried to watch inconspicuously as he said something to Eddie and then actually pinched his ass! If he could have, Eddie would have jumped to hold on to the ceiling. Both Stacy and I turned away from her office window roaring with laughter.

“Oh you are diabolical Stacy,” I barely could get the words out through the giggles.

“He’s got to have figured out something is going on since this has escalated all week,” she says trying to chew, talk and laugh all at once.

“I’m sure he does. I wonder if he’ll report them for sexual harassment though.”

“Oh five employees that just started flirting with him constantly in one week, nah, he’s probably afraid it is some plot,” Stacy said waving my concern off. Of course it was a plot, but one I doubted he would figure out since he does like the attention, but all week he’s gotten gradually curious about the reasons behind it.

“I’m glad Evan asked me to not participate, Eddie would be more suspicious if I had.”

“Evan just doesn’t like the guy and wants him away from you as much as possible,” Stacy looked at me. “See you can’t even stop smiling just hearing his name.”

“Shut up,” I said, but could not clear my face and we burst into another fit of giggles.

The knock on her door made both of us turn to look up.
