Chapter 1

Melissa has been working for Dr. Peterson for a year now. She never thought she would love her job as much as she did. She was never a morning person, but she loved waking up and coming to her job and helping her patients. She loved her coworkers for the most part. This was her first medical job and even though she came with little experience, she has grown a lot in the past year, though there were still a few things she still had to learn.

There was only one downside though...she had a huge crush on her boss, Dr. Peterson. His accent drove her over the moon and he loved to joke around. Sometimes Melissa thought he was hitting on her, but she mostly would brush it off. Melissa didn't make any advances, because she didn't feel it was appropriate. But she would have dreams about him. She did flirt a little bit with him but never thought he noticed. He was a tall man, maybe 6'3" from Brazil with a light tan.

It was just another workday and Melissa was sitting in the lunchroom eating and watching a video on her phone. Dr. Peterson came in and washed his hands and started warming up his lunch. "Melissa, I need you to do me a favor," he starts. She turned around and looked at him. " I need you to run to the post office after work and mail something for me certified and I'll pay you back," he stated. This wasn't the first time he asked her to do run something to the post office for him. It was actually the second. Melissa didn't mind though, it was on her way home. " No problem," she responded. "You going to be ok without me this coming Thursday?" she asked him. Dr. Peterson stopped what he was doing and looked at her and asked, "You're not going to be here Thursday?" "No sir

I'm not. I got doctor appointments for the kids that day." she responded. "Oh, Ok. Well, you deserve the time off. You work very hard. I will cry without you here, but we will try to make it" he winked at her. They both laughed and he left.

Later that evening she was sitting on the couch watching television and heard a knock at the door. She jumped since she wasn't expecting company. She opened the door and there stood her boss. "Dr. Peterson, what are you doing here?" she asked bewildered. He stood there for a moment just staring at her. She was wearing a gray tank top that you could see her boobs sticking out with booty shorts that showed off her ass. After a moment of silence, he finally talked. "I'm sorry for showing up unannounced, but I have something for you, and didn't want the others to see. " He responded. She invited him and she shut the door behind him. "Dr. Peterson, I really appreciate it, but you didn't have to," she stated. "I don't mind.

Melissa walked passed and again he was just staring at her. "Would you like to have a seat?" she offered him pointing towards the couch. He nodded and sat down. He reached inside his scrubs and pulled out an envelope and handed it to her. "What is this" she questioned him. "It's just something small for you," he responded with a smile. She opened up the envelope and there was $200 inside. Her eyes grew big. She looked over at him and before she could ask he chimed in. "This is a bonus for you. You work very hard and you're one of the best I've had in a while. You are always on time, helping others, and making sure everything is ready for me and you are a team player." he responded.

Melissa was so overwhelmed that she didn't even have time to form a thought. She gave him a big hug and thanked him. "Dr. Peterson, thank you so much," she said with tears flowing from her eyes. Dr. Peterson grabbed her face and wiped away the tears. They just stared at each other for a moment before Melissa pulled away out of shyness. Reality kicked back in for Dr. Peterson and he stood up from the couch. " I should get going before it gets too late. See you in the morning, Minha Beleza. He said with a wink. Melissa walked him to the door and he turned around and gave her a kiss on the cheek and left to his car.

She shut the door and stood there for a moment dumbfounded for a moment. 'did he just kiss my cheek or was I imagining it?' she questioned herself in thought. She shook off the thought and headed upstairs for bed
