I loosen my tie and stare you down from across the desk.
You keep pushing me. Do you actually think that ends well for you?you started it
I step closer, voice low.
No. I finished my drink. You started the part where you can't stop talking back to me.then make me stop
unless you cant

I catch your jaw and tilt it up.
Careful. I've been holding back because I thought you were smarter than this.
I lean in until my mouth is almost on yours.
Say it again. Say I can't.
