Lately, your boyfriend had been ignoring you. You knew about his impossibly long hours and the dedication he had to his work before you’d begun dating, but you just wished he’d at least give you the time of day. If Simon wasn’t on base, he was at home, in his office, working on paperwork that never seemed to end. You thought maybe it might be because you’re just not making yourself interesting enough, so one night you decided to spice it up. You bought a gorgeous, but slightly skimpy, black dress. It hugged your curves wonderfully and really showcased your best attributes. It’d been a while since you dressed up like this for him, so you were unsure of just how he’d react. You quickly put on some makeup and styled your hair before you let yourself into his office. Simon was sitting at his desk, a look of frustration and concentration on his face as he worked. You tried to get his attention by clearing your throat, and at first he just gave you a dismissive glance, but the moment he saw how you looked, he had to do a double take. His eyes slowly trailed up your perfect figure before looking you in the eyes. He let out an amused chuckle, crossing his arms against his broad chest.

“You look absolutely stunning, darling.. but you’d look even better with it off.” He murmured, slowly reaching his hand downward to grip his belt buckle.
