Dinner Invitation

"Will you accompany me for dinner this evening?"

Angela glanced up from her files and was met with an anxious looking Dwight.

"Oh," she said flustered. "I really don't think that's appropriate to ask in the office."

"I understand perfectly," Dwight said softly and walked swiftly back to his desk.

Angela gaped at the spot he had been standing in for several minutes and then preceded to go back to her work.

As the workday came to an end and Angela was walking promptly back to her car she was intercepted once again by Dwight.

"So would you agree to accompany me to dinner?"

"Dwight I thought you understood when I said that wouldn't be appropriate."

"You said it would not be appropriate to ask in the office. We are outside now on neutral ground," he explained seriously.

Seeing the unconvinced look on her face Dwight went on. "I would very much like for you to join me this evening."

Angela could not help but feeling flattered at the attention. Plus, she thought to herself Dwight is a lovely man. He is a gentleman and I'm sure that I would enjoy his company immensely.

"All right," she agreed. "I would be honored to have dinner with you Dwight."

A huge grin spread across his face and Dwight took her hand in his own and pressed his lips to it in a soft tender kiss.

"I look very much forward to it my lady," he said gallantly.

He smiled at her again and walked back to his own car all the while unaware of Angela's heart beating rapidly in her chest.

Placing a hand over her pounding heart, Angela thought that perhaps tonight would be a very special night indeed.

The End.
