His First day on the Job

She sat in the limo with Ben. It was his first day on the job.
Ben: I am happy to be serving you Mrs. Rye.
Heather: Heather.
He put his hand on her leg. She looked surprised.
Heather: What are you doing?
Ben: I’m keeping you close and safe.
He ran his hand up to her hip.
Heather: What are you doing!? That is not keeping me safe!
Ben: Don’t yell at me!
He slapped her. She became confused.
Ben: I am here to keep you safe! you have no right to yell at me!
Heather called her Dad.
Heather: Dad, Ben is…
Ben grabbed the phone.
Ben: I am good, but heather hit the side of the lime and hurt her cheek.
Mr. Rye: Oh, put some ice on it and thank you for telling me. Keep her safe.
Heather frowned and didn’t know what to do. Ben put his hand on her hip again.
Ben: Oh don’t worry, I will.
She came back and looked at Blake. She held his hand. He smiled at her and she smiled back. No longer will she have bad memories of being in a limo.
Blake: You ok?
She came closer to him.
Heather: I am now.
