Hi folks. As a request from Brit Brat, I wrote a sexfighting story. It took a lot longer than I thought and came out a lot longer than I'd expected. Below is the intro. It's not necessary to read this for the rest, but it does help fill in the backstory of the characters. There is no action, that'll come in with the other part. I hope you enjoy. As always I welcome all feedback.
Tech Support
Bill had been struggling with the ethics of the issue for quite some time now. As one of his company's IT techs he was obligated to report any misuse of company technology. That much was concretely obvious. So why was he hesitating? Simple, of all the employees in the 4 departments that Bill is responsible for, Nicole was the only one who treated him like a person. Usually the only time people would see the IT guy was when something was horribly wrong with their computer and they desperately needed it working. Not the best time to interact with people at all. Bill was often prodded by these folks to do his job faster so they could finish X by Z time and not lose their job. Whenever Bill would save the day, he'd get shoved out of the seat as quickly as possible without so much as a thank you or a smile. That is, except for Nicole. She was the exception. She would be flustered by all kinds of errors and spyware and bluescreens, but she always made a point of thanking Bill profusely when he'd rescue her computer. One day recently, she went so far as to give Bill a quick peck on the cheek as a thank you. Bill blushed a very deep red which when considering his very pale, Irish skin was even more noticeable. Nicole was a hard worker and definitely not one of those women who took shortcuts to get to her position. Compared to the other women in the departments Bill looked after, she was actually rather average looking but way more intelligent. She was also a bit older than most at her level or higher being in her early to mid 30s. She started in the company at an entry level position and worked her way up dilligently to her current position. Her bright red hair did make her exotic looking to a point, but she was around average height for a woman and average weight always wearing very professional looking jacket, blouse and knee length skirt outfits with stockings and conservative heels as well, unlike some others who tried to sex things up. She also wore her hair in a very tight bun most days and wore a rather plain pair of round-framed glasses. Where most of the other women tried to look work sexy, Nicole gave off more of a librarian vibe. This made what Bill found on her computer all the more shocking to believe.
He had been called earlier in the day to fix yet another malware issue on Nicole's computer. He went through the standard procedure of deleting temporary files, running Malwarebytes scan and still it seemed infected badly. Then he ran ComboFix, but it still seemed corrupted. Nicole was waiting patiently the whole time, but looked like she was going to chew through her nicely painted red nails as she waited for these scans to finish. Bill turned around and looked at Nicole who raised her eyebrows expectantly. "I'm sorry Nicole, I'm going to have to take your computer back to my office and do some more work on it. I may need to back up your data and do a complete OS restore if I can't fix it. You have been saving items in the standard places correct?" At the time, Bill didn't think anything of her hesitation to answer, after all she was going to be unable to work for at least the rest of the day, if not longer. "Uhhh..n.no..I don't think...no.." Bill smiled up at her and reached out and gave her forearm a gentle squeeze. "It'll all be just fine, you'll be back at work in no time." She returned his smile, with just a tad bit of anxiousness that Bill ignored. Later on, he'd remember seeing it and realize the implications.
Back in his office he started looking at the logs for the malware scans and found a pattern. The malware all originated from the same folder on the computer. So even tho the bad files were deleted the source may still exist in that folder. The first odd thing Bill noticed was the folder was hidden and not in the usual save places for documents and files. As an administrator, Bill set hidden files to visible and decided to look inside. What he found were picture files and videos. It was the content of each that got his attention. The first batch featured a curvy woman in different skimpy bikinis and monokins in a variety of poses. It took Bill a moment to realize, but the comely redhead in those pics were actually Nicole. They were labeled "NikkiLove" and featured her in all sorts of locations and outfits with her hair down, long and flowing or up in pigtails and no hint of her glasses. Bill was very amazed, shocked and surprised by everything. What got him next was another set of photos featuring Nicole in side by sides with other women in similar attire with "freecatfights.com pollfights" as the name of the folder. She also had folders labeled "rl catfights" and "rl sexfights" that Bill was worried about checking. Curiously, it seemed the bad file came from something shared by someone on the freecatfights.com website. Bill did a trace on Nicole's internet history and discovered that she was going to that website during office hours which was a clear violation of company policy. Standard operating procedure for this situation was for Bill to report the misconduct to her superiors along with the items in that private folder which would most assuredly get her fired. If it were anyone else in the company, Bill wouldn't be hesitating. He struggled with the situation for another 30 minutes. Then he made sure Nicole's computer was clean, deleted the backup of her data he created and other backups of her data he had created previously, created a new backup excluding the hidden files and prepared to return her computer to her.
As Bill was approaching Nicole's cubicle, there was recognizable fear and anxiety on her face. Her bun was a bit disheveled and her round glass sat awkwardly on the end of her nose while she was visibly chewing her fingernails. Bill had to smile at this sight, because she look so helpless and so cute. If she were a manga character, she'd be Moe. He sat the computer on her desk as she looked up at him. "Well, Nicole. It seems like you went to a website that was hacked and got malware on your computer. It could happen to anyone. You just really need to be careful which websites you browse at work," he said hoping she would get the hint. She set her computer up and turned it on and looked up at him, rewarding him with one of her really big smiles. "Bill, you've saved my life again. I don't know what I'd do without you." "It's my job. It's what I do, so don't worry about it. Besides with you around, I have job security," he said with a wink and walked away. He couldn't tho get out of his mind the very provocative pictures he'd seen of Nicole and he was really glad he didn't look at some of the other folders. To think that such hotness was being hidden at work....Bill quickly cut off that train of thought before it led anywhere near an HR report.
As Bill was walking away, Nicole hurriedly went to check her folders to see just how much of a bullet she dodged. This was the first time Bill had to actually take her computer back to his office to look at it and she had been very concerned that he'd find out about her secret life and how she played at work. She knew that losing her job had been a very real possibility. As her desktop loaded up, she quickly surfed through My Computer and found her files all there and intact except for one video file someone at the website had shared with her. That one must have been the culprit. Nicole leaned back in her chair and breathed a very heavy sigh of relief. Then she sat bolt upright. She hadn't gone into control panel and made hidden files and folders visible. Yet there were her files. There was only one explanation. Bill must have done it and he must have seen the files. So why wasn't she in front of HR and her supervisor being shown the door now? Bill. He saved her job. Nicole sat there in stunned silence. She couldn't imagine that a guy like Bill would react so calmly to what he had to have seen on her computer and would put his own job on the line just to save hers. Nicole wasn't sure what to do. She knew he had to have seen at least the sexy shots of herself. She also knew that Bill was pretty much a stickler for the rules. So why had he bent them for her? They had several interactions in the past few years with updates to software and computer issues and replacement computers and Nicole felt he was a pretty intelligent guy. They didn't see each other outside of work because Nicole had other...hobbies. She really didn't know much about him at all except their brief interactions and here he is risking his job for her. Nicole just had to find out why and figure out some way of rewarding him. She picked up her phone and dialed his extension not fully believing what she was about to do. "Hi Bill. No, no nothing's wrong. I just....well I just wanted to thank you so much for really coming through for me today. I was thinking...maybe after work...ummm...maybe after work I could fix you dinner as a thank you. " *pause* "Yes. I mean if that's ok with you. I make a mean chicken cordon bleu. Ok. Ok. Well after work I can send you directions. Ok. around 7 is fine. See you then." Nicole hung up and was in shock. She'd actually just invited a guy to dinner at her place. The devilish part of her was cheering. It's not like she hadn't been with men before. Far from it. But this was somethign she hadn't had since college. A date.
