Me: Not tonight. I’ll save you some, if Bruce doesn’t finish it.

Bruce: Can’t promise

Me: Can you please leave some for Anu

Bruce: Fine!!!

Declan: Talk later, heading home. I think I can brave it now

Me: Be safe.

Luke: Heading out too

Bruce: Not heading out yet, I’m busy enjoying sweet pastries

Adam: Fuck you, Bruce!!

Declan: Totally with Adam

Luke: Yeah, fuck you Bruce

Bruce: dancing emoji

We all close the chat. With Anu sleeping, I go back out to join Bruce. He has poured himself a drink as well, totally relaxed. Nothing fazes him. I grab a plate and warm two patties for myself and join him on the chair.

We sit in quiet companionship, feeling the relief of the last hour.

Chapter 62

Daniel

I dislike being at gatherings, and even more so when I’m tasked with babysitting the annoying client, Spencer standing next to me. I drum out all the nonsense he has been spewing, and I’m just trying to get through the evening. The deal on the table with his company is huge for my client, and I’m compelled to play nice, despite how much I can’t stand the guy.

Fucking Aaron suggested I bring him to this event and pal up with him. Why I keep letting Aaron rope me into this stuff is what I don’t know.You do, know, you don’t trust him not to ass kiss and sell the company while sucking up to clients. Fuck yes, but at times like this, I wish I let him ass kiss.

I want so much to have Anu next to me, but she seems to be having a good time chatting with Dele Blythe and Lande DeMoore. I smile inwardly, thinking about how I’m going to enjoy taking that dress off her body. I feel the shift in my pants.

Down, boy! I chastise my mind. My eyes trace every move she makes as she talks and laughs with her friends. Knowing she’s not wearing any panties, I find myself intensely aware of her shemust have felt my eyes on her. She looks my way and winks at me.

“Can you imagine fucking a woman like that?” Fucking Spencer’s voice interrupts my eye fucking of my girl.

“Excuse me?” I turn to him, confused.

“I asked can you imagine fucking a woman like that? The one in blue,” he repeats himself and nods towards Anu.

Of course, I don’t have to imagine, but… what the fuck?

“That black woman in blue just winked at me. She must have heard about me and probably wants to flirt with me.”

Oh, no, he didn’t!

“I don’t think she winked at you.” I sip my drink to soothe my irritation.

“Trust me, she did.”No, she didn’t.

“Looks like I might get lucky tonight. I would love to give her the best time of her life.”

Fuck no. Please, stop talking. It’s getting hard not to give you a black eye.
