And now that I’m thinking like that, I can’t help but imagine him ordering me around in thebedroom.
I’m sofucked.
No, the problem is I wish I wasfucked.
“Are you good?” he asks, reminding me that he asked aquestion.
“Prettygood.”
“Ty not come back withyou?”
“Oh, no. He’s still at the party we were at. I’m just turning in early tonight. I’mtired.”
“Okay. Makes sense. Just wanted to make sure no one had pulled aTakenand kidnapped mykid.”
“What?”
“That’s a joke,” he says, and the way his lips twist up is so fucking charming that it only makes my dick evenharder.
An eerie silence stretches between us. I can’t stop looking at him, and he doesn’t stop looking at me. I have this feeling he must know how I’m feeling rightnow.
“So are you actually tired?” he asks. “Or did you bail on those kids because you weren’t havingfun?”
“I…uh… If you want to know the truth, I wasn’t having much luck with thisgirl.”
Why did I say that? He’s totally going to think that I fuck around with girls…that I’m not interested inhim.
What am I thinking? He can’t know I’m interested. I can’t have sex with him. He’s Ty’sdad.
He smirks. “Ohreally?”
“Yeah. I mean, we were definitely getting somewhere. Then some guy walked in on us and started having afit.”
“Herboyfriend?”
“Didn’t seem that way. More like a guy who was interested, but she wasn’tinto.”
“Ah. Well, I can see why you were done for the night. Look, I’m probably gonna head out to the bars now. Just grab a quick drink. You’re welcome to come if youwant.”
I can’t help but interpret that as aeuphemism.
I should say no. It’s wrong for me to be having these kinds of feelings for Ty’s dad, but there’s no harm in having a drink with the guy. Ty wouldn’t mindthat.
“What the hell,” I say. “I’m starting to sober upanyway.”
“We’d better take care ofthat.”
Innocent as it all sounds, it’s not, because there’s a part of me I’m so fucking unfamiliar with, that really wishes it would turn into something more. And Eric still has that look in his eyes, like he just wants to shove me into the bedroom and take me up against the fuckingwall.
But what if I’m just being an arrogant fuck by thinking he’s even into me? Just because he fucks around with guys doesn’t mean he’d necessarily want to fuck me, but that look in his eyes leads me to suspectotherwise.
“One drink,” I tellhim.

Eric
Why the helldid I ask him to come out with me tonight? I know the reason, and it wasn’t appropriate, but I can’t deny being excited that he actually saidyes.
