He hummed. “Mm, we certainly aren’t getting any younger.”
Tony snorted, staring for a moment before slowly saying, “I’m sure I’m about to regret this, but how do you keep up?”
“With?”
“Foxx.”
Harlow's eyes widened before a burst of laughter slipped free. “And I thought you didn’t care about my sex life?!”
“Yep…instant regret.”
“Why? Slowing down? Having…” His gaze flicked down suggestively, even though he couldn’t actually see Tony’s crotch through the desk. “Problems?”
“Yep…so much regret,” Tony groaned.
“Do you want an honest answer?” he asked with a slow grin.
“I’ll probably regret this even more, but sure, why the fuck not.”
“Foxx is the one who needs to work on keeping up.”
The baffled expression from before returned. “Foxx, the vampire, is the one struggling to keep up with you…the middle-aged human?”
Harlow shrugged. “You can ask him if you want.”
“Yeah, no. Moving back to one of your many fucking issues, just go see Wes. He won’t be able to completely fix—” The man waved his hand at him. “—all of whatever you have going on. But he’ll likely be able to figure out whatever the fuck is going on right now.”
Harlow grimaced. “You really think what is going on is mental?”
“Yes,” Tony said without hesitation. “I wouldn’t be suggesting this if I didn’t.”
Could it be mental? It hadn’t felt like it was all in his head.
“Fuck.” He sighed. “Didn’t think it was possible for my head to get even more fucked up.”
His boss snorted. “Yeah, I’d prefer if it didn't too, as you are enough of a pain as it is.”
Ugh… A psychologist… He reached out and picked up the card. “Are you sure?”
“I’m sure, you psycho. Tell you what,” Tony said with a smirk. “I’ll make the choice easier for you. Go see him, or I bench you.”
Motherfucker…
He groaned. “Fucking, fine. I’ll see him. Once.”
“Until you are ‘fixed’.”
“Bastard.”
“You know it.” Tony’s smirk widened.
Well…worse comes to worst, he could just screw with the man for fun, right?
“Now that is all settled… I have some updates for you.” Tony’s grin turned shit-eating.
When the man continued on…it didn’t take long to understand what the fucker found so entertaining…
