“Something’s going on,” Andy says, too perceptive for his own good. “I’m going to get to the bottom of it.”
Not a fucking chance.
“You ready to take the reins on this game?”
The redirect works, and his eyes widen. “Are you sure?”
“If you’re feeling up to it.”
He nods. “I’m fine.Well rested.”
I grin. “The guys may as well get used to their new coach.”
“I learned from the best.” He reaches out and we shake hands. “You sure I can’t convince you to celebrate my promotion?”
“Nice try. Actually, can I ask a favour?”
“Shoot. I owe you.”
“Do you still have the keys to your parents’ cabin in Wallangarra?” It’s risky asking to use his place for a weekend away with a student, but the cabin’s in remote bushland, and it’s only twenty-minutes away from Coleridge. It’s too good an opportunity to pass up.
“Yeah, why’s that?”
“Think they’d mind if I crashed there for a night? It’s been a crazy month, and I just need to… unwind. Go off-grid, get a change of scenery, relax.”
I mentally berate myself to shut up and not lay it on too thick. The last thing I want is him getting suspicious. Thankfully, he nods and pulls out his keys, unwinding the one for the cabin off his keyring.
“Of course. They’re still over in WA. It’s the least I can do after you covered for me while I was sick.” He places the key on my desk. “Just don’t ask me to keep you company. You know I go stir crazy stuck out there without internet, and as horny as my dick is right now, I’m not really into the Brokeback Mountain scene if you catch my drift.”
“Loud and clear, my friend.” I pick up the key and pocket it. “Thanks for this.”
“No worries.” Smirking, he winks. “There are better ways to unwind, you know.”
I roll my eyes, ignoring him.If only he knew.
After Andy leaves, I pull out my phone and text Leni.
Ethan: Tell me you don’t have plans this weekend.
I tap my fingers on my desk, my knee bouncing as I wait for her to respond. Thankfully, she doesn’t make me wait long.
Little Devil: I don’t have plans this weekend
Ethan: Are you being smart, little devil?
Little Devil: Depends. What will you do to me if I am?
Groaning, I shift in my chair as my dick twitches with anticipation of all the things I want to do to her this weekend. She’s so good at getting under my skin in all the right ways.
Ethan: Behave. Can you get away for the weekend?
Little Devil: Are you inviting me on a dirty weekend, sir?
Ethan: Leni…
Little Devil: Ethan…
Little Devil: I can get away. What did you have in mind?
