Pretty sure it’s where I get it from.

“What’s with the first part of the order?” Moose inquires after wiping sweat off of his beached tanned forehead. “You lose a bet or somethin’?”

“Nope. Jus’ tryin’ to show this beauty beside me a good time.”

At that, she lightly snickers.

Scoots closer.

Brushes her foot against mine.

In spite of the fact that I logically know the shit is innocent, my cock doesn’t.
