“I love your color choice, Rory. Maybe you can pick out the color I do next time. I always have such a hard time picking it out, but you obviously have excellent taste.” Sawyer smiles at her before turning to me with a devious grin. “Let me see it, Mr. Lockwood. Lemme see those pretty hands of yours.”

“You wanna see my hands, huh?” I wink at her while Rory is distracted, happiness filling me when she smiles, her face and neck turning rosy from her blush.

“Oh, definitely. I want to see what shade of pink you got. Was it daddy’s princess pink or whipped pink?” Sawyer smirks, thinking she’s clever, but honestly, I don’t give a shit that I’m walking around with pink nails. What Rory wants, Rory gets, and today she decided I needed a manicure and pretty pink nails.

“Nope, this is a special blend just for me. It’s a nice combination of spank me pink, with one coat of berry me deep. I think it’s a nice color, it kind of matches the blush on your neck right now.” I smirk, leaning forward and letting my lips trace her jaw before whispering in her ear, “I’ll still finger fuck your pussy so hard you’ll forget your own name. Even with my hot pink nails. In fact, I think this shade of pink would look fucking delicious wrapped around your neck,” I growl with a sharp nip at her jaw.

Her shiver is all I need to know that my comments hit their mark. I wanted to see if I still affect her, and I’m happy to confirm that I do.

“Rex, shh.”

“She’s not paying attention right now,” I say just as Rory turns back to us from the flowers she was looking at.

“Ms. Daniels! I was telling daddy about the ice cream you told me about, and he said we could have some, but I can’t find it. You can show us, right?” she begs.

“I, uh...” Sawyer is looking at me with pleading eyes, unsure how to answer. Hasn’t she figured out that what Rory wants, Rory gets?

“Yeah, Ms. Daniels, would you have time to show us where the best ice cream in Central Park is?” I ask, giving her my best boyish smile to add to Rory’s puppy dog eyes.

Sawyer rolls her eyes, immediately at ease. We didn’t talk about how we would handle a situation like this, but we did say everything would happen naturally. This is natural, right?

“Of course, sweet girl. Let’s go get some ice cream. But Rex?” She glances back at me, Rory’s hand already in hers, her eyes alight with mischief. “It’s the best ice cream in New York City, not just Central Park.”

With that, Sawyer and my daughter walk hand in hand ahead on the path, giggling away, leaving me smiling like an idiot. I’ve always wanted this type of relationship for my girl.

I’m sure I look like a lost puppy as I follow them, but I couldn’t care less. It’s so heartwarming to watch the way my daughter immediately opens up to Sawyer, acting like they’ve known each other for years. It’s honestly a fucking dream come true, no matter how fucking lame that is.

“Here it is, sweet girl. The best ice cream in the city. You should try the chocolate peanut butter one, it’s my favorite,” Sawyer tells Rory with a wink, as Rory runs over to look at all the flavors, completely ignoring us.

“Are you not staying? The least I can do is buy you an ice cream,” I say to Sawyer.

“Rain check, Mr. Lockwood. I’m meeting Cassie and Gwen in fifteen minutes. We’re grabbing lunch before I head to the daycare center,” she explains.

“Well, thank you for taking the time to get us here. It’ll be the highlight of Rory’s day, which I’m sure you’ll get to hear all about tonight.” I smile, loving the thought that Rory will get to spend more time with her today.

“I can’t wait. She’s the best,” she says, smiling fondly at Rory.

Grabbing her pant loop, I pull her towards me, doing my best to not make it too obvious how close I want her.

“Well, baby girl you’re quickly turning into one of my favorite things,” I whisper.

Sawyer looks surprised when I pull back, but she hides her cheesy grin by turning to Rory for a goodbye.

“Bye, Rex. Bye, Ro! I’ll see you later tonight.” With a quick kiss on her forehead, I let her sneak out, watching the way her ass sways as she walks out.

Fuck, I miss her already.

It wasn’t like we spent all day with Sawyer, but she fit right in, immediately making Rory the center of attention. My daughter is crazy about this lady, and what’s even more exciting? It seems like Sawyer just might be crazy about her as well.

I’m starting to think I might be crazy about Sawyer too.

SAWYER

He was right.

As soon as Rory came into daycare tonight, she has been talking nonstop about her ice cream. Apparently, Rex also loved it, and they ended up getting three different scoops to share.
