“I can only assume it has something to do with that,” Mel said. “That’s the only thing that gets her like this.”

Leah remembered back to the day that Carly came into their shared room crying. She had gone to see her boyfriend, Rob at his place and instead of finding him alone studying like he said he was, he was with another girl. But not just any girl. Her own mom. Her mom begged her to not tell her dad but Carly was not interested in keeping the lie. Until it came out that her mom was pregnant with Rob’s child.

Carly swore that it would kill her dad to find out and in the end made a deal with her mom. Leave town and never contact anyone in the family again and Carly would keep the secret.

Tina was reluctant at first, but then Carly started bringing up things she had remembered as a child about her mom sneaking in the house in the middle of the night and having strange men over when her dad wasn’t around. It seemed she had hidden it away deep inside herself that her mom had always been this way.

Tina finally agreed to Carly’s demands and left, and as far as Leah knew, she had never been heard from again.

“It seems weird that she would get in touch after all this time, don’t you think?”

“Let’s hope we are wrong and it is something else entirely,” Mel said. “Like maybe she has decided that instead of hating Tony she wants to get it on with him.” She indicated to the dance floor. “Because that is not what you do when you hate someone.”

Carly had herself wrapped around Tony, his hands inching closer to her ass.

“If you wanna dance like that, I may change my stance on dancing and let you drag me out there,” Brandon said, handing her another beer.

“I can guarantee that I don’t have her moves but if you don’t mind me being pressed up against you, I’m willing to try.”

“Having you pressed up against me is one of my favorite things,” he said and took her hand leading her to the floor.

They danced for what felt like forever, his body holding hers tightly. Along with the dancing she drank several more beers and by the time they were back at Brandon’s house, she considered herself officially drunk.

And if the sex was any indication, she was willing to get drunk again very soon.

Chapter 20

Brandon awoke sore in places he couldn’t remember being sore in years. The sexual acrobatics that he and Leah had indulged in the previous night were things that at his age, his body didn’t handle easily anymore. It seemed that drunk Leah was adventurous and was willing to try almost anything, including using almost every flat surface in his house and some that weren’t so flat. Not to mention, she just had to have sex on his dock where anybody that was out at two in the morning would have seen them.

He didn't think there was a man in the world who would have said no to that, no matter how sore their body would be the next day.

Just remembering the way she looked in the moonlight was enough to get him through the next several weeks.

Moving slowly and quietly so as not to wake Leah, he made his way to the bathroom to relieve himself. He was halfway through what was a long piss when the door opened and a sleepy Leah popped her head in.

He wasn’t shy and after all the many things they had done, not just last night but the last few weeks, it shouldn’t bother him that she was watching him pee.
