“Cass?”

Cass closed her eyes and stopped. Please don’t say you saw that. Please, please, please. “Hmm?”

“Is she here?”

“Oh, um, yeah. I mean her car is here, so she must be in the bedroom.” Almost naked and with her mask on. Holy shit. Is it too late to ask mom and dad for a rain check? “Be out in a jiffy!”

“That was weird,” Bev said to her husband who was smirking.

“Eh, if her young lady is indeed in the bedroom, it makes sense that Cass would want to have a little alone time.”

“Russ! Our daughter wouldn’t do that while we’re here! Would she?!”

Russ chuckled. “I meant, she would probably want to warn the girl that she was about to meet the parents. But, I like the way you think, dear.”

“OH, MY GOD!” Rebecca paced around the bedroom repeating the phrase over and over again. Could her luck be any worse? She came very close to exposing herself to Cassidy’s parents. You only get one first impression, and that would have been disastrous. She was fairly sure they didn’t see her, yet she was still embarrassed.

“Jesus, baby!” Cass locked the door, hurried to her girlfriend, and began kissing her.

“Cassidy.” Rebecca placed two fingers over Cassidy’s lips. “Your parents are out there.”

Cass groaned. “But you’re in here. In this!” Her eyes naturally gravitated to Rebecca’s tits that were spilling over the top of the bustier.

Rebecca used those same fingers to lift Cassidy’s chin. “Eyes up. Focus.”

“I am!” Cass’s eyes dipped again until Rebecca cleared her throat. “Come on, baby! It’s been forever since I’ve touched you!”

“Three days.”

“That’s what I said! Forever!”

Rebecca couldn’t help but chuckle at Cassidy. “Well, it’s going to be a little longer because you have guests.”

“We have guests,” Cass corrected. “Apparently, they know about you.” Rebecca’s eyebrows rose. “Technically, they only know that I have a girlfriend. I guess Rand told her mom who’s friends with my mom.”

“So, hiding in here isn’t an option?”

Cass frowned. “You don’t want to meet my parents?”

“It’s not that, baby. I guess I’m just a little embarrassed about almost getting caught like this.” Rebecca gestured to her scantily clad body.

“You definitely have nothing to be embarrassed about. Your body is rockin’.”

“I’m glad you think so, but I’m sure your parents would see things differently.”

Not my dad, Cass thought but decided not to voice. “They didn’t see you. But, I can’t get the gorgeous image out of my head. I could tell them…”

“No,” Rebecca laughed softly. “You need to get in the shower and wash this stuff off your cute face, and I need to get dressed.”

“Wait!” Cass grabbed Rebecca around the waist. “At least wear this under whatever you change into. Please? Then, maybe we can revisit what you had planned when we’re alone again?”

Rebecca nodded with a smile. “How should I dress?”

Cass grinned and shrugged. “Casual? Dad’s a meat and potatoes kinda guy, so I thought we could go to a steakhouse not far from here. Is that okay?”

“Of course. Now, go get in the shower.”

“Sure you don’t want to join me?”
