Page 28 of Falling in Love with Two

“Yeah, I know. But not doing it while we are working just feels wrong.”

He laughs. “Whatever you say, man. So, how’s everything going?”

“Not bad. I finished up the transmission job on Mrs. Flanigan’s truck.”

“Great. Thanks. I’ll call and let her know.” He makes a note on a pad on his desk. “What else is going on? Did you have fun the other night?”

“Yeah, it was a good time.”

I’ve been doing my best not to think about Leah. I was hoping to get to know her better after our night of fun, but all she left was a note.

No phone number.

No future plans.

I don’t even have her last name.

That hasn’t kept me from thinking about her almost constantly, though. Some women fuck you so good that you’ll never forget them. Leah tops that list for me. I don’t know that I’ll ever be able to get her out of my head.

I’ve been with my fair share of women, and not many of them have gotten under my skin like that.

Wanting to change the subject, I ask, “So, how’s my pregnant sister?”

“Well, she can no longer see her ankles, so that’s been a fun new development.”

My nose scrunches up. “How’s she taking that?”

“She’s always been thin and athletic, and now, in her words, she feels like a big gross blob.”

“Jack, she’s not that big. She just looks like she has a volleyball under her shirt.”

“Dylan, you know that. And I know that. But Liz?” He throws his pen in the air in defeat. “Talking to her, you’d think she’s as big as a barn.”

“Is there anything I can do to help?”

“Nah, I don’t think so. We are in the homestretch now. Thank the lord.” He seems to get lost in his thoughts for a moment. “Anyway, everything else is good?”

“Not bad, I guess.”

Jamie comes walking in with a huge shit-eating grin on his face.

Jack looks at the clock. “You’re late.”

“Sorry. I got stuck in traffic.”

I roll my eyes. “You live five minutes away.”

“I was driving from Kensington.”

Jack asks. “Are you still seeing that Amy girl?”

Jamie grins while pushing his blonde hair out of his face. “Oh, I’m still seeing all of her.”

Jack says, “I don’t care how much you’re seeing. Just get to work on time.”

“Aye-aye, captain,” he responds with a small salute. “Dylan, have you seen your wild one any more?”

“No. And how do you know how wild she is?”
