Page 15 of A Very Grumpy New Year

“Yeah. You?”

“Yeah, Ginger just headed over to Olive’s house to help her set up for tonight. I’m going to go over there around nine. I need to head up to Semper Fly so that I can wrap up a few things before we start fresh on Monday.”

“I’ll join you.”

“Sounds good. I’ll see you soon, then.”

“See you.”

We end the call, and I climb out of bed and head out of Cora’s room and into my own room next door. I hate to wash the scent of Cora off of me, but if I have my way, I’ll smell like her again soon enough.

Images from last night play in my head as I rinse off, and by the time I step out to dry off, my cock is rock hard, and I’m ready to do all of those things with Cora all over again.

Maybe I should skip work and head over to Olive’s house. I can help them set up and hang out with Cora more.

My phone buzzes, and I see a text from Kip.

Kip:Want me to pick you up?

Huxley: Sure. Be ready in five.

He sends back a thumbs up,and I rush to get dressed and grab a protein bar for breakfast. I’m shoving the last bite into my mouth when he pulls up, and I head out to his truck.

“So?” He asks as soon as I shut the door.

“What?”

“How’s Cora? Have you talked to her yet?”

“Kind of.”

“Sounds promising,” he teases me as we pull out of my driveway and head towards Semper Fly.

“We slept together,” I blurt out.

He whips his head to look at me so fast that I slam my hand on the dashboard.

“ROAD!” I shout, and he jerks his eyes back to the snow-covered road.

“That’s huge man! Congrats! So, you two are like officially together?”

“Not quite.”

“What? What exactly happened?”

I give him a look and he laughs.

“Okay, not exactly. I mean, what did you tell her? Does she know that you’re obsessed with her?”

“Don’t think so.”

He sighs, and I take a deep breath and sigh, too.

“I told her that I like her.”

“You mean love.”

“I do, but I didn’t say that. I was afraid that I’d freak her out, and I mean, she lives with me, so I need her to feel comfortable.”
