Our moment is interrupted by the ringing of his cell phone.
“Sorry, I have to take it. Could be my work.”
“Sure.” I nod enjoying the view of his backside as he goes through his apartment and retrieves his phone.
The conversation is muffled, and I can’t make out what he is saying, not that I am trying all that hard. I am still attempting to catch my breath and steady my heart rate.
He comes back while I am getting my clothes on.
“Trying to sneak off on me? I promise you next time I will last longer. It’s just you’re so beautiful, and I have been dreaming about this for months, and I couldn’t help myself.”
I blush not knowing what to say in return so I nod my head like an idiot.
“Well, I guess we’ll talk soon?” I ask, daring to hope that he really means there will be a next time.
“I actually have to go out of town for a few weeks on an assignment. I wouldn’t go but it pays the bills.”
“Oh no, totally. I understand.”
“I’m gonna call you.” He hands me my shoes and kisses my forehead. “God, I wish I could force you to spend the night but I’m on the redeye to New York. Then I am off to Ireland.”
“Oh, poor you,” I tease him.
“Ireland doesn’t have you,” he says and I melt.

It’s been a week since I met Enzo but he hasn’t disappointed me. He texts me regularly and we do video dates when it’s convenient for both of us, which isn’t often considering the time difference and our conflicting schedules.
Eddie is back in the office but Darin is in Colorado negotiating another job. Which means I still have Beans in my custody but I have been keeping him at my place. I need to be in my own space. Besides, I kept running into that skinny bitch, and I was tired of deflecting her insults.
Beans shit in my brother’s office so he got pissed and insisted I leave him home from now on. I don’t know how well that will go over with Darin but I left him in my kitchen with potty pads and plenty of food and water.
I should be working on following up with a customer who hasn’t paid his final bill but I keep getting texts from Enzo.
Pineappleman: Do you pee in the shower?
Curves: I’m only human. Do you?
Pineappleman: Thank God. I keep thinking something will send you running from me.
Curves: You’re crazy.
Pineappleman: Crazy for you.
Could he be any sweeter
?
Curves: I bet you say that to all the girls…
Pineappleman: Only you.
Curves: Okay…I gotta get back to work
Pineappleman: Can we videochat later? I need to see you touch that pussy. Wanna watch you finger it and suck those fingers into your mouth and pretend they are my cock.
Heat pools between my thighs.
