I’m glad you liked it.
I did a lot of thinking out there.
I want to ask her what she was thinking about, but it’s really none of my business, and knowing Nora, she’ll feel obligated to tell me.
The lake is good for that.
I have a proposition for you.
My dick instantly goes hard. Let’s hear it.
Let me help you with the kids while I’m in town.
Is she crazy? No.
Has anyone ever told you you’re stubborn?
All the time.
I can’t live here for free, and you need help with them. It’s a win-win for both of us.
No.
There’s a long pause, and then three dots dance across my screen.
What if I exchange watching your kids for something other than rent?
At least wine and dine me before you proposition me for sex, I type with a smile on my face.
I don’t know why I’m flirting with her. Okay, yes, I do, because she’s beautiful. Because her smile is permanently imbedded in my head, and I can’t stop thinking about her to save my life.
I’m pathetic.
I’m a pathetic single dad who’s lusting after his friend’s sister.
YOU. ARE. HORRIBLE. That’s not what I was going to suggest!
I laugh. Oh, okay. My bad.
But good to know it wouldn’t take much to get you there.
Are you flirting with me?
You started it. *Wink*
I grin stupidly and type out a reply. For the record, you can flirt with me anytime.
“Dad?”
“Yeah, bud?”
“What are you smiling at?”
I blink, and sure enough, a giant smile is stretched across my face.
“Oh, uh, I was just talking to a friend.”
“Nick?”
