Chapter Five

PATRICK

I must admit, she looked damn good in that dress. I’d be lying to myself if I said she didn’t and I would have gotten out of there before I said anything I regretted, but I couldn’t just leave her there when she apparently had too much to drink. After noticing her friends safely getting in a cab, I suggested that I take her home to make sure she got home safely. I couldn’t just leave her there.

If she didn’t have too much to drink, I would have made up some excuse about having work to do. It was the only way I could avoid staring at her or drinking too much and saying something I wouldn’t be able to take back. Sure, I actually had work to do, but it wasn’t as important as I made it seem. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to control myself, yet I here I was driving her back home.

Seeing her in that tight dress stirred feelings in my gut and down below that I hadn’t attributed to Emily in a long time. She didn’t know, but I saw her at the bar long before she approached me. I saw the way that black dress molded to her like a second skin. The way the tight fabric outlined her curves that I remembered quite fondly, it made me hard. She always did. She had this innate ability to make me desire her, and it was never enough. I wanted her all the damn time. I wanted her now, and it didn’t help that the more she drank, the touchier she became.

It was innocent at first, her hand slightly grazing my arm or my thigh but then there was a time or two where she would squeeze my leg, or her hand would move a little too close to my groin. There was one point where I think she squeezed my ass too.

When she did those things, I wanted to reach out and caress her shoulders and slowly slide my hands down her hips and pull her to me. I was so close to giving in, and if I did, I would have slipped my hands to her ass, picked her up and taken her right there on the pool tables while she screamed my name.

These were all innocent thoughts of course, and I made sure I played it calm and professional. Having these thoughts was the last thing that I should be doing when it came to Emily. She didn’t need me trying to worm my way into her life, especially her bed when she was too drunk to be thinking clearly. That's not what I wanted at all, but I was stupid to let her go, and I definitely didn’t deserve to have her back in any kind of way.

When we finally arrived at her apartment complex, I figured out which parking spot she was telling me was hers. I practically carried her up to the flight of stairs outside of her building and helped her unlock the front door.
