I Got You
Vin
âThat was fun.â Lynn twirled in a circle on the less crowded trail leading to the hotel. âPreston has good friends.â
âPrestonâs a good kid,â I smiled. âYou did a good job with him.â
âEh, heâs more of a parent than me most of the time.â
I chuckled, knowing what she meant. I saw endless examples of his maturity and how he looked out for his mother in so many ways tonight. As a man that also grew up with a single mother, I was impressed.
âSheâs a natural drunk. No alcohol needed,â Preston had said to me after getting off the phone with his dad. I had barely grabbed his mom in time before she fell face first into the hoard of hungry ducks. âIf sheâs near water, sheâs going to fall in if you donât watch her.â He then warned me about her distracted driving, and not to let her listen to her books while she drives.
I took mental notes throughout dinner about how he treated his mom. He seemed like the parent most of the time.
âHe likes you, you know,â Lynn bumped her shoulder against mine, looking all cute and smug.
I wrapped an arm around her shoulders, feeling pretty smug myself. âWhatâs not to like?â
âI donât know. I have no complaints yet,â she giggled.
âThatâs good to hear. Please let me know if you ever do.â I kissed the top of her head.
Dinner was fun, even with that bump-on-a-log assistant coach glaring at me the entire time. Lynn was the life of the party, getting most of the kids to play some type of charades game on her phone while we waited for the food. Even the staff couldnât be jerks to her. It was in their job description, but not one of them was a dick to my girl after the drinks came.
âItâs so pretty out here at night,â she said, looking up at all the hanging lights. âThereâs not as many people as earlier, either.â
âThey gather at the bars and clubs the later it gets. Weâre getting far from the mall, too.â
âYou know,â she twisted back to stare up at me, grabbing my hand on her shoulder with both of hers. âI havenât been to a bar or a club in a long time.â
âMe neither. Well, maybe bars, but only the restaurant ones. Iâm too old for that shit.â I used to have to pull my soldiers piss drunk out of bars in the middle of the night when they would start causing trouble. It turned me off to the whole idea of partying.
âYouâre not old,â she droned.
âI felt old around all those kids tonight.â
âReally? They all seemed to think you were the coolest thing ever. They couldnât get enough of your stories about their coach and the army.â
I chuckled softly. âOnly old men tell stories like that to the younger generations.â
âNuh uh. Youâre too sexy to be old,â she said, then quickly covered her mouth with her hands.
âYou think Iâm sexy?â I teased her.
She sighed, dropping one hand and grabbing my hand with her other.
