The Little Nell
âDonât make her work more difficult,â Blane had said.
She softly closes the door to her suite behind us, and I donât have to see it to know the bedroom is around the corner. But, when she turns to me, her smile isnât relaxed.
âI can leave if I need to,â I offer, hoping she wonât take me up on it.
Her gaze jumps to mine. âNo,â she says, louder than she needs to. âI want you to stay.â Then she winks at me, and she flashes a grin. âBut I think Iâm going to need something to drink.â
âThey have 24-hour room service.â
âOh?â She glances toward her purse, and Iâm beginning to understand how tight her finances must be and how much trust she put in Blane to come here.
My heart twists. Or itâs more how desperate she is. âYou can charge it to the room.â
âDo you think Blane will have a problem with that?â
âHe wonât even look at the receipt,â I say, knowing he wonât bat an eye at one drink or ten, not after heâs given her the weekend to herself. âWhat would you like?â
âA mimosa.â
I chuckle. âTraditional?â
âYeah, I prefer the orange juice one.â
âIâll order it.â
âGreat. Iâll be right back.â She disappears around the corner, and the door to the bathroom closes. So, I march to the phone, order four mimosas, two for each of us, and sit on the couch. I scrub my hand over my face and then over the back of my neck. I came running the nanosecond she quirked her finger, and I was ready to take a flying leap into her bed. But Iâm not about to follow Ann-Marie into her bedroom without a direct invitation.
So much for my fucking plans or what I assured Blane my intentions were. Iâm making everything harder in her room by anticipating sex with Ann-Marie. But even as I mentally call it âhaving sex,â I know itâs not going to be as simple as all that. When had she changed her mind about me? I couldnât be sure, but she was the one who seduced me. It was all her idea.
Though, I could have said no.
But I didnât. Oh, no. I came running as fast as I could with my dick at the ready. Blaneâs going to kill me when he finds out, and Sylvia might, too, if Ann-Marie decides to take me up on the marriage certificate. Yet I donât care much at all. Theyâve been my friends for decades, and weâve survived several falling-outs. This time wonât be any different.
Ann-Marie comes back around the corner and into the living area. Sheâs in yoga pants with a white tank top, and the view practically knocks the wind from me. She doesnât have a bra on anymore, and her nipples are tight buds beneath the thin white fabric of her shirt, and I know as long as she lets me stay, Iâm not going anywhere.
She stops near the coffee table in front of the couch. âDid you order the drinks?â
âYes, they should be here any minute.
