Setting the Pace

Bea nudged Caleb as they left the ticket booth, nodding toward the line at the concessions stand. Caleb followed her gaze. Jesse was there on a date of his own—a lanky, dark-haired girl with her hand in the back pocket of his jeans. She was whispering in his ear, distracting him so successfully that the guy behind them had to tap Jesse’s shoulder to make him move along.

Caleb decided not to acknowledge his brother, just in case they were going to the same movie and Jesse and his date ended up hanging around for the rest of the evening. Jesse might just do that, to be annoying.

“Who’s the girl, then?” Bea said. “I thought he was dating that dark-skinned girl… Neysa, was it?”

“Neysa was ages ago. This one starts with N, too… Nina, Nicky… I forget. Hasn’t brought her home yet.”

Bea wrapped herself around Caleb’s arm and lowered her voice. “Can I come home with you tonight? I have a birthday present for you to unwrap. I’m wearing it. Something… silky and lacy.”

“Sure.”

Bea pouted. “Caleb, that’s not the reaction I wanted.”

Distracted by seeing Jesse and stowing his credit card and compulsively checking his phone to see if Joy had texted, Caleb had completely missed Bea’s suggestive tone. He kissed her by way of an apology. Times like this, when she was able to get away for the night, were very important to her.

“Sorry, hun. I can’t wait for my birthday present.”

She gave him a taste of his present in the darkness of the theater, raising the seat arm so she could drape herself on him to make out, her hands sliding under his shirt then moving down to do as much damage as she could without actually getting him off. They were in the back row and the relative privacy made him respond more than he’d normally allow himself. He was turning twenty-five years old tomorrow. He’d grown up and learned to behave many years ago, and reverting to juvenile behavior wasn’t his style. He let Bea do it because he was about to tell her she had to be out of the house early tomorrow morning. She’d no doubt planned a different way to spend his birthday.

They ate at a favorite Greek place of theirs. It had been easy to become a part of Bea’s life—so much so that after only a few months they had favorite eating places. If his life hadn’t been upturned over the past week, he’d have welcomed the increasing pace of their relationship. Instead, he had a new set of problems to deal with.

She was talking about Saturday. “Mom asked if you wanted a cake. I’ve told her you don’t eat sweets but she insisted. She’s making a banana cake. She thinks it’s healthier, even though it has half a pound of brown sugar in it. We need to be there by noon. Can we get going? I’d like an hour or so alone with you before Jesse gets home.”

Another suggestive look. Caleb snapped out of his thoughts.
