Chapter 2
Leo
I dropped off the items to Cameron and I had to admit I still had a bit of a crush on her. Motherhood suited her well and before I could say anything, she was smiling at me and I was unable to stop from returning the gesture. She was absolutely glowing. The two of them both seemed so damn happy.
“How have you been Leo?”
“Good, just working. Your husband keeps me busy.”
“Well I hope you are not as busy as when we first met.”
She was talking about all of the women that I had driven around for him back in the day and I assured her that it wasn’t the case. There was part of me that wished it was that way, but it wasn’t because of her. It was because I was being selfish. If Grey ever messed up, I would try my best to step in. Cameron’s tits were bigger, her hips were wider now and she was even more stunning then before. It was hard to take my eyes off of her.
“Nothing like that. You have tamed Grey in a way that I didn’t think was possible. I am now looking for a lovely lady like you to do the same thing to me. Do you have any hot friends you want to set me up with?”
She waved me off. “The friends I have here are into the female persuasion, besides Leo, I don’t think you are ready to be tamed. You still have that wild look in your eyes and every woman can see it. We have a knack for that sort of thing.”
I smiled at her and hoped that it was true. I felt like I wasn’t ready to settle down, not yet, but like Grey, it was possibly because I hadn’t found someone like her to change my ways.
“I just need to find the right girl. I could maybe change the ways of that tall friend of yours that used to be your roommate. She was hot.”
Cameron giggled and assured me that it wasn’t possible.
“She is not changing her ways anytime soon. Trust me, but if she would Leo, I would try to set you up. Now most of the women I hang out with are at Mommy classes. If one gets a divorce or has a cheating husband, I will slide your name in.”
I thanked her and I knew that Cameron meant it. She was the rare type that didn’t lie and I always liked that about her. It was unhealthy the way I felt about her, but I couldn’t help it. She invited me in for some coffee, but I refused. I knew better than to do that, even though I knew it wouldn’t go anywhere. She was head over heels in love with Grey, that much was obvious and I wouldn’t do that to him. In the end I would just make it worse because I would want her more than I did now.
“No, I am going to get a jog in before I pick up Grey for his lunch. If you need anything else, don’t hesitate to call.”
She told me that she wouldn’t and I left with a lighter feeling in my step. Cameron just had a way about her that drove me crazy and I had to contain myself when I got into the car. I was hard from our few moments together and I told myself again that it was impossible to think like that. Grey was my boss and even though Cameron smiled in a way that made my heart flop in my chest, she was just being nice.
Making my way to the park, I watched the soccer moms run around in their sports bras and yoga pants. It was uplifting in the same way that Scott liked to watch the women strip and dance on polls, but this way I didn’t have to pay. There were a couple of pretty ones that smiled at me in such a way to entice me, but I wasn’t feeling like seducing one of them right now. Grey had his games, me, I liked to be the dangerous man that gave these women something to look forward to before they went home to their husbands and their mediocre lives that they were getting bored with. I was still surprised how horny they were and how easy it was to get into their panties. I didn’t get it, but that didn’t matter, I didn’t need to. All I needed to know was that if I smiled in just the right way, spit a little game, I could easily talk them into a quick romp. But my heart wasn’t in it and I had Sandra to look forward to tonight.
Sandra’s hair had been in a tight bun, but I had a feeling that when I saw her tonight she would be a completely different person. I liked to take the good ones and make them bad for me. I was sure that I would be able to do that to her. I had faith in the system and my radar, even if it was a little more work. I was sure that was what I truly wanted.
After I lifted my spirits with tight spandex and pretty, desperate housewives, I made my way to the courthouse to pick up Grey. He was just getting out as I pulled up.
“I don’t know how you do it Leo, but you have the best timing.”
“So how was court?” I would never tell him that it was easy to be on time because he worked liked clockwork. All I had to know was what judge was on the stand and I knew what time he went out for lunch. They all had their preference and it wasn’t hard to see through it.
“It is a bitch. My main witness lost it and his temper on the stand. The jury is looking at him like a time bomb and there isn’t much I can do now. I didn’t want this case in the first place, but it is going to be worse than I thought. I think we should call it now, but I don’t have a choice. Sometimes I wish I could just drop them if I wanted to. But I took the job, so I am going to have to try to get Griffin off, no matter how guilty he is.”
I kind of nodded, but never really got what it was like to be him. I heard the stories of course, but at the end of the day I was a driver with far too much time on my hands.
“Are you bringing Cameron with you tonight or are you going solo?”
“Solo I think. She still doesn’t want to leave the baby with a sitter. I want to take her out, but she is stubborn and is convinced that no one else can watch the baby but her. She won’t even get a nanny.”
It was something I liked about her. I had always liked a little fire in my women and Cameron may be sweet, but she was stubborn as well. I was sure that she was a great mom just by the way she acted.
“Are you bringing a date with you to the club Leo?”
“I met this hot little chick at the stroller place earlier and she is going to meet me there. We will see what happens.”
“Sometimes I envy you Leo.”
“Why?”
“Because you are free.”
I scoffed and told him that I would switch places with him in a heartbeat. He didn’t like to hear that, not at all, but I was still very serious. I would have given my right arm to go home to his wife every night. I didn’t need freedom if I had a reason and woman to settle down for. He didn’t know how lucky he really was.
“Leo, you know how I feel about that.”
“Yeah, yeah. Don’t get your panties in a bunch. So we are we having lunch at?”
He told me that he wanted to go to the bistro down on fifth and I started making the trip. My mind was in the gutter today and he told me that I wasn’t paying much attention to the road. I wasn’t of course, but I never did.
“What is on your mind Leo?”
‘Not much boss, just thinking.”
“About your date?”
I shrugged. I hadn’t thought much about Sandra. She was just another woman in the long string of them. I wanted something more concrete, but today was turning out to be as useless as the one before it.
“No, she will be a dalliance for the night, but nothing more. You know the type. She is uptight and she will tell me as she gets naked that she never does this sort of thing, but we will both know that she is lying. I haven’t really thought about her much and after I fuck her brains out, I doubt I will think about her again. The city is full of women, but most of them bore me to tears.”
Grey smiled at me and told me that I would find the one soon enough.
“Maybe I am not looking for the one, but someone that I will remember the next morning would be nice.”
We stopped in front of the diner and I parked, getting out to follow him inside. I would never say it out loud, but I sure hoped that he was right. I was getting sick of the monotony of it all. There were plenty of beautiful women here, but one that stood out from all of the rest was hard to come by. Maybe I needed to get out of here for a while to find one. I had a vacation coming up and I was starting to think that I needed to hit up small town, USA and come back with a sassy one like Cameron that I could come home to every night.
Damn, I had to stop thinking about her. Why did I always want the little hotties that I couldn’t have? It was a problem that I needed to solve and I was hoping Sandra would be enough of a temporary distraction to help keep my mind on track.
