Fighting Temptation (Men Of Honor) by LYNN, K.C. (8)

 

 

 

The drive home is filled with silence. We left shortly after eating, I wanted to get out of there from Gram’s knowing smirk. I shift in my seat feeling restless and cross my legs to try and stop the throbbing that’s happening between them. I need to change my panties they are so wet. I’m pathetic! Why does he have to have this strong of an effect on me? It doesn’t help that it’s been a long time since I had an orgasm. Justin is the only person I have slept with other than Jaxson. That was almost 2 years ago, and for the man being a med student he had absolutely no idea where a woman’s clitoris was located, or maybe he just didn’t care. I dated him for 9 months in hopes of getting over Jaxson. It didn’t work of course, but at least I wasn’t alone, the company was nice.

I get pulled from my thoughts when we pull up to my house and see Cooper’s truck out front.

“He’s here already?”

“I texted him and told him we were on our way back.”

I’m a little annoyed by this since I told him I would call Cooper when I got home. Cooper gets out when we do and I’m happy to see Kayla follow behind him.

“Hey, how are you feeling?” she asks coming up and hugging me.

“Not too bad, my ribs are sore today but my head feels better, surprisingly.”

“Good,” she gives me a smile that doesn’t quite reach her eyes. Before I can ask her about it Cooper breaks in.

“Can we talk about last night Julia?”

“Sure come in,” I take them in the house and get everyone a drink then we sit down together at the table.

Coop lets out breath, “Ok tell me what went down last night. Jennings is saying it was an accident and he’s demanding for me to arrest Jaxson for assault.”

Panic seizes my chest.

“It was kind of an accident… or not,” I shake my head in confusion, “I don’t know Cooper, I have never seen him like that before. I’m still trying to wrap my head around it. He was so angry when we left.” I relay the rest of the events from that evening, up to when I told Wyatt I no longer wanted to see him. I feel Jaxson tense when I tell them about Wyatt grabbing me and calling me a cock-tease. I pause and take a breath, “He said he was going to show me how good we could be together. I knew he was going to kiss me. I started screaming and tried to pull away. When you guys showed up he finally let me go and I fell.”

I look over nervously at Jaxson. He’s looking straight ahead, his expression hard as stone. His hands are clenched in fists and you can feel the anger rolling off him in waves.

I look away wearily, “The thing is Cooper, I have no idea what he’s talking about when he said that I’ve been playing head games with him. I’ve barely had any contact with him. That was only the third date we ever had. I ran into him once in a while when I was going to school and it was by chance when I would come back to town. He would always ask me out and I always politely declined. It wasn’t till a few months after I got back from Germany that I ran into him again, and when he asked that time I said ok,” I shrug feeling guilty now, knowing I should have kept declining.

Kayla leans over and grabs my hand, “You didn’t do anything wrong, so don’t you dare blame yourself for any of this.”

Cooper breaks in, “Julia, you have grounds to press charges. You wouldn’t have fallen and gotten hurt if he hadn’t forced you there to begin with.”

I glance at Jaxson nervously again. He narrows his eyes as if he knows what I’m going to say next.

“I’m not pressing charges,” I say quietly.

“Fuck that!” Jaxson slams his fist on the table making me jump, “yes you are!”

“Don’t yell at her like that!”

“Kayla stay out of it!” Cooper says sternly.

“Then you tell him too, this is Julia’s decision and hers alone! I will not let her be bullied into anything.” Kayla and Cooper are glaring at each other, you could cut the tension with a knife it’s so thick.

I drop my head in my hands. Lord this is all my fault.

“Julia, I think you should reconsider,” Cooper says more calmly.

“She doesn’t want to fucking press charges because of me. She thinks if she doesn’t then he won’t, but you’re wrong baby.” Jaxson’s tone softens and he turns my face towards him. “If he wants to press charges he will, no matter what you do. Don’t let him get away with this Julia.”

I swallow thickly and hold my tears at bay, “I don’t want anything to happen to you because of this.” I turn and look at Cooper now, “Couldn’t you talk to him Cooper? Tell Wyatt that I’ll drop the charges against him if he drops his against Jaxson?”

“No!”

I ignore Jaxson and continue talking to Cooper, “Trust me, Wyatt won’t want me pressing charges, especially right now. He told me his dad is running for Mayor. With the campaign starting up soon he won’t want bad publicity.”

Surprise flashes in Cooper’s gaze, “He said his old man was running for Mayor?” I nod. “Fuck that’s the last thing we need… You’re right though, it’s leverage.”

“Goddamn it I said no! I don’t give a fuck what happens to me. She’s pressing charges!”

“Well I do care and it’s my decision!”

Jaxson stands up, shoving his chair into the wall, and starts pacing.

“Look just calm down. Julia’s right, it’s something that we can try.” Cooper puts up his hand to silence Jaxson’s protest then turns to me, “I think you need to consider putting a restraining order on him at the very least.”

I look at him in shock, “A restraining order?”

“The guy thinks he’s in love with you, Julia. If you have had as much contact as you say you have then that shit’s not normal.”

“I don’t think that’s necessary Cooper, I think putting a restraining order on him will just make the situation worse in the end.”

“Listen Julia, when I questioned him, the shit he said made me nervous. He’s not right in the head, I’m telling you, you need this. I have no doubt he will not leave you alone unless you do.”

“I’ll fucking kill him if he goes anywhere near her,” Jaxson says with terrifying calmness.

“Jesus! I did not just hear you say that!” Cooper says, distressed.

I drop my head in my arms, “I just want this over with.” Kayla gets up, moving beside me and rubs my back. “Ok,” I mumble under my arms. I lift my head so they can hear me better. “I’ll put a restraining order on him. But first I want you to try to get the charges dropped against Jaxson.”

“For fuck sakes!” Jaxson shoves his hand roughly through his hair.

Cooper nods at me, “I will.” He looks over to Jaxson, “You need to come to the station with me and do an official statement. Kayla has given one and I will too. We have a strong case to get the charges dropped either way but we can use Julia’s for leverage.” I feel much better after hearing that but I can tell Jaxson is not happy about it.

“Julia shouldn’t be alone right now. She’s still healing.”

“I’ll be fine on my own Jaxson.”

“I’ll stay with her for a while,” Kayla says cutting in.

“You don’t have to.”

“I know, but I want to. We can catch up, maybe watch a movie while you rest.”

I smile, “Sure that sounds good.”

Cooper stands up now, “Alright let’s go.”

Jaxson walks over to me and hands me my pain pills. “Take these, I know you’re hurting.”

I roll my eyes at his bossiness, “I’ll be fine. I can take care of myself. Now go with Cooper and cooperate or I’ll be forced to call Gladys for your punishment,” I say, biting back my smile.

Jaxson glares at me, “You’re such a smart-ass,” he catches me off guard when grabs me and plants a hard kiss right on my lips.

“I told you to stop doing that,” I try to sound angry but it comes out breathless.

The arrogant ass just smirks knowing his effect on me and walks away.

“Who the fuck is Gladys?” Cooper asks as they walk out the door.

“Ya goodbye to you too,” Kayla mutters under her breath.

I look over at her and see an expression full of hurt. I grab her hand, “Is everything alright?”

She lets out a breath, “Ya it’s fine, Cooper and I have just been butting heads lately.” She smiles trying to reassure me but it doesn’t reach her eyes again.

“I hope it isn’t because of Jaxson and I?” I ask, feeling guilty.

“No! Really it’s fine. Let’s go pick a movie. Wanna watch it in your room?”

“Sure.”

I can tell she doesn’t want to talk about it. She turns to go into the living room but I grab her arm quickly. “You know I’m always here for you right? You can call me day or night.”

“Ya I know that, thanks Jules,” she hugs me tight and I wince a bit.

“Shit sorry! Are you going to take the medication?”

“No! I don’t feel I need them that bad.”

We pick Dirty Dancing which is a favorite of ours, then make popcorn and walk upstairs to my room. We snuggle down in bed and half-way through the movie Kayla turns to me.

“We should go out dancing one night, it’s been a while. We can make it a girls night and invite Grace too.”

“Ya that would be fun. Let’s do it soon. Grace could use a night off, she’s been working herself into the ground. I saw her the other day and she looked ready to fall over.”

“I know, I’m pretty sure it’s because she needs the money though.”

I agree with Kayla. Grace just moved to Sunset Bay a year ago. Kayla and I hit it off with her right away and we all quickly became friends. There’s still a lot we don’t know about her, but we can tell something has happened to her. When she found out about my mom passing away she opened up, telling us that she lost her mom too. But she never shared how she lost her and I didn’t want to be rude and ask. As far as we know she’s alone with no other family. I’m hoping she will open up once she gets more comfortable with us.

“Depending how you’re feeling, how about next weekend?”

“That works for me. I’m sure I will be fine. I’m surprised how well I’m doing today considering…”

“I still can’t believe we never knew about Wyatt. Why wouldn’t Coop and Jaxson just tell us the reason from the start?”

I shrug not having any idea.

“So fill me in on what’s been happening with Jaxson. Your conversation looked pretty intense when I walked in yesterday.”

“Ya and you didn’t help by the way, talking about my hot date.”

Kayla chuckles, “Sorry, I couldn’t resist. I wanted to make sure he knew you weren’t just kickin’ around waiting for his sorry ass. Believe me I regretted it when he came storming over later like the Incredible Hulk.” We both burst out laughing.

My smile fades and I take a deep breath, “I don’t know Kayla. We haven’t had a chance to talk about it too much. He says he’s going to make things right but he also said he doesn’t regret sending me away. A part of me wants to forgive him, it feels so good to be around him again but that’s what’s scaring me the most. He still affects me so strongly. I’ve worked really hard trying to get over him and all of it just crumbled the moment I laid eyes on him again. What if I forgive him and he leaves again?”

“Well I guess that’s what you need to find out. I don’t know what the right thing is to tell you Jules. I do believe that in his fucked-up head he thinks he did the right thing and believes he was protecting you. See what he says about what his plans are for the future. If it’s something that includes you then maybe make him work at your friendship, don’t let him off the hook too easily.”

We get interrupted when Kayla’s cell starts ringing. I hold my breath praying it’s news about Jaxson.

“Hello. What? I’m supposed to have today off, can’t someone else take them?” Kayla asks with frustration.

Darn! What’s taking Cooper and Jaxson so long?

“Fine, I’m on my way,” Kayla hangs up then looks at me, “I’m sorry Jules I gotta go, someone called in sick and I need to take her appointments. It’s only for a few hours.”

“It’s ok, thanks for staying as long as you did. Come on, I’ll drive you over.”

“Are you sure? I can ask Coop to come get me?”

“No it’s fine. I want the fresh air.”

 

 

After I drop Kayla off I decide to go visit my mom for a while. I sit and talk to her about Jaxson being back and ask her for guidance.

Afterwards I find myself pulling up to the beach. Getting out, I walk to the one place I haven’t stepped foot in since Germany: our spot. I came here often over the years, especially when I was missing Jaxson. After Germany I tried to rid myself of any reminders of him, it was too painful.

I sit down and lean back against the log and take a deep breath of the ocean filled air. The crash of the waves soothe me and I close my eyes while I try to clear my head. The next thing I know I’m being startled awake.

“Where the fuck have you been!?”

My eyes shoot open and I sit up in a panic. Jaxson is standing over me with an expression that looks like he’s ready to commit murder. I put my hand over my pounding heart, “Jesus, you scared me to death.”

The sun has started to set and I realize it’s visibly cooler out. How long have I been here?

“I scared you!?” he asks in outrage, “Do you have any idea how long I have been looking for you?”

I shake my head, a little scared to ask.

“Almost 2 fucking hours Julia! I checked here before and never saw you.”

“I visited my mom for a bit then I came here. Geez! Calm down Jaxson.”

“Are you fucking kidding me? I find you sleeping on the beach and you tell me to calm down. What the hell is the matter with you?”

That’s it! I stand up and grab my shoes. “Screw you Jaxson! I don’t need to listen to this shit!” I start stomping away.

He lets out a frustrated breath, “Shit! Julia wait!” I ignore him and keep walking. He shoots his hand out and grabs my arm, stopping me. “I’m sorry alright. You scared the hell out of me when I couldn’t find you. All this shit with Wyatt has me going crazy. I thought something happened to you.”

I soften a bit when I realize how scared he is, “Why didn’t you just call me? My number is still the same, although, I imagine you forgot after all this time,” I couldn’t resist adding in that last part.

He looks at me like I’ve lost my mind, “Julia! I called it about 100 fucking times.”

“What?” I look into my purse and grab my phone to see 27 missed calls and 18 voice mails, all from Jaxson. There’s also a text from Kayla that says: Hulk Alert! Jaxson’s going crazy looking for you. I turn my phone to the side and see it’s on silent. Oops… I clear my throat nervously, “Sorry, I guess my phone is on silent.”

He lets out a frustrated breath, “Jesus!”

I try breaking the tension by changing the subject, “So, how did it go at the station with Cooper?”

Jaxson is staring at me with a mixture of outrage and disbelief. He shakes his head, “Damn it woman!” he lets out an exasperated breath and pulls me against him, wrapping me in his arms. His heart pounds against my cheek, showing me just how scared he was. “You shouldn’t have fallen asleep on the beach Julia, it’s dangerous. Promise me you won’t do that again.”

“I know, I didn’t mean too. I’m sorry I scared you,” I step back and look at him, “So… how did it go?”

He nods his head over to our spot and we go sit by each other. It feels almost like it used to and it makes me panic a bit so I move a little away from him. He notices but doesn’t say anything.

“Well, you were right. Wyatt dropped the charges when Cooper told him you were going to press them if he didn’t.”

I let out a relieved breath, “Good!”

Jaxson gets annoyed, “I still don’t agree with it Julia, that fucker should have some consequence for what he did to you.”

“I think you smashing his face in was repercussion enough.”

“No it’s not. You need to go in and get that restraining order.”

I clear my throat nervously, “You know Jaxson, I was thinking about that and I really don’t think that’s necessary.” His face turns savage and he lets out a growl before I can finish. “Jesus! Alright, calm down, I’ll go tomorrow.”

“I’ll pick you up in the morning and take you to get it done.”

“I can manage on my own.”

“I’m sure you can but I told you I will take you.”

We glare at each other in silence for a moment, of course I’m the first one

to break eye contact. Things are quiet and awkward now, “Well I should go,” I say quietly. I get up to leave but Jaxson grabs my arm stopping me.

“Not so fast Julia! No more stalling, it’s time you hear me out.”

Damn! I knew it!

“What’s the point? You sending me away in Germany is not something that we are ever going to agree on, no matter what you say to me.”

“Why can’t you just try to understand that I didn’t want anyone to see me like that?”

“Cooper did!” I point out angrily.

“That’s because he was my emergency contact; I didn’t really have a choice. Believe me if I could have prevented him from seeing me like that too I would have. But I also knew he could handle it. You don’t get just how fucked up I was Julia.”

“Of course I don’t get how bad it was, you never gave me the chance to.”

“I’m sorry, but it was for the best, trust me.”

“Well that’s a really shitty explanation. Did you come back thinking it was going to be that easy Jaxson?”

He shakes his head, “No! I know it’s going to take time for you to forgive me but I’m asking you to at least give me the chance to make it right.”

I soften a bit, “It’s not just about Germany. Why did you stay away from me for so long?”

He looks away guiltily. I’m waiting for him to say something, to explain himself, but he doesn’t. I shake my head frustrated, “Was Melissa telling the truth last night?”

That gets a reaction out him! He whips his head in my direction and glares at me, “What the fuck are you asking me?”

“Did you leave in the first place because of me?”

His expression is furious when he answers, “You know better than that Julia. Nothing that bitch said last night was the truth. Do you think I would be back here trying to fix this shit if that were true?

“Then answer my question! Why the hell did you stay away from me for 6 years!”

“Because I didn’t think I could keep my dick in my fucking pants alright!”

I snap my head back in surprise, not expecting that admission.

“Christ!” Jaxson stands up and starts pacing angrily, “Let’s face it Julia, that night changed everything between us.”

“So what are you saying Jaxson, that you regret it?”

Just the thought makes me want to throw up.

“No goddamn it! I probably should but I don’t. That was the best fucking night of my life Julia,” I can tell he immediately regrets his admission.

“Me too,” I admit softly. His expression softens as we stare at each other. “You promised me that night that you would stay my friend and you broke that promise,” I look away as tears sting my eyes.

He kneels down and grabs my face in both his hands forcing my gaze to his, “I know Julia, I’m sorry I fucked up. I thought I was doing the right thing. Believe me if I could go back and change the way I handled things I would.”

I swallow thickly and try to keep my tears at bay, “Why do you feel differently now, what’s changed?”

His expression darkens, “Because there was a point when I thought I’d never get to see you again and the thought fucking ripped me apart.” A sharp painful ache seizes my chest and steals my breath. “I swore to myself that if I got out of there alive I’d fix this mess I made with you because I can’t live without you Julia. I will fix this even if it kills me trying.”

His tortured admission breaks me and I can’t hold in my tears anymore. I slide off the log on to my knees in front of him and wrap my arms around his neck, while sobs hysterically wrack my body.

“Fuck!” He lifts me up by my hips so I’m straddling him and he holds me tight while all the years of hurt pour out of me. I cry over our loss of years together, I cry for him- that someone hurt him, I cry until the energy to cry anymore has been completely drained out of me. Eventually my tears subside, leaving only the sound of my labored breathing.

“I’ll get us back to what we had Julia, I promise,” Jaxson whispers in my ear making me believe him.

“Ok.”

He leans back and holds my face again, “Ok?” he asks, unsure if he heard me right.

I nod my head, my throat too tight to speak.

He lets a relieved sigh, “Ok.”

He presses a soft kiss to my temple then rests his forehead on mine. I close my eyes savoring the intimate contact with him.

“Are you going to be ok?” he asks concerned, but there’s also something in his voice that makes me open my eyes.

I stare into his ice blue gaze that’s anything but cold and become intimately aware of our position. My dress is hiked up to my hips with Jaxson’s warm hands resting high on my bare thighs. I shift a little and realize he is hard beneath me. His jaw clenches and his grip tightens. My labored breathing is for a whole different reason now. He’s staring at me, waiting for an answer to his question. I lick my lips to wet my dry mouth, Jaxson’s gaze follows and he groans dropping his head on my shoulder.

“Jules this is one of those times where my control is being tested, so I need you to get up before I rip your panties off.”

I suck in a sharp breath from his erotic words.

“What if I want you to rip my panties off?” I whisper shakily.

“Oh fuck. Baby don’t say that to me right now. I’m trying to do the right thing and fix my mistakes, help me out Jules.”

He’s right, as much as I want him now is not the time. If we ever are intimate again it will be his move and his alone. I will not make the first move again.

I let out a breath, “Ok.”

When I start getting up his hold tightens, “Wait, answer my question first… Are you ok?”

I feel so emotionally drained it takes me a while to respond, “I will be. I’m just tired, it’s been an eventful couple of days.”

“I know. Come on I’ll drive you home,” he kisses my forehead one more time then releases me.

“But I drove here, remember?”

“Don’t worry about it. Coop and I will drive your car back later.”

I’m so grateful he offers, because the truth of the matter is I’m much too tired to drive. “Thank you.”

I grab on to his arm as we start walking back to his truck.

“Whatever happened to your bike?” I ask curiously.

“I still have it, it’s in storage,” he looks down at me and grins, “Why? Wanna go for a ride?”

“Yes! I miss it. I haven’t been on a bike since you left.”

“Good,” he grunts out, “I’ll take you out once you’re better.”

I give him a small smile, “Thanks.”

I look over his truck as we walk up to it. I have to admit it’s a pretty nice truck- black with chrome trim and tinted windows, but it’s way too high. I stare at the door wondering how the hell I’m supposed to get in. “Geez Jaxson, your truck doesn’t quite reach the street light, I think you need to jack it up some more. How the heck am I supposed to get in?”

He grunts at my sarcasm, “Get over here smart-ass and I’ll help you,” he says opening the door.

I giggle as I walk over to him. His hands span my hips but before he lifts me up he leans in close behind me, his mouth almost touching my ear, “When you’re lippy like that Julia, it makes me wanna do things to that smart-ass mouth of yours.”

The combination of his words and his touch so low on my hips send a shiver through my body. Jaxson snickers knowingly as he lifts me into the truck. He walks over to his side and hops up gracefully, the height not being an issue for him. Sexy jerk.

I lean my head against the window, feeling lighter and happier than I have in a long time. I rest my eyes and the next thing I know I feel myself being lifted. I shoot awake and gasp, my arms fling around in panic till I grab on to something.

“Shh it’s ok, it’s just me, I’ve got you.”

I let out a breath and my heart rate slows as I realize it’s Jaxson. I wrap my arms around his neck and rest my head on his shoulder, falling in and out of consciousness.

“Where are your keys?” he asks quietly.

“The doors unlocked,” I mumble tiredly in his neck.

He tenses under me and lets out a growl, “Goddamn it woman!”

I ignore him, too tired to argue. He carries me upstairs and lays me down on my bed gently pulling a blanket over me. I snuggle in and moan, loving my comfortable bed.

“Jesus.”

What the hell is his problem now?

He rustles in my purse and pulls out my car keys, he leans over, “Is your house key on here so I can lock the door behind me?”

“Mmhhhmmm,” I mumble sleepily.

He chuckles, “Alright I’ll be back in the morning to take you to the station.”

He turns around to leave but I grab his hand stopping him. He looks down at me curiously, “Don’t ever leave me again, because if you do… I might not survive it.” I feel vulnerable admitting that to him, but I need him to understand, because it’s the truth.

“I’m not going anywhere baby, I promise,” he whispers thickly. Then he leans down and kisses my head, “Good night Julia.”

This time I let him go and fall into a blissful sleep.

 

 

I lock up Julia’s house on my way out and do a quick walk around to make sure the windows and other doors are locked, the back door isn’t. I shake my head pissed off, the damn woman is going to start keeping them locked at all times. I hop into my truck and adjust my painfully hard cock. I need to find some control and stay focused on fixing the mess I’ve made, not getting in Julia’s panties. But god do I ever want to get in her panties again.

I pull back up to the police station and see Cooper’s truck still here.

As I walk through the doors the receptionist from this afternoon stands up quickly and eye fucks me as I get up to the front desk. “Hi Jaxson, back so soon?” she purrs, leaning over to give me a view of her cleavage that comes from a great pair of fake tits.

“Uh ya, is Coop still around?”

“He’s in his office, go right in.”

“Thanks,” I go to walk away but she grabs my arm before I can make my escape.

“I’m off in an hour, wanna hook up?”

I actually think about it for a split second. I haven’t been with anyone since Iraq, it’s been a really long fucking year without sex. But I know from experience that fucking any other girl won’t do anything to get my intense need for Julia out of my system.

“Maybe another time,” I say noncommittally.

“Just let me know.”

I nod and walk into Coop’s office. He’s bent over a file looking pissed. There’s coffee and a half eaten donut next to him. Typical.

“Hard at work with your coffee and donuts?”

Coop’s head shoots up, “Jesus, I didn’t even hear you come in.”

That’s one way of knowing he’s upset about something. “What has you looking like you’re ready to shoot someone?”

Cooper lets out a frustrated breath and pinches the bridge of his nose, something he always does when he’s stressed. “Nothing, just some shit I found on someone’s past I wish I didn’t know.”

“Anyone I know?”

“No, but you will probably meet her. She’s a friend of the girls. Now shut up and don’t ask me anymore questions because I can’t answer them.”

“Is it something Julia can get hurt from.”

“No lover boy, so calm down.”

I glare at his ‘lover boy’ comment.

“So what brings you back here? Don’t tell me you’re turning yourself in for murdering Jennings.”

I grunt, “I wouldn’t turn myself in, I would know exactly what to do with that prick’s body so he was never found.”

“Fuck Jaxson, don’t say shit like that to me.”

I chuckle, love getting a rise out of him. “I’m wondering if you can help me drive Julia’s car home for her. It’s still at the beach, I gave her a ride home earlier.”

He grins, “So you finally found her… I was right, wasn’t I? She was hiding from you.”

“No asshole she wasn’t. I found her sleeping on the fucking beach.”

Coop loses his smirk, “Seriously? What the hell is wrong with her?”

“Believe me I said the same thing… a little more pissed off. It didn’t go over well at the beginning.”

“Ya I bet not.”

“Speaking of which, what have you been teaching your girlfriend?”

“What the hell are you talking about?”

“She’s been constantly threatening to kick my ass and she seems to think she can do some serious damage to me. She says you have been showing her stuff. Whatever the hell you’re doing tone it down.”

“Jesus!” Cooper shakes his head, “I showed her how to get out of a few holds if someone ever tried to attack her. She seems to think she’s Rocky now or some shit.”

“Ya well I swear she’s more pissed at me than Julia is.”

“Ignore her. I think she’s PMS-ing or something. She seems pissed at me lately for something too and I don’t have a fucking clue why. I don’t know what’s going on in that head of hers.”

I can tell Coop seems bothered. “Everything ok with you guys?”

He shrugs, “It will be. Let’s go, I’ll help you take Julia’s car home.”

“Thanks.”

As we walk out of Coop’s office the receptionist stands up quickly again shoving her tits out for us to notice.

“I’m gone for the night Jenny, you can transfer calls to my cell.”

“You betcha darling. See ya around Jaxson,” she winks at me as I walk out.

“Jesus, that’s quite the receptionist you have there. Has Kayla met her yet? Maybe that’s why she isn’t talking to you,” I chuckle.

Cooper grunts, “Ya she’s met her. Trust me Kayla put the gears to her when she started, the girl barely made eye contact with me for the first month and honestly I liked that better. Be careful with her, she’s a persistent one. And she’s been banged more times than a snooze button on a Monday morning,” Coop looks over at me with a smirk before we both burst out laughing.

Damn! It’s kind of good to be back!
