He was mesmerized.
I returned my attention to Kyle until Ava interrupted.
“Come with me to the bathroom?”
“I’m good,” I answered, turning back to Kyle.
Ava’s hand rested firmly on my shoulder for a second. “Come with me to the bathroom.”
I peered up at her in confusion. “Why? Are you okay?”
Kyle laughed. “It’s time for a huddle. Ava needs to tell you what she knows about me and what she thinks about glowboy,” he informed me, referring to his buddy. He sat back in his seat with a happy grin, utterly confident. “We’ll wait here for the verdict.”
In the bathroom, Ava got straight to the point.
“Okay, I need to tell you one thing. There’s a movement, a huge movement with younger men seeking out women in their thirties because you’re in your sexual prime.”
My eyebrows hit my hairline. This was the second time I’d heard this.
Ava waved her hand impatiently. “It’s not as bad as it sounds. Women complain a lot about rude dates, and these younger men are taking it upon themselves to show older women how they should be treated,” she explained. “And not just younger men, either. Plenty of men are jumping on the bandwagon. It’s fun and positive and I’m just saying, if you like him, don’t hesitate.”
“So…it’s like a public service? I’m an older woman now?”
This was also the second time I’d been called an older woman. Frig.
“He seems really sweet,” Ava encouraged. “It’s obvious he’s into you.”
“Definitely wants to get into me…” I muttered.
“Well, of course,” Ava agreed. “They all do.”
I snorted. It’s like a charity.
But. It had been a long time since I’d enjoyed a man’s company, and this particular man piqued my interest more than a little.
I needed my clock cleaned, my mouth twisted at the reminder of The Hitman, and Kyle looked like he had the tools to do it.
But am I really that woman, now? An older woman getting a charity fuck?
Beggars can’t be choosers, I supposed. It’s not like it would hurt anyone. I didn’t have to jump into bed with him right away. I was entitled to a bit of fun.
Wasn’t I?
“Okay.” I nodded. “I’ll see where it goes.”
Ava whooped, and I quickly shushed her. “What about you?”
“What about me?” she exclaimed. “Did you get a good look at my unicorn? He’s a Greek god. A fitness coach. His channel is super popular. I didn’t recognize him at first, but I’ve seen him. He does not lack for female companionship.”
“Okay, fair enough,” I negotiated. “But if he asks to see you again, as friends or otherwise, promise me you won’t turn him down.”
Ava dramatically crossed her heart with her pointer finger. “I promise.”
Two days later, I leapt into bed with Kyle with zero regrets.
Sweet, sexy, funny, and romantic outside of the bedroom, in the bedroom his attention bordered on worship.
We dated for a few weeks, meeting up several times a week. On the days Lucky had Brayleigh, Kyle stayed with me at my place though he made a point to take me around to show me his home. Which turned out to be better put together than mine.
