The dessert is gone quickly, but the waiter hasn’t come back with the check. My fingers curl around the hem of my dress, impatience striking me.

“What’s the plan for when we get out of here?” I ask, slightly overwhelmed by the twirl of lust that has settled in my system. I’m suffocating in the weeks of tension. “Your place or mine?”

Stanley’s lips curve in a smile.

“Neither.”

His answer leaves me perplexed. A thousand possibilities fly through my mind, making it impossible for me to focus on one. What does he mean by that?

“What?”

“I have other plans,” he announces calmly.

How can he remain unaffected?

“Plans,” I repeat.

My mind is spiraling, trying to figure out what he means by that.

“Yep.”

“Stanley, what kind of plans?”

If he dares to mention another fancy place, I’ll probably stand up and walk home.

“Nothing expensive, I promise,” Stan reassures me, grabbing my hand to kiss it. “It’s just a safe place for me, and I want to share it with you.”

My confused heart melts with his words. I honestly can’t mess up his plans when they carry this much meaning, but at the same time, I’m not capable of waiting that long. I’m aching, almost begging for his touch. If he doesn’t finish this for me, I will finish it myself, and that would be a pity.

“Can I know where it is?” I question as curiosity mixes with my frustration.

“At a bar.”

“We’re not twenty-one,” I remind him.

I have a fake ID, but that doesn’t mean that I will use it regularly. Tonight I feel sloppy, and I might get caught.

“I never said we were going inside.” Stanley shrugs.

It’s true, but do we have to do it today?

Knowing that Stan made an effort to plan this night, I need to consider my options. I wish that I can say that I’m going to enjoy the next part of the night, but frustration still has a firm grip on me.

Finally, I lean towards an option that benefits us both.

“Okay.”

Stanley seems surprised that I let the topic go so fast. His eyebrows go up as a wave of relief brushes his face. Little does he know that I’m far from letting this go, but I’m not going to talk about it while we still are in the restaurant.

We split up the check—mostly because I insist—and we leave the place smiling. Once we’re at the parking lot, my seduction plan begins. Instead of walking to the passenger’s door, I stop by the backseat. Stealing a look at the place, I notice that it’s partially dark and empty, perfect for my risky, yet hot, plan.

Stanley stops walking, observing me with intrigue as he waits for my next step.

“Bree...” He goes quiet when my hands sneak under the dress, anchoring my fingers on my panties, sliding them down my legs.

The fabric gets stuck on my boots, so I bow to get rid of it, keeping it safe in my fist. Staring directly into his green eyes, I offer them to him.

“Fuck.” Stepping closer to me to close the distance between us, Stanley accepts my panties, biting his lip as he hides them in the pocket of his pants. “This was not the place that I had in mind for this.”
