“Sounds like a boyfriend to me.”
“Shut it. I’m going to put you down for a second so I can put on the sweater.”
She pulled it over her head and then wrapped the scarf around her neck, letting the ends dangle down in front. It was still low cut, but paired with the scarf there was less skin showing and it somehow gave off the appearance of being more casual and less blatantly sexy.
“You’re a genius, Leigh. If I ever become rich and famous, I’m hiring you as my personal dresser.”
“I thought you didn’t want to be famous.”
“I don’t. But if it ever happens on accident.”
Leigh laughed. “Right. Alright baby. Go, have fun. Report back to me later.”
“You know I will.” Angel’s voice softened. “I’m glad you’re happy with Michael, but call me immediately if you need me. I don’t care where I am. And if you know I’m at the club, call the desk and they’ll come find me.”
They both knew she was indicating a lack of confidence in Leigh’s relationship, but Leigh knew she was only looking out for her.
“I’m hoping that won’t be necessary.”
“Me too.”
“Have fun baby. Love you.”
“I love you too.”
Hanging up the phone, Angel glanced at the clock. Thank goodness Leigh had called or she would have been late. As it was, she’d be cutting it close. And that was so not the impression she wanted to give.
Adam
It was a good thing Adam liked cleaning. He liked seeing dirt, dust, and grime being swept away to reveal a gleaming surface underneath. And knowing Angel was coming over to see his house for the first time, he’d been extra motivated. Not that his house ever resembled the stereotypical bachelor pad, but he’d be cleaning today anyway before people came over and he was making everything shine.
The date yesterday with Angel had gone even better than he’d hoped. Now he was more nervous than ever about having invited her over to hang out with his friends. Even though he already knew they liked her too.
The addition of submissives had shifted their group dynamic a bit, and he knew bringing in someone completely from the outside was going to shift it even more. But he hadn’t lied when he said Jessica and Hilary both wanted to spend more time with her, he knew they had questions about the self-defense classes she was going to be teaching. They seemed fascinated by Angel. The fact that she’d successfully disguised herself as a Domme, that she taught women’s self-defense, and she managed to be quite successfully pushy with Michael, who was obviously a Dom intrigued them.
Adam hoped she didn’t think she was going to get away with that kind of shit with him. Unlike Michael, who only muttered about spanking her ass red, he would follow through with it.
Making a face, Adam scrubbed harder at the toilet he was currently working on. He’d invited Michael over today too. It wasn’t that he didn’t like the guy, but he wasn’t sure how he felt about the touchy-feely relationship Michael had with Angel. But it was something Adam would have to deal with.
He’d never considered himself a jealous or possessive person, but then again, he hadn’t had a serious relationship in years. And when he’d been with Brooke, he’d never thought he’d marry her.
The hand holding the scrubber skidded off the toilet and he nearly face planted onto the ceramic before he caught himself.
Jesus... was that how he saw Angel already?
Get your shit together.
It made sense. What was the point in wasting time in a relationship he didn’t think could work out in the long run? Which meant yes, he was already thinking of possible long-term with Angel.
As long as nothing happened to fuck it up and there were no more major surprises.
He couldn’t deal with more surprises.
His phone buzzed and he glanced at the screen.
“Hey Olivia.”
“My car won’t start. I need you to come get me.”
