I could wait.

I could wait if he could.

An alarm went off on his watch, and he cursed.

Reaching into his pocket, he produced a set of keys and tossed them my way.

“Keys to the pool house,” he said. “I have two driveways. Use the second one. Also, you have an interview with my mother at one o’clock…she won’t care what you’re wearing.” He paused. “And before you start saying that you can’t move into a house before you know if you have a job, this is all a formality. She wants to meet you. Get you set up in the system. Paperwork filled out, etc.”

I looked down at my cut-off jean shorts and boob-revealing pink tank top.

“Yeah,” I said. “I’m not wearing this.”

He looked sad. So sad, in fact, that his lip poked out into the smallest of pouts.

“Damn,” he said, pout disappearing. “I was going to bring lunch, too.”

Then he was gone, nodding at my father who was still sitting in the parked truck.

My mother was still in the truck, also. She was too busy shoving a donut into her face to notice Lock leaving.

My dad, however, didn’t miss a single thing.

Dad got out just as Lock was riding his motorcycle down the road.

I watched until I couldn’t see him anymore.

Mainly because his ass looked like two juicy melons sitting on top of that motorcycle seat.

When I sat down on a motorcycle seat, my ass formed around the seat. The seat didn’t conform to me—not like Lock’s did.

And those pants!

Holy shit.

The pants, paired with the tight shirt that showed off an impressive chest?

Yeah, that was definitely something I needed a picture of, you know, for educational purposes later.

I whipped out my phone, wondering if I could zoom in really fast, when my father finally made it to my side.

“What are you doing?” he asked.

I looked at him guiltily.

“He just offered me a job.” I looked at him shamefacedly. “His mom owns her own imaging company. They cater to pregnant women wanting sonograms and stuff.”

I was honestly afraid to look at him when the silence went on for so long.

Finally Lock disappeared from sight, and my photo opportunity was lost.

I looked over to see my dad staring at me.

“What?” I asked.

“You like him,” he said. “You want to stay because of him.”

I flushed.
