Happy Father's Day
to all the fathers and father figures out there!
So… Orphan Black is almost over for this
season and *eep* I still have way more questions than answers. That said, I
don't care. I love everything about this season. Although, I guess I should ask
if it's really wrong I pretty much cheered on Helena throughout last night's
entire episode? No? Good. And Donnie and Alison. Twisted and creepy, but holy
shit, I laughed, even though I shouldn't have. :D
Tonight's post is
from Lucky Seven, a short story about
what happens when two co-workers overindulge at a corporate retreat's casino
night.
Here's the tagline:
Daisy and Shae work for the same company and they end up
overindulging at a corporate casino night, waking up next to each other the
next morning. What starts as an awkward one night stand turns into something
neither expects, or is really looking for.
And a snippety peek…
Daisy blinked. "Yeah, so."
She scrambled backwards off the bed, dragging the sheet with her.
Bad idea. The heavy coverlet only
covered Shae's feet.
He dragged the bedspread up and
over his groin. "Right." He sat up, propping his shoulders against
the cushioned headboard.
He glanced toward the empty side
of the bed. "You know—"
Daisy wrapped the sheet tighter
around her. "Uh, nope. Not gonna happen." Tempted, she backed up
several feet.
Shae quirked a brow. "Just
did last night." His lips curved in a sly grin.
Daisy's face flamed. "Yeah,
I know. But…" Get out, you damned
man before I give in to temptation.
Shae nodded. "Gotcha. One
time deal." He lingered in the bed, not in a hurry to leave.
Daisy agreed. "Exactly."
She waited a beat, then prodded. "Yeah, so…"
Shae sighed. "Right. Getting
up now." He threw the coverlet aside, giving her a splendid view of his
hard body.
She whirled around, committing
the picture he presented to memory.
Shae rustled around behind her,
hopefully getting dressed.
He cleared his throat and she
risked a backward glance. He stood, dressed in last night's clothes, his jacket
flung over his shoulder. She finally relaxed.
He made his way to the door.
"So, um, thanks. You know for…" His hand twisted the knob.
Daisy groaned. "Don't mention
it. Ever." She softened her tone. "Please."
Shae nodded. "Yeah, okay.
See you at work on Monday." He pulled the door open and exited her room.
Daisy crossed the space and sank
down onto the side chair. Best sex of her life and she couldn't have a repeat
performance.
Life sucked balls sometimes.
Honestly? This one
is fun to write. Started with a prompt from one of my writing communities and
the story has taken off from there. J
That's it for this
week. Happy reading!
