After we got dressed, I followed him out to the waiting room area and unlocked the door.
“What did my dad say to you?” I asked him suddenly. I almost forgot to bring it up.
“When?” he asked.
“When he pulled you away, and you guys were all secretive.”
Justin kissed me. “That’s for me to know, and for you to not know,” he said and then winked.
“I’m serious, what was it about?” I tried to hide my smile.
“We were just talking sports.”
I crossed my arms over my chest. “Really? That’s it?”
“Yeah, pretty much. He said he would invite Margie and me to a Patriots game sometime.”
I studied his face to see if he was telling the truth or not, and when I decided he wasn’t lying, I said, “Okay. I believe you. And yes, the box seats are a lot of fun.”
Justin laughed. “Feel better?”
“I guess so,” I said.
I gave him a hug. “Thanks for that. You know… in there.?
?
“No, thank you,” he said, repeating my words from before. He kissed me and added, “I’ll call you later?”
I nodded my head. “Sure.”
I didn’t want to admit it out loud yet in case he didn’t feel the same, but at that moment, I realized something huge: I was starting to fall in love with Justin.
It was hard for me to get through the rest of the day. I had a hard time concentrating on the math I had to do and figured I would just get it done tomorrow. I left the studio early and headed home, but I couldn’t get Justin or the amazing sex we just had off my mind.
That night, as I was laying on my couch, my phone rang. I glanced at and smiled. It was him.
“Hey, you. I was wondering if you were going to call,” I said with a laugh.
“I told you I would. I was waiting to put Margie down for bed.”
“Makes sense,” I said.
“How are your parents?” he asked.
“They’re good. They want to take the three of us to a theme park on Saturday,” I said before I quickly added, “If you guys aren’t busy. I’m not sure how long they plan to stick around this time, but I know they want to see you guys again.”
Justin made a “hmm” noise for a minute. “I’ve got to think about that.”
My heart dropped, and then I heard him laugh.
“Just kidding. We are free and would love to go.”
“Has she ever been to a theme park?” I asked him.
“Nope. I think she will love it though. Please tell your parents thank you for us if you talk to them before Saturday,” he said.
“I will. Are you doing any better?” I asked. “You know, after today?” I winked.
