“So girls, how was your day? My wife asked.
‘It was good”, Jessica said, “just normal school stuff“. She then looked at Ashley and giggled a little bit.
“What’s so funny?” I asked with a smile.
“Oh nothing, it’s just that…a boy asked me out today.” Jessica said excitedly.
“Oh, really?” Judy asked, sounding excited. However, I was not.
“What boy?’ I asked somewhat sternly
“Just a guy in my chemistry class.”
“What’s his name?” I asked her.
“Jeff”, she told me.
“Well, I’d like to meet him”, I told her. Just then I saw Ashley smile at me from the corner of my eye.
“Why are you giving me the third degree?” Jessica asked, “Am I not allowed to have guy friends?”
“It’s not that”, I said, “I just want to make sure you’re safe.”
Jessica rolled her eyes. “I’ll be fine.”
“Don’t roll your eyes at me, young lady”, I told her sternly, and after that, she backed down and apologized. She was a good kid, we hardly ever fought, so any minor argument was quickly resolved.
But just then I felt Ashley’s foot from across the table, playing with mine. She gave me a quick subtle smile as we shared our secret under the table.
Flustered, I got up from the table. “I have to go to the bathroom.”
I left the kitchen and walked down the hall to clear my thoughts. I went to the sink first, splashing water over my face as I ran my hands over my head.
What am I going to do? I asked myself. I was hopelessly attracted to my daughter’s best friend, and she wanted me too. It was only a matter of time before we both succumbed to our temptations.
It was when I was thinking about this when I heard the door open. It was Ashley.
“What are you doing here?” I asked her.
She smiled. “It’s okay, I told them I was getting a soda in the garage.”
She closed the door behind her and wrapped her arms around me, caressing my chest with her soft hands.
“I just can’t wait any longer”, she said as she kissed me passionately.
I kissed her back with equal passion, holding her tightly as I explored her mouth. The fire reignited between us as I pushed her up against the sink, kissing her hungrily as her hands ran down my back.
But when I opened my eyes and looked in the mirror, I snapped out of my trance again with her and I pushed her away.
“Stop” I said, a hint of anger in my voice.
