I kick her. “You’re not helping.”
She sits up. “I’ll help. How do you think mermaids have sex?”
Cindy blushes. “Can you maybe leave?”
Paisley sighs. “It’s fine. I’ll get them out of here.” Cindy bustles away. I can’t blame her.
“Haven’t you been drinking?”
“I had one shot.”
“She thinks she’s a golf prodigy,” Nova whisper shouts.
“I’m too old to be a prodigy.”
Nova points to the golf club Paisley’s holding. “But you do have your own putter.”
“This isn’t…”
I pat Paisley on the arm. “There’s no reasoning with a drunk person.”
Maya rolls onto her front and gets up on her knees. “We better get Sophia home. She needs to have mermaid sex in the bathtub with Flynn.”
“I am not…” I trail off when I realize I’m doing exactly what I told Paisley not to do – reasoning with a drunk person.
It’s not as if I can reason with my friends when they’re sober either. They want all the juice about Flynn.
I’m not telling them anything. They don’t need to know I’m falling for Flynn.
Whoa. Falling for Flynn? I’m not falling for him. I’m enjoying spending time with him and getting to know him as an adult without my family around as a barrier. I’m enjoying nights spent in his arms and days of excitement when I can’t wait to see him again.
Shit. I am falling for Flynn.
Chapter 24
It’s not arguing when I’m explaining why I’m right.
Flynn
I’m waiting inside the door when Sophia walks into the house.
“Hey.” She smiles in greeting and warmth fills me. The sight of her smile makes all of the work I did to prepare her surprise worth it.
I kiss her cheek. “I have a surprise for you.”
Her eyes light with excitement. “You do? What is it?”
“It’d hardly be a surprise if I told you.”
“But I can guess. Did you buy a merman suit for you and a mermaid suit for me and we’re going swimming in the ocean together in costume?”
I chuckle. I heard all about the mermaid sex discussion at the mini golf course when Sophia arrived home last night. Unfortunately, she was more than a little tipsy and passed outin bed before I could strip her clothes off and complete my mermaid fantasies.
“No?” She taps her chin. “Are you going to put on your football uniform from high school and I’ll finally get a chance to be the girl who catches the football player?”
“Is this a fantasy of yours?”
She licks her lips. “Those football uniforms were pretty sexy.”
