“Dr. Yummers?”
“The dentist,” I clarified, and he nodded in understanding.
“Mommy takes me to see Dr. Yummers all the time. And then, if I’ve been a good girl, he gives me candy too.”
“Your dentist gives you candy?” He raised an eyebrow at me as though in accusation, but I just smiled.
“It’s standard procedure at Dr. Yamkuahs.” Dr. Yamkuah was Violet’s regular dentist who she referred to as Dr. Yummers because she couldn’t pronounce his real name properly.
“Yes,” my daughter agreed. “Because I brush my teeth every morning and night. See?” She flashed her teeth at him, and he gave her a warm smile in response.
“What about showers?” he asked. “How many times do you take those?”
“A lot!” she answered.
I wondered about the interview-style questions he was giving her, then realized he probably didn’t know what else to say to his daughter. He didn’t look like the type who spent much time with children and likely didn’t know how to relate. This was him trying.
And for her part, Violet didn’t seem to mind. My daughter was usually quiet, but she seemed to have warmed up to him very much.
Seeing them together was causing a conflict within me that I wasn’t expecting.
Later, as I was on the date with Nick, my mind wandered back to it.
He talked to her for nearly thirty minutes before we left, even though the babysitter had already arrived. Affection gleamed in his expression during the interaction. Was it real? Or was it all for play?
I just couldn’t figure him out.
He said something, and Violet smiled. Nick smiled, too, as he reached out and tweaked her nose, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
Then, he turned and looked at me.
My heart leaped in my chest at the tender look in his eyes.
I just couldn’t figure him out.

Later that night,I stared at Nick across the candle-lit table as he cut his steak. My eyes were immediately drawn to his big hands and the way they held the knife strongly. For some reason, my mind went back to that night in high school when he grasped my waist firmly as his mouth played with my clit. Before I could dwell on the thought for too long, his eyes caught mine, and I immediately looked away. I got the sense he was laughing at me, but I couldn’t bring myself to look back and know for sure.
This was my second date with Nick, the second one where I had to smile and play pretend for the cameras hidden in the masses.
“Enjoying your dinner?” he asked teasingly. “Or are you going to watch me all night?”
I glanced up at him. Was he mocking me? He knew I was turned on the last time, and now he was laughing at me for it. Did he plan on teasing me again tonight, all just for me to return to my bed with tormented dreams?
God, it infuriated me that he had this effect on me, that he would always have the upper hand.
Unless…I turned it around.
Without thinking too much, I slid my flat off and trailed my feet up the side of his leg. His eyes went dark, and a smirk appeared at the corner of his lips, a dare flaring in his eyes. He leaned back, spreading his legs even wider, challenging me. He thought I wouldn’t follow through.
He didn’t understand just how daring I was feeling tonight.
My foot went higher and higher until it was eventually between his legs. Surprise filled his expression when my foot touched his cock, and then he bit out a moan as I started to massage it.
His eyes slid shut, his fingers tightening around his fork and knife.
Losing my nerve, I yanked my foot off, wearing my flat once again.
