And honestly, I needed the distraction. I needed to keep my mind off things and how much trouble my sweet little boy might be in with his health. I just had to put myself in a good headspace and pray that he would get better.

I went to the mini bar and poured myself a decent sized glass of bourbon. I needed something to take the edge off right now, otherwise sleep was going to be a remote possibility if I was lucky. That was already the case since I’d have to do a bunch of work overnight to make sure I could take off most of tomorrow and just work at home.

I sat down with it and then suddenly it came to me. “Brittany.”

My niece. She was my sister’s daughter. At the time she was fifteen. I liked to go over to dinner at their house a few times a month. I wondered if she’d be available. I would pay her well; a lot more than most babysitting jobs would cost. This would free me up to go into the office in the afternoon when she and Jack were both off school. Then I could come home about eight or so and I’d be ok. Right. This would work. I just hoped she was available.

“Hey, sis. How is it going?” I asked when Barb answered the phone.

“Hey, stranger. Where have you been? Working like crazy of course.”

“Right you are,” I said. “But other than that, I’m doing fine.”

“Well, I am glad to hear it.”

“And how is Brittany doing?”

“Oh, she is fine. She actually just made head cheerleader. The squad starts practice in two weeks. She is so excited. Head cheerleader as a junior. I can’t believe it. But she is so talented. Those years of gymnastics really paid off.

“Ah, that’s incredible,” I said. I was really impressed. “I’ll have to come to some games and the first cheerleading meet I am so there. You just let me know when and where.”

“We will.”

“Great. Listen, is Brittany still doing any babysitting? I’ve just lost my nanny and I need someone urgently to watch Jack in the afternoons after preschool.”

“I’ll ask her,” she said. I heard her and Brittany murmuring back and forth a few moments and then she came back on the line. “She said she would be glad to, but only until cheerleading starts in two weeks.”

“That’s fine. I should be able to get a permanent nanny in place by then. But tell her thanks and I’ll see her tomorrow at three.”

We chatted a few more minutes just catching up and I agreed to have dinner at Barb’s house Sunday. She desperately wanted to see Jack as well.

After the phone call ended, I found myself breathing a little easier. This was going to be rough. I was sure that Brittany would be fine with Jack, but getting work in, meetings, scouting locations, golf games, and just being out there to make deals I knew that my business might suffer a little bit. But it was only for a few weeks, maybe less if I could get another nanny in place faster.

And I probably wouldn’t be able to swing by the bar for a bit. I wasn’t going to have the time. Shit. That was a highlight of my day, but my son always came first in my life. I had to do what I had to do. This was very inconvenient, but I was determined to make it work.

I sipped the whiskey and thought about Laney. She meant a lot to me. I saw that now. I was already missing her. I wanted to take her out for an actual date. I wanted to hold her. I wanted to kiss her and feel her against me. I needed her body to be with mine. I desperately wanted to be inside of her. I needed her that badly. I could hardly stand not being with her right then.

And I wasn’t going to be anywhere near her for a while. That would be physically painful. She would probably move on and become interested in someone else. I would become yesterday’s news. I laughed at the idea, but it was very real. I wondered how much she actually cared about me. Or was I just some customer to her?

I tried to block out those negative thoughts, but they were persistent. I made my way to the office and got some work done on the laptop for a bit. I answered a ton of emails and then I did some market research. After I was done I went through my calendar and tried to see what I would be able to move around to make my new responsibilities fit my schedule.

Afterwards it was getting late and I decided to head to bed. I stripped my clothes and slid into bed nude as I always slept. The way the sheets slid against my genitals was very pleasurable as it always is. I closed my eyes and imagined how good it would feel to have Laney right there to rub my body, to slide against me with her own, and to feel her hand reach around my cock and stroke it as hard as it would go and then apply her mouth.
