I came back she had folded my clothes and left them on the couch for me.
“So what are you escaping from this time?” I said as she pulled her shirt over her head.
“Zack sent me a bunch of stuff and wrote me a note saying he wants to talk.” I put my boxers on. The tag was sticking out of the back of her shirt, so I put it back in for her, even though she flinched at the simple gesture.
“Don’t do it,” I said.
She turned her head to look at me, her eyes blazing and her cheeks still flushed from the sex.
“Don’t tell me what to do,” she snapped.
Christ, I needed to wave a white flag with this girl every time I opened my mouth. “I’m not. Just advising. It isn’t a good idea.”
“Well thank you so much for your concern, guy I just fucked, but I’ve got plenty of concern and I don’t need it from you.” She pulled on her boots and smoothed her hair, re-doing her ponytail. “I don’t need anything from you except a physical distraction, and now that I’ve got it I’m going to go back to my room to watch movies with my friends and smile and be fine. Because I am.”
I smiled at her. “Okay, sweetheart. You’re fine.”
She glared at me and put her purse over her shoulder and pulled out her keys.
“Don’t patronize me.”
I shook my shirt out and pulled it over my head.
“Sorry. My mistake.” Upon further inspection, the banjo seemed to be unscathed, so I set it on my lap and played a little tune.
“Sooo, bye. I’ll call you.” She paused for just a moment with the door half-open.
I grinned at her. “Me and my dick are looking forward to it.”
She glared again and shook her head before slamming the door.
