Noah shifted in his sleep when he felt the blanket being pulled off his body. A warm, petite frame was moving beside him, soft lips kissing down his chest as fingers wrapped around his morning wood. The hand started stroking him as the lips reached his stomach before moving to kiss his tip.
A hot, wet mouth surrounded his glans and started sliding down his length, making him gasp in his sleep. The dancing tongue bathed his shaft in saliva as more and more of him disappeared into the sucking mouth. Light coughing was ultimately what woke Noah, the determined fellatrix having reached the limit of how much cock she could get down her throat.
Slowly opening his eyes, Noah lifted his head and looked down, blinking until the naked form of Hannah McAllister came into focus. The petite brunette was kneeling perpendicular to Noah, her head over his crotch. Brown hair partially-obscured her face as Noah’s eyes devoured her body, from her dangling tits to her tight ass.
Memories from the previous night returned to Noah, from kissing Jane to returning to his old habits and hooking up. He felt guilty, like he was using Hannah for sex. Noah tried to remind himself that Hannah had flirted with him, had initiated sex, and he hadn’t made her any promises. He hadn’t deceived her. When that didn’t help alleviate his feelings, Noah decided to embrace the fact that a hot twenty-year-old woman was sucking his dick.
Reaching out, Noah started playing with a hanging tit as his other hand squeezed a handful of her sexy bottom before giving it a light smack. Hannah moaned loudly as she struggled to keep sucking while Noah slid two fingers inside her. The sexy receptionist gagged and gurgled around Noah’s dick, eventually gasping out an orgasm as her vaginal muscles squeezed his fingers.
Noah relaxed, resting one hand on her head so he could play with her boobs with the other. Hannah kept sucking for several minutes, her cheeks caving in as she moaned and drooled. Letting out a grunt, Noah bucked his hips and filled Hannah’s warm mouth with his salty seed. She coughed slightly, breathing through her nose as she swallowed every drop.
“Mm, morning,” Hannah smiled up at him, her hand gripping his shaft as her lips glistened with the remnants of his load.
“Good morning,” Noah sighed breathlessly, his thumb caressing her scalp.
Hannah released Noah’s dick and stretched before sliding along the bed and grabbing her phone. Sitting cross-legged near Noah, the pretty brunette scrolled on her phone. She seemingly didn’t care in the slightest about her nudity, and Noah couldn’t help but glance down at her pretty little pussy.
“How’d you sleep?” she questioned while typing on her phone.
“Not nearly as well as I woke up,” he chuckled lightly.
Hannah grinned down at her phone. “I’ve heard it can be quite satisfying for a guy to blow a morning load.”
“Any load, really,” Noah smirked, sitting up in bed and grabbing his phone. “Hope you’re not hungover?”
“Nah, I didn’t drink that much,” Hannah shook her head. “I had to have people get drinks for me, so I couldn’t go too crazy.”
“Right, you’re only twenty,” he nodded, smiling at fond memories. “You can function on a hangover and twenty minutes sleep. I did.”
“You’re not that much older than me,” Hannah giggled, brushing a lock of hair behind her ear. “Although, Priya thinks I’m too young for you. And you’ll kick me out of bed as soon as you’re done with me.”
“Ah, Priya,” Noah sighed, scrolling through his texts. “Thankfully, she didn’t text me. So, no psychotic rants.”
“That’ll come when we head down to breakfast,” she pointed out. “Then I’ll remind her that I’m a big girl. It’s my body, it’s my choice who I roll around naked with.”
Noah looked at her in bemusement. “You seem happy.”
“Why wouldn’t I be?” Hannah shrugged. “Had a romantic night with a hot guy and got my world rocked in his bed.”
“That’s quite the compliment,” Noah laughed proudly.
There was a small pause as some awkwardness started to form.
“So,” Hannah began casually as she set her phone down on the bed, “I wanted to check in. About, you know, last night?”
“Okay,” his stomach clenched, but he kept his tone light.
“Don’t worry, I’m not asking for you to declare your undying love or anything,” she said quickly. “I mean, I get it; sometimes sex is just sex.” Hannah fidgeted with her hands as she seemed to struggle with what to say. “My high school had a two-week senior trip, and I went really wild. Really, really wild. I spent a couple nights with one guy. His friend in the next bed got quite a view. Especially when I was bouncing in the guy’s lap.”
Noah shifted slightly, feeling himself starting to harden as he admired the nude woman while imagining her having sex. “That, ah, that sounds like a wild couple of days.”
“Oh, you have no idea,” Hannah purred, her eyes locked on his rapidly-swelling manhood. “We were all eighteen, full of lust and endless stamina. I made him cum three times the first night. In my mouth, in my pussy, and all over my back. Woke him up with a blowjob before riding him until we were both dripping in sweat and too weak to move.”
“What happened next?” Noah asked, sitting cross-legged with his hard dick sticking straight in the air.
“We showered and spent the day touring the country,” Hannah answered, running her fingers along her chest, her pink nipples hard. “I got a couple of cravings, so I took him somewhere private to suck his dick. Behind some bushes, in a back alley. He even fingered me in the back of a bus. I was his little cum slut.”
“Y-you were?” he breathed, his expression heavy with lust.
“Mmhmm,” she bit her lower lip as she nodded, her face flushed. “That night, I was riding my guy while his friend was in the next bed. I could tell he was trying to discreetly jack off under the covers. I felt bad for the guy, so I invited him to join us.”
“Lucky bastard,” Noah whispered.
“I was the lucky one!” Hannah giggled, her hand cupping her bare breast. “It was my first time getting spit-roasted. Mm, sucking dick while getting fucked from behind made me cum so hard. The guys were so turned-on. They just had to keep their dicks wet. If one guy was fucking my face, the other was doing me up the ass.”
“Fuck,” he hissed, resisting the urge to stroke himself.
“I became their little cum slut. They just tossed me around and used my tiny body for their pleasure,” she purred, tugging on her nipple. “I wanted their cum. No! I needed their cum. They came a few times, but for the finale, they wanted to cum on my face. I got on my knees so they could shove their dicks in my face. I sucked and sucked and sucked. Until they both hosed me down with hot cum. It was like a porno, but I was the star. I was- ah!”
Noah’s lust had reached a boiling point, causing him to lunge for Hannah and press his lips to hers. She moaned into his mouth as he put her on her back and got on top. Spreading her legs, Hannah made it easy for Noah to find her pink center. He groaned loudly as he buried himself in her tightness, feeling how soaking wet she was for him.
“Ah! Oh God, fuck! Ah! Ah!” Hannah chanted, her arms wrapped around him as his ass bounced in the air between her spread legs. “Ah! Ah! Ah!”
Driven purely by his passion, Noah’s lovemaking lacked any elegance or rhythm. He was roughly humping Hannah, his large body smothering her petite frame as he grunted in her ear. Her nails dug into his scalp, her breasts pressed against his chest, and her legs wrapped around him tightly. All while her tight pussy molded around his shaft, caressing him as her pleasure spiked.
“Cum ... Slut...” he grunted in her ear as the dirty images filled his mind. “You like being a cum slut?”
“Mm, I love it, baby!” Hannah declared passionately. “I love sucking and swallowing! I love the way hot cum feels in my face and in my mouth! Oh God, keep fucking me! Yes! Ah! Fuck, I love your big dick!”
Noah lifted his body and grabbed Hannah’s tits in both hands while continuing to fuck her. “Are you my cum slut?!”
“Yes! Oh God, yes!” she arched her back, her pussy clamping down on him. “Use my body, take me! Fuck me and cum! Cum all over me!”
“I wanna cum on your face,” he groaned, his balls slapping her ass each time he slammed himself inside her body.
“Do it!” Hannah hissed. “Cum on my slutty face!”
Noah gave Hannah’s pussy another dozen thrusts before pulling out and straddling her chest. The sexy receptionist eagerly opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue, cooing happily as Noah stroked his cock and aimed it at her face. The first rope went in her mouth and up the side of her nose, making her jump slightly. Another shot splattered across her cheek, over her eyebrow, and arced across her forehead. Noah took control and managed to shoot the rest straight into her mouth.
Breathing heavily, Noah held the base of his dick as he looked down at the pretty brunette, her face absolutely covered with semen. Hannah giggled up at him before lifting her head and seductively sucking on his tip. The sensations eventually became too intense, forcing Noah to back away.
“Wow,” Noah gasped, sitting on the bed.
Hannah smirked and sat up, lifting her hand in a peace sign. “How do I look?”
“A bit like a glazed doughnut,” he commented honestly.
“Whatever,” she stuck out her tongue before using her fingers to scoop up some of the semen and pop it into her mouth. “Mm, yummy.”
“You’re great,” Noah grinned widely. “Sorry for jumping you there.”
“Are you kidding? Please do it again!” Hannah giggled, continued cleaning her fingers with her face. “I love when a big, strong guy just fucking takes me.”
“Good to know,” he replied. “Still, we were mid-conversation.”
“We were,” she confirmed. “I believe about what last night and this morning means.”
“Smart to continue the chat while your face is covered in my cum,” Noah said nervously.
“Your fault, not mine,” Hannah shrugged, lowering her hands and looking at him seriously. “I just ... sometimes people treat this stuff like it never happened. I don’t like that.”
Noah nodded slowly. “Yeah, that’s fair.”
Hannah watched his face, clearly trying to read him. It was strange, considering there was still some cum stuck to her eyebrow. “I like you, Noah. I’ve liked you for a long time. I know your reputation, and I know what Priya has said, but...”
“But?” he probed gently.
“We had great sex and I don’t regret it,” she answered slowly. “If we’re just friends after this, fine, I get it. A girl has to shoot her shot though, so I wanted to at least ask.”
“I don’t want to disappear,” Noah replied sincerely.
Hannah visibly relaxed. “Okay. That’s good.”
“I’m trying to be better about, you know,” he ran a hand through his hair, “not treating people like disposable experiences.”
“That’s nice to hear,” she nodded. “S-so, are we just friends going forward? Or...?”
Noah took a few seconds to answer, looking at her face and not even fazed by her nudity. This was what he wanted. Someone kind, steady. Someone who liked him. He didn’t really feel a spark, but Hannah was attractive, she had an energy to her that he liked. Maybe it could work. And maybe Priya wouldn’t cut his cock off if he took Hannah on a date.
“Maybe we can see where this goes,” Noah suggested. “You know, go on an actual date? Dinner, a movie? Uh, something out in public, with clothes on.”
“I’d love that!” she brightened immediately.
He smiled back, hoping his feelings would catch up to his words. “Yeah. Me, too. I, ah, I think Theo and Sienna are doing something today. Maybe we could tag along?”
“Oooh, that sounds perfect!” Hannah gushed. “And you’re going to the shower tomorrow, right? We can go together!”
“That works,” Noah nodded.
Hannah leaned forward and kissed his cheek. “No pressure. We’ll just try and see if this works.”
Noah gave her a small smile as she turned and slipped off the bed, humming quietly as she made her way to the bathroom. His eyes briefly dropped to her perfect peach of an ass, and desire to fuck her butt consumed him. Yet, there were no fireworks. Only lust. He told himself fireworks were overrated; he never felt them anyway. Maybe he just needed something to hold onto. The spark would come later.
Sighing heavily, Noah joined Hannah in the shower for some grab-ass and another blowjob. He then dressed in casual clothes while Hannah put on a robe. The two of them went to her hotel room so she could get clean clothes, dressing in a t-shirt and a pair of light gray shorts.
The large hotel restaurant slowly filled, more like the tide coming in than the arrival of a massive crowd. Warm sunlight spilled through the windows, glinting off polished tables. The air smelled of strong coffee and delicious breakfast food. A large breakfast buffet was provided against a back table, well stocked with common choices.
Glancing around, Noah spotted Steven sitting at a large table with Megan. It was the first time Noah had seen Megan when she wasn’t all made up; she was wearing casual clothes, her long raven hair in a thick ponytail. The two of them were sipping coffees, their plates piled high.
“Good morning,” Steven smiled when Noah and Hannah approached the table with food and drinks.
“Good morning, Noah,” Megan inclined her head. “Hannah.”
“Morning,” Noah replied, placing his food on the table and pulling out a chair for Hannah.
“M-morning, ma’am,” Hannah squeaked nervously.”
“No need to be so formal,” the CEO smiled. “Please, join us.”
“Thank you,” Hannah nodded quickly, taking her seat.
Sienna and Theo were the next to appear, holding hands as they approached the food table. Theo looked stunned, as if he was unable to comprehend that the previous night actually happened. Sienna was grinning widely, clearly comfortable and confident. The redhead took the lead, guiding Theo along the table to get food and drinks.
Jane came in alone, dressed simply with her hair pulled back. Her gaze lingered on Megan before she went to make her breakfast and join the Gang at their table. Leslie and Conner sat at the end of the table, closest to the bathroom. Conner pulled out Leslie’s chair and helped her get settled in. Leslie smiled at her husband, tired but happy.
The four male members of The Gang of Eight had their method of silent communication for when they wanted to discuss something without the ladies knowing. Noah was convinced that Theo and Sienna had gone all the way, but Theo quickly confirmed that wasn’t the case. Steven got several looks as he tried to avoid their gaze, not wanting to confirm he had slept with the big boss.
“How’s Camilla?” Sienna asked after they all noticed Logan enter the restaurant.
“Alright,” Jane shrugged. “She invited the rideshare driver inside to spend the night.”
“That is one hell of a tip,” Noah chuckled. Theo laughed as well, stopping only when noticing the look Sienna gave him.
Other employees drifted in and out while the group ate and talked. They heard fragments of conversation, the occasional laughter, and the clinking of utensils. Priya eventually walked in, waving to Hannah while ignoring Noah. She sat at a nearby table with Angela Kim, Vanessa Lake, and Sophie Tran.
Over the course of breakfast, Leslie excused herself twice, each time returning with a small smile and a comment about pregnancy having few dignities. Megan shared a couple of her own experiences from when she was carrying Carter. It was a nice bonding moment for the two women.
Noah made sure to shower Hannah with attention, joking and asking questions. It wasn’t flirting, really. It felt more like Noah was trying to prove something to himself. Hannah touched his arm and he didn’t pull away, though he didn’t really lean in either.
People slowly started leaving, and soon Theo and Noah were alone at their table with Sienna and Hannah. The four of them stood and started heading toward the door. That was when Priya made her move; leaving her own table and intercepting the group. Her hands on her hips, she stared down Noah.
“What do you have to say for yourself?” Priya asked, looking like she was resisting the urge to slap Noah.
“She came onto me, I swear!” Noah raised his hands defensively. “It’s not my fault I’m pretty.”
“Pretty dumb,” Sienna snorted, making Theo chuckle.
“You!” Priya growled dangerously, ignoring the others.
“It’s true, I initiated everything,” Hannah insisted. “And I’ll remind you that we’re both consenting adults.”
“He’s just gonna ditch you,” Priya sighed, looking at Hannah. “I don’t want him to hurt you. Or anyone.”
“I’m not like that anymore!” Noah insisted, wincing at the incredulous look Priya gave him. “I’m not! We’re gonna try going on dates and see what happens.”
“I’m sure you say that to every girl you bone,” Priya scoffed.
“Well, yeah,” Noah admitted. “But, but! I mean it this time! I’m sorry, I know you’re upset I might be off the market.”
“I’d let that superhero with the retractable bone claws near my lady bits before you,” Priya stated flatly.
“That’s a little harsh, don’t you think?” Noah pouted while Theo and Sienna laughed.
“I’d also call you a cunt, but you lack depth and warmth,” Priya retorted.
“You stole that from the internet,” Noah crossed his arms.
“Yeah, so?” Priya frowned.
“So, it’s not true!” Noah argued. “Look! Theo and Sienna are going out this afternoon. We’re gonna go with them on a double date.”
“You are?” Theo frowned, grunting when Sienna elbowed him. “Oh, right. Yes, they’re coming with us.”
“Why do you care so much about my sex life, Priya?” Noah challenged. “I really do get the sense you might be jealous.”
“My last friend quit when you broke her heart,” Priya reminded him. “I don’t want that to happen again.”
“It won’t,” Hannah said firmly. “If things don’t work out, we’ll be friends. He didn’t just hump me and dump me. He’s right here.”
“Just be careful, okay?” Priya sighed.
“I won’t do anything you wouldn’t do,” Hannah promised.
“Don’t you dare say anything,” Sienna glared at her boyfriend before turning her gaze to Noah. “Either of you.”
After Priya left, the four of them agreed to meet up later that afternoon. Sienna wanted to go home and see her parents, while Theo and Noah were also gonna head back to their place and relax. Hugs were exchanged before they went their separate ways. Behind them, the Winslow Hotel filled with new guests who had no idea what had happened the previous night.
Cornelia Street was silent as Megan’s red sports car pulled up to the old garage door. She quickly hit the remote switch, raising the door and allowing her to park her car. Steven left his stuff in the car, but did grab Megan’s overnight bag and garment bag as he followed the heiress further into the beautiful home.
“Mommy!” Carter squealed, jumping up from the living room floor and rushing to embrace Megan.
“Hey, big guy!” Megan sighed happily, wrapping her arms around her son and kissing the top of his head.
“Nell,” Steven waved to the beautiful blonde sitting on the couch.
“Steven,” Nell inclined her head.
While Megan blew raspberries on Carter’s face, Steven took in the living room. Nell was sitting cross-legged on the couch with a book open in her lap. Dinosaur figures were scattered chaotically on the floor all around them. Several plastic building blocks were mixed in with the dinosaurs. There were also plenty of pillows and blankets, making Steven think they had spent the night in the living room. Steven also couldn’t help but be aware of how it must look to Carter; him arriving with Megan.
“Hi, Steven!” Carter said, rushing over to give him a high-five.
“Good to see you, Carter,” Steven smiled, returning the high-five.
“How was the party?” Carter questioned, looking between Steven and his mother.
“It does look like someone had a great night,” Nell teased. “Someone’s got a VERY interesting glow about her.”
“Nell!” Megan hissed angrily.
“It was fun,” Steven interjected. “Everyone is very happy that our new boss is giving out more vacation days.”
“Yeah, vacation!” Carter cheered happily.
“You don’t get the days off that Steven does, you still have to go to school,” Megan laughed.
“Lame!” Carter sighed.
“Hey, we’re all going to Fiji in a few weeks!” Nell reminded him.
“Will we do stuff together? The four of us?” Carter looked at his mother hopefully.
“Of course we will,” Megan smiled, her hand on her son’s shoulder. She then looked at Nell. “How was he?”
“He slept like a rock,” Nell stated. “Out all night.”
“No, I woke up when I heard Aunt Nell fart!” Carter grinned.
“Excuse me?” Nell gasped in mock-outrage. “You were the one stinking up the fort last night!”
“That was your feet, Aunt Nell,” Carter giggled proudly.
“I smell like sunshine and roses,” Nell declared, blowing a raspberry at Carter.
“Thank you for staying over,” Megan interrupted the rude faces Carter and Nell were making at each other. “I owe you.”
“No, you don’t,” Nell replied easily. “I love this little man. Usually.”
Steven quietly watched the exchange, a small smile on his face. They got along well. He was glad that Nell and Megan were sharing everything with each other again. As nice as the scene was, he felt conflicted as he considered the complications. Him, Steven Martucci, dating an heiress. He still had trouble believing it was all real.
“Do you want me to make some coffees?” Steven offered.
“I already made some,” Nell replied, nodding toward the kitchen. “Still hot.”
Megan smiled. “You’re a lifesaver.”
“I’m a bean trader,” Penelope said, standing up.
Penelope and Megan headed for the kitchen; their voices low as they held a whispered conversation. Steven set down Megan’s bags as Carter plopped himself down on the floor and started sorting his dinosaurs by size. With a smile, Steven sat across from Carter and picked up a triceratops.
“You wanna build something?” Steven offered, picking up a plastic building piece.
“A zoo,” Carter nodded. “But a good one.”
“Naturally,” Steven agreed. “A dinosaur zoo would be amazing. Although, there’s a few movies that make it seem like a bad idea.”
“The dinosaurs would get out and scare people,” Carter commented.
“Yeah, that’s exactly what would happen,” Steven nodded, remembering the first movie where the IT guy sold out the company for a fortune. “And you’d need a really, really big bird cage for the pterodactyls.”
“You and Nell love birds,” Carter observed while gathering up the building pieces.
“We do,” Steven chuckled. “I hope we see some colorful ones in Fiji.”
“Me, too!” Carter grinned.
They worked quietly for several minutes to build their dinosaur zoo. Steven handed pieces over to help build enclosures while Carter corrected him when he got things wrong. The bundle of nerves in Steven’s stomach disappeared as he enjoyed the simple activity, enjoyed being present in a simple moment.
Megan soon returned with two cups of coffee. “Thirsty?”
“Yes, please,” Steven said, accepting the cup.
“We were just talking about Fiji,” Nell added, her coffee in a travel mug. “A whole week of relaxation. Oh, and a wedding thing.”
“Terrifying,” Megan sighed, a small smile on her face. “I haven’t talked to Preston in years.”
“Is he nice?” Carter asked.
“Yeah, he’s nice,” Megan said after considering the question. “Don’t worry, everyone will be nice there. We’ll all have fun.”
The wedding brought Steven’s nerves right back. A week away from the office, from boundaries, from the unspoken feelings. He wondered what it would feel like to be included. Steven had gone to a couple of events with Megan, but he always felt like he was hovering at the edges of Megan’s life. He would be part of it, yet still out of place. He wasn’t rich, he didn’t grow up with a butler, a driver, a chef, and a nanny.
Carter held up a stegosaurus. “This one guards the babies.”
“That’s a very important job,” Steven nodded.
“Okay, I’m gonna head out,” Nell announced, taking a sip of her coffee. “I’ve got errands and-” Penelope paused, glancing between Steven and Megan. “Things.”
“You just wanna get away from me,” Steven smirked, getting to his feet.
“I know how much Carter farts, so I imagine older guy farts are even worse,” Nell teased, hugging Steven and kissing his cheek.
“Oh, you have no idea,” Steven replied while Carter laughed.
Penelope left, and it was just the three of them. Megan sat down with Steven and Carter so they could finish creating Carter’s dinosaur zoo. When finished, they sat on the couch, Carter in the middle and the dinosaurs abandoned on the floor. Carter picked out a movie and they settled in to watch it together.
Megan glanced over at Steven a few times, her expression soft. At one point, he thought she wanted to say something, but instead she grabbed a blanket and draped it over the three of them. The moment was amazing, and Steven started imagining what it would be like in the future, watching a movie on the couch with his family; his wife and children. Would those people be Megan and Carter?
After the movie, Steven had to head home. He said goodbye to Carter before walking down to the garage with Megan. Steven got his bags out of his car, turning down her offer for a ride home. He didn’t want her to have to get Carter ready just for him. Instead they stood by the open door to say goodbye.
“You were invited to the shower, right?” Steven asked.
“Yeah, I’ll make an appearance,” Megan confirmed with a nod. “I’m glad Sphinx is such a close-knit group.”
“Me, too,” Steven smiled.
“Thank you,” she said quietly.
“For what?” he frowned.
“For last night,” Megan smiled. “And for today. For the gift. I told Nell in the kitchen. She said it was the sweetest thing ever.”
“I’m glad she liked the idea,” Steven grinned.
Steven wanted to say more. He wanted to discuss his feelings, ask Megan to be his girlfriend then and there. He didn’t. It wasn’t time. They had agreed to talk about it in Fiji, and Steven would honor that. He still had his concerns over Megan’s status, but he had already decided that wasn’t going to get in the way.
Megan reached out and cupped his face, leaning in to softly kiss him. It was a gentle, loving kiss; their tongues lightly dancing as they stood a few inches apart. Steven sighed sadly when it ended, returning the hug that Megan gave him. He then left to get on the subway back to his apartment, wishing he could have spent another night with Megan Bauer. To him, she was just Megan. He didn’t care about her status, he cared about her as a person.
In another part of Manhattan, four young people were being shown to their table at a casual restaurant. Sienna slid into the booth beside Theo, their shoulders touching with a comfortable familiarity. Noah noticed because Hannah was careful to leave some space between them on their side, as if she wasn’t sure if she were allowed to be that intimate in public with him.
“So,” Sienna began brightly while opening her menu, “we all agree this is a date and not a work dinner?”
Theo nodded. “Agreed.”
“Yes, definitely!” Hannah laughed softly.
“Work or social, I’m never calling Theo ‘sir,’” Noah said before taking a sip of water.
“Mm, I might do that,” Sienna purred, bumping Theo’s shoulder playfully.
Noah smiled in relief that the conversation seemed to be flowing naturally. Being nervous on a date was new to Noah, but so was being on a date after already sleeping with the woman. He took a sip of his water before returning to his menu, determined to settle into the role of boyfriend. Well, potential boyfriend.
They ordered drinks and a couple of appetizers to snack on while discussing the party and Megan’s speech. Their entrees arrived not long after, and Noah noticed how casually Sienna stole one of Theo’s fries, smiling cutely as she took a bite out of the potato. It was such a simple act, but it showed they were a couple.
“You okay?” Hannah whispered.
“Yeah,” Noah quickly replied. “Just tired. Long week.”
“And a long night,” Hannah waggled her eyebrows as she squeezed his thigh.
“Awesome night,” Noah grinned. “And morning.”
“We can hear you, you know?” Theo spoke up, making everyone laugh.
The discussion flowed through more safe topics: the extra vacation days, the upcoming holiday party, and the baby shower. Noah joked about Camilla’s exit, earning him eye rolls from the girls. Theo blushed when his dancing came up, causing Sienna to wrap an arm around him and kiss his cheek affectionately. Noah was once again reminded of what a real connection was supposed to look like.
