Even though the company was having a rough time right now, he felt it was still safer than moving. The bar had been fairly crowded when he had gone in...and was filling up even more. There were only a few open seats at the bar, so when a guy sat down next to him, Jason thought nothing of it. After a few minutes, the guy started talking. “Hi. I’m Alex.” “Jason.” “Hi Jason.

He smiles and kisses her. “See, I knew you liked it,” he said. With that, he smacks her thigh. He brings his face down to her pussy again, kissing all the way down.
