’ Jeremy threw his hands up in defense. ‘Why didn’t you tell me?’ ‘Gwen said she wanted to tell Jessie in person and I didn’t want to brea... her trust. Quinn shouldn’t have pulled that shit.’ ‘This is more than just sex, isn’t it?’ Tyler pushed his hand through his hair. He knew that Gwen meant more to him than just a booty call, but he was not in the mood to talk about that with Jeremy, especially when he had not even told Gwen how he felt. How could he? She was not talking to him. She would. As usual, Ron was going commando, and only had the pleated khaki shorts on to absorb his mistake. He felt another sneeze coming and he quelled it with a squeeze of the nose. He thought he had heard someone behind him say, "God bless you," but he ignored it to deal with the shame of the moment. He was wearing a polo shirt that luckily extended farther than his crotch, but Ron couldn't help feel the wetness against his penis. He wanted to look, but he dared not to, hoping no one would notice for. Do we have anyone scheduled for the next week?"I looked at Shelly who shrugged and Jurgen who also signaled he didn't know."OK, I'll call Bart in the morning and see if we do. I'll try and make arrangements for any work to get done somewhere else by someone we can trust. I don't want any customer thinking we don't care about their business."Mom, would you please call Ted in the morning and arrange a meeting for you and me? We need to talk about new pumps and signs. Sure as heck we won't get 'em. I suggest that you do not risk ordering him to do things that you know will cause him conflict. I think that you have to slowly turn him, move him in your direction bit by bit. After all he did occasionally wash the dishes and mow the lawn. Just work on it by one step at a time and see how it goes. By all means try what we did today as often as you like, but I think that for some reason that well never understand, his mind slipped a gear a few nights ago and he is as ready as hell ever be! Mary.
