He happily agreed and helped preparing the meal. They had a lovely evening. George read to Liam and Fiona in bed and joined Joanna and Catherine for a...cup of tea while they waited for Dave to return. Well and truly over the puppy-love, Catherine was much freer and relaxed around George, flopping down in the sofa next to him and pulling his arm around her. "I hope you're jealous of Thomas," she said."Deadly," George replied dead-pan. "I will have to meet him, judge if he is good enough for you. My boobs jiggled crazily, pulled roughly from the cleavage-baring dress I'd been wearing, and as my headband slid ever further down my back, my hair was coming loose. One sleeve was undone, one stocking was torn, and I was so worn out and sweaty from passionate exertion that I felt like I'd just stepped out of the shower I was totally going to need once they were done fucking the absolute living daylights out of me.Somehow I managed to catch Emily's eye, to actually focus for a second instead. It's killing that poor girl. We have been very fortunate in our acquaintances. Many of our friends are deeply in love. Yet no couple represents the union of two people the way Jim and Kerry do. It's truly remarkable."Casey had folded his arms. It was apparent he was not listening and nothing could move him from his position. Mary said, "Thank you for coming to see me today, Mr. Casey. There's one more thing I would like you to do. Would you please accompany Susan and me to an art exhibit that. Anything. Your wife and I will always be there to support you.” I nodded to her and her smile was huge. “At home or at the office. You already have the best wife anyone could have. I commit to you both that I will become the best PA for you. We have your back, sir.”She stood up and grabbed us each by the hand. “Come on. That turned me on so much I need to see some serious fucking happening.” She led us to the staircase to the upstairs.That night would be the catalyst that would alter what was.
