“You sound like you are leaving quite a bitof the make-up session out.”
“I am. Some things are just for Jason andme.” Vicky giggled like a school girl.
“Did you tell him yet?”
“He’s aware.”
“Hmmm, that’s sounds interesting but we’regoing to have to finish this call up a little bit later Josh justtext to let me know he’s on his way over.”
“Are things better between you two?”
Sandy sighed, “It’s about the same. I don’task for too much because I know he’s not ready to give it to me.Although, the little girl down in accounting is working my lastnerves, her hints that they are messing around are not very subtle.I try not to worry about what I can’t control. When we are togetherit’s just us. I enjoy the time that we are together and that’sthat.”
“Well, Sandy, you deserve a fairy-tale too. Ihope you find it. Please think about that. So, I’ll talk to youlater then?”
“Of course, I’ll call you later.” Theydisconnected and now it was really time for Vicky to take a showerand go find Jason.
Chapter 4
In just a few words, Vicky left a lot forSandy to think about after they hung up. She knew Vicky meant wellbut after their conversation it left her feeling discontented. Atthe end of the day Sandy wanted what Vicky and Jason had. It wasn’tjealousy though, no, she was genuinely happy for Vicky and Jason.She didn’t know him very well but she knew Vicky was in love withhim and he seemed to be in love with her. Sandy hated that Vickywas right, she did deserve more and she wanted more. She shouldn’thave even bothered to answer Joshua’s text message seeing as hestood her up last night.
They had been seeing each other for almosttwo years and what direction this ‘thing’ she had with him wasgoing or if it were going anywhere at all was anybody’s guess.Sandy was all too aware that she wasn’t getting any younger. Shewanted more than he was willing to give. But, if she asked for moreshe knew she’d lose him completely. She deserved better but shewasn’t prepared to give him up just yet. However, something wasgoing to come to a head soon.
In the past, she’d been able to deal with thefact they weren’t exclusive but lately, he’d become more and moredisrespectful and she wasn’t putting up with that. She’d waited forhours at the restaurant for him to show. He could have at leastcalled or text to let her know something came up. He just didn’tshow. Well, he’d better have a pretty good explanation. Short of ahospital stay won’t be good enough.
Joshua Jones stood outside Sandy’sdoor. He was a bastard and he knew it. Last night was crazy. He’dmeant to meet up with Sandy but he’d been hanging out with the guysat the bar and by the time he checked his watch it was alreadyafter 10:30p. They were supposed to meet up at Nick’s restaurant on53rd at 7:00pm. He knew shewas long gone by then and probably pissed. He wasn’t in the mood todeal with an angry red-head. So, he called up Alicia fromaccounting. That’s what he needed a woman who didn’t ask too manyquestions and just was ready for whatever whenever.
He didn’t know why he was even still seeingSandy. It could be because she was beautiful, smart, sexy as hell,and would call him on his bullshit. Who was he kidding…she was allof that but it was the sex. The sex between them was explosive. Heneeded to get a grip though and end it. They had been seeing eachother for almost 2 years. That’s the longest he’d ever datedanyone. Typically, six months was his limit. Women started to gettoo clingy after that and he was nowhere near ready to settle down.However, he could tell that she was starting to get antsy. He knewthe expiration date on this affair had passed but wasn’t quiteready to give her up just yet.
Joshua rang the doorbell. She kept himwaiting for a few minutes. Okay, so she was still pissed about lastnight and was going to let him stew for a few minutes. He guessedhe deserved that. He knew Sandy was home because he’d just text her20 minutes before and her car was in the driveway. Joshua rang thebell again. He’d heard her footsteps as she walked up to the door,then he heard her unlocked it before slowly opening it. However,Sandy didn’t move to allow him to come inside.
“Hey babe. Sorry about last night. I gotcaught up.” He looked at her with this cocky grin then started tobend down to kiss her.
Sandra stood there at the door with her armsfolded across her chest. Her blue eyes were blazing with anger. Shereached out and slapped Joshua across his face. She hissed at him“You had me sitting at that restaurant waiting for you and lookinglike a fool! I’m many things Joshua Jones but a fool is not one ofthem.”
Joshua snatched her to him lightening fast.Sandra wasn’t prepared for that. He bent down and kissed herbrutally hard. She initially struggled against him. But, Joshuawouldn’t let up. He continued to kiss her silly until she succumbedto being in his arms. She slightly opened her mouth for him andthat was all the invitation he needed to push his tongue into hermouth. He kissed her until she couldn’t remember her own name. Noone had ever made Sandy feel like this and being with Joshua wasreally the only place she wanted to be. Sandy stopped strugglingand wrapped her arms around his neck. Joshua knew he’d won thisround as he picked her up, closed the door, and carried herstraight to the bedroom.
