Enthor sat in the corner of the tavern watching everyone while he sipped his drink. He was waiting for Tarnin, it had been a week since he had come home, he had mostly spent that time with Esme in bed. He didn't mind that Tarnin was late, as Enthor loved people watching. "we are all so weird." He said to himself.
Elou the barmaid come over to Enthor noticing he had placed his tankard on the table and hadn't touched it for a while.
"Can I get you another one?" She asked him battering her eyelashes at him. He looked up at Elou's warm smile, despite the ten year age gap between them they got on very well. He studied her face, he full plump lips, her blonde hair hanging down one side of her head, her smile lighting her blue eyes up, a genuine smile. She was also very pretty, something that he knew worked in her favour with tips.
" I'll have another fruit juice please." He smiled back at her. "And surprise me."
"I hate it when you say that." She teased, pretending to be pissed off. "Tarnin late?" She asked.
"When isn't he?" Enthor said shrugging his shoulders.
"Where you away?" Elou asked while taking his tankard.
"Why? Did you miss me?" Said Enthor throwing a smile at her.
"And why would I miss you?" She said trying to suppress a smile.
"Oh I don't know." He said with a cheeky grin. "Good looking, intelligent, charming?" His eyes mischievous.
"I missed your coin." She said walking away. As she walked away Enthors eyes were drawn to Elou's bum, not massive but toned and round. Her loose dress stretched tight over her rear. Enthor loves Esme with every fibre of his being but he was also a man. He was so distracted by Elou's bum he hadn't noticed Tarnin walk into the tavern. "Enthor you son of a bitch!" He boomed. "Your nuts all drained." Causing people in the tavern to look at him. Enthor chuckled to himself and gestured to the empty seat in front of him. Elou returned with Enthors drink and one for Tarnin as he always ordered the same thing. Enthor took a sip of his drink.
"Oh why did you bring me this one?" He asked feigning disgust.
"Should have told me what you wanted then!" Elou snapped back ruffling his hair and then pushing his head away. As she went to leave he gently grabbed her hand, her breath caught at his touch. Enthor pressed a two gold coins into her hand. "For the drinks and could you bring us a meat platter please." She looked at the coin and went to give him one back. Enthor shook his head. "Keep it." As she walked away he couldn't help but side glance at her bum again.
"Lovely arse right?" Tarnin said low enough so only Enthor would hear. Enthor ignored the remark.
"Been getting into much trouble while I've not had my eye on you?" Enthor asked deflecting Tarnins question.
"Me?" He said mockingly. "I never get into trouble, I'm a responsible respectable man."
Enthor laughed. "Hmm sure. Where do you think our next station will be?" He asked tucking into cold slices of meat.
"I reckon we will be based in the city doing menial assessments." Tarnin said with distain.
"You are probably right." This meant they would be stationed inside the city at one of the barracks, but at least it would be close to his home.
Tarnin left just before Elou was finishing her shift. Enthor waited saying he would walk her home, the town was safe but Elou accepted his offer. "Do you think you'll be station far away again?" She asked as they walked down the warm streets baked from the days sun.
"No, well I hope not anyway." He said looking behind him at the noise he heard. "Hopefully I'll be stationed in the city. A little more boring but closer to home."
"And safer I bet." Elou said.
"Oh I'm sure Tarnin would find us some trouble." Enthor chuckled. "So are you seeing anyone?" He asked casually.
"There is one man like, but yes I'm seeing someone." Jealousy flashed through Enthor and had felt ashamed he felt that, Elou deserved to be with someone.
"Oh good, as long as you are happy." He smiled at her. They stopped outside her house.
"I would offer you to come in..." She said looking into his eyes, a sparkle in them.
"And as much as I'm sure I'd enjoy that, I have to get home." He gave her a one arm hug and started to walk home. He opened the door to his home and scanned the room for Esme. "I'm back here honey." She said as if able to read his mind. He walked into their bedroom where her voice come from. Esme was laying naked on their bed, her sex glistening with her wetness "Come breed me." She cooed.
