Fireflies at Midnight

SEVEN 7

Evelyn decided today was the day to dress up. She wanted both of their attention. It wouldn't be too hard seeing as Kathy wouldn't be there, but why not dress up?

She decided on some light wash rip jeans, the thickness of her thighs bulging out the cuts just a bit. The shirt she wore was almost a simple, thin black t-shirt. However, the sides were cut up to her waist. You could see her panty line, pink lace, and her hips a small bit.

Her hair was pulled up into a fan bun, high on her head and pushed out. It was her favorite hairstyle for a hot day. She didn't do much in terms of makeup; lip balm, mascara, eyeliner and she filled her eyebrows in. Evelyn never did a full face of makeup, it was unnecessary in her book.

Faintly through the door of the guest room, she can hear Aaron and Eric going on about hunting. It was something she knew Aaron and his father used to do, a lot, but hadn't been able to lately. Who knows if they ever will now.

Sadness sweeps over her face momentarily, she didn't want the bond they had to separate. Especially because of her. As long as nothing came out, they would be okay. And she would too. Evelyn looks at herself in the mirror.

Get my cake, and eat it too, she thinks with a small, smug smile written on her face. It was selfish, she knew that, but every second of it was enjoyed. Evelyn ate it up like candy, relishing in the fact that they're both around her finger. Just in different ways.

She takes a deep breath and heads down the hallway to the boys. She's quiet when she enters, arms crossed and leaned against the wall. They're still talking, not realizing she's come in. Aaron is the first one to notice and he looks over at her with a big grin.

"You look good babe." He says, grabbing her by the wrist and pulling her to him. He sniffs her shirt, the perfume she sprayed still lingering.

"Thank you my love." She gives him a light squeeze on the shoulder and then focuses down on Eric.

He's staring and Evelyn watches his jaw clench and unclench more than a handful of times. She knew he'd been staring since she entered the room, watching mindfully. That's what she wanted; both of them to see her.

His eyes lock onto hers momentarily, a flash of something similar to fuck you for this flashes and she offers a small smile. It wasn't anything other than a polite smile to the genuine eye. However, to Eric, he knew that was a tease. A way of letting him in on the fact that she intended this.

Evelyn wanted him worked up. She wanted to see how much he could resist, how far he would pull since Aaron was around. Eric diverts his eyes, choosing to look at the floor below. He had to regain himself.

"So, I guess since everyone is ready, we can head down to Lou's?" Aaron asked, handing Eric his keys.

They head to the truck, Evelyn checking the time. It was only 1 o'clock now which means plenty of time to eat and go into the mountains.

The idea of riding through the mountains was exciting to her. Her Uncle used to take her as a kid, but she'd never been able to drive. Even though she wished she would have learned eventually, there never was enough time to it seemed.

Lou's was a very tiny restaurant. Barely big enough to hold 50 people, including the workers. It was beautiful; chandeliers above the tables, leather booth seats in the corner, a bar in the middle of the restaurant. There were deer heads along the walls which really didn't make sense with the rest of the decor. But it was in the south.

Eric opens the door for Aaron first, Evelyn following close behind. When he steps in behind her, he slightly runs his fingers along her back. The little gasp she lets out puts a smile on his face. If she wanted to play, they would play.
