BEAUTY AND THE...

"First I'm your blowjob chaperone and now you want me to do what?"

"First I'm your blowjob chaperone and now you want me to do what?"

"Be our alibi." Pushing Blue down onto the sofa in my sitting room, I give him a chocolate chip cookie carefully tucked in a napkin and then sit down on the edge of the armchair next to Halen.

Blue slowly rounds his head in a confused circle, "Your alibi. For..."

"Our date tonight. Our first date." My belly flips and I squeeze and wring my fingers happily, looking down at Halen. He tucks my waist into his bicep and gives me an affirming kiss on the arm. His eyes glow today. He's as excited as me, and it makes my heart feel like it'll jump out of my chest to know he cares so much.

"Oh." Blue blink rapidly, "Okay? That's not a big deal. I can do that. Why are you bribing me - with the desserts I made by the way - if you just want me to lie for you? I've done it before. Just tell me when you're going and how long you'll be gone, I'll think of something to say."

"Well," My voice leans into a guilty squeak, "It's not exactly the same as last time. It's um, it's a little bit more than a lie. You see, when we made these plans, we were under the impression that we could just sneak out together and pretend to be somewhere else. But Fox has sort of been onto us lately, and he's really not happy-"

"Sneaking out is not an option," Halen comes together with a much better explanation than me, "Leaving together is not an option. Coming back together is not an option. A simple excuse..."

"Not an option." I finish, chewing my lip, "We need real, feasible proof that I'm going to be on a Tinder date with a 'Ian' from Buffalo, and Halen will be out with you."

"I'm confused. Are you going on a date or am I going on a date?" Blue's eyebrows knit together, and he starts doing calculations with his hands and the air to dissect what I just said.

"You're going on a date... alone. You leave with Halen five minutes before me, drop him off at the bottom of Howl Hill, and then have a night out on the town for," The more I think about it, the crazier of an idea it seems. I shrug, trying not to wince, "Two or three hours?"

"Four." Halen mumbles, earning my wide eye. That wasn't what we discussed. Not to say anyway. He slightly smirks and traces down my back, "Closer to five if she can handle what I have in store."

Heat floods my face and I look away.

"Okay, first of all, keep your romantics to yourselves, it depresses me. Second, I-I-" Blue stumbles with a scrunched face, tossing a hand up, "Are you kidding me? You want me to sit somewhere alone for five hours while you two go to a fancy dinner and have sex at what, a motel? No!"
