Dad's best friend secret baby

Chapter 26

Evie

"I'm ovulating and desperately need a good dick."
Today was my birthday, and after waking me at midnight with her call to wish me a happy birthday, we were here. Where she was ranting about her important issues, as she called them.

"Emma—"

"No, just listen to me before you think I'm a crazed sex addict."

"But you are."

She sighed. "My man's traveled, and though we've been sexting, it's not enough, argh. How hard is it for me to get some good D?"

I shook my head, dragging a tired palm down my face.

I rolled to another side of the bed when she suddenly asked.

"Wait. Are you still a virgin?"

Thank God my reflexes were quick enough to cover my choking.

"W-what?"

A burst of heat surged through me as I recalled the moments with Ethan. His touch, his kisses, his hands trailing the slope of my thighs.

I didn't know I was taking the time to respond when she made a tap sound. "Hellooo."

"Voice, Emma," I hissed, bringing the phone away from my ear.

She scoffed. "Don't make this about me. Why won't you answer my question?"

"I don't know. Maybe because it's personal?" I mimicked her scoff.

"Hold up, girl. Since when has that become personal?"

Oops.

"Emma, did you call to wish me a happy birthday or to question me?"

"What's a happy birthday without a bit of catching up?" She yawned.

"So how is—" I started, but she interrupted.

"You know I've seen the news, right?"

I held my breath.

"Yeah, rumors. It's funny ho—"

"You know, you can talk to me..." Her voice was concerned.

Emma wouldn't judge me, so why didn't I want to tell her? To tell the truth?

Probably because I fucked my boss, and now I'm back to addressing him formally didn't sound so appealing. Hell, I fucked my father's best friend sounded worse.

I know, Emma." I gave a tight-lipped smile though she couldn't see me. "It's nothing really."

"I'll respect your decision, Evie. But I want you to know that you can always talk to me."

There were very few times Emma spoke with sense. This was one of them.

I breathed, leaning up against the headboard. "Right."
There was a bit of shuffle before she huffed lightly.

"We should meet up one of these days. You're in New York, and we haven't seen each other once."

"I'm working on it, trust me."

That wasn't a lie. I was waiting for when Ethan would trust me enough to take Sophie with me on this friendship date.

"I'm still horny. Denis is out of town."

I rolled my eyes. "Girl, get a dildo or something."

She ignored me.

"...You know his name is even similar to penis. Denis penis."

Eww?

"Emma, I got to go. Nanny duties. See ya." I rushed out before ending the call.

The plush cotton of the pillow felt soft on my face as I muffled my slight frustration in it.
