Bad Influence

18.

"Stop Ash," Karsen pushed my hand from where my middle finger was outlining the crease of her ass through her pretty white maxi dress. Uncle Rino opened the door snatching Karsen into his arms. He kissed the top of her head like a father that had just found his missing daughter.

"My sweet girl, I missed you," he smiled down at her.

She giggled, "Rino I was just here a week ago."

"A week too long!" he draped his arm over my shoulder, "My boy." He scuffled my hair.

"Hey unc, where's my auntie?" I looked around the foyer.

"Right here my baby boy," she wrapped her arms around my neck, hugging me tight. I bent to kiss her cheek after she let go.

She moved to Karsen and hugged her as well. We all entered the dining room and sat waiting for the food to be served. "I'm do glad to see the two of you back by each other's sides again," Aunt Marce put a hand over her heart.

"Thank you Marcella," Karsen smiled.

"So I'm guessing the sex life is back up and at it."

"Marcella," Uncle Rino groaned.

Karsen giggled and I answered, "Not quite."

Aunt Marce looked distraught, " Why in the world not? Sex is a beautiful thing to share with the one you love."

"Marcella leave them be," he looked at her pleadingly.

"We're trying to focus more on other important factors of our relationship," I answered once again. I leaned and kissed Karsen's cheek.

The food was served and we all went silent for a moment, enjoying the amazing baked chicken.

"Oh unc, I wanted to really thank you for getting me out so early. I don't know how you did it," I took another forkful of chicken. I needed to tell him tonight that I couldn't let that happen again. I had to quit the business for the better sake of my new family. Uncle Rino looked at me confused. "What?" I questioned.

"Trust me I was working very hard to but I'm not the one that got you out son." I looked around the table and both ladies wouldn't catch eye contact with me.

Now I was very confused. "Then who did?"

Karsen spoke up, "Stephen."

"Why wou-who- You went to my dad?" Why the fuck would she go to my fucking dad? What did she have to do so that he would get me out? I clenched my jaw continuously trying to calm down.

"Ash, " her hand went to my shoulder but I got up before she could.

"Well he better not fucking think my girlfriend owes him shit."

"Son."

I scowled down at her, "What'd he make you do to get me out?" She looked at me shocked.

"Ash what the hell? I didn't have to do anything. Who do you think I am?"

"Ash you need to calm down," Uncle Rino looked at me sternly. Karsen looked down at her food. I sat down, mentally cursing myself. I had just got her back and now I probably just lost her.

"Excuse me for a moment please," Karsen stood up leaving the dining room. I tagged along after her.

"Karsen baby, " I turned down a hallway and she jumped out and kissed me.

"I'm not mad," her legs were around my waist and arms around my neck.

I supported her butt with my arms, "I didn't mean to start snapping."
