Sex Part 3

I had to get out of there. I gently pried my arm away from Maria's grasp and took my first step towards freedom. "I can't talk right now. I gotta go. I told you I got a 1:30. It's with Jacobs and you know how he gets if you're late."

She moved towards me and pleaded, "Sex, please wait. I got somebody I want you to meet."

I walked away as fast as I could and, when I was at a safe distance away, I looked back and said, "I'm sorry, maybe later."

She quickly ran past me and stopped a couple of steps in front of my path. When my forward momentum brought me into her orbit, she reached out and grabbed my hand and pulled me in the opposite direction and said, "Come on, it'll only take a minute. Believe me it'll be worth it."

I reluctantly walked hand in hand with her towards the swing sets. She motioned for the little boy in the middle swing to come to her. He jumped from the swing and scurried our way through the sand like a soldier on a mission. I didn't realize that she was still holding my hand until she released it to embrace the boy.

She kneeled down to his level, looked him in the eyes and gently said, "Sweetheart, I want you to meet Mr. Christopher Phineas Felton the sixth."
