10 - Change of plans

Dax

Ace was having the time of his life. We were in a place at the park where dogs could run freely, and he used this opportunity as best as he could. And, of course, he was extremely happy that Lily was with us... I mean with him because he acted like I wasn't even in the picture. He was playing only with her, and not once did he look at me, which was kind of sad. I mean, I was the one who was taking care of him, feeding him, buying him all kinds of toys, and he dumped me at the first sight of a girl. I understand him, I really do, but c'mon, he's supposed to be my partner.

"What are you thinking about so much?" Lily asked me after she threw a stick, and Ace ran after it.

"Umm, I'm just... thinking how Ace dumped me."

"What are you talking about?" She was looking at me with humor in her eyes.

"Well, from the moment he saw you, he is always around you, and it's like I don't even exist anymore."

"No, he's not! I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Lily, did you see him giving me the stick since we are in the park?" She stopped for a while, trying to think of a moment, but she couldn't... I knew that. "See, he has eyes only for you."

"Are you jealous?"

"That he's the one playing with you and not me?" I asked her before I had the time to proceed what I was saying. I hopped she didn't hear what exactly I said.

"What? No!" Oops, I guess I wasn't that lucky. "That he is playing with me, and not with you..."

"I don't know, honestly. But I think I can live with it." We sat at a bench and let Ace sniff around.

"And what was that playing thing that you talked about?" She was looking at me curious, maybe a little suspicious...I'm not sure what I'm supposed to say. Think of a lie? Or tell the truth? That I wanted to play with her and wasn't talking about Monopoly. That I'd like to explore her body from the top of her amazing redhaired head, down to her toes. That I'd like to see what works for her, what makes her moan, what makes her wet, what makes her scream in pleasure, what..."Dax, are you here?" Fuck! I guess I got myself too deep in my fantasies. And there was quite an obvious sign that I was sporting down in my shorts.

"Sorry, were you saying something?" My hard cock was at a strange angle and I tried my best to find him a better position in my pants, without being too obvious what I was doing. Damn, if just little thinking about her was making me that hard, what on Earth was I gonna do if I touched her? I felt like a hormonal teenager, not able to control my own body around a pretty girl.

"Dax, you sure you are alright. You act a little strange. Is something wrong?" Yup, a lot of things are wrong – that we are at a public place, that it is a bright day, that you have your clothes on, that you are away from me and not in my arms, straddling me, that you are not bouncing on my hard... "Are you getting sick? You look a little pale." Of course, I'll be pale. All my blood was going South with every vibrant thought of her in my arms. What I can do with her, to her. What she'll let me..." Dax?" I felt her hand on my forehead and I snapped out of my daydreaming of her naked body on top of mine.

"Umm, what?" Please don't look down my shorts, don't look down, or you'll know exactly why I was acting like that.

"Are you getting sick? You spaced out for I while." She looked really worried about me and I felt like an idiot. For sure I can't tell her that I was just having naughty thoughts about her. Nope, too soon.

"Umm, no. Sorry about that, I just remembered a thing that I need to do when I'm back on shift, that's all."

"You were thinking about your job right now?" Yeah, I did not believe the lie either, but it was the best I could thought of in this short time.
