Its Complicated

Douziéme Partie

*2 Hours Later*

I told Joe that I have to work from noon to close today, so I had to leave a little early right now. I took off his shirt, and put on my work uniform.

I grabbed my wristlet, keys, and my bag, and kissed my beau, signaling "see you in an hour there." I went to my car, and drove to work.

Turned on the radio, and first song plays on 97.5 WONE, which is Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On." I smiled, because this was the song that Joe played when we had sex last night.

Okay, apparently, the radio station is playing 1970s and 80s sexy love songs, and the DJs are playing from Rod Stewart and Diana Ross to Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder. It's a good thing that it's a classic rock station because I don't want to hear to the crappy, Autotuned, X-rated sex songs from those crappy, fake, new singers.

After "Let's Get It On" ended, the radio station played Rod Stewart's "Tonight's the Night." I love this song so much. I feel like being back at Joe's place and making love to him again today.

*18 Minutes Later*

I arrived at the restaurant, and parked in a random spot. It's more than likely that Joe will take the spot beside my car when he comes to work.

It kind of stinks that I didn't tell anyone at the restaurant about Joe and I dating, because I don't want to receive hate from the servers and managers that dating an older man is a bit extreme for me. For a young girl dating an older man, there's a word for that, and it's called a gerbil. And a gerbil is the exact opposite to a cougar, where an older woman dates younger men.

Usually, when a younger woman dates an older man, it's either on a dare or she falls for him and his money. But, that's not what happened with me and Joe. I'm dating him because of his personality and for who he is, which are the two main reasons why I date guys in the first place.

I'm not one of those stuck-up girls who have high standards for guys. I used to back in high school, but I've been out of high school for three years, so I stepped away from that phase permanently. Also, I get along with talking to older guys better than guys my age.

And, for Pete sakes, I'm not a city girl. I lived out in the country my whole life. If I live with Joe in Millersburg, I might as well adjust to the life there.

Living 36 minutes away from Joe guts me because it seems distant to me.

As I checked the clock in my car (11:36 AM), it's almost time for me to go into work.

*Joe's POV*
Knowing that my princess made it safe and sound to the restaurant, I checked the time on my clock, I should get ready for work today. I have been thinking about this for a while, and to ask Morgan, but I should wait a month or two.

Morgan and I live 23 miles apart, in two different counties. My baby lived the country life her entire life, but she might as well adjust to Millersburg, because I'm asking her to move in and live with me.

Also, before we do that, I have to meet her parents first, which I'll be terrified because Morgan's parents are seven and eight years older than me, and they would think that their oldest daughter is dating someone who is old enough to be her uncle or second dad. Yes, a 21-year-old girl like Morgan is dating me, a 40-year-old. Nineteen years apart, that's extreme.

I might as well wait a month or two before I ask Morgan to live with me, because meeting her parents is a first. That's the best way to start for now.

*Morgan's POV*
I wasn't happy being single. I became depressed, lonely, and left out. I was single for over two years, but I couldn't handle being in a serious relationship because I was either a player or I was friendzoned.

Now, I'm on Cloud Nine because of me being with Joe now. My last relationship was really bad, and it ended pretty messy. I hated my ex with a burning passion after I learned that he "dated" my best friend, and to us, my ex is a two-timing, backstabbing, scumbag bastard.

Leaving my ex to being single for two years to now being back off the market again after a couple years, it's very joyous for me. Joe makes me happy, and I make him happy.

Also, I'm pretty sure that Maddie was told by Joe that's he's dating me, because yesterday, Maddie was happy for us, even though she wasn't at first. I felt that she was going to kill me because I took "her man." I understand that Maddie has been a "work girlfriend" to Joe, but she has to understand that there's a difference between the "work girlfriend" and the "real girlfriend" when I'm there at the restaurant.

So, I walked into work and clocked in. I'm on it like Blue Bonnet as I sprung into action, working in the round room. I looked in the server station to find Joe's name on the list to see which section he's in today. Oh, yes, he's in Section 10 in the round room. We'll try our best not to kiss or pack on the PDA while at work. We'll do that when we're in the break room.

*30 Minutes Later*
I worked on cleaning some tables, and I decided to wrap silverware, just to take a breather. I see Joe in the server station, joking around with Christina, Lisa, Marilyn, and his sister Sharon.

I went on with my day, blushing at my mind thinking of Joe. Rosanna and Carolyn notices me blushing like crazy. They smiled because they are the only two girls who I told about Joe and I being official.

My mind starts playing Toy-Box's "Teddybear" because I am one to Joe when we had sex last night. I have my break at 3:30, for which I won't be eating, but I'll be taking Joe with me at that time.

I fought my own fight a month early, because my mental health has been a problem for me since I was single, until yesterday.
