Read Sean for Free Online Page B

opening up to me, but physically letting go as well. I had a feeling I could really fall for her. I had to be careful, though, I knew she was struggling with some issues, and as much as I wanted to help her, I knew where my place was if I wanted us to have a chance. I wanted to be her boyfriend, not her therapist.
    When I walked back into my room, Brynn was sitting up, but still in bed. She looked at me and smiled.
    “Sean,” she started, but hesitated.
    I sat be side her. “What is it?”
    She looked into my eyes. “Nothing,” she said and shook her head.
    “ C’mon, tell me.”
    “Yesterday was amazing. The best date I’ve ever had.” She seemed sad.
    “Have you been on a lot of dates?” I asked. She shook her head no. “If ours was amazing, why the long face?”
    “It’s over .” She looked toward the window.
    “Just until later. Why don’t you hang out here while I go to work? I’d love to come home to you here.” The thought of it excited me.
    “No, I have an appointment today and some other errands, but I appreciate the offer.”
    “Are you taking a cab to your appointment and errands?” She nodded, still looking toward the window. “Why don’t you take my car?”
    She whipped her head back to look at me and started laughing hysterically. She fell back on the bed and rolled to her side, laughing.
    “What?” I didn’t get it, but her laugh was making me laugh.
    “No, but thanks.” She was gaining control.
    “Why was that so funny?”
    “Sorry,” she said, “I don’t know how to drive, and even if I did, I can’t believe you’d let me use your car.”
    “It’s just a car,” I told her. “You’ve never learned to drive?”
    “No.”
    “Would you like to?”
    She shrugged. “I don’t know.”
    “Well, I’ll teach you if you do .”
    She hugged me and the blanket she’d had covering her chest fell. Her breasts were against my chest and I wanted a replay of last night. I went to kiss them, but she caught my chin with her hand.
    “I’ll keep that in mind,” she s aid and kissed me. “Like I said, I’m not a morning person.” Then she hopped out of my bed and walked her sexy ass into the bathroom. Mmm.
    “Will you have dinner with me tonight?” I hollered to her as I dressed.
    “Of course.” She headed to collect her clothes from the guest bath. I followed her as I buttoned and zipped.
    “Watching you walk around naked is making me want to be late for work,” I told her.
    “Stop it.” She turned and smiled, but kept walking. I swear I considered calling in sick.
    I caught up to her, pushed her hair off the back of her neck , and went right for her weak spot. “You’d be worth the punishment,” I whispered on her skin.
    “You’re playing dirty,” she said.
    “Yes, but I thought you liked —” My cell phone interrupted me. I wasn’t going to answer, but Brynn took the opportunity to escape the seduction.
    “Hello?” I answered.
    “Hey man, it’s Corey.” He was a good friend of mine from school. “I’m having a big bash on the Fourth. Lots of food, booze, women and fireworks.”
    “Sounds fun,” I said. “Can I bring someone?”
    “Holy shit! You mean, like a girl?” He laughed.
    “You’re a dick,” I said.
    “Of course, bring as many as you want. See ya then!” He hung up.
    Corey was a good guy. He graduated last year and joined his dad’s practice as a plastic surgeon. Sometimes he drank too much and turned into a loud mouth asshole with a chip on his shoulder, but when he was sober he was a lot of fun. He’d tried to fix me up with a couple of his ex-girlfriend’s friends, but I always had an excuse not to go. I didn’t want the added pressure of someone else watching when I re-entered the dating scene.
    “What are you doing for the Fourth of July?” I asked Brynn through the closed bathroom door.
    “Uh, I’m not sure yet.” She sounded as though she had some options she was considering.
    “ I’d like to take you to a party at a
