Daphne woke up the next morning to the feeling of being watched. She opened her eyes and found a boy about Misty’s age staring back at her. She gasped and sat up, covering herself with the blanket.

“Um, hi,” she smiled nervously.

“Why are you sleeping in my dad’s bed?” he asked.

“Um, well…Kyle!” she called.

She heard him swear before he appeared in the doorway. She glared at him when he laughed at the scene in front of him.

“Um, Lucas I told you not to come in here,” he chided, composing himself.

“Why is she sleeping in your bed?” Lucas asked.

“We had a sleepover, now go eat your breakfast,” Kyle suggested as he ushered Lucas out of the room.

“I’m sorry; my ex dropped him off early. Breakfast is ready,” he smiled as he pecked her lips.

Daphne shook her head as he walked out and shut the door behind him. She found her clothes at the foot of the bed and pulled them on. After using the bathroom and rinsing her mouth out with mouthwash, she walked into the kitchen and saw Kyle serving breakfast. She smirked to herself as she saw the scratch marks going down his back.

“What are you smirking about?” he laughed once he noticed her.

“Your back,” she smirked.

“What happened to your back?” Lucas asked as he stuffed his face with egg.

“He was attacked last night,” she laughed as she sat at the table.

“By what?” he asked.

“Oh just some crazy little thing,” Kyle smirked as he placed a plate of food in front of her.

“You can cook?” she asked.

“You sound surprised,” he laughed.

“You don’t seem like the kind of guy that takes the time to cook,” she shrugged as she cut into her eggs.

“What kind of guy do I seem like?”

“All work and no play.”

“Well I played last night,” he smirked.

“Well I stand corrected then,” she laughed.

“You know Daphne is Misty’s mom,” Kyle told Lucas.

“You are?” Lucas smiled.

“I sure am. She talks about you all the time,” she smiled.

“She’s my girlfriend,” he grinned.

“Well I’m glad I met you then. Are you going to marry her?” she teased.

“Misty says I don’t have enough money!” he pouted.

“She is so your child,” Kyle laughed.

“Bite me,” Daphne laughed.

After they finished breakfast, Daphne collected her things as Kyle and Lucas loaded the dishwasher.

“I should get going. Misty is with my brother,” she told them.

“I’ll walk you to the door. Say bye, bud,” Kyle told Lucas.

“Bye Daphne,” Lucas grinned.

“Bye sweetie,” she smiled.

“I had a great time last night,” Kyle told her as he walked her to the door.

“I did too. It was nice running into you,” she smiled.

“So I was thinking we could get the kids together one day after school.”

“That sounds fun. I’ll have to check my work schedule.”

“So do you think I could take you again?” he asked.

“I really don’t want anything serious right now,” she admitted.

“Who said anything about getting serious? We’ll just keep things simple,” he shrugged.

“What does simple mean?”

“Well, we get the kids together and we occasionally go out platonically. Hell, I’ll even let you pay for yourself,” he smirked.

“Oh you’re so sweet,” she laughed.

“I try. And maybe if you’re lucky I’ll let you have sex with me again,” he teased.

“We’ll see about that,” she laughed.

“So, we’re good?” he asked.

“We’re good,” she confirmed.

“Great, I’ll call you,” he smiled as he pecked her lips.

“I’m looking forward to it,” she smirked as she walked out.

“That was easier than I thought,” she mumbled to herself as she walked down the steps.

As she started up the car, she turned her phone on and balanced it between her head and shoulder as she drove.

J- Hello?

D- Hey, I’m on my way to get Misty.

J- Well its warm out today and she wanted to get in the pool. So you’re staying here and telling me about last night!

D- Fine! I’ll be there in a little bit.

J- I’ll be waiting!

Daphne hung up and flipped on the radio. She began to sing along to [i]Crazy Kids[/i] as she drove through town. She arrived at Matt’s about twenty minutes later. After she parked, she walked right inside and to the back patio.

“Hi mommy!” Misty grinned from the pool.

“Hi baby!” she smiled.

Her smile slowly fell when she realized who was in the pool with her.

“What the hell is he doing here?” she hissed as she sat at the edge of Jade’s lounge chair.

“When I came home last night, he heard me tell Matt that you went home with Kyle. He gave some bullshit excuse about being drunk and not wanting to drive home. He crashed here just so he could hear about last night,” Jade smirked.

“So what’s this I hear about you going home with some douche from the bar?” Matt asked as he approached them with a glass of wine and beer in his hands.

“We went to high school together. And he’s not a douche,” she defended as she took the wine from him.

“You know he could’ve been some serial killer,” he added.

“Well he obviously wasn’t. His son is friends with Misty,” she told them.

“Aw, that’s cute! Now tell me what happened last night!” Jade demanded.

“I don’t need to hear this!” Matt announced as he got in the pool with Misty and Brian.

“Brian’s eavesdropping by the way,” Jade smirked.

“Oh well,” Daphne shrugged.

“Now get on with it! How was the sex?” Jade asked.

“Fucking awesome,” Daphne smirked.

“Was it as good as with Brian?” Jade whispered.

“God yes! It was so rough and passionate and…”

“Meaningless,” Jade finished.

“Exactly! I think that’s what made it so good! There were no strings attached!”

“That’s the best kind. That and angry sex,” Jade shrugged.

“His son found me in his bed this morning.”

“You probably scarred the kid for life! What did you tell him?”

“Kyle just told him we had a sleepover.”

“How’d it go with Kyle this morning? Was it awkward?”

“Not really. He kind of asked me out again but I told him I didn’t want anything serious. So he said we’ll just keep it simple.”

“What does simple mean?”

“Like getting the kids together and going out platonically.”

“So a friends with benefits thing?” Jade asked.

“I guess,” Daphne shrugged.

“What are you, 20? That stuff is for kids,” Jade laughed.

“Well its all I’m going for right now,” Daphne laughed.

“Mommy, come swim with me!” Misty called from the pool.

“But I don’t have a suit!”

“Go get one of mine from our room,” Jade told her.

“Alright. I’ll be back baby!” Daphne told Misty as she walked in the house.

She walked upstairs and into Matt and Jade’s room. As she was rummaging through Jade’s dresser, she heard the door close behind her. She looked in the mirror and saw Brian standing by the door.

“What are you doing here?” she asked as she continued looking for a bathing suit.

“I heard you talking to Jade about that Kyle guy,” he started.

“What’s it to you?” she asked as she turned to him.

“I’m just wondering what the hell you’re doing.”

“Kyle and I are just having some fun. It doesn’t concern you.”

“I know it doesn’t, but I’m just looking out for you and Misty.”

“There’s nothing to look out for! Kyle is a nice guy and this isn’t anything serious.”

“Lets be real Daph; everything is serious to you. This friends with benefits thing isn’t going to be enough for you,” he said matter-of-factly.

“Yes it will!” she defended.

“Don’t lie to me. You’re too emotional for this. You’ll want something more out of it. This won’t be just sex for you. There’s always emotions tied to it for you,” he shrugged.

Daphne glared at him as she clenched her fists.

“And you know its true,” he smirked.

In a fit of rage, Daphne approached him and slapped him. He held his cheek and looked at her, incredulously.

“Don’t tell me how I feel,” she hissed.

In the heat of the moment, she leaned up and pressed her lips to his. After his immediate shock, Brian wrapped his arms around her and held her tightly to him. Daphne tugged at his hair, earning a growl from him. He walked her forward until her butt hit the dresser. He lifted her up on it and stood between her legs.

“I love you,” he whispered as he pressed kisses along her neck and chest.

“Stop talking,” she gasped out as he bit into her flesh.

She felt his hands slide up her legs and tug at her panties. He pulled them down her legs and tossed them to the side. He pulled his shaft out of his trunks and pumped it a few times before sliding into her.

“God you feel so good,” he growled as thrusted in and out of her.

“Fuck me harder,” she breathed in his ear as she tightly wrapped her legs around his waist.

She cried out as he began slamming his hips into hers with every thrust. She clawed down his back as she felt her orgasm build up inside her.

“Fuck Daph,” he groaned as he dug his nails into her skin when she tightened.

Daphne came undone when his tip hit the spot inside of her.

“Fuck!” she cried out as her orgasm racked her body.

Brian growled loudly as he spilled his seed inside her. He continued slamming into her until they were both spent.

“Fuck,” he sighed as he pulled out of her after a few seconds.

Daphne adjusted her dress and hopped down from the dresser. She grabbed the bathing suit and made her way to the bathroom.

“Where are you going?” she heard him ask.

“I’m getting changed so I can go swimming,” she shrugged as she turned to him.

“Don’t you want to talk about what just happened?” he shrugged.

“There’s nothing to talk about, Bri. It was just sex,” she smirked.
