like you to meet the reprobates I call
friends. Over there is Travis. This is Lenny, and behind them are Wade and
Austin. Guys, I’d like you to meet Sara.”
    She shook each of their hands smiling at them. With
the introductions over she placed the steaks on the griddle and finished with
the salad.
    “What do you need me to do?” Andy asked. He walked
around the counter to where she stood. Andy bumped her hip with his moving her
along.
    His friends continued to watch their interaction. She
laughed even as her cheeks filled with embarrassment. “I think your friends are
fascinated by me.”
    Andy glanced up and glared at them. They all turned
around and started fiddling with the television.
    Sara laughed and dressed the salad.
     

Chapter Two
     
    Andy knew what his friends were looking at. Sara was a
beauty, and they’d all seen it for themselves. Her pale skin and red hair was a
striking combination that didn’t detract from her natural look. She didn’t need
makeup to highlight anything. Sara was curvy in all the right places with large
tits and thick, rounded hips. He loved any opportunity he got to touch her. The
first time he saw her, Andy had been struck dumb by her. Her smile consumed the
soul, and her eyes made him think of everything sinful and poetic.
    He turned away and picked up the tongs to flip the
steaks. Her body brushed against his side, and once again he was aware of their
close proximity. His desire for her continued to grow even as Sara laughed at
one of the jokes on the television. Wasn’t she as affected by him as he was by her?
    Forcing himself to concentrate, he finished turning
the steaks and then grabbed a couple of beers out of the fridge. He walked over
to the men and handed them each a beer. They all gave him a look that he
ignored. All of them would be asking why he hadn’t slept with her. He didn’t
want to spoil what they’d gotten together. Andy wanted her in his bed
twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. The biggest problem he faced was
the fact he liked having her out of his bed as well. He loved talking to her,
and their friendship was the main factor to why he kept a distance between
them.
    “I’m just letting the steak rest and then I can serve.
If I’d known there would be more of us I’d have made sure to get out something
else,” she said to the room of men.
    Andy moved back round the counter and opened his beer.
He offered her a drink of his beer. She turned her nose up and shook her head.
Sara didn’t drink. She hated alcohol. The only use she found for alcohol was to
either throw it in cooking or down the sink.
    “So, you cook for Andy on a regular basis?” Wade
asked.
    “No, we take it in turns to cook. He sometimes comes ‘round
to my place and makes a pretty mean pizza. You’re good with your hands.” She
bumped his hip and smiled at him.
    His pants tightened over his thickening cock. Talking
to her over the phone was certainly easier than having to deal with his raging
hormones in her company.
    Did she not know how her statement about his hands
could be read two ways?
    “You’ve got a key to his apartment?” This question
came from Travis.
    She nodded then began to slice the steaks. Andy folded
his arms over his chest and glared at each of his friends in turn.
    “You know what I find so shocking?” She stopped
slicing the steak. “In all the years I’ve known Andy he’s only ever mentioned you
in passing. I find that very strange.”
    She frowned turning toward him.
    “They keep a very tight schedule. We’ve not been close
for very long, Sara.” Guilt began to eat away at him. There was no way he could
come right out and say that he’d purposefully kept her to himself. He’d been
introduced to several of her friends and a couple of the dates she’d gone out
with. None of her friends stayed around her for very long.
    “Andy has always been a bit possessive of his friends.
We all only just know each other, right, guys?” Austin said,
