FNL Fic. Tim muses on what attracted him to his girlfriends.
Tyra
Why? The legs. Duh. And her rack.
And she was the anti-cheerleader, though I got nothing against cheerleaders (or any girl, for that matter), at least after sunset. Loved to party. Real sarcastic, snarky, or straight up. We were in the same homeroom freshman year and attracted one another, just like two magnets... and then repelled each other like magnets.
And when things were good, they were real good. But with the Colette gals, it's good maybe 5% of the time. And the rest, you're just duckin' flying objects or insults, and tryin' to fix things. After awhile, that ain't fun, it's work.
But man, she's an animal in bed. Sometimes too much to handle.
Jackie
Why? The sexy librarian thing (okay, bank officer), and the feeling of belonging to a family.
When you first see Jackie, she's small, kinda mousy, low self esteem. Married young, ended badly, but she has Bo, who's a hoot. Spend a little time with her and you notice that she's pretty foxy. Much as she loves Bo, sometimes I think she wouldn't mind not having a kid around all the time, but that's her situation.
When she came to my party to complain about the noise, I didn't think much of her one way or another. But our proximity helped. And gettin' to know her through Bo, I probly saw her best side, cause that kid adores his momma. And they way she'd look at me seductively through her hair (hell, I know that trick firsthand), and her eyes… they were telling me things she wasn't saying.
And being older, and pretty limber, she's probly the one chick who's taught me things in bed. Which was awesome. But it was also pretty dumb of me to get involved with someone twice my age.
Lyla
Why? Where do I start…
A long shared history, and Jay's accident. Me and Garrity both needing comfort and finding it in one another in a brutal situation. And she's the better person that I can only hope of becoming.
Of course, she's cute. Perfect, in many ways. Her deep brown eyes, her silky hair, her adorable figure. And lord, that look she gives me when she's horny...
Smart, kind, patient (most of the time). Maybe most importantly, she gets me. She sees potential in me and is one of the few (Jay, Coach, and Mrs T, too) to really help me. She takes care of me. And you know what? People look at me differently when I'm with Garrity.
And with her, the sex is incredible, but it's on another, spiritual level because it's love and not just lust. Before we started goin' steady, I never knew real love and how good it could be. And that's a lotta time wasted chasin' tail.
Who knows, we could wind up getting' hitched. Or things might peter out and we'll move on. But for the moment, we're for real.
And the others? Too many to mention, none of much consequence. And the Stratton sisters… well, it was more of a scientific experiment than anything else, fueled by shots. I do like to experiment now and then. Hmm… you know I kinda miss that…
