He dropped her off nearby her house and she leaned over and gave him a soft kiss "Thank you, this is the happiest I have felt in weeks".
He smiled back at her, "Anytime princess, you could give me your number, just in case you need another ride sometime" he passed her his phone which she took with a grin and punched in her number with a little smile, naming herself Preachers Daughter. He looked at it and smirked "What will you put my number in as?"
"You will have to check my phone the next time we meet I guess" she winked at him as she slipped out of the car. She walked inside to a gratefully empty house, and her phone buzzed moments later [Talk soon Princess]. She bounced up to her room with a stupid grin on her face.
The next day she woke to new message from Seth [Can't wait to see you in one of your dresses soon].
She grinned as soon as she saw it, before replying [I can wear one tonight for you but you will have to protect me from unwanted advances ;p].
[I can do that, but only from other people].
She grinned [Who said yours would be unwanted?].
[You like it when I touch you princess?].
She blushed reading his reply and bit her lip with a grin before typing out a quick flirty reply feeling oddly daring.
[Wish you were touching me now]. She grew a little nervous as it took a moment or two longer before she got her response. Had she gone too far? She sighed in relief when she saw his message come through.
[Damn you, I will think of nothing else all day now].
[Then my work here is done].
She grinned, pleased with herself and picked out a dress immediately, one of her favourites. She cleaned around the empty house, and didn't think too hard on where her daddy was. Later that afternoon, she slipped on her little sundress and admired herself in the mirror a moment as it clung to her curves in all the right places stopping just an inch or two below mid-thigh. She liked it because while it was modest enough to get past daddy, nobody was in any doubt about her figure. Not that it had met much success in church but she still liked it and she hoped Seth would like it too.
The sweet couple from her congregation picked her up as usual as she explained to them she was meeting a friend afterwards to explain away her dress. They nodded and smiled and soon they were pulled up on front of the soup kitchen. She immediately started unloading the groceries and food as usual and on her second run she could almost feel his eyes on her. She couldn't helped the grin that pulled across her face, that widened even further as he pulled her into a discrete nook beside the building. "Fuck, Kate you were not lying about that dress" Seth whispered huskily into her ear causing shivers to run down her spine. "You like it?" she asked innocently. He kissed her and pushed her flush against the wall, she could feel his hardness press into her and she sighed. "I think you can feel how much I like it" he growled into her ear "Stay after ok, I will drive you home". She smiled and nodded, genuinely pleased at the effect her dress had on him "I can do that, but I better get back before a search party is sent". She kissed him softly and walked out and found a tall man in a suit and glasses looking over at them as they parted ways. She shrugged to herself and went back to unloading and helping out.
At the end of the clean up, she said her goodbyes to the sweet couple before pulling out her phone and saw a message waiting for her from Seth [You done?]. [All done] she replied. "Good" he said walking up behind her wrapping his arms around her kissing her neck. "Are you stalking me Seth?" she asked grinning arching her neck allowing his lips further access. He laughed "No I'm protecting you from unwanted advances". She laughed and turned to him and smiled pressing a kiss to his lips. Again, she could see the tall guy wearing glasses staring over at them again "is that your brother?". Seth looked back "Yeah, that's Richard". "You going to introduce me?" she asked oddly intrigued by the mysterious figure who looked at her intently every so often. "Richard isn't to everyone's taste" he answered carefully. She looked at him "I will introduce myself if you prefer". "No its not that, just fair warning is all". They walked over to Richard who scrutinized her as they approached. "Richard, this is Kate. Kate, Richard" Seth said glaring at his brother to behave. She extended her hand "Hi Richard" with a warm smile. He took her hand "the preacher's daughter?". "Is it the outfit?" she asked. "It's a nice dress… too nice for these parts" he answered carefully. "Thanks, I'm gonna take that as a compliment" she replied with a grin. "You should" Richard replied before looking at Seth "Eddie wants to see you before you leave, business".
Seth looked back at Kate, clearly reluctant to leave her alone with Richard. "Go, wouldn't want to interfere in your TV repair business" she replied sarcastically. Seth smirked and nodded before heading inside. Richard was also smirking at her remark as she turned to face him "You take issue with our reputable business?" he asked.
"Oh, I have no doubt it has a reputation, but reputable might be a stretch" she replied.
He looked her over again smirk still on his face "Oh, we have an excellent reputation".
"For TV repairs, of course" she nodded with faux sincerity.
Richard responded in kind "What else?".
Kate snorted and raised her eyebrow.
"You're a smart girl, a preacher's daughter no less, why would you willingly associate yourself with criminals?" he asked smoothly.
"Why would a criminal willingly associate with a preacher's daughter?" she asked.
"You're attractive, covers off most of that question" he said taking a drag of his cigarette.
"Lots of people are attractive Richard, few people are interesting though" she replied with a small smile.
Richard turned and looked her over, intensely and she met his stare a comfortable beat passed between them before he replied with a grin "Seth is going to find himself out of his depth quickly with you, isn't he? Take it easy on him he's not as smart as you".
Kate laughed "I'll try, but I make no promises".
"I like you" he said still grinning.
"I like you too Richard" she replied and pulled him into an awkward hug.
"Hey, you trying to steal my girl?" Seth said chuckling walking towards them, clearly pleased at the odd interaction. Kate smiled back at him.
"She assaulted me I will have you know" Richard replied awkwardly, physical contact clearly not in his comfort zone.
"He needed a hug" she replied innocently back at Seth, who smirked looking her over.
"Uh huh, you want to head off?" he asked.
"Sure" she replied waving to Richard who nodded back.
"You hungry?".
"I could eat" she said.
"What kind of food you like?" he asked walking her toward his car and opening the door for her. She wasn't expecting him to do that but it was sweet.
"I'm not fussy" She replied before sitting in.
"I've heard that before" he said with a raised eyebrow closing the door.
"That right? Something simple is fine" she offered.
He sighed "you're not gonna make this easy, are you?".
She shrugged "I don't really know this neighbourhood that well to be honest".
"There is a diner nearby that does' good food, if that's simple enough for you" he said as he sat in and drove off.
"Sounds good".
"Good".
