Alex and Bobby part 2
Bobby was a wreck the whole day. What if Eames ended up liking this guy a lot to where she wanted to have sex with him instead of Bobby? He didn't want his relationship with Eames to end like this or to end at all for that matter.
"I hope you have a terrible time." He sounded jealous but he didn't care.
"Whatever. I'll call you later and might stop by." She drove off after he went up the steps of his apartment.
Alex's Apartment:
Eames took a while to get dress. She wanted to look nice for her date even if nothing ended up happening that night or any night. It had been a while since she last went out. Sure she and Bobby go out but not on a date or anything. She didn't know why but it seemed like he was scared of asking her out but not scared of sleeping with her. She didn't get it. She did enjoy their relationship though and true be told she kind of just agreed to go out with Jack because Bobby didn't seem to have interest in her like that. He just wanted to fuck her.
"Coming." The door bell rang right on time. They were going to a very nice Italian restaurant so she got to dress up for it.
"Wow you look gorgeous." She smiled at his compliment. She wasn't all about herself or anything but she thought she did look pretty good in her tight black dress; especially for her age.
"Well thank you very much. You look nice as well."
"Thank you. Ready to go?" He held out his arm for her to link hers with.
"Yep."
Bobby's Apartment
Bobby spent the all night lounging around his place drinking. It wasn't the healthiest thing in the world but it was the only thing he could do. He wished Alex was there with him right now. They would probably be just getting done and watching TV until they were ready to go the next round.
The doorbell broke his train of thought. He was a little excited since he thought it was Alex. He checked the clock and saw it was a little early for her date to be done but hopefully she had such a bad time that she had left early. He could dream couldn't he? He sat his beer down and opened the door only to be disappointed with seeing his best friend Mike Logan.
"Oh it's just you." Mike walked in and chuckled.
"Wow it's great to see you too buddy."
"That's not what I meant. I thought you were someone else."
"You mean like your fuck buddy Alex." Bobby got really quiet. "Oh come on. Everyone at 1PP knows you two are screwing. They have had bets since the day you two first started working together." He noticed the empty beer bottles.
"Don't say it Mike."
"I was just gonna say why didn't you invite me over. We could have got drunk together. It's much fun with a friend then doing it alone. At least you haven't hit any hard stuff yet."
"I did actually. I threw the bottles away though. I didn't want you to think I was an alcoholic."
"You got anything else besides beer?" He sat down on the couch and searched the TV for something to watch.
"How about scotch?" Bobby was already in the kitchen looking in the fridge before he could answer.
"Sounds great. I think I found the game that we missed earlier today." Bobby came back a few minutes later with two glasses of scotch.
"Cheers." They tapped glasses and went to drinking their own drinks. At least Mike was right about one thing; it was more fun to get drunk with someone else than just himself. It was a ton of fun getting drunk with Alex. They had some of the best drunk sex ever. And the best part about being in a so called relationship like theirs was that they never felt guilty after waking up in bed together with a hangover.
"So you want to talk about it?" Bobby was slightly tipsy which surprised him. He expected to be a babbling idiot by now but he wasn't.
"Not really?" He took another swig as he watched the game.
"Did you and Eames break up?"
It was pointless to keep anything from Mike because he was going to keep digging and digging until he got some answers. "She's out with some hot shot lawyer. He seems to really like her."
"And let me guess he is good looking and successful."
"Yep everything women want. And to make matter worse she was flirting with him. I mean one minute we are about to screw in the break room and then the next some lawyer is coming on to her and she bats her eyelashes at him. I just don't understand women sometimes."
"Well can you blame her Bobby? Look it's obvious you like her more than just a friend. You better do something about it or it's gonna be too late and someone else is going to snatch her up."
"I hate it when you're right. She said she was going to stop by later. I'll tell her then."
"Can I be here for that?" They just laughed and watched the game some more.
"So since you know all about my love life, how are you and Carolyn doing?"
"Very good. Best sex I have ever had but unlike you we are in a relationship." Bobby laughed.
"Never thought I would live to hear you say that. I'm really happy for you man. You guys make a really good couple."
"Yea you and Alex do too. You just need to tell her how you feel."
"I will I promise. By the way where is Carolyn tonight? Don't tell me you left her home alone."
"Nope she went to visit her parents upstate. She gets back tomorrow."
Bobby raised his glass.
"To our women. Wherever they may be and whatever they may be doing, they will always be in our hearts." They tapped glasses again.
"Man we sound pathetic." They both laughed and kicked their feet up on the table to finish the game.
The Restaurant
"Thank you." Alex had thanked the waiter when he had brought her, her second glass of wine. She didn't normally drink that much when she was on a date (unless she was out with Bobby) but tonight the mood just felt right. She enjoyed Jake's company. The conversation went well and there were no awkward silences unlike when she and Bobby went out in the beginning. But that was Bobby for ya. He was shy and awkward at times but he made it up in bed. And now as the years went by he opened up more around not just her but to other people as well.
"So should I be watching my back right about now?"
"What do you mean?"
"I was really nervous about asking you out for a number of reasons. One you are very beautiful and I was intimated by your status let's say at 1PP. I have been working there off and on for a year and all I hear about is the hard ass bitch. No offense. You are exiting my expectations."
She laughed. "Well not all the rumors are true. I don't show anyone mercy especially when it comes to bad guys. What was another reason why you were worried about asking me out?"
"I was scared I was going to get knocked out by that partner of yours."
"He might be big but Bobby's harmless."
"You don't see it do you?" She was confused for a minute.
"See what?"
"He is very protective of you and anyone could see that he's obviously in love with you." Alex never thought of that. He had to be wrong. Bobby couldn't love her. She wasn't even his type. He must care about her though because you can't sleep with someone you don't care about could you? She enjoyed his company but she didn't know if she loved him. Deep down she was scared to love him because of rejection. In case he didn't love her she didn't want it to be one sided.
"He is protective of me but I'm the same way with him too. That's what it means to be partners. You have nothing to worry about. We are just friends. If he did feel that way about me and that's a big if, I don't feel the same way." The words tasted like vinegar coming out of her mouth and she bit her bottom lip. She hoped he didn't notice.
"Well that's good because I like you." He held her hand and kissed it.
"I like you too." Not as much as Bobby though. She said to herself.
Bobby's Apartment
"Why are we laughing?" Mike and Bobby were cracking up at the commercials.
"Because of the talking dog. That one was funny." They were both drunk as hell but like Mike said it was fun. The doorbell rang.
"Did you order pizza again Mike?"
"No maybe with our luck it's a stripper." They both laughed again.
"Is that all you think about?"
"Hey my girlfriend has been gone for a few days. I haven't had sex in three days. Do you know how hard it's been for me?" Bobby rolled his eyes.
"Who is it?"
"Alex." She could hear the slur in his words and knew he was drunk.
"Shit! Hide the bottles now." Bobby whispered as he and Mike threw away the bottles.
"You can't hide the fact that you're drunk."
"Damit."
"Bobby come on open up please?" Alex was still knocking on the door waiting for Bobby to answer the door.
"Mike answer the door. I'm gonna get some water."
"Oh yea like that's gonna help." He went over to the door and opened it for Alex. His mouth flew open as he eyed her up and down.
"Oh hi Mike. I didn't know you were here." She walked past him as he closed the door. He checked her out from behind making sure she didn't catch him. She did look good and Bobby better tell her how he felt before Mike even left Carolyn and took a shot at her.
"You look fancy for a date. Where did you guys go?" She figured Bobby told Mike everything. They were like family.
"We went to Angelo's."
"I heard that place was like booked three months in advance."
"Yea well he pulled some strings." She sat down on the couch and could smell alcohol bad.
"Hey Eames you want something to drink?" She could hear Bobby from the kitchen she couldn't see him though.
"I'll have whatever you guys were having." Mike got on the couch and got a little closer to her. She knew he was drunk and probably wouldn't do this if he was sober, she still liked the attention. He put his arm around her neck and put his face closer to her neck.
"You smell delicious and you look fucking amazing." He kissed her neck and she giggled. Half of him was doing this just to get Bobby to man up and get out of the kitchen and the other half of him actually liked Eames but not as much as Carolyn. He just liked to flirt in a friendly way. And he wasn't lying when he said that she smelled and looked good.
"Alright I think it's time for you to leave." Bobby came with a glass of scotch for Alex. By the look on his face Mike jumped up away from her.
"Yea Alex stop seducing me gosh." He joked as he sat back down again this time on the other end of the couch.
"Is that for me?" She asked and reached for the glass. Bobby was in a trance at how she looked. Her black dress was skin tight and shows off way too many curves for his liking. He actually loved it, it just wasn't for him. It was for Jake. Her cleavage was just enough to tempt him. And her five inch heels completed the whole look. Needless to say all he wanted to do was forget about Mike and push her up against the wall. The only good thing out of her date was that instead of going home with her date she ended up coming here.
"Uh yea. Here you go. Sorry Mike and I are a little drunk."
"Thanks and I don't mind." She took a sip and walked into the kitchen giving Bobby the I want sex right now look while swinging her hips.
"Hey Mike, I'm gonna call you a cab from the kitchen." That was code for we will be in the kitchen screwing.
"Hey if you guys are going to have sex do you mind if I stay in watch?" He was only joking.
"No!" They both said from the kitchen before Mike chuckled and walked out of the apartment.
"I'm gonna get a cab outside. I'm sure they are still out at this time. I'll call you when I get home." Bobby didn't hear a word he said but said sure anyway. He was too busy pushing Alex's legs apart as she sat on the counter. He pushed her panties to the side and in an instant he was inside of her. It was going to be a good night.
