Chapter 65

"Wait, Darlin', I'm driving the Escalade parked over here." He guided her to his vehicle, got her inside, and buckled her in. Then going around he got in, started the car, and headed for Tom's house. "Are you nervous about tonight?"

"No, why should I be?" she asked, while thinking that AJ might not be as staid as she had first thought. This truck thing certainly did not match what she had thought he would drive!

"Just wondered if maybe meeting Tom and Krystal on their own ground had you jittery, that's all," he said reaching for her hand and placing it on his thigh holding it there.

"No, don't know why it should?" She wiggled her fingers free of his hold and began to stroke up and down his thigh, seeing how that was affecting him.

She inched closer to his groin each stroke until he stopped her saying, "Sweetheart, if you don't stop, then Krystal is going to be really pissed at me, not that she isn't already," he frowned not wanting to go into all the mess that had happened before he'd left Tom's house. "Save that for when we get back to your place later."

"Why is she pissed at you?"

"She doesn't think my intentions toward you are honorable," he said glancing at her from the corner
of his eye. "Tom and I found a baby album and found a photo of the two of you naked, and I make the comment that the baby with the half moon on her right butt cheek was you. It got me a good slap to my face. She's going to have to learn how to keep her temper under control or she'll be court-martialed."

"She was just shocked to find out that you had seen me naked, Albert. I told her that you spent the night last night, but she thought that you had been on the couch like Tom had been at her place. I didn't want her thinking I was a slut so I just let her think that. I'm sorry, I should have told her the truth no matter what she thought of me. You shouldn't have been treated that way, and I'll tell her that!"

"I'm afraid her impression of me is not very high at the moment. We had a bad start and it only got worse. I don't know what to do to make things better between your sister any myself," AJ signed and rubbed his forehead as though he had a headache and the evening hadn't even started yet.

"Let me talk to her, I'm sure I can put her mind at rest. You probably just shocked her since I am guessing that no one else had ever found out we have the same birthmark. Since she's a virgin, I am guessing that no one has ever seen hers. Are you upset that I'm not?"

Swerving off the road and gaining control of the vehicle he looked at Krista and asked, "Do you mean that it was Krystal's fanny I was looking at and not yours?"

"Well, if it's the photo I'm thinking of…then you were looking at both of our fanny's, but if you commented on the birthmark, it was hers you were talking about because mine was out of sight of the camera," Krista giggled and then realized he had not answered her question. Did that mean he just didn't want to say that he thought she was a slut?

"Oh, great, I thought I was talking about the woman I loved and it was her sister. No wonder she slapped me good. You want to have a good whack at me to, Darlin'?" he asked shaking his head in disbelief. "I would kill Tom for saying that about you, wonder if he knows?"

"No, I don't want to hit you. But you never did answer my question. Do you think I'm a slut for not being a virgin?"

"No, whatever gave you that idea? I love you just the way you are," he declared. "Do you think I'm a slut because I'm not a virgin?"

Relieved that he felt that way, her mood quickly shifted once again, "You mean I wasn't your first?" she acted shocked.

"No, sadly, you weren't, but you will be my last," he said kissing the palm of her hand just as the pulled in Tom's drive way.

"Oh, Albert, I was teasing! I really don't think you are a slut!" she was sorry if she had upset him.
