Continuation from where Chapter 14 left off. Enjoy!

"Is Dad home yet?" Danny calls to his mother as she's walking up the stairs.

"Not yet. He should be here soon though."

They're still standing in the foyer and Lacey is admiring how nice their home is. "Your house is really nice Danny."

"Thanks, but tell my mom. She'll swoon. This was all her doing. I can't believe you already met her and our moms went to high school together."

"I will. And I know. We were at Johnny Cakes when we saw her. She told Clara and I that she had a son about our age. I shrugged it off thinking she was just being nice."

"Well, she was even though she probably would have said something to me. I'm glad you did get introduced to my friends."

"Technically, Phoebe introduced me to her friends, including you." Lacey says.

"You're right, she did." Danny pulls her and grabs her close and they embrace in a kiss. "Remind me to thank Phoebe for that, will you?"

"I'll be happy to." Lacey says between kisses. They continue to kiss when Danny's father, Vikram walks through the door. Vikram has the same amused expression on his face that his son has. They stop kissing and they break apart from their hug. Then Danny grabs Lacey's hand to introduce her. Lacey is obviously embarrassed that her first meeting of his father is this way, but Danny doesn't seem to care.

"Hey Dad, this is my girlfriend, Lacey. Lacey, this is my father Vikram. Most people just call him Vik though."

Vikram still looks amused, and he raised his eyebrow at the word "girlfriend". His facial expressions mimics his son's perfectly. Vikram extends his hand to Lacey and she lets Danny's go to shake Vikram's hand.

"It's so nice to meet you, Lacey. I've heard a lot about you."

"Thanks. It's nice to meet you too, Mr. Desai."

"Well now that that's done, let's go upstairs." Danny says as he grabs Lacey's hand and turns to head up the stairs. "See you later, Dad." Danny calls out to his father.

"You look just like your father. The only difference is the hair." Lacey says as they're walking up the steps.

"I know." Danny says while opening the door to his room. It looks like a small apartment. There's a huge tv on the wall facing the bed. He has a smaller tv in the corner that must be his video game area. And there's a loveseat facing a fireplace.

Shit. He has a fireplace in his room!

Lacey can't help but feel like she might get into trouble in this room. She gets a little, no a lot nervous as he closes the door behind them.

"Your parents won't say anything about us being in here with the door closed?" Lacey hopes her nervousness doesn't show in her voice.

"No, why?" Danny asks noticing how nervous she sounds, but doesn't mention it.

"No reason." Lacey says as she heads over to the loveseat, afraid to sit on his bed.

"Are you afraid something is gonna happen, Lace?" Danny teases while trying to make light of the situation. His signature smirk is in tow as he heads over to the loveseat with her.

"Is that a trick question, Danny?" Lacey says, as she takes her jacket off.

"No. Why would that be a trick question?" He asks as he removes his own jacket and sits next to her.

"Then it's a question that I don't know how to answer." Lacey responds, truthfully.

"Why don't you know how to answer that question? All I asked was are you afraid something is gonna happen."

Lacey lets out a nervous breath of air. "Well Danny, that question has two answers, which is why I don't know how to answer it."

"And those are...?"

"Yes I'm afraid something is going to happen and no, I'm not afraid something is going to happen." Lacey knows she isn't making much sense, but being alone with him like this is messing with her mind. While she doesn't think she's quite ready to do anything with him, and considering she just met him, she does feel like she wants something to happen. This is very confusing to her. He then stuns her with his own admission.

"I think I know what you mean. You're scared to do something, but you want to. Am I right?" Danny says as he grabs her hand.

Shit! How does he know exactly what I'm thinking? Or did I accidentally say that out loud? Phoebe did the same thing earlier.

"I can't lie to you Danny, so yes, you're right. How did you know that though?"

"Because I'm thinking the same thing. Although I'm not exactly scared, and I want nothing more than to be with you, I promise I won't push you to do anything that you're not ready for."

Lacey then takes that moment to crash her lips into his. As their lips part she asks him, "Why are you so perfect?"

Danny lets out a laugh. "Lacey, I think you're pretty spectacular too." He then pulls her back into a kiss until they're interrupted by a knock on the door. Danny gets up to open it since he locked the door.

"Hey Dad, what can I do for you?" It's clear that Danny is annoyed at being interrupted.

"Danny, I need to talk to you for a minute." Vikram says, as he tries to scan over the entire room to see exactly what's going on.

"Ok." He then turns to Lacey. "I'll be right back."

"Ok." Lacey says.


Danny follows his father to his parents' bedroom. It's a little far away from his so they can have their privacy. Danny is wondering what the hell his parents want to talk to him about. When they enter the room, he sees that his mother is sitting on the bed, with a look on her face Danny can't quite place. He's usually good at reading his parents, but he has no idea what's up with them. He hears his father shut the door behind them and heads over to the bed to sit beside Karen. He sees that they have moved one of the chairs from their sitting area over for him to sit down.

What the hell?

"Have a seat son." Vikram says, apparently taking the lead in whatever they want to say to their son.

"What's going on? Did somebody die?" Danny asks, visibly concerned with whatever they have to tell him.

"No, nobody died." Karen says.

"Then what is it? Are one of you guys sick? Are you getting a divorce?"

"No, Danny. None of the above. But your mother and I need to talk to you about something serious."

"Ok. What is it?" Danny asks wishing they would just get to the point so he can get back to Lacey.

"Son, your mother and I didn't raise you to be the type of guy that intentionally tries to hurt people." Vikram says. He pauses to let his words sink in.

"I know that. What are you getting at?"

"Well then I think you need to explain to us what you're doing." Says Vikram.

"What do you mean Dad?" Danny thinks he knows where this conversation is going and he doesn't appreciate it at all.

"What are you doing with that girl then?" Vikram asks his son, sounding extremely serious.

"What do you mean by 'what am I doing with her'? I'm just spending time wtih my girlfriend. Is that a crime?" Danny asks his parents, trying to keep the anger in his voice from rising.

"That's exactly what we mean. She's really your girlfriend?" Karen asks.

"Yes she is. Why? Would you be asking me this if she was thin like you Mom?" Danny is clearly angry at his parents for even suggesting that he's only trying to hurt her. First Joe, now them.

Karen and Vikram can see how upset they've made their son, and both realize they may have made a mistake in their assumptions. But it's too late to back out now, so all they can do is apologize for being wrong.

"You seem upset, Danny." Vikram asks trying to deflect the situation.

"Yeah, I am. Because you guys thought that little of me and her to think I would be pretending to like her just to hurt her. I can't help that she doesn't look how you expected her to, but I really like her. I might even love her."

Karen and Vikram are shocked. They've never heard Danny mention loving a girl before.

"You really do like Lacey, don't you?" Karen asks, finally understanding that he means what he just said.

"Yes I do Mom. I know she might be a little chubby, but I think she's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. I can't help that I fell for her. But she's beautiful inside and out."

Vikram understand his son on a deeper level because that's exactly the way he felt when he first met Karen.

"Well, then we need to apologize to you Danny. We're sorry for thinking the worst."

Danny is still angry, but it's starting to subside. He's glad that they apologized. And he can't exactly stay angry with his parents. "Thanks. You guys will get to know her and see what I see because I'm planning on spending lot of time with her."

"Well she is a very pretty girl, no one can deny that. She looks just like her mother." Karen adds.

"Who is her mother?" Vikram asks.

"Judy Roberts. She went to high school with us." Karen tells Vikram.

"Judy? I don't remember her." Vikram says, painfully trying to remember who she is.

"She was a cheerleader with me. Her picture is right next to mine in the yearbook." Karen gets up to go and retrieve the book from her closet. She has it in a box with her other high school memorabilia. Karen is a person that really doesn't know how to let things go. She gets the book and shows it to Vikram. He looks at it and reminisces on how Karen looked when he first fell in love with her.

"Ok. I remember now. The dimples. Yeah she does look just like her mother."

Karen takes the book and shows it to Danny. It was like looking at Lacey. He couldn't help but smile. "Can I show this to her?" Danny says and he gets up to leave. "Are we good?"

"Yeah, we're good. And we're sorry Danny." Vikram says to him.

"No problem." Danny says as he leaves their room and heads back to his.


Lacey is sitting in Danny's room wondering what his father wanted to talk to him about. She figured he probably wanted to talk to him about having her in his room with the door closed. And not only was the door closed, it was locked.

Danny really thinks he's slick.

But she's just as slick as Danny because she politely made herself comfortable on his bed. And she had taken her boots off. She wasn't gonna lay down, but Danny has a really comfortable room that's easy to relax in. That's what she told herself.

Who am I kidding? I wanted to get in this bed.

Lacey is quietly giggling to herself when Danny walks back into the room. He instantly notices that she has made herself comfortable in his room. He's glad he didn't have to convince her to move to the bed. He still didn't expect anything to happen, but they could still do some things. If he is lucky. If anything, he at least wanted to rub his hands over her body. He tried not to get excited, but that is hard to do considering they're alone in his room and she's on his bed. But it's too soon.

"I see you've made yourself at home." Danny says as he walks over to the bed to sit down.

"Sorry. Is that ok?" She innocently asks. She already knows it is, but she still wants to make sure.

"Of course. You're welcome in my room and in my bed anytime." There's a hint of innuendo in his statement, and they both know it.

"Great. Because I really like your room. And your bed is more comfortable than mine. And you have a fireplace in here. I would kill to have a fireplace in mine. You should let me have this room."

Dammit! I'm rambling and saying way too much!

"Sure. When do you want to move in?" He says with a hint of amusement in his voice.

"I wish I could really move in here. I know my mother would not allow that at all."

"So you know the next best thing then, right?" Danny asks.

Lacey starts to grin, knowing what is about to say. "And what's that?"

"Spend as much time here as possible."

"That sounds like a plan." Lacey says, as she smiles. She notices the book he has in his hands. "What's that?" she says while pointing at it.

"Oh. Our moms' yearbook. Did you know their pictures are right next to each other?" He says as he opens the book to the page. "You look just like your mother, dimples and all."

Lacey looks at the page and sees their mothers looking so young. "Yeah, I know. Clara didn't get any. And that is so weird that their pictures are right next to each other."

"My mom said they were cheerleaders together. And I'm not really trying to change the subject, but what do you want to do now? I really don't want to sit and talk about our mothers."

"We can do whatever you want to do." The words are out of her mouth before she realizes she just set herself up. Too late to take it back now though.

Good one Lacey, you fool.

"Are you sure about that Lacey?" Danny asks her as he scoots closer to her and looks at her.

Yes! I mean, No! I don't know.

"Ummmm, I guess so? What did you have in mind?" She eagerly and reluctantly asks him.

"Lay down." Danny says as he stands up to give her room to do just that.

Lacey doesn't know how to describe what she's feeling right now. She's scared and eager at the same time. She locks eyes with him and moves closer to the headboard to lay down. She allows her body to fall back on the bed and her head rest on the pillow. She feels the bed dip in as he lays down beside her. He lies on his side propped up on one arm just watching her. He then takes his hand and starts to rub on her thigh. He wishes he could feel smooth skin, but all he feels is her lace stockings. He enjoyed seeing her legs in them, but now they're just in the way. He knows he can't go too far and ask her to take them off, so he moves his hand higher to her chest. He looks into her eyes, signaling her approval for him to continue. He unbuckled her belt and starts to unbutton her dress. He can hear her breath start to quicken as he pulls her dress open. His eyes are amazed at the sight of her breasts in a black lace bra. He can see her erect nipples through the lace.

"Tell me to stop if I'm going too far." Danny says to her.

She briefly closes her eyes as she feels him climb on top of her. He puts his arms on both sides of her to support his own body weight and stares into her eyes. He leans down to kiss her and she instantly opens her legs (just a little) to allow him to lay on top of her. She wraps her arms around him to caress his back as he starts to slide his hand under her bra to caress her nipples. She gets a little freaked out when she feels his erect penis push up against her. She's momentarily frightened as she thinks of how all of him will fit into her when there's a knock at his door.

Danny lets out a frustrated groan. "You've got to be fucking kidding me," he says more to himself than Lacey. "I'm sorry." He says as he places another kiss on her lips. "Yeah?!" He yells out in frustration.

It's his mother. "Danny, Joe is here to see you."

Of course it would be this asshole. Fuck!

"Tell him I'm busy." Danny yells.

"You're busy? Busy doing what?" Karen asks.

"Shit." Danny says as he gets up off the bed. Lacey gets up as well and starts to button her dress. She fixes herself up as quickly as she can and runs over to sit on the loveseat before Danny opens the door. The look on Joe's face is priceless when he sees that Lacey is there. Karen doesn't seem to be affected at all as she turns and heads back down the hall. Joe reluctantly steps into Danny's room and actually speaks to Lacey. He appears to be extremely embarrassed. Danny looks mad as shit.

"I'm sorry to just drop by. I'm not interrupting anything, am I?" Joe innocently asks.

Danny sarcastically says, "No Joe, you didn't interrupt anything. What are you doing here anyway?"

"I came by to apologize for earlier. I'm sorry. I was just kidding around." He says.

"I accept your apology, now leave." Danny says.

"So I was interrupting something." Joe says with a Sylvester the Cat look on his face.

Lacey lets out an involuntary scoff and they both look over at her. Danny winks at her and she blushes.

"Seriously, Joe, you really, REALLY need to leave. Now!" Danny says playfully as he pushes Joe towards the door and out of it. "See you at school tomorrow." He doesn't even give Joe a chance to say anything. He closes and locks the door back.

He turns to Lacey with a sexy grin on his face and says, "Where were we?"


More to come. Thanks for reading!
