At the end of the day, here is Brooke in her room. After a very pleasant little shower, she first put on some pretty underwear... Determined to find the outfit that would give Lucas an electroshock or even a heart attack, she chose to wear a black leather mini skirt with a plunging red neckline. She sprayed herself with a little delicate and fruity perfume and put on her high heels. She then looked at herself in the mirror. She found herself glamorous and sexy and she felt ready to continue what she had started... Playing with the forbidden.

BROOKE'S THOUGHT : Well even if I'm going first and foremost for Sam... He and I will be alone after bringing the kids back to the home!

Confident, Brooke went up to the main hall towards the exit. Everything was silent and the corridor was deserted. As she grabbed the handle to open the door, she came face to face with Nathan who was entering the building.

NATHAN : Good evening beautiful!

BROOKE : Shit, you gave me such a scare!

NATHAN : Excuse me.

Nathan then looked at her completely more carefully. His pupils dilated in a quarter of a second.

NATHAN : Wow! Have I been touched by grace?! Because I have a more than divine vision in front of me!

BROOKE : I'll return the compliment... You're really not bad either!

NATHAN : I would have preferred to make myself irresistible to a pretty, playful and statuesque brunette I met this afternoon... But I finally have to take my dear mother to dinner... She would certainly disown me, otherwise! By the way, I was wondering, could we see each other tomorrow before I leave again?

BROOKE : Uh I admit that I don't know yet... In fact, it could depend on how my evening goes.

NATHAN : Uh ok... I'm not sure I follow you there, but luckily for me, I like suspense!

LUCAS : Um um...

Lucas had just made his presence known. Nathan and Brooke turned around at the same time, silent.

LUCAS : Brooke, can we go?

Lucas was upset and almost didn't hide it. Brooke clearly distinguished the bitterness in the too dry tone of his voice...

NATHAN : Yes, she's all yours! By the way, my father, the leather jacket really suit you and this look... Normal!

Nathan couldn't have been more right. Now that she was looking at him, Brooke's pupils dilated. She admired Lucas and found him simply magnificent. A shiver even ran through her entire body. His virile allure and his bad-boy style gave her the fatal blow. Her whole body demanded him and ignited. And even if she found a certain charm in Nathan, he now looked pale next to the devilishly hot priest. Her brain and all the nerve endings seemed, for a moment, to lose sight of a detail that was nevertheless crucial... That of the frustrating and obsessive inaccessibility of this man in light of his ecclesiastical devotion... Nathan took it upon himself to bring Brooke out of her paralyzing ecstasy by addressing her before moving away towards the corridor.

NATHAN : Good evening Brooke, I really hope to have the chance to meet you again tomorrow ... And more if we get along ...

His last words caused a certain movement of annoyance in Lucas, which flattered Brooke all the more ... Without beating around the bush, Nathan clearly displayed his intentions towards her, not seeing where the harm could be in making advances towards her, in front of a man whose thoughts could only be pure and innocent.

BROOKE : It works! Good evening to you too and say hello to Debie from me.

Brooke then turned proudly towards Lucas, giving him a little look filled with satisfaction and defiance.

BROOKE : There, now we can go!

While she followed Lucas, taking care not to get one of her heels stuck in the cobblestones of the central aisle ...

LUCAS' THOUGHT : What idea did I have ...?! She has never been as desirable as tonight... I walk straight, but the mere sound of her heels is enough to make me lose my mind! Well, the children will be with us soon, it will be easier to think of something else... Or not. I hope so anyway!

Once in the car, Brooke was the first to take the initiative of a conversation.

BROOKE : Since we're again alone together... Can you tell me a little more about the reason for my presence?

Her question was very simple... Yet Lucas seemed to hesitate, feeling like he was trapped. He just gave her a little puzzled look while remaining silent, making her hesitate in turn...

BROOKE : You told me that Sam wasn't really in good spirits...?!

Lucas' shoulders then sank almost imperceptibly in relief.

LUCAS : Uh yes, yes that's it! A story of a date that went wrong according to Quentin...

While she waited for the rest of the explanations, Lucas stared at his path, seeming more and more nervous to Brooke.

BROOKE : You haven't received any other information or more specific details?

LUCAS : No. I don't know more...

BROOKE : Mmh ok... It must be serious enough for it to affect him like that! Because Sam seems to me to have a fighter's character...

As soon as they arrived in front of the home, Lucas hurried to announce their arrival with a little honk. The two teenagers didn't take long to get out and walked, smiling, towards the car. They got in the back.

QUENTIN : Yo Brooke, it's badass that you're accompanying us!

SAM : Yeah, at least the girls can be fairly represented in the choice of film, for once!

Brooke, who had already experienced a few heartbreaks, found the young girl very cheerful and in a good mood. But the announcement of the evening's film program also caught her full attention. She observed Lucas who concentrated on going backwards, taking the opportunity to look away. Apparently, it was from the youngsters that she would get the most information...

BROOKE : So we're going to the movies... Ok! Cool! But is there really a movie theater around here?

QUENTIN : Not here, no, but in Pont Audemer, yes. A brand new one, do you know it? It's about twenty minutes away...

BROOKE : Absolutely not! But I understand why the car was essential...

SAM : In our town, it's better to have one if you want to do some fun stuff...

On the road, and while the two teenagers were debating which movie they wanted to see, Brooke discreetly said to Lucas:

BROOKE : She doesn't seem really traumatized...

LUCAS : Huh? Who?

BROOKE : Sam and his heartbreak, come on!

LUCAS : Oh... Yes, of course. Sorry, I'm focused on the road. You know, teenagers in pain sometimes paradoxically tend to repress their discomfort or their melancholy...

BROOKE : That's true... But this time, she would hide them really deeply! Well, so much the better, I suppose...

LUCAS : Yes, so much the better...

More and more convinced that Sam was just a pretext to persuade her to accept the invitation, Brooke found herself smiling with satisfaction as she turned her head towards the window to watch the road go by.

A little later, Quentin spoke to Lucas in a spontaneous and benevolent tone.

QUENTIN : By the way... Did the family party at the abbey go well today?

LUCAS : Yes. Very well. Thank you for caring.

SAM : Oh yes, that's right, it was this afternoon... Who did you both have as a visitor?

Although for Brooke, this absence of visit was entirely hoped for, normal and foreseeable... She realized, at that moment, that no one had seemed to have come for Lucas, no one she had seen, at least. As if to answer this inner questioning that animated him then, Lucas looked at Sam in the rearview mirror.

LUCAS : Like any vocation or profession, the priesthood has its joys and its sorrows... Loneliness and isolation are part of it. But you are not unaware that I appreciate and that I seek precisely this providential solitude...

SAM : Yeah! It's like your refusal to have a cell phone... You are a real lone wolf!

Although the teenagers did not seem overly challenged by his justification... Brooke wondered.

BROOKE'S THOUGHT : How can it be that a man so young doesn't receive a visit from anyone on the only occasion that presents itself? If not parents, doesn't he even have a brother, a sister, or even a friend who would care enough for him? In the end... We're not so different! We can't count on anyone... Well, he has God... And it's an informed choice on his part. As for me, it's... It's a choice by default.

They both remained silent and the atmosphere remained a little heavy and oppressive in the front of the car ... Until they entered the large establishment reserved for the seventh art and recently inaugurated. Everyone seemed to quickly agree on an action film between the policeman and the comic... While they were queuing at the checkout, Brooke was squeezed between Lucas and the people who followed them ... She made no effort to give him more space, taking care that he felt her breath against his skin ... She voluntarily pressed her chest against his back. Tense, he only answered in monosyllables to Quention next to him. Brooke's first little provocation took fun when their turn came and she walked towards the counter.

BROOKE : They take the card! I'm the one paying, then!

LUCAS : That's nice of you but you don't have to do that. I'm the one who asked you to come. So I'll pay, Brooke.

BROOKE : That wasn't an offer. Otherwise I feel like I'll owe you!

She gave Lucas a firm and unquestionable look who didn't object and finally put his wallet away. Even if this money hadn't been obtained entirely legally, Brooke felt her dignity regained and it felt good.

LUCAS : But I'll pay for the kids' sodas and popcorn and that's non-negotiable!

Brooke nodded to show her approval and even gave him a knowing wink.

A few minutes later, they had arrived in the large room that was already quite full. Brooke looked for a good spot...

BROOKE : Let's go there!

Brooke had spotted four empty seats. She rushed to reserve them and naturally sat down against the wall. Everyone took their seats in the order they arrived... Sam and Quentin were sitting next to Lucas, who was sitting next to Brooke. Soon, the crowded room darkened with deafening music... The screen came to life and their eyes slowly adjusted to the twilight as the last few latecomers took their seats.

Although the movie had already started, Brooke's attention had already been elsewhere for several minutes. The sight of their two bodies, close together in the chiaroscuro, created a kind of close intimacy between Lucas and her... Determined to see her ploy through to the end, she began to initiate a light legwork... Crossing them subtly at first, then uncrossing them sensually... Slowly... She liked to think that Lucas didn't miss anything of this show, much more captivating than what was playing out on the giant screen. Boroke was still unaware that his wish had been granted and that Lucas was very interested in his little unfair game.

LUCAS' THOUGHT : I should never have sat next to her. My hands are already sweaty, my body numb and my eyes bewitched ...

Lucas was already almost unable to think anymore. His fascinated gaze detailed Brooke's movements and the nudity of her skin.

LUCAS' THOUGHT : Her rounded knees, her firm thighs, the satiny grain of her skin and the promiscuity of our bodies ... Torture!

Brooke noticed Lucas fidgeting painfully in his armchair, she tilted her head to look at him out of the corner of her eye. Caught in the act, Lucas quickly averted his gaze which was clearly eyeing her exposed flesh.

LUCAS' THOUGHT : Shit ... I'm sure she caught me!

He turned his attention back to the film but his face expressed, in spite of himself, his confusion and his embarrassing guilt.

BROOKE'S THOUGHT : How long has he been staring at me like that?

This new and obvious demonstration of attraction made Brooke want to provoke him a little more ... Her body warmed up and her heart began to beat harder and faster ... She placed her hand on his thigh to slide it in a pleasant caress solitary but eager for an erotic contact on his increasingly hungry skin. Her fingers and her palm gently rubbed the bare skin of his leg while all her senses began to boil.

LUCAS' THOUGHT : I really should change places ... But how to do that without arousing suspicion ... I'm stuck!

Brooke sank further into the seat to watch him... Until she noticed his gaze sweeping over her body a second time. Then turning to her, Lucas surely didn't expect to meet her gaze. He didn't look down. They stayed staring at each other for a short while, barely a few seconds, but his gaze was deep and insistent... It excited Brooke madly but he looked away. Brooke knew now that the excitement had won him over too... She then decided to innocently put her arm on the armrest to join his already installed one.

BROOKE'S THOUGHT : Let's take it easy...

She held her breath but Lucas didn't react, he didn't remove his arm either. Brooke gained ground. Lucas remained frozen. As for Brooke, she was careful not to look in his direction. Her hand ventured onto his... The back of her hand and her knuckles almost imperceptibly caressed Lucas's knuckles...

LUCAS' THOUGHT : We're going to be spotted in no time like this, uncoveredand at this height...

Brooke's knuckles ventured more openly into contact with Lucas's hand until her fingers finally reacted. She felt them grip her and quickly but delicately pull their hands to slide them behind the armrest. Brooke deduced that he wanted their two hands to continue their intimate caresses in a more secret and cautious way. Galvanized and relieved by his initiative, her teasing nails came to tickle the hollow of his palm ... Really gently, she extracted them from his grip to approach her hand to his thigh molded in his jeans. The back of her fingers caressed the outside of his leg and she gradually accentuated the presence and her contact. Still delicately, she turned her hand over and slid a nimble finger on his pants. Evaluating his reaction every second, Lucas let himself go. His desire seemed to prevail over what his reason refused. As Brooke's hand continued to slowly creep in to check for consent with every inch of it...

BROOKE'S THOUGHT : Maybe he's willing to take things, as if there's nothing he can do to stop them from happening? Maybe he even wants them to happen...?

Lucas was barely breathing, simply not believing the audacity of Brooke's daring and adventurous fingers.

LUCAS'S THOUGHT : What possessed me to accept this game that will inevitably end badly... Well, badly, everything is relative. Of course she's getting dangerously close to my crotch... What did I think!?

While he was still trying to reason with himself, his primal and animal instinct made him spontaneously spread his knees ... Interpreting this little tacit reaction as the release of all restraint in Lucas, and as a logical continuation, Brooke's hand ended up languorously brushing the tight fabric at the birth of the so tempting bump. Determined to offer Lucas this imminent contact on his hardened member ... Lucas already had no more means to react nor even the will to oppose Brooke's desires but also his own.

LUCAS' THOUGHT : My God ... I want and hope for this contact as much as I fear and disapprove of it!

Thus breaking down her final barriers, Brooke began to move back and forth on the distended length of Lucas's pants. Her throat tightened as hard as her lower abdomen when she felt his cock swell and begin to throb under her touch. The pressure of her fingers feeling his sex made it harden even more under his clothes. She was now certain since she felt it under her hand: nature had endowed him with an enormous member! But nature was not so well made since he was spiritually not authorized to use it ... Well settled in his seat, Lucas no longer emitted any resistance and let himself go to Brooke's delicious initiative. His sex was hot and big, Brooke even had the impression of feeling the rush of blood in her veins when she caressed it. Her hands were discreet but her fingers and movements were precise as she jerked him off skillfully...

LUCAS' THOUGHT : Fuck... This feels so good!

A kind of burning fever took hold of Brooke's lower abdomen and their breathing became louder. Brooke knew they had to stay quiet... A scandal would follow if they were caught in the act. After a few insistent movements, she came even closer to unhook her zipper... Lucas suddenly leaned forward and took her hand... Brooke jumped. Her breathing stopped for a moment and several contradictory feelings mixed together... All at once, fear, desire, surprise, impatience took hold of her... Lucas's grip became firmer.

BROOKE'S THOUGHT : Is he going to hurt me again? Is he going to scream? Leave or simply change position to guide me towards the forbidden?
