Why do I reach for the leg of Sally’s chair and yank her toward me like a possessive caveman, making her yelp?
able to rest my chin on her shoulder and murmur sweet nothings in hear ear about gambling like a degenerate.
she’s playing the fucking table, flirting with me to distract everyone from how terrible our hand is.
“Don’t make me say it. You know, Sunshine. You know I wanna be your guy.”
“Lucky for you”—oh God, oh God, Wyatt is slipping a hand onto my face, using his palm to angle my mouth up toward his—“I’m tight with God, and I’ll have you saying his name often. Eventually though, I’d like you to say mine instead.”
“Wait. Did you actually—” “Just come in my pants?” He grimaces. “Yes.”
If we take things any further, she’s gonna see the tattoo on my thigh—the one I got for her.
“Just sex, right?” Sally blinks. My pulse thumps. Ask me for more. Please, God, ask me for the world so I can give it to you. Instead, she nods. “Just sex. Yeah.”

Wyatt is killing me 😭
“Apparently, Wyatt was always talking about you bein’ his girlfriend back then.” “You didn’t!” Sally gasps. I chuckle. “I did. I hoped the rumor would get back around to you and you’d say yes, but I guess that never happened.”
One final piece of wisdom: people will make you happier than a job ever will.”
“Make one fucking sound,” he whispers. “I dare you, Sunshine. I dare you to get us caught. What do you think your daddy would do if he saw us like this? His sweet little girl being fucked hard by her real daddy and liking it.”

😂
“That day you picked me up, you said you’d be my sunshine anytime.” He searches my eyes. “What do you think about being my sunshine forever?”
Why is Wyatt getting to me so hard 😭
