Walk Away Joe
“ It was a losing battle, as his thoughts drifted back, against his will, to Sara.
One night, he’d told himself. He’d allow himself the luxury of keeping her with him for one night. That was his style. That was his speed.
That was the only option.
To even think about extending his time with her went against every promise he’d made to himself. If he’d had principles—which he obviously didn’t, or he never would have taken her to his bed—it would have gone against them, too.
But she was such a ...sweet, giving woman. Such a willing, playful lover, that one night had stretched to two. Two to a week, and still he couldn’t bring himself to let her go.
He’d broken every rule he’d ever made about involvement. Rules that forbade waking up with a woman in his bed. Rules that prohibited the kind of indulgence that led to expectations. He’d been feeding those expectations. He’d known from the outset that she thought she cared about him. That alone should have kept him away from her.MoreLess
