Next One Is a Babe

He stared at the couple, who were smiling. “I think I should talk to Logan about this. Since marriage is involved, we’d have to meet his parents sooner or later.”

Fiona nodded, though she was still worried. They could see that Lola was happy though. All her life, she had been obedient and never crossed the line with boys. This was the first time they saw her beaming at a guy so happily.

Logan and Lola stayed the night at the Hunts’ place, so Langdon wanted to drink with Logan yet again. By now, Lola was used to them drinking for hours, so she went back to her room after dinner. A long while later, someone wobbled into her room, and she knew who it was without guessing.

Logan pulled the blanket down and lay beside her, then he pulled her into his embrace. Initially, Lola thought he had gotten drunk, but then he said, “Your father’s a really heavy drinker. I can’t outdrink him.”

Lola chuckled and turned around to make herself snug. “Dad’s been drinking for more than twenty years. Of course he’d outdrink you.”

“Yeah. He wouldn’t have let me off the hook if I didn’t pretend I was drunk.” Logan caressed her back.

In response, Lola put her arms around his waist. “Alright, go to sleep, or else you’ll be having a bad hangover tomorrow.”

Logan rubbed his chin on her head. “Sure.” Then, he closed his eyes. He did drink a lot, but not that much compared to the last two times, and he found a way to get out quickly. The couple then slept in each other’s embrace until morning came.

Lola woke up first. She quickly straightened herself up and went to the room where Logan was supposed to spend the night. Last night, she didn’t switch rooms since Logan came in rather late, but she had to now. It’d be bad if her parents saw them sleeping together.

Logan woke up not long after she had left. Last night, he didn’t drink that much, and the wine was a great one, so he didn’t have a case of hangover. After he got out of bed, he washed himself up, then he went to the other room.

Lola was trying to sleep, but she woke up once Logan came in. “Why aren’t you sleeping in? We aren’t in a hurry to go back.” She grinned.

Logan quickly squeezed himself under the blanket and lay beside her without any feeling of shame. “I can’t sleep without you.”
