crazy. I tried going to The Club and picking up girls, but every time I was almost there, Lillian's face would show up in my mind and I would feel like a cheating bastard. It wasn't supposed to be like that. Not at all. I was getting pissier with each passing day.
    I had made up my mind to let her be the initiator of anything physical between us. I didn't want to push my luck. She hugged a lot, but that was about it. And each time she did it this indescribable feeling would come to my gut and I didn't know what to do about it. It felt like I was getting warm, without really getting 'hot and bothered', all because of a stupid hug. What the hell did that mean?
    Finally she did kiss me… Well, she wanted to, but wasn't going to do it so I kissed her. Holy hell, she must have had a lot of experience because it was pretty good for a kiss. I'm more for the touching of other body parts and the main act itself, but the kiss had me about going in my swim trunks. Believe me, I am not easy to please- so that should tell you something.
    And it was so easy to pretend to be this happy good guy who finally got his girl. I have to admit, even though I don't like it, I was happy to know that she was mine alone. No, happy wasn't really it, more like… Smug. I'm a cocky bastard and that just boosted my ego a lot more. I mean , I got the girl who never dates or sleeps around, how good am I?
    A week after she kissed me we were trying to plan on doing something. I was so bored of the town that I thought I might kill myself. We had gone almost everywhere in the town. "Let's go to the city, you've never been there before," I suggested, truly hoping she would say yes. I missed the night life and the busyness.
    "I can ask my dad," she said nervously. The girl was kept under lock and key. It drove me insane. I am one who needs my freedom, and that she had to go asking daddy for anything really pissed me off. But I had to stay in their good graces. I still didn't have my plan fully figured out to get rid of them, but I did have a few ideas, and they would take time. I had gotten good at waiting over the years, so it wasn't too much of a hassle.
    The only negative part was being in the room with Delilah. I respected Isaiah, which was something I never thought I would do. But his stupid wife was the one who killed my father. I couldn't look past that , I didn't even try .
    "I can talk to him if you want, I mean I'm pretty sure he trusts me now," I said to her. She smiled at me, damn she had a beautiful smile.
    "That'd be great. He should be home soon, we can ask him then," she said. At that time the door opened and Isaiah walked through.
    "Hey babe," he said to Lillian, he nodded to me, "Decklin," he said with warmth in his eyes. I knew that he looked at me like a son because I didn't have any parents. I didn't want his pity though. If it weren't for his wife I wouldn't be in that situation.
    "Daddy," Lillian started out in a small voice. I bit back a smile, she had the big eyes going on and was looking at her dad with a small smile. He sighed.
    "Oh great, what does she want?" He asked, looking to me and rolling his eyes. Before Lillian could speak again I stepped in.
    "Sir, I would like to take your daughter to the city with me, just for the night. I will watch over her, I won't let anything happen to her," I said, wrapping my arm around her waist, looking Isaiah straight in the eye.
    "Boy, you don't even know how to shoot a gun, how could you protect her?" He asked, crossing his arms.
    "He does know how to dad. He didn't want to show me up the first time we really hung out. But he's really good. I've been with him since, he can almost outshoot me," she stuck up for me.
    "I also have had defense training. When you live by yourself with really no family, you have to know how to protect yourself," I told him. He glared at me.
    "What do you have planned?" He asked suspiciously.
    "I'm not going to take advantage of her, if that's what you're worried about,
