Knock first

You decide and knock quietly on her door. You hear nothing change for ten seconds, so knock again a little louder. You can hear a tiny gasp inside and bed springs creaking.

The door cracks open, and you see Loretta's face peeking out from behind the door. The shoulder you can see is bare, and she has a quizzical look on her face. "Yes?"

You take a deep breath and say, "Do you find me attractive?"

She grins a little and says, "Why, yes, I do. But why do you want to know?"

"Well, I find you very attractive and sexy. Your father thinks he's been too protective of you these last few years. He said I should come back inside and find a warm bed. Yours, if you're willing." You look hopefully at her.

"He did?!" she asks incredulously. "Where's he now?"

"Out for a long walk. He said he may not be back until morning." You are jittery in the belly and practically bouncing on your toes.
