The O'Brien Way by Carol Lynne

scratched the back of Jilly’s ear as he passed by her. “Okay, baby girl. You can say hello to Sean.”
    Jilly rose immediately and stuck her nose in Sean’s crotch. Sean’s eyes rounded as he tried to brush the dog’s attention from the erection pressing against his jeans. Moby sat on the couch and chuckled at Sean’s obvious discomfort. “She’s a girl who knows what she likes. I can’t really yell at her when I’d be doing the same thing if my mom wasn’t in the other room.”
    “Yeah, well, your nose is one thing, but I’ve never had a female anything so near my cock,” Sean said, finally breaking free of Jilly . “I should go in and say hi to
Virginia
.”
    Moby shook his head and reached for Sean’s hand. “She knows you’re here. She told me to entertain you while she finished dinner.”
    “But isn’t it kind of rude not to at least say hello?” Sean asked.
    “Sean says hello, Mom!” Moby shouted.
    “It’s good to have you here. Make yourself comfortable,”
Virginia
answered.
    “See?” With a wide smile, Moby pulled Sean onto the couch. He couldn’t resist sliding his hand across the front of Sean’s jeans.
    Sean’s eyebrows shot up and he moved Moby’s hand to his thigh. “Don’t get me in trouble.”
    Moby turned on the television before curling himself against Sean’s side. He pressed his lips to the side of Sean’s neck and peppered several kisses to the lightly freckled skin. “I wish we were alone.”
    “Yeah? What would you do?” Sean asked with a devilish glint in his eyes.
    “I’d pull that hard cock out of your pants, grease it up and straddle your lap. Then I’d slowly lower myself down its length, relishing the burn as it filled my ass.”
    Sean moaned and reached down to adjust his erection. “You’re killing me. Do you really want me to show up at your mom’s dinner table with cum-soaked jeans?”
    Moby’s lips travelled back up Sean’s neck to whisper in his ear. “You make me want you more than anyone I’ve ever known. Just a glance across the pub from you and I wanna strip down and present my ass for your enjoyment.” Since fucking before his shift several days earlier, Moby had thought of little else. What would it be like to have a man like Sean around all the time? Would he ever want to get out of bed? Moby doubted it. Even the smell of the man’s skin made Moby yearn for something he’d never had the nerve to hope for.
    Sean turned his head and caught Moby’s lower lip between his teeth. The bite was erotic as hell while still being playful. “Can you follow me back to my place after dinner, or will that cause problems for you?”
    Moby wasn’t sure how to answer. “I don’t know. I mean, I guess we can see how dinner goes, but I’m not sure I care how my mom feels about it anyway.”
    Sean shook his head. “I won’t be the one to come between the two of you. I’ve learned that lesson the hard way.”
    “Yeah, well I’ve had a lot of men in my bed, but you’re the first I want to wake up with every morning. I take care of Mom because it’s the right thing to do, but you’re the one who makes me happy. I won’t give that up for her.”
    “Supper’s ready,”
Virginia
said from the doorway.
    Moby stilled, wondering if she’d heard what he’d said. Did it matter? Despite the harsh sound of it, he’d meant every word. “Thanks, Mom.” He unwound his arms from around Sean’s neck. “Hope you’re hungry. My mom makes the best fried chicken in the state.”
    Sean chuckled and stood. “I won’t tell Jay you said that.”
    Moby shrugged and got to his feet. “Don’t worry about it. I’ve already told him.”

    Sean wiped his mouth and set his napkin on the table. “ Mmm mmm mmm . Thank you for the fabulous dinner, Mrs. Haines. Moby was right. That’s the best fried chicken I’ve ever eaten.”
    Virginia
blushed. “You’re welcome. I may not be able to do much, but cooking’s always been something I’ve
