SEDUCING MY EX’S FATHER IN LAW - Season 5 Episode 39

Judy’s POV

The fact that his mom and Daisy showed up at the fair shouldn’t have surprised me. I should have known that they would have caught wind when I was on a date with Gavin and where we were. I should have known they would have followed us here.

The memory of my last encounter with them invaded my head and it wasn’t something I wanted to share with Gavin, but he found a way to convince me otherwise. He got the information out of me with ease. I felt a little better after talking it out with Gavin, but there was still a lingering doubt in the back of my head that his mother planted. I honestly didn’t like the fact that she didn’t like me….. not that it mattered or anything. It’s not like Gavin and I were actually together….. we had a sexual relationship and that was as far as it was going. However, after our incredible date tonight, there was a part of me that had a small sliver of hope that maybe this wasn’t just about sex. Maybe this was more… maybe he wanted more.

The question was, did I want more?

“What’s going through your mind?” Gavin asked as he took my hand and guided me away from the dancing crowd and the loud music playing in the center of the fair.

“Nothing,” I lied, nibbling on my lower lip with my head turned away from him. My eyes scanned the area until they landed on a cotton candy and popcorn vendor. “Want some cotton candy?” I asked him, desperate to change the subject.

He raised his brows as he looked down at me.

“Cotton Candy?” He asked. “Is that fluffy sugar?”

I raised my brows right back at him.

“Don’t tell me you’ve never had cotton candy,” I said, astonished, though I shouldn’t have been surprised by that either. There were a lot of things he had never done before tonight and cotton candy appeared to be one of them.

“Do I look like I’ve eaten cotton candy in my past?” He asked, smirking. No, you do not,” I admit, a smirk on my own lips. bulled his hand

towards the cotton candy stand. “Come on…”

We order a cotton candy to share as we walk towards the fireworks show. It was going to start soon, and the crowd was already gathering to find the best spots to see them.

I took a bit of cotton candy and brought it to Gavin’s lips.

“Try it,” I demanded. He furrowed his brows at the sugary treat before he parted his lips allowing me to put the candy on his tongue.

He looked surprised as he closed his mouth.

“It melted on my tongue,” he told me as he smacked his lips, making me chuckle as I ate some cotton candy too.

“Do you like it?” I asked him.

“It’s sweet, but oddly enough it’s tasty,” he admitted.

I laughed at his phrasing and fed him more cotton candy.

We finally reached the fireworks show, and I was surprised that Gavin had a reserved spot towards the front where we could literally see everything. I also wasn’t surprised that his mother and Daisy were nearby as well. When they saw us, his mom’s eyes narrowed in our direction.

“Is that cotton candy?” she asked, disgust clear on her face. “Ugh, Gavin. You

know better than to eat that garbage.”

Gavin’s eyes narrowed.

“I am an adult man… I can eat whatever I please and spend my time with

whoever I want,” he said coldly.

She folded her arms across her chest, a scowl on her face.

“What happened to you? You used to be smarter than this…” she said, her eyes darting to me.

A low growl escaped Gavin’s throat.

“Don’t look at her. This has nothing to do with her,” he said, his tone low and dangerous. “Cornering her at the restaurant was wrong and what you said to her was even worse. We are going to discuss this later swnovel

His mother’s eyes turned to slits, and she scowled again, her top lip curling up in disgust.

“So, she told you what was said,” she said coolly. “We didn’t say anything that wasn’t true. No need to overreact.”

“Overreact??” He said through his teeth.

I put my hand on his arm, trying to calm him.

“It’s okay,” I said softly. “I just want to watch the fireworks, that’s all.”

His eyes narrowed at me and his tone was low as he said, “My mother doesn’t get

to speak to you like that.”

It was sweet of him to care, but it wasn’t really helping much as of right now. It seemed only to be making things even worse.

The fireworks started, stopping any further conversation, much to my relief. It was a beautiful display, and it took my breath away. At one point, Gavin boldly put his arm around my shoulders and pulled me intohim, gaining the attention of his mother and Daisy. I knew he was only doing this to get back at them for being in our business. swnovel

By the time the show was over, I was utterly exhausted and about ready to return home and get some sleep. He took my hand and helped me stand up from the spot we had occupied during the fireworks show.
