Tim was not in a good mood. He was regretting not leaving earlier before they had dinner. If he had, he wouldn't have had to suffer through Ginny's infectious laugh and all those men that seemed as affected by her as he was.
Even as they all sat at their tables, they still kept throwing their greedy eyes towards their table. Even his attempt to make them give up when he leaned too close to her, had not worked. It was like she was a magnet and the were all iron, they couldn't resist.
How can one woman have such an effect on men while still acting innocent, was beyond him. It was either she was professionally trained or she had a lot of experience in her field of work. It was impossible, in his books, for someone to attract so much attention without knowing. In his eyes, no woman was that innocent. Especially as innocent as Ginny seemed to be.
Tim unlocked the door with his password with a smirk, he could hear Ginny rushing towards him. He walked in and waited with the door open for her. He watched as she stumbled trying to get away from the dogs she could here barking but can't see. She rushed to the door and stopped, not entering the house.
"What are you waiting for? An invitation? Are you a vampire?"
"I... I-I'm..." Ginny swallowed nervously. The thought of being bitten by dogs was scary but so was her father finding out, he always has a way of finding out, that she had been to a man's house. It wouldn't matter if nothing happened, which she was sure wouldn't because Tim had made sure she understand that, her father will still do his worst. She was in a bind, nothing was favorable. It was either dogs or her father.
Tim clenched his jaw, she wasn't coming in. She was irritating him as the seconds ticked by while she hesitated and fidgeted in place. He realized, it didn't matter what this woman would ever do, she will always irritate him. She didn't want to come into his house but he brought her without consulting her. He had no idea why he brought her to his place. His sacred place. He has lost his mind.
Ginny looked behind her to see if any dogs were in sight yet. Relieved that there weren't any, she said to Tim, "If you can point me in the right direction, I will go to my sister's place by myself. I have bothered you enough. Please, Mr. Timini."
"Get in here."
'There must be something wrong with him.' thought Ginny.
After a few more seconds of hesitating, Tim pull her in without warning. Ginny was taken by surprise, her body wasn't ready and one of her legs couldn't keep up in time. She went crushing into Tim and for a split second, he stood as sold as a bolder then suddenly he fell, pulling her with him to the floor.
Dead silence followed as they stared at each other. Ginny's shock was all over her expression but Tim's hooded eyes and straight face was not giving anything away.
The door made a click sound as it closed on it's on, startling Ginny. She quickly got her brain working again, "So sorry, Mr. Tim. Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Tim's arms were still firmly grasping the slop of her back. His fingertips were itching to go lower, to grasp the fleshy part of her they could almost feel. Though, Ginny was trying to stand, he didn't let her. He closed his eyes and groaned painfully. He could feel all of her front and it was so delicious. Falling on purpose was almost worth it.
Panicking, Ginny tried harder to get up but Tim's hold was preventing her from moving away. "Mr. Tim? Please let go so that I can get off."
Tim didn't want to let go but he did, feeling a painful loss immediately. He groaned again as he turned on the floor making Ginny panick even more.
"Did you hurt your back? Should I get you an ice pack or menthol rub? Where's the pain coming from?"
Tim was getting ideas he shouldn't be getting with a pretending innocent woman. At least he can keep her around till morning if he played along. He couldn't believe he was working this hard for a woman to stay in his place. It was all Jack's fault.
Gin convinced him to get up and go lie down on the couch. She got an ice pack, helped him out of his suit jacket as gently as she could and applied the icepack where he told her the pain was.
"Is the pain bearable? Do you need to go to the hospital? Or a painkiller?" Even though he wasn't complaining, Gin was still not convinced he was okay. She had seen some people die silently at the hospital while she helped out the doctors or nurses. She had come to appreciate the patience who complained about everything even the not so reasonable. She hoped to be a nurse one day, if her father would allow her.
Tim enjoyed her fussing over him, "A massage will help."
Ginny swallowed, she can't touch a man's body too much like that, "I'm not really good at those, maybe we can..."
Tim groaned, "You don't have to." He has realized his groans work like majic. She sprang into action immediately pressing lightly on his clothed body. The electric bolts shooting all over his body from her touch was too much. "How old are you," he asked , curious.
"I'm eighteen," she replied without thinking much of it.
"From the way you got your whole seduction act on, I wouldn't have guessed you are this young. You must have been trained young, huh?" He couldn't help it.
Ginny's face contorted, "I didn't do anything to seduce anyone. I haven't even-even-"
"Save it! You can't fool me anyway. I know that you and your sister are professionals. Isn't that why Jack has been showering her with gifts? If you want the same with me, you will have to work harder than your sister did with my friend."
Her hands froze at his hush words, "My sister isn't that kind of person. She really love your friend and she has never been with a man before. Don't say things like that about her. If Jack bought her those things, it's because he wanted to not because she was exchanging it with her body," there was a little edge in her tone.
Tim ground his teeth, irritated, "Whatever you say isn't going to convince me from what I can see. Besides, your sister is holding back 'the cookie' so that she can build the suspense and milk him dry while at it. You think I don't know how you all work?...But I have to admit, I'm a man and I am tempted by all you're doing. Maybe if you keep at it..." he turned and looked at her with a smirk, "...I will give in."
"What!" she exclaimed, withdrawing her hands and moving back like she had been burned... I don't think you should be twisting your back like that right now," she said softly, defeated. Tim sprang up from the couch like he hadn't been groaning a few minutes ago. That's when it dawned on her, he was acting just like he thinks she is. She sighed, "I see."
Tim smirked as he left her on the couch and went to the bedroom.
Ginny watched him leave, stood and left the house without a word. His words had hurt her more than he would ever know. It was one thing to be misunderstood, it was another when a person degrades your loved one.
Talking only works if someone is listening, in this case, Tim regarded all her words as lies so it was useless to even try and explain anything further.
'Why did he even bring me here anyway?!' she thought as she tip toed to the gate, afraid of the dogs.
