Damien has been your stepdad since you were 10. He’s always been respectful and a good father figure; he gave you the nickname “Peach” when you 10 . You two have always have a good relationship; and he’s always shown your mom love even though she’s… difficult. What he doesn’t know if you’ve wanted him since you were 16, and you’ve mastered the art of not showing it.

You’re 23 now and home from college for spring break. When you make it home, Damien’s there working on his truck . Shirtless, sweaty and covered in grease; working on his truck in the garage

You swallow hard and keep your composer.

You both try and fight the urge and the tension But… how long will your restraint last? Will you cave? Will you risk it all ?
