It was finally Friday, and Timothy Avers could barely suppress cheering as he walked down the steps of his workplace and headed for his car. Another long, frustrating week of dealing with people's silly problems and questions, most of which any reasonably intelligent person could figure out on their own in about five minutes.
But it was over, for now, and he couldn't wait to get home and cleaned up. Fridays were gaming night over at the Duncan household, where the group that had known each other since highschool would gather for the weekly DnD game. At times Timothy mused on just how silly it sounded, a bunch of men in their late thirties still getting together every week (or almost every week, what with their real lives intruding as real lives were wont to do) to play a game. That they could usually stay up all night and into the early morning stood testament to their bond and love of playing.
Timothy would take a change of clothes with him, as usual since he often ended up crashing on the couch. He was one of the only people in the group who hadn't settled down yet. He dated, sure, but still hadn't found "the ONE", and at this point he wasn't expecting to.
Thoughts of gaming and staying the night inevitably slid to thoughts of Jonathan Duncan's daughter, Olivia. Timothy always felt guilty for thinking about her, because when he did his thoughts always went in directions that were, to say the least, improper, especially since she was the daughter of his best friend. That she was also, what, sixteen now? That just made it worse. But he his mind kept returning to her, to her slender body...
With a shake of his head Timothy tried to stop his mind from following that path. This was the girl that had sat in his lap when she was younger while the group played, who he had helped with her homework when her father was too busy at his own job. Thinking of her like that... it was disgusting...
...wasn't it?
