Crazy was one word that really covered a lot of ground when it came to Bella's father. He was so desperate for them to sleep together and Ash only had to assume it was to ensure something. Like if Ash somehow got Bella pregnant or was her first, it would magically going to make things work out. He shrugged his shoulders, "So long as I remain virile and you fertile, it'll be enough of a thing for them. But sex is supposed to be fun, not a chore."
And this felt like a chore. Or that Bella's dad was secretly getting off on the idea that his daughter was sleeping with Ash.
"Well, it's not like you're going to drop your panties now for us to get it over with," Ash said, "and I don't have sex out of duty. At least, I'm going to find some enjoyment out of it and you don't seem like you'd enjoy it out of principle."
