Woot woot!
Although attempting not to show it too much outwardly, Ben was happy to have Katie to talk to again. Things had been weird since his dad had told Katie that she wasn’t allowed to have sex with him. “Him” being Ben, not his dad, of course. This was something that hadn’t really ever come up between them. At least not as far as the two of them having sex... With each other... Way to make things weird, dad. So the fact that she was coming over for advice or venting or whatever was great.
Ben had barely answered her last text before he heard the knock on the door. That said, he had to make a run for it before someone else got to the door. It was almost like a game, he supposed. But in a house with so many people, your guest could easily be pulled away into the wrong direction.
Success! He made it to the door before anyone else, without tripping over anything, and flung it open, “Wow, that was fast!”
