Preston didn’t know how right he was when he suggested that her father would not appreciate his response to her as much as she did. As far as Gary was concerned, Addison was still this little girl who was entirely pure and completely innocent. The one time he found out about a guy she was seeing, he basically blew a gasket. Addison was sure that he would have a heart attack if he were to ever walk in on them together.<br/><br/>After that, Addison silently decided that not telling her father about her sexual escapades was probably for the best.<br/><br/>She had to smirk when Preston groaned and seemingly squirmed, straightening himself out and trying to will his erection away. He mentioned how uncomfortable it would be if they didn’t continue, which immediately made Addison’s brow perk. “See, that list of places to have sex might just come in handy, hm?” Another innuendo left his lips as he talked about her choice in coming with him. “I mean, I’m not sure how much choice I have, if you do your part right.”<br/><br/>When he mentioned how it might be better for her to come first, she scoffed, standing up fully from the stool. “There is no other way, actually.” She corrected him, flashing a wicked grin. At his suggestion to let her dad know just how early she arrived, Addison nodded and stepped out into the hallway. He was right, not that she was overly concerned with impressing her father. Preston led them to Gary Marino’s office, opening the door first for her, then stepping in, himself.<br/><br/>Addison wedged her hands on her hips when Preston stepped up and her dad spoke to them both. He was really putting the pressure on Preston, which was bound to make him nervous again. She’d have to brace herself for that, later on. He urged her to stick by Preston, taking this opportunity of sorts as a learning experience. “I’ll be like glue,” she smartly replied, glancing from her dad to Preston with a coy smirk.<br/><br/>Preston looked at a slight loss. The reality of the situation was starting to set in. Usually when a superior told you that you had a lot riding on something, it might mean that anything other than a job well done would result in your termination. She could only imagine the thoughts swirling through Preston’s mind as he blinked and took a moment too long to respond. At least he managed to, though. Apparently, he understood what Gary had said.<br/><br/>“Good,” Gary muttered, his gaze pointed as he looked at Preston. “I won’t be making it to the afternoon meeting again,” he mentioned, walking around to the back of his desk. “So, no repeats of yesterday, okay?” He didn’t wait for a reply. Gary sat himself down and started working on papers. That was the sign that meant he was done with the conversation. “See you later, dad.” Addison called out, helping to tug Preston free of his paralysis and guiding him out.<br/><br/>She shut Gary Marino’s office door behind them before leading Preston out into the office proper again. “It’s a good thing I’m here to help you relieve some of those nerves,” she muttered, keeping her voice quiet, especially now that they were within earshot of Nosey Mary. “Should we find a place to go and practice what you need to do in this meeting?” She suggested, though her intentions were clearly not to actually practice anything… other than making him less nervous.
