Tobias stood up and leaned close to Skylar. The pungent smell of smoke and alcohol instantly invaded her senses.

"Stop explaining yourself to me. I'll go settle the bill. Wait for me at the door. Are you full?"

"Yes, but isn't it the director's treat tonight? Why are you paying for it?"

"He can barely walk straight. How's he going to pay?"

Because the restaurant was located in a county town, the feast Daryl had ordered only totaled up to slightly more than three hundred.

As usual, Tobias took out his wallet and paid in cash.

Seeing this, Skylar had the urge to teach him how to pay via his phone.

It was very late by the time they got back. While Tobias wiped his body with cold water, Skylar leaned against the toilet door and asked, "When are you going back?"

"Why? Can't wait to see me leave?" Tobias threw a towel toward her, motioning for her to wipe his back.

Skylar walked in with the towel in hand. "That's not what I meant. I'm just worried that staying here too long will keep you from making money."

She gently wiped Tobias' broad back with the damp towel, the tattoo on his shoulder looked even more distinct this up close.

If he were to wear a white tank top during the summer season, his tattoo would be completely exposed. She thought of getting one as well, but she did not have the courage.

"Even if you keep me from making money, I'll still be able to take care of you. Stop worrying about these things. When will you finish shooting? Being apart isn't going to work," Tobias countered. "We can still text every day, no?"

"What's the point of texting when we can't see or touch each other?"

As Skylar wiped Tobias' back thoroughly, she noticed the long scratch marks on his back, reminding her of how passionate they were in bed last night. Her cheeks instantly flushed a crimson red while her hear galloped in her chest.

"I'm not sure yet. Soon, perhaps. I'll leave once we wrap up here. It probably won't be long until then."

"Good. You can actually go back every day since it's quite near."

Skylar put down the towel and placed her hands on the sink, listening to the cicadas outside.

"Alright, go undress. We only had two rounds last night and I want more. I'm going back tomorrow, so I won't be able to have my way with you for quite some time."

Even when talking about such a crude topic, he had no reservations when it comes to stating what he wanted.

"You're going back tomorrow? Why didn't you tell me that when I asked you just now?" Skylar's eyes dimmed, she was reluctant to part with him.

She did not even realize when she had become so attached to Tobias.

"It's my mother's sixtieth birthday the day after tomorrow, so I have to go back. She's been very disappointed in me lately. She'd feel very hurt if I don't celebrate with her."

Skylar would feel skittish whenever Tobias mentioned his family.

"Does that mean you'll also be seeing Tanya?"

"Yes, she'll be there. Why are you still dwelling on this matter? So what if I see her? It's not like I'm going to do anything." His gaze was calm, but there seemed to be a flicker of other emotions in them. After coming out of the toilet, Skylar sat on the bed and gripped the blanket.

Tobias walked toward her bare-chested and leaned down to kiss her forehead.

"Put your hands on the edge of the bed with your a** facing me."

Skylar was reluctant to be ordered around like a puppet when it came to sex.

She stayed motionless, completely not in the mood for a serious discussion anymore.

"Why are you upset?" Tobias had a little too much to drink earlier, so his breathing was slightly heavier than usual. Even after wiping his body, the smell of alcohol still remained.

"You always order me around! I don't like that feeling," Skylar said truthfully.

Tobias circled around Skylar and lay on the bed. "Then let's make it fair. I'll lie down on the bed and you can do whatever you want."

Skylar held her breath. "Are you sure?"

"Yes."

Skylar took out her lipstick and walked to Tobias with a mischievous grin on her face before lowering her head to draw a pig on his body. Tobias smiled dotingly at her. "That's it? I gave you a chance but you didn't use it wisely."
