I took a long drag of my cigarette and rubbed my eyes as I turned a corner. My headlights struggled against the darkness permeating the narrow country lanes as I drove around searching for my niece.
Well, my wife's niece. I'd pretty much washed my hands of that royal pain in the ass.
Hannah had come to live with us a few months prior. Her mother had finally cracked after years of dealing with Hannah's erratic, borderline insane, bullshit behaviour. My wife, being the great person she is, begged me to let her stay in our guest room. I agreed, thinking that we could maybe provide a bit of stability.
Christ, was I wrong. She'd almost immediately started helping herself to my booze, stealing my cigarettes, I was fairly sure she'd taken some twenties from my wallet. I'd had to throw several gormless idiots out of my house that were supposedly her new "friends" but looked like they'd strolled in straight from a crackhouse.
And, yet again, she'd fucked off to go clubbing with people she barely knew, not bothering to let us know, ignoring our calls, no doubt intending to stroll in sometime tomorrow. My wife, beside herself, woke me up and begged me to go and find her.
So there I was, driving aimlessly between home and town in my boxers and a gym shirt after rolling out of bed at dumbass o'clock in the morning. I was getting steadily more pissed off as the minutes went by, knowing I'd be up for work at 6am.
I came to town and headed to a bar I knew she liked. Before I got there, I lucked across her walking in the other direction.
She was nineteen, fairly short, with long chestnut hair, wearing a fabric dress that was pulled so tight over her chest that you could see her bra. The dress barely reached the middle of her thighs, fitting tightly over her butt. She was laughing without a care in the world, walking arm in arm with a young guy around her age.
I rolled down the window as I pulled up next to them. "Hannah, get in the damn car," I growled.
Her face twisted in irritation as she saw me. "For fuck's sake. Leave me alone, I'm fine. I'm staying with Rob tonight," she said, indicating the guy.
I slammed the handbrake up and got out of the car. "The fuck you are. Get in the car."
She grabbed the guy's arm and glared at me. "Fuck off, Adam. I'm not going anywhere with you."
"Lisa wants you home. So shut up and get in the car," I spat, anger brewing in my chest. I reached out to grab her arm, but the guy shoved my hand out the way.
He puffed out his chest and began squaring up to me. "She told you to fuck off, man. So maybe you should fuck off."
His cheeks reddened as I burst out laughing. It might've been an impressive display if he were 100lbs heavier with more than three hairs on his chin. I was by no means a fighter or a particularly violent guy, but I had fifteen years, 100lbs, and about 7 inches on him, not to mention five years in the military.
"Leave it alone, bud. She's coming home." I reached for her again, only for him to shove my arm for a second time. A moment later he was falling to the floor, curling over, after my fist had found his gut.
"What the fuck, you psycho!" Hannah screeched as she crouched down to attend to him.
"He'll be fine. We're leaving." She struggled in vain as I dragged her into the passenger side of the car, leaving the guy on the floor. I slammed the door shut, got in, and spun around to head home.
I pointedly ignored Hannah's rants and threats for about fifteen minutes, until I pulled up by a field a mile or so from home. By this point she'd settled into a sullen silence, so I switched off the ignition and lit another cigarette.
"Hannah, you-," I began.
She cut me off. "Fuck off, psycho. Soon as we're home I'm calling the police, they're gonna fucking lock you up," she yelled at me. I watched her silently as she continued shouting the odds, before she finally trailed off.
"Finished?" I asked. She just glared at me. "Good. You're Lisa's family. She loves you. I, however, care about you only so far as your safety makes my wife happy. If you wanna go out and act like a fucking moron, that's your business." She opened her mouth to voice some angry retort but I ploughed on. "Just don't make it my issue. Send her a text or something, anything, to let her know you aren't facedown in a ditch, and I won't have to come looking for you."
"Lisa's a cunt. So are you." She opened the door and climbed out. I took a long drag and flicked the cig away as I got out aswell. The anger in my chest was roaring, burning hotter than I'd ever felt it. She began marching toward the field, but I reached her within seconds and grabbed her arm, hard.
I roughly spun her around and pulled her toward me, pressing her body against mine. Her face was inches from my own. "Don't talk shit about Lisa in front of me."
"Or what? What are you gonna do?" She sneered at me for a few moments. "You gonna kick me out? We both know Lisa will side with me. Especially when I tell her about this." She glanced down.
I realised that her arm was sandwiched between us, her hand pressing into my slowly stiffening cock. She gripped her shaft through the boxers and gave it a squeeze. I hurriedly let her go and she moved back a step. She grinned.
"I can't wait to tell her about how quickly you started getting hard just from touching my arm." She laughed scornfully. "I bet you think about me all the time. You wanna fuck me, that it?"
