think he had seduced her in order to get
her onboard for this mission. He didn’t know how to convince her
that wasn’t true. He hadn’t known her long but it hadn’t taken long
to develop deep feelings for her. He wanted forever and he hoped
this mission wouldn’t cost him his chance with her.
    He was in place in his big red suit with the
padded tummy a few minutes before Jen came by. As she came around
the corner she looked up and their eyes met. She smiled and still
managed to turn a bright shade of red. At least he knew she was
thinking of last night and it had made an impression on her. She
hurried into the building where she worked even though he knew she
had time to stop and talk had she wanted to. He thought she didn’t
know what to say or how he’d act now that they’d been together.
    If she was worried he no longer wanted her,
she needn’t be. He wanted her more than ever. He considered her his
and he pitied the man that would even think to lay a hand on her in
passion or as a threat. She didn’t know it yet, but they now
belonged to each other. He would kill for her or Danny. He would
find a way and he would show her that he would take care of her. He
had a line of people, mostly young women, waiting to take pictures
with Santa. How they had discovered he wasn’t an old man, he didn’t
know.
    He found he preferred the vomit, spit, and
pee of the youngsters to the females grabbing his crotch and trying
to kiss him. He looked at his watch and realized he had somehow
missed Jen leaving for lunch. He was probably fending off that one
girl that had tried to reach down his pants. He had a lot of
respect for the males who played Santa each season. He hadn’t
realized how hard a job it would actually be.
    He closed down for lunch to the complaints of
some of the females. Too bad, they could come back or not for all
he cared. Any money raised might be going to a charity but he’d
rather just donate himself than have his body abused any more. He
went to the café where he took a long lunch, ate a nice meal and
reflected upon how fucked up his existence had become in a
relatively short time. He made it back just in time to catch Jen
dragging a reluctant Danny in the door. She pretended not to see
him, but that wouldn’t work at the end of the day.
    He had every intention of closing early
enough that he would be waiting for her when she and Danny stepped
out the door. Let her try to ignore him then. Her attempt to
distance herself from him was doomed to fail. He thought of nothing
but their time together and what a nice family they’d make for the
rest of his day. As he’d planned, he closed up an hour before she
was due to get done and he waited around for her.
    Just as he planned, he caught her just as she
came out of the door. She looked nervous but that was probably
because she didn’t know how to address what had happened between
them or what it meant. Danny was trying to turn her around to head
to the corner Ros sat on. He turned just enough to see Ros and his
smile lit up his whole face. He tugged on his mama’s arm but she
seemed determined to run away. Ros wasn’t about to let that happen.
Even if he didn’t need to speak to her, he needed to be close to
her.
    “Ros, Ros!” Danny yelled. “Ros is right here,
Mama.”
    Jen turned reluctantly almost as if she were
fearful of what might come next. Ros smiled at her, his attitude
gentle. He had given them a lot of thought and he realized he loved
this female and her child. He would fight to keep them in his life
even if he had to fight her until she knew he loved her.
    “Ros, I didn’t see you there,” she said her
flushed red with the awkwardness of the moment.
    He let her get by with the white lie. “That’s
okay, you see me now. I’d like to take you and Danny out for a
meal. I need to talk to you about something. It’s important,” he
added the last part when he saw she was about to protest.
    Danny got excited. “Come on Mama. It’ll
