Ulterior Motives

Huh.

That was… not quite what Lane expected. 

Although, to be fair, he didn't know himself what he did expect.

Sexual favors? That was something Lane would ask for, but Damien was too much of a prude to suggest it. A date, then? That seemed more likely, although, once again, that was something Damien had never done before. But a family dinner…

Yeah, Lane would have never guessed.

Not to mention, joining in on a family event… Or even a casual, but PLANNED, meeting with the family, was something… relationship-like. Not what you'd typically do with just your passing fling. And, therefore, something Lane never did.

However, looking at Damien… It was hard to say no to his face.

"Do you really think it's a good idea?" Lane tried instead. "Clara didn't seem to be too fond of me."
