The trendy rooftop bar was alive with the hum of conversation and clinking of glasses as Veronica sauntered in, her arm hooked through Ethan's. She was a striking woman in her late forties, with a mane of fiery red hair and a confident stride that turned heads. Ethan, on the other hand, was a young college student, barely legal and visibly nervous in the sea of successful professionals that filled the space.
Veronica's group of female friends, all successful professionals in their 40s and 50s, were clustered together at a table, sipping cocktails and exchanging knowing glances. As Veronica approached, they turned to greet her with icy smiles, their eyes flicking over Ethan with barely concealed disdain.
"Ladies, this is Ethan," Veronica announced, her voice dripping with pride. "Ethan, these are my girls."
The women exchanged cool nods with Ethan, making no effort to hide their disapproval. Veronica noticed and tried to smooth things over. "Now, now, don't be like that. Ethan is a catch. He's smart, ambitious, and has a body to die for."
The women snickered, their eyes filled with skepticism. Claudia, a sharp-tongued lawyer, spoke up. "Ethan, what do you do for a living?"
Ethan stammered, "I'm still in college."
The women exchanged glances, their smirks growing wider. Veronica could see Ethan starting to tear up, his shoulders slumping in defeat. Her motherly instincts kicked in and she pulled him close, whispering sweet nothings in his ear.
Claudia made a cutting remark about Ethan's age, causing Veronica to snap. "Claudia, that's enough. You're just jealous because you can't keep a man."
The women were taken aback by Veronica's outburst. They tried to save face by making small talk, but the tension was palpable. Ethan started to feel more confident, thanks to Veronica's support. He started to flirt with the women, much to their annoyance.
Veronica playfully scolded Ethan, telling him to behave. But she couldn't help but be proud of his resilience. The women started to leave, one by one, Claudia shooting daggers at Ethan as she walked out.
Veronica and Ethan were alone on the rooftop. He thanked her for standing up for him and she kissed him deeply, promising to always protect him. Ethan felt a surge of desire for Veronica. He whispered in her ear that he wanted her right now.
Veronica smiled and led him to a secluded corner of the rooftop. She pushed him against the wall and unzipped his pants. Ethan moaned as Veronica took him in her mouth, teasing him with her tongue. Finally, Ethan couldn't take it anymore. He pulled Veronica up and they kissed passionately, losing themselves in the moment.
