“Keep doing what we’re doing. I want to be with you, learn about you, date you. I haven’t done this before.” She chewed on her lip nervously, as if that wasn’t going to be okay with me. Like it wasn’t enough.
“Of course. I’m happy you’re giving this a shot at all.” I reached over and touched her hand, my thumb rubbing little circles over her soft skin.
“Good.” She smiled a little and intertwined my fingers with hers.
We were staying as we were, and that gave me the chance to make myself that indispensable person in her life…the one she couldn’t imagine living without.
“What time are you going to the station?”
“In an hour. The lawyer should be there and have had time to talk to Robert. You staying?” She removed her hand from mine and got up to put her cup in the sink.
“Yeah, I’ve got to take care of some business stuff today. So, I’ll be around here.”
It was great running a business, but sometimes it sucked. Like the business part of it.
My eyes were on her hips as she swayed over to me and leaned down to give me a soft kiss.
“Thanks for this morning,” she purred as I wrapped my hand around her neck and held her lips close to mine.
“We should do it again sometime…maybe sans clothing?”
She giggled for a moment before our lips met in the middle and gave me a taste of what was to come.
