“Are you okay there, little momma?” I glance down at her plate, wondering why she isn’t eating.

Hell, my cock gets as riled up as when she was playing footsie. I wish now, that I hadn’t taken the job in DC. “I’ve been fucking miserable without you. I figure I can come to New York every few weeks. They give me four days off after working ten.”
“I would really like that.” She reaches across the table, beautiful eyes all on me, and suddenly I realize, I am in love.

She breaks into a big smile. “Wow. That’s too bad.”
“Yeah, right?”
