He bobbed his head up and down and I sighed. “Go potty, then climb in the big bed.”
Felix slid off Stoney’s lap and closed himself into the bathroom.
“Didn’t think the first time we slept together, we’d have a chaperone,” I complained.
Stoney grinned, kissing me quickly. “Our time will come.”
“You’re more patient than me.”
“Baby, this is all on your timetable. You name the time and place and I’m there.”
“Tuesday,” I said. “Luca’s taking Felix overnight.”
“No shit?”
“No shit,” I whispered.
He grinned. “I’ll be at your place at five.”
“I won’t be home until five-thirty.”
“Give me a key and I’ll cook.”
I bit my lip. “Okay.”
He kissed me again, and once Felix was ready, we piled into the huge bed and slept like the dead.

Tuesday, I walked intomy house and smelled something heavenly. I made a mental note to find a way to have Stoney cook for me every night if I was going to come home to this. “Honey, I’m home,” I said in a singsong voice as I kicked off my shoes.
He appeared in the archway between the foyer and the family room, grinning. “Hey, beautiful.”
“Hi.” I raised my head and he kissed me deeply, but quickly. “Smells amazing.”
“Hope you like ribeye.”
“I love ribeye.”
“Should be ready in twenty.”
I bit my lip. “Can the process be paused?”
“Yeah, why?”
“Why do you think?” I challenged.
“Meet you upstairs,” he said, and I made a run for my room while he turned everything off in the kitchen.
I cleaned up in the bathroom quickly, stripping down to my bra and panties, and pulling my robe on over the top.
“Babe?”
“Here,” I said, stepping back into my bedroom. “Hi.”
“Hey.” He grinned, reaching for my sash and tugging on it. “Fuck. You are stunning.”
I slid my hands under his shirt. “I want this off.”
