“Morg, the kids are napping. You can swear right now.” Cece taps Morgan’s hand and offers her a warm smile.
“No, it’s okay. It’s good practice for when Clay and I will finally get pregnant,” she says with a disheartened tight smile.
Aubrey places her hand on Morgan’s arm and squeezes lightly. “It will happen; you can’t lose hope,” she tells her reassuringly.
“I know… It just sucks that it’s taking so long to happen.” Her voice cracks as her eyes gloss over.Oh, Morgan…
Wanting to change her current mindset, I throw out an idea that’s been simmering in my mind. “Morg, I’m predicting that this will be your last summer without a child, so let’s make it a crazy one. Let’s all go on vacation together, the whole gang. Wecould rent a yacht or a private island for a week or two, with the kids, of course. It will be so fun! What do you guys say?!”
I’m practically bouncing with excitement at the prospect of our vacation trip. Morg and Cece both join in my excitement as we stand from our stools and start jumping in a group. While Ronnie just stares at us with a bright grin plastered on her face, and Aubrey shakes her head while smirking.
“It’s a plan. We’ll get the boys on board, and you two make sure to have the time off. We’ll come back during the month with a date so we can book it in advance,” Cecilia says, looking at everyone, but mostly Ronnie and Aubrey.
~ Three Days Later ~
“RAAARRR, RAAAAAAARRRR!!!”
I giggle at the sound and look back through my phone at Greyson’s beautiful face. “She’s been doing that all day. Our little flower has turned into a dinosaur.”
“Duh, duh, doo, buhhh, ehhh, rah, DOOOO, RAAARR!”
Greyson throws his head back, a deep laugh filtering through the speaker. “Wow, she’s really testing her vocals.”
“Oh, that she is. It’s adorable, except when I’m trying to put her to sleep and she decides it’s roaring time.” I smile at the pretty roaring lady who’s playing with her blocks on the floor.
“I can imagine. I’m glad you called. I miss you guys.”
I turn back to the phone with an adoring smile. “We miss you, too. I can’t wait for you to come home tomorrow. The house feels lonely without you. You know I’ve been having to drink two coffees every morning because it feels weird drinking mine alone.”
“You have not.” He chuckles and lies back in his bed with his arm folded behind his head while the other holds the phone, his nude chest on full display. I feel myself growing hot as I ogle his perfectly sculpted, tatted torso. “Woman. You done checking me out?”
When my eyes flick back to his, he has a devilish smirk on his face, and his tongue peeks out to wet his lips.Oh, my wolf is being naughty again.
“Behave, Wolf.” I narrow my eyes. “And I was not checking you out, simply observing.” I look at the ends of my hair, acting indifferent.
“Sure, that explains why you got that hungry look in your eyes. Were you picturing eating my body? You got a little drool right there in the corner.” He points to the side of my mouth.
I gasp and sit up straight. “I do not!” I wipe the side of my mouth just to make sure, making Grey belly laugh on his end. “And yes, I have been drinking two coffees every morning, so I won’t be held responsible for all the crazy things I do while over-caffeinated. That’s on you, handsome.”
“You know what else I wish was on me right now?” he says with a mischievous grin.
“What?”
“You, doing that sexy bunny bounce on my cock with your perky tits in my face.”
“GREYSON!” My face flushes red as I look over at Little Tulip, who’s completely ignorant of the filthy words her father just spoke. “No filthy language in front of the little one,” I rebuke him, then lower my voice and lean into the phone. “Butcall me later tonight after your game so we can resume this conversation,” I wink.
“That was already the plan.” He smiles, then looks up on his phone and sighs. “I gotta get ready. Kiss Buttercup for me, and I’ll call you later. I miss you, Bunny.”
“I miss you too, and I will. Good luck at the game.” I blow him a kiss and hang up. I press my phone to my chest and throw myself down on the couch, contentment and thrill buzzing through my body.
~ The Next Day~
“This little bunny loves to smell cute little flowers. Yes, she does.”
I bring my nose down to Gracie’s neck and sniff her in an exaggerated way while she squeals and giggles as she lies on her back on the floor. Then I pretend to nibble at her skin while she pushes me away with her hands.
She’s wearing a long-sleeved green dress with white daisies all over and a headband with daisies on it as well. While I’m wearing a gray camisole with gray leggings, a pink tutu, and bunny ears. I also painted on a nose and whiskers, giving the full bunny effect for our little pretend game.
