She wandered to him, saying, “I’ll get on that later.”
He bet she would.
Mo went back to his laptop to log in to his bank.
Lottie stopped at his side.
“Mo?”she called.
He lifted his eyes to her.
“I will never, not ever, treat you like shit,” shewhispered.
“I know, sweetheart,” he whispered back.
They shared their own moment of solidarity.
“Pay your bills, honey,” she urged.“We need to go get somelunch and carb up for our fuck-a-thon.”
Mo decided right then they were having Italian for lunch.
He did this grinning at her.
Then he paid his bills.
They were necking, Lottie sitting on his dick in hislap.
Mo was sitting up, his arms curled around her, his legsstraight, her legs curled around his hips, her fingers trailing over the skinon his skull.
When his cock lost it, and her, they kept necking.
It was a while after that when he lifted her up and set heron her side on the bed, bent in and kissed her chest, then threw the coversover her and left her there to go deal with the condom.
They’dcarbedup on pasta with theaddition of a salad (Lottie eating a lot of the last, a little of the first) ata restaurant down the street from his house.
And since Lottie didn’t want to waste time commencing theirfuck-a-thon (and Mo didn’t either), they’d walked back to his place and spentthe rest of the afternoon doing that.
She hadn’t done a deep dive into his psyche about why he putup with the likes of Tammy.
Then again, he suspected she knew she’d already handledthat.
He rejoined her in his bed, pulled the covers over them,curled her in his arms and started making out with her again.
His bed had definitely been broken in.
And there’d been some action, if not the full go, in hershower that morning.
So that left her couch in front of her TV and finishing upwhat they started in the shower and he could dream up new places to have her.
His couch was going to be one.
The island too.
And her kitchen counter.
And the couch he’d slept on without her for a week.
These thoughts on his mind, Lottie’s taste in his mouth, Mobroke the kiss, trailed his lips to her ear and asked, “You good?”
