"This tree?" I asked Matt in my most serious voice as I stood beside the tall fir he had chosen. "You're certain?"

Matt, standing beside the tree, nodded with absolute conviction. "Absolutely."

I couldn't help but be bemused by the way he suddenly whipped out his phone and started recording as I began to cut the tree.

The whirring sound of the chainsaw filled the forest, and I couldn't help but grin, even as I worked, knowing that Matt was capturing the moment.

After finishing the task, we stowed the tree in the back of my truck. As I turned to Matt, I noticed the chill in the air.

"It's getting cold," I said, concerned.

The last thing I wanted was for Matt to freeze.

I opened the truck door, offering him a warm escape from the cold.

But as he climbed inside, I couldn't help but notice a hint of disappointment on his face, and it made me wonder what was running through his mind.

I drove him back to his apartment, the silence in the truck palpable. But parting ways was the last thing on my mind.

As I pulled up in front of Matt's apartment building, a voice in my head reminded me that it was okay to take things slow.

Matt had recently gone through a breakup, and I still wasn’t completely over Gary and Ben’s betrayal.

Matt and I needed time to heal and adjust. The evening had been a step in the right direction, but we couldn't just blindly rush this.

At least that was what I kept reminding myself each time I looked at Matt.

I kept picturing him, naked and disheveled in my bed, crooking a finger at me. I tried pushing the distracting images away.

We climbed out of the truck, and turned our attention to the task at hand.

Matt and I discovered that the tree we had chosen wouldn't fit in the building's elevator, which meant we had to haul it up several flights of stairs.

Once we reached Matt's floor, I noticed a change in his expression. He wore a guilty look on his face, as if a thought had just struck him.

I furrowed my brow.”What is it?" I asked.

Matt hesitated for a moment. "We should've just left this at the pack house,” he said.

I considered his words and then sighed, realizing that he was right.

Dragging the tree up six flights of stairs had been unnecessary. Still, I didn’t mind it one bit if it meant spending more time with Matt.

"Don't worry about it," I reassured him. "I'll drop off the tree at the pack house before heading back home. It's not a big deal."

A look of relief washed over Matt's face. "I'm sorry for making you drag the tree up all those stairs,” he said.

I leaned in closer to him, our faces only inches apart, and I let my actions speak for me.

"If you're really sorry," I said softly, leaving the words hanging, and I sealed my mouth over his.

Matt gripped my shoulders, responding with equal passion.

I groaned after he pulled away, awake my pants felt a little tighter.
