Chapter 9

On Friday night, Spencer was raring to go. He’d made sure to dress casually in jeans and his favorite jersey. He showed up at Raina’s door with a matching kid’s jersey he’d had made specifically for Zoe. Raina didn’t strike him as very much into sports, but he’d had one made for her, too, just in case.

When Raina opened the door, she was a vision. Her long hair hung in wavy curls well past her shoulders. He loved when she wore it down, and he could remember what it was like running his hands through the luxurious mane. She was dressed simply in a gray turtleneck and slim-fitting jeans. She wore hardly any makeup other than a pale shade of lipstick on her delectable lips. Raina had a natural beauty that didn’t need embellishments. She could have been wearing a potato sack and he would still find her attractive.

“C’mon in.” She motioned him inside. “It’s chilly out.”

“It sure is,” Spencer said, dropping the bag he’d brought onto the floor and rubbing his hands together to warm them up for a minute. Fall was certainly kicking in big-time and the air had turned unseasonably cold almost overnight.

“Zoe’s in the living room.” Raina turned to go away, but Spencer caught her unaware and pulled her into his arms.

He brushed a soft kiss over her mouth and it elicited more than he’d bargained for because passion ignited. Raina relaxed in his arms and he grabbed her face with both hands and deepened the kiss. His tongue entered her mouth with sweeping thrusts and Raina responded in turn.

Slowly, Spencer tilted his head away to gaze at her. He hadn’t meant the kiss to be anything other than a sweet gesture, but whenever he was around Raina she sparked a lust in him that made him feel like a randy teenage boy.

They stared at each other for several long moments, neither of them speaking. It wasn’t until they heard Zoe coming down the stairs calling his name that they reluctantly pulled away.

“Spence.” Zoe gave his legs a gentle tug when she reached the bottom level. “Where have you been?”

“I’m sorry, munchkin,” he said, lifting her into his arms. “Traffic was a nightmare, but there’s still plenty of time for us to grab a bite to eat at the restaurant first.”

“Let’s go,” Zoe urged excitedly.

Spencer looked at Raina. “I’m ready,” she said, walking over to the coatrack. She pulled off Zoe’s lightweight jacket and handed it to him and then slid a suede jacket over her shoulders.

“Wait, wait,” Spencer said and sat Zoe on the floor. He reached for the bag he’d discarded earlier in his haste to kiss Raina and reached inside to hand Zoe the jersey.

“Oh,” Zoe exclaimed, holding it up to admire. “Can I put it on, Auntie Raina?”

Raina smiled. “Of course.” She helped Zoe take off the V-neck sweater she was wearing over her turtleneck, so Zoe could put the jersey on over it. It fit her perfectly. Raina looked at Spencer.
