Holding Rory last night, her curvy body pressed up tight against mine, was a literal dream come true.

In the harsh light of day though, doubts start to slip in.

What if she regrets it? What if all of this is just some kind of fling for her?

I know that she said that she loves me, but maybe that was just something she said in the heat of the moment.

I hope it isn’t, but I’ve grown used to not getting my hopes up.

The pessimistic tone of my thoughts pisses me off but it’s hard to change a lifetime of broken promises and false hope.

Rory was still sound asleep when I woke up and though it killed me, I left her in bed alone. I needed to be alone with my thoughts. To figure out what I want now.

Besides, my angel needed her rest.

I bundled up and went outside, grabbing my shovel and clearing a path to the wood shed. It’s still well below freezing and I know that we’re going to need more wood inside today. I don’t want my angel getting cold.

I clear off the driveway and make sure her car is cleaned off in case she decides that she wants to leave. If Rory chooses me, I want it to be because she wants me and not because she physically can’t leave.

She’s still asleep when I carry in the first load of wood and stack it in the holder next to the fireplace. I sneak back outside and grab another load of firewood.

The sun is high now and sweat is coating my body as I head inside with the last of the wood for the fireplace. I kick the door closed as gently as I can and strip off my thick coat, hat, and mittens.

I’m stacking the wood when a pair of arms twine around my neck.

“Do you have any idea how hot you look right now?” Rory whispers in my ear and I shiver.

“I’m sweaty and covered in dirt,” I say with a laugh.

“Mmm,” she moans, nipping at my earlobe. “Keep going. You’re turning me on even more.”

I turn, wrapping my arms around her as she brushes her lips against mine. She’s wearing my t-shirt from yesterday and my cock hardens at the sight of her shapely body wrapped up in my clothes.

“Come back to bed,” she whispers.

“Are you sore from last night?”

“Hmm?” She asks dodging the question and I know that I have my answer.

“Let me feed you. It’s almost lunch time. You must be starving.”

“And then we’ll go back to bed?” She asks and I grin down at her.

“We’ll see.”

I grab Rory a pair of thick wool socks and together we head into the kitchen.

“What are you hungry for?” I ask as I open the fridge.

“How about pancakes? And bacon!” She says as she wraps her arms around my waist.

“Whatever you want,” I tell her as I grab the bacon and eggs.

Rory tries to help but when she slips in the socks and almost falls, I pick her up and set her on the counter next to me.
