Chapter Seven

Three weeks later

“How are you holding up?” Holly asked, taking a seat at Pike’s table.

Mary smiled, thinking about the last three weeks of living with Pike. She’d not seen anyone besides Holly or Duke. Pike wouldn’t allow Mac or anyone else to enter his home. She didn’t mind and loved the protective way he was being. At the same time, she didn’t allow him to get too close. When she woke up to find him holding her, she’d move away.

“From that smile I say everything is going well?”

Holly rested her chin on her hands, raising a brow.

“We’re having sex. We’re having a lot of sex,” Mary said. Her cheeks were heating under Holly’s watchful gaze.

“But?”

“I won’t let it go any further.” Mary looked down at her cast. They were restricted to what they could do sexually, but Pike had a big imagination.

“How can it not be going any further? You’ve had sex, right? That’s as far as it can go.”

Mary bit her lip. “It’s not just about the sex. I, erm, I won’t let him cuddle me or kiss me unless we’re having sex. There have been times I’m standing around the kitchen because the doctor said I could, and he’ll come up behind me, wrapping his arms around me. I tell him not to. I can’t do it, Hols. I can’t let him have that part of me.”

“You’re having sex without the commitment?”

“What do you think I should do?” Mary stared at her friend hoping she’d have some insight. “I mean, he’s being really sweet.” She pointed across the kitchen to the book stand he’d built for her. “He did all of that for me. Have a look around. He’s packed the kitchen with my own stuff.”

“I think he’s trying to tell you something,” Holly said, turning back to face her.

“My cast is coming off in a couple of days. The doctor told me the rest was just a precaution, but everything is looking good. I went to the hospital the other day.”

“I know. I’ve been waiting to find out what went on at your appointment. Pike’s pretty protective of you.” Holly took a sip of her coffee. Getting to her feet, Mary walked toward the drawer where she’d stored the notebook she found. “Should you be walking around?”

“I’ve got some mobility. Honestly, it doesn’t even hurt to move anymore.” She handed the book to Holly.

“What’s this?”

“Have a look.” She’d found the notebook the other day. It was full of notes on everything she’d made a note of herself.

“I don’t understand. This is your giant wish list. I remember you writing this.”

“I know. I remember, and you remember. It was in Pike’s office drawer.”

“What were you doing going through his office drawer?” Holly asked. “You know they don’t like you snooping.”

“I’m not a fucking rat or a snitch, Hols. I was looking for a pen. I couldn’t find a working one, and he wasn’t around. I found this, and I couldn’t help but look.”

“What do you think it is?”

“I think he somehow got into our apartment and found my wish list.
