I wasn’t sure what had gotten into Freddie. There’d been a distinct change in his mood from the time he sat down with us at dinner until we left the restaurant. I wanted more than anything to be the man Freddie wanted me to be, but I still had it stuck firmly in my head if I left the city my clients would forget about me and I’d be starting over. Coming home for him when I refused to come home for my own family felt like a slap to their faces, and as much as I didn’t like the way my father or sisters acted, I didn’t want them thinking I’d been unwilling to take over the bakery out of spite. There was nothing I’d ever be able to do that would show them I hadn’t wanted to take on that role because I knew it would kill me inside.

“Why don’t you go get ready for bed,” I suggested to Freddie, stopping in front of the door to my bedroom. “I need to get a few things and I’ll be right in.

There was one piece of the outfit I’d been reluctant to put on and definitely wouldn’t have worn for date night with Sophia. Even now, I was hesitant because I’d had experiences in the past where similar articles of clothing had been misunderstood by partners, and I wasn’t sure how I’d react if Freddie was upset.

It was easy to find the small gift box the clerk at the store had given me, assuming I was there to pick up a gift for someone special. It wasn’t the first time this had happened either, and I learned it was easier to smile and say thank you rather than trying to correct them. I pulled back the hot pink tissue paper, revealing an emerald green camisole that I’d been drawn to the moment I saw it. After shrugging out of my shirt, kicking off my boots, and pushing my jeans over my hips, I slid the green satin over my head. I stared down at the boots, wondering if it would seem like overkill if I put those back on for my trek across the hallway. In the end, I decided to say fuck it and do it, because my ass looked spectacular when I wore those boots.

I poked my head into the hallway to make sure Sophia was still sleeping before crossing to Freddie’s bedroom. I heard the water running in his bathroom so I crept through the room as quietly as possible, hoping to surprise him. When he caught a glimpse of me through the mirror he froze, toothbrush hanging out of his mouth and toothpaste dribbling down his chin.

I snuck up behind him, wrapping my arms around his waist. “You like?”

“Like? I fucking love,” Freddie responded, turning so he could place his hands on my hips. He pulled me closer to him, allowing me to feel just how much he was enjoying his surprise. “I haven’t seen you wear anything like this before.
