Jesse closed the door behind him as he carried in the rest of the bags. It didn’t take long to unpack the groceries or any of the other things he’d bought. He hadn’t meant to buy so much, but once he made up his mind, there was nothing to stop him.

He would make sure Cori’s Christmas was everything she wanted it to be.

Not one day had gone by when he hadn’t reminded himself that it was his big mouth that caused her argument with her father. She may have forgiven him for the slip, but he hadn’t. No matter how long it took him, he would make it up to her. Hopefully, today would help.

Eyeing the bag with the take-out food, he thought he was off to a good start. It was one of her family traditions he could mark off the list he’d memorized. There was more to come, but for now, he needed to make sure she ate. She had to be starving.

How had the quick trip into town he’d planned turned into five hours? Had the traffic not been terrible, he would have made it in four. Still, he was gone longer than what he told her he would be.

Had Cori used her free time wisely and did as he asked? He hoped so. Sleep deprivation caused a lot of physical and emotional changes in a person. It took him a few months to figure that out when he and Theo were performing in New Orleans. Once he got in a couple nights of solid sleep, he always bounced back. Cori would too. He had no doubts.

After he disposed of the grocery sacks, he made his way through the cabin, approaching the staircase with haste. He’d been looking forward to seeing her ever since he left. Whenever they were apart, she consumed his thoughts.

As he paused on the bottom step, the weight of what was happening hit him. He was getting in too deep. Not one time could he recall reacting to a woman the way he was reacting to Cori. He couldn’t think of one he’d ever rushed to see or any that stayed on his mind for longer than a day.

His behavior was getting careless. There was no guarantee she wanted anything to do with him further than a working relationship. Yeah, they were friends, but they could be more. He wanted to be the one consuming her mind, her body, and her heart.

Would she be willing to give it to him? That was the million-dollar question and the same one that had him throwing on the brakes. He had to slow things down. He made a promise and keeping it was important. A man was only as good as his word.

Before he continued up the staircase, something caught his attention in the den. The Christmas tree was partially blocked from his sight, but he saw enough to know the lights were on. He heard wood crackling too. Cori must have started a fire.

Poor girl. She wasn’t used to the cooler temperatures.
