Glancing around Symphony’s bedroom, Nathan thought he might get home and paint the whole house blue, his new favorite color. He pulled her flush to his side. With his arm around her back, she settled into his embrace, head tucked under his chin. Warm currents tickled the hairs covering his chest when she exhaled. So this was how it felt to be with a woman he cared about.

“Blue.”

“Yes,” she purred, and Nathan’s masculine pride took a bow. Nothing did more for the male ego than satisfying his woman in bed.

“I like you.” Understatement. Nathan felt protective and possessive of the woman in his arms.

“Me too, you.”

“The Firefighter’s Ball is coming up next week. I want you with me.” That sounded stupid to his own ears. He should’ve just asked her to be his date.

“You get nervous in front of crowds?”

He laughed, “There’s that quick wit I like.” He toyed with a tendril of her hair while she drew invisible circles on his chest. “I need a date.”

“So… what? I’m your last ditch effort to get a girl to the ball?”

“You’re my definite first choice. What’s your answer?” He pulled her on top of him. Her bare breasts rested against his chest. He lust meter shot to red all over again.

“My answer is,” she angled her head up as if searching for the right answer.

He tickled her sides until she gasped for air one minute and incoherent with peals of laughter the next. “Stop stalling.”

“Yes, yes. I’ll be your pity date. Just stop tickling me.”

Her head rested in the crook of his neck. Her breath came in rapid pants, moist and heated against his skin.

“I have one more request.” He tried to keep the seriousness out of his voice, but failed. “You have a portable lifestyle, and…” he hesitated, looking around the room. She wouldn’t need packing boxes or a U-Haul. She could drive away and every tangible thread of evidence that they were together would be gone. How had they gone from easy to hard talk?

Symphony raised her head, regarding him with a questioning stare.

“Nathan?”

“Don’t disappear on me,” he began, “This connection between us is more than physical.” Feelings swirled through his veins. Some were foreign to him, but welcomed. He wanted everything with Symphony—her trust, her love. He wanted a future with her. How would she respond?

“It was,” she replied. Then she shook her head, like she’d said the wrong thing. “I mean… it is more than physical for me.”

Nathan blew out a crap load of anxiety. “That’s good, Blue… really good to know.” How had he gotten so lucky? Blue was perfect and she was his, and his alone, untouched by another man.

“Now I have a question for you,” she said.

“Shoot.”

“What’s your biggest fear?”

Nathan adjusted, so that his arm was behind his head. His biceps served as a pillow. “Never really thought about it.”

“What’s the first thing that comes to mind?”

He cycled through the years of his life, sorting the happy from the sad, when they lost his mom, his brief naval career, the fire onboard the ship, his shipmate getting burned.
