January woke slowly, burrowing deeper in the hypnotic warmth of the butter-soft bedsheets. Her mind drifted over the last twelve hours, lazily reminding her of dinner…the impulsive trip to the fountains in front of the hotel…Finn’s rough, gruff voice as he’d told her to come…the intensity on his gorgeous face when she’d said it right back to him…the night they’d spent together after that, wrapped up in blankets and laughter and each other as they’d watched movies until drifting off…

Oh God, she’d had insanely hot, other-worldly, mind-blowing sex with Finn. Finn. And rather than rationally thinking about the fact that he was going back to New Orleans in a few days, probably forever, all January wanted was to do it again.

“Mmmm. Morning,” Finn murmured, and okay, that sexy, scruffy, bed-head thing he had going on so wasn’t helping to keep her libido in check.

“It is morning.” Rolling over, she squinted at the clock on the bedside table, exhaling in surprise as the numbers registered. “Oh, it’s early.”

“I’m not much of a late sleeper,” Finn admitted. “Occupational hazard.”

January’s brows rose. “What time does the team usually practice?”

“It depends on where we are in the season, but no matter when we hit the ice, I go in a couple hours early, just to do my own workout and review film.”

The muscles in his shoulders flexed enticingly as he stretched, and January forced herself to focus. “Jeez. You really are a workaholic.”

Finn turned to his side, facing her in the soft, early morning sunlight drifting in past the sheers. “Maybe. But playing hockey is all I’ve ever wanted to do. It doesn’t feel like work to me.”

“You haven’t spent much time with the Cup,” she said, her stomach giving up a tiny squeeze as his expression tightened in response.

“I only wanted to do one thing with it, and that was bring it to Asher’s grave.”

An idea sparked in January’s mind, pushing past her lips before she could cage it. “You have it for another hour or so, right? Why don’t we have breakfast with it?”

The edges of Finn’s mouth lifted in a half-smirk. “You do realize Edwin comes with the deal?”

“Yes, I realize Edwin comes with the deal, but come on. It’s the Cup, Finn. I know you wanted to bring it to Asher’s grave rather than get all flashy with the thing, but you worked your ass off to earn the win. Don’t you think you deserve a little celebration too?”

The surprise whisking through his light brown stare told her all too clearly that the thought hadn’t occurred to him. “I guess I do have some time before Edwin takes the Cup to my buddy, Bear. But we’ll need to hurry. Bear racked up more penalty minutes than anyone else on the Rage this year. He and I might be teammates, but I’m not about to piss the guy off by keeping him from his day with the Cup.”

January pictured the big, burly defenseman in her head, and oookay. Valid point. “Alright. I’ll jump in the shower while you order room service and talk to Edwin.
