Chapter 13

Simon

My entire body clenches. This isn’t a quickie in the laundry room. It’s a chance for me to make love to my wife, to show her how she’s the center of my world and that everything I do is for her and our kids.

I could strip her down, lay her out, and have my way with her, but— No, that’s what I’m going to do. Only I’m not going to rush it. Every time she wants to hide in that pretty head of hers, I’m going to make her want to be present—with me.

We could get interrupted. The girls could call out, one could be sick again, there could be a number of things that happen to stop us, so I’ll seize each second.

She stops at the edge of the bed and trails her fingers over the rumpled bedding.

I go for a little levity, only because I sense that if I come on too strong, she’s going to add to that wall she’s built between me and her. “Still don’t make the bed in the mornings, I see?”

She looks at me over her shoulder with a faint smile. “It’ll just get messy again.”

Her standard response emboldens me. Everything has changed between us, but at the same time, nothing has. We’re just two kids who met in college and decided to do this thing called life together. Our path took a detour, but we can get back on it.

I position myself behind her and brush my hands over her shoulders, down her arms, until I can thread my fingers with hers. Burying my nose in her hair, I inhale the familiar scent. I never paid attention to what shampoo she bought, the same stuff I used to use. I’m dependent on whatever Charlie orders for delivery and that explains why I start the day with an emptiness. I have nothing of her in my condo, not even her lingering scent. Only memories.

“Simon…” There’s a hitch in her voice. She’s retreating into her head.

“Natalie. Stay with me. Stay right here with me, in this moment. I don’t have a right to ask, but I’m begging you now.”

“You’re not down on your knees.” She ends her joke with a strangled gasp. I know her well enough to guess that she didn’t catch the innuendo before she said it.

A sly smile lifts my lips and I ease to my knees.

She stiffens and sidles to the side, releasing my hands. “Oh. No, um… I haven’t cleaned up since… I mean.”

I don’t fucking care, but it bothers her and I’ll take care of it. Rising, I grab a hand and draw her along with me to the bathroom. “If you insist on being clean, then allow me to help.”

I flip on the bathroom light because I don’t want to miss an inch of her creamy, freckled skin.

“Do we need the light?” She avoids looking at herself in the mirror while I flip the shower on. Six heads send water cascading in all directions.

“Strip down, Natalie.” I never give her a direct order and she blinks at me.
