Good morning, beautiful.

I drop a gentle kiss on her curly hair while the smooth skin of her cheek rests against my chest. Sweet Lou’s breathing is deep and slow as her naked body lies alongside mine. I study her peaceful face, which evokes a strange mix of satisfaction and something else.

Contentment. Exhilaration. Happiness?

Is that what this is? Damn.

I already liked Louise, can’t and won’t deny it. That feisty sweet, energetic kindness only amps up the sex appeal for me. But truthfully, I expected our first time together to be an awkward, disappointing disaster. Because of me, not her.

Instead it was the best sex of my life.

I stroke her bare back down to her hip, admiring the beauty of those exposed curves and the lush softness of her skin. She’s a gorgeous woman, but for me this was much more than a fantasy fuck. I feel…complete. With her. Inside her. Beside her.

“Hey,” she greets me when those sleepy amber eyes open.

“Hey, yourself.” I reply with a quick kiss to her forehead. “You good?”

“Yeah.” She smiles. “Really good. Thanks.”

“Me too.” I smile back. “You hungry?”

“A little.” She sits up and burrows under my arm.

“Okay. You want to go out and get some breakfast?” I’m not sure what’s here and I want her to feel treated well.

“I don’t know.” She starts tugging my forearm hairs. It tickles and stings at once. “It’s Saturday, right?”

“All day,” I assure her.

“That’s what I thought.” She hesitates. “I have shit to do this afternoon. Would you mind if we turned it into lunch instead?”

“Not at all,” I reassure her. “But I thought you didn’t work today.”

“I don’t. Macy’s throwing a party for Paul next Saturday, and I have nothing but scrubs and workout clothes. I need to get something to wear.”

“The military guy who got hurt? How’s he doing?”

“He made it home this past week.” She sighs. “I’ll know more Saturday.” The tugging and twisting of my forearm hair ceases, and her hands still. “Would you like to go?”

Her question surprises me. I don’t really know. “Will Daughtry be there?”

She jerks her head back against my arm. “I assume so, but I’m not sure. Do you want me to ask him?”

“To go with you to the party?” I try not to sound pissed off.

She shoots me a peculiar look. “Um…no. To see if he’s going, since it’s such a deal breaker for you.”

“It’s not.” I snake my hand under her arm and cup her breast.

“Then what is it?” she asks.

“If Mike has a problem with us being together, and his cousin decides to jump in on that, it won’t be pretty,” I warn her. “Maybe this isn’t the right time.”

“I don’t think you need to worry about that.”

“Macy’s done it before.” Damn. Up until this moment, it wasn’t obvious to me that I was trying so hard not be down on Louise’s best friend.

“Oh. I hadn’t thought of it like that.” Louise sits quietly for an endless moment. “You don’t have to decide now. Just let me know.
