THE NEXT MORNING, HEâS up long before me. Somehow, heâs managed to make steak and eggs over the campfire.
âI donât recall bringing a ribeye with me last night when I packed the cooler, Spencer.â
Shrugging, he hands me a plate and says, âYou didnât. I pilfered it from your kitchen.â
âYou stole it from my kitchen?â I ask, trying to suppress the giggle that rises.
âI prefer my terminology. I didnât steal it.â
âYou do realize they mean the same thing?â I ask as he sits beside me on the floor.
âYep. Mine just sounds better,â he says, biting a piece of steak.
âYouâre a damned good cook, especially over campfire.â
âHad no choice. When my mom died, Dad made sure that Syd and I knew how to take care of the basics in case something happened to him. After a while, we began to take turns cooking.â
âHow come I never knew that?â
âYou know it wasnât as easy for me to talk about my mom back then as it has become in these later years. Same with my dad.â
âYeah, well, that was fresh.â
âAnd hers was no less painful.â
âIâm sorry,â I say, reaching out and touching his hand. âI didnât mean to imply thatââ
âNo. Itâs good. I know you didnât. Sometimes, it just still seems fresh; like it just happened yesterday. When the pain is raw like that, I tend to be a little short. My bad.â
I nod and return to eating. We eat in silence for several minutes before he gets up and takes our plates to clean up.
âWe need to get out there and see whatâs happening.â
âIâm sure theyâre erecting a Bailey bridge. They wonât allow this community to be down without access for too long.â
âMoney.â
âYeah, well, it does go a long way,â I say.
He nods again. I get up and begin getting dressed, and Iâm surprised when I find him still standing in the mini kitchen in just his jeans and no shirt, socks, or shoes. His jeans hang at his hips, and he looks so delicious that I want to pull them down, pull his cock out, and suck the hell out of it.
Spencer lets me know that his mind isnât on the same page as mine when he says, âP, what are we doing?â
âWhat do you mean?â I ask, turning away from him.
âI mean this thing between us, sleeping together, having sex, reminiscing about the past, and acting like today doesnât exist.â
I sigh. âIâm sorry. Iâve been selfish and havenât been considering your feelings just taking what I needed.â
âWhat do you want from me, Poppy?â
âNothing. Everything. I donât know, Spence. What are you asking me? I mean, I know that it sounds selfish, but I want everything that you have to give to me.â
âIâm giving you all that I have, P. Donât have me out here on a fucking limb again, and youâre not coming out with me.â
âIâm trying, Spence.â
âAre you really, though? I want you, P, and you know this. Itâs hard to get through to you when youâre like this.â
âLike what?â
âWaffling. You canât make up your mind about shit, and Iâm trying to make it easy for you.
