“Your brother just called, he’ll be here in a half hour.” I hear Tracey whisper to Nate through the cracked door.

“I’ll be out soon.” He walks back towards the bed and lies next to me after checking on Hazel sleeping in her pack n’ play.

“Tell me more about your brother. You’ve only told me stories of when you were kids,” I whisper.

“That’s because I haven’t seen much of him in the past few years. He’s wrapped up in the whole Hollywood scene after having big success on his TV show, but my mom told me he’s moving back here because it just ended. One of his costars was recently in a car crash that killed everyone in the car including his wife and son.

I gasp, “Oh my god. I can’t even imagine how hard that’s been on your brother. Were they close?”

“Yeah, they were friends since grade school. Him and two of his buddies worked together on a project that was pretty successful. They didn’t feel right going back to the show after the accident, so they pulled the plug on it.”

“That’s horrible. I really hope he finds something that makes him happy again.”

“Me too. I’m worried about him. I don’t read too much into the tabloids, but it’s been hard not to notice him on the covers stumbling out of bars. He’s spiraling out of control, and I’m hoping seeing him for the next few days and him moving home, helps him get some perspective back on his life. I can’t remember the last time he answered one of my phone calls.”

I place my hand on his arm and give it a squeeze. It must be so hard losing your best friend and knowing his whole family died with him. If anything ever happened to Amanda, I’d be a mess.

“God, I love you.”

“I love you too.” He leans in and brushes his lips over mine, and the sweetness of it doesn’t last long when he grips the back of my neck pulling me closer.

“How big is the shower in your bathroom?”

“Big enough.”

I have to fight a yelp when he pulls me off the bed and into the bathroom. He places something next to me on the counter, and I see it’s Hazel’s baby monitor. He really does think of everything when I can’t remember my own name when his lips are on me.

Nate’s hands slowly work under my thighs, picking me up and placing me on the counter. My breath hitches when he bends his face towards my chest and bites my aching nipple through the fabric of my blouse.

“Shhhh. You don’t want to wake up Hazel,” Nate whispers in my ear.

He slowly releases each individual button on my shirt, then places his hands on my stomach pushing outwards, taking it off. His hands on my skin sets me ablaze, and it’s so erotic I don’t know if I’ll be able to put up with this slow torture he’s putting me through.

After another minute of still being mostly clothed, I whip Nate’s shirt over his head and wince when I catch his ear on the neckline.
