Chapter 12
Stephen sat in a chair near the bed, watching Kaylee sleep. A sense of peace surrounded him. It had been a long time since heâd taken care of a Little. Six years, to be precise. He was touched Kaylee had decided to try being Little with him, and he hoped she was enjoying the experience thus far.
I want to keep her.
The thought echoed in his head.
I want to keep her and make her mine forever.
Heâd arrived at Rawhide less than two weeks ago, but would it be reckless to follow Kaylee back to Richmond? Would she think him a lovestruck fool if he tried?
Shit, he was falling hard and fast. Just like heâd feared he would. But he couldnât help it. The Little girl sleeping soundly in his bed calmed the darkest parts of him and made him want to be a better man.
One month, he reminded himself. She would be spending one month at the Ranch. He hoped to see her every single day for the rest of December. A smile touched his lips when he imagined spending Christmas Day with her.
A tree. He would get a tree for his apartment, and they could decorate it together. A real tree, he decided. Not a fake one. A real tree that would fill his living space with the scent of pine. He compiled a list in his head of all the items he needed to acquire in addition to the tree. Ornaments. Lights. Tinsel. A tree skirt. Hm, what else? Maybe heâd better write it all down. He didnât want to forget anything.
He wanted to make Christmas perfect for Kaylee.
His heart broke as he thought about how terribly Fuckface Chad had hurt her. He resolved he would do everything in his power to make this a holiday to remember for his adorable Little girl.
Yes, he already felt like she belonged to him.
A sigh escaped the sleeping form on the bed, and Kaylee rolled over and stretched. Her eyes blinked open and she smiled tiredly when she saw him. âMorning, Daddy. Or evening. What time is it?â
âItâs nine thirty at night, baby. You only slept for about an hour and a half. Did you have a good nap?â
âYep, Daddy, I slept great.â She sat up against the pillows, her pigtails coming undone, and he regretted he hadnât brushed her hair out before tucking her in. He hoped the hairstyle hadnât caused her any discomfort as sheâd slept.
With a jolt, he realized how out of practice he was, but he resolved he would pay better attention to such details going forward. Not just because he longed to win Kaylee over, but because he wanted to help her heal from the recent pain sheâd endured.
He rose from the chair, eager to touch her. Eager to take her in his arms. He settled on the bed and wrapped his arms around her, giving her a tight hug, needing to assure himself she was real and this was actually happening. After too many years of solitude, he was spending time with a delightful Little who radiated pure sunshine.
