Shane

Shane had never spent the night with a woman. Ever. He was a midnight runner. He’d always felt it was too intimate, and he’d never felt the need to.

But with Sarah Beth, he could stay forever.

So, when he woke up to the rain, the wind, and the slight light of morning, her naked body pressed to his, he thought it was all a dream.

He’d had this dream before—of being with Sarah Beth—and he always felt the empty feeling in the pit of his stomach when dawn would come and it was just him.

Shane tightened his arms around her, just to be sure things were real. He kissed her soft shoulder before he got up and went pee, washed his hands, and made coffee.

“Good morning,” she said as she walked into the kitchen, the silk robe around her body.

Shane walked to her and kissed her for a moment. “Good morning. And if you don’t stop wearing this robe, we will never make it out of this house.”

“Nothing wrong with that, Mr. Sawyer. Besides, if you don’t put a shirt on, I know we won’t leave this house at least until Monday.” She gave him one last kiss.

“How do you like your coffee?” he asked.

“Little bit of cream and sugar is fine, thank you.”

Shane laughed to himself as he made her a cup.

“What?” she asked.

“This all feels like a dream.” He looked at her and handed her a cup of coffee. “I actually had to kiss your shoulder this morning and make sure everything was real.” He took a sip of his coffee.

Sarah Beth smiled, walked over to him, and rested her head on his back. Wrapped her arms around his middle. “Me too.”

Shane adjusted himself so that she was against his chest. Kissed her head.

“How are you feeling with the whole Jimmy thing?”

“Not sure. I suppose I feel real bad for his wife and kids. Can’t get them out of my head.”

Sarah Beth, he knew, always had a soft spot for kids.

“Do you want kids, Sarah Beth?” he whispered in her ear.

“Yeah.”

“Well”—Shane took Sarah Beth in his arms, and her legs wrapped around his middle—“let’s go try and make some.”

He kissed her on the mouth, and they spent the morning in bed, making up for lost time.
