CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

I wake a short while later, glancing at the clock. It’s after ten. Shit. I really need to get home. I roll over and am greeted by a smiling Theo.

“Hey, you’re awake. Did you not sleep?”

“Yeah, I did. I just woke up a bit ago.”

“And you’re watching me sleep. You creepy bastard.” I giggle and nuzzle into his chest. Damn this feels so right.

“I was just thinking about that night at Shay…when you blew me off.” He snickers, dropping a soft kiss into my mess of wild auburn hair.

“Oh God, don’t remind me of that night ever again.”

“Um, that’s not going to be possible because that night was unforgettable.”

I groan and cover my face.

“You were so fucking beautiful, Leslie.”

“Oh yeah,” I reply sardonically. “A beautiful orgasming-hussie climaxing on a stranger’s leg.”

“I resent that.”

“Resent it all you want. That was the single most embarrassing moment of my life.”

His chest vibrates with mirth. “I’m glad I got to be a part of it.” He bites his lower lip playfully. “You have no idea what that did to me,” he starts, and I frown, wondering where he’s going with this.

He rolls over onto his back, staring at a spot on the ceiling. I prop my head on my hand, listening intently. “I’d been in such a fog for three whole years—a state of numbness. And then I saw you…” he says, smirking as if remembering a private joke. “You were dancing like nobody was watching. You weren’t trying to look cool or sexy, you were just laughing. You were laughing so bloody hard I found myself laughing with you! I was drawn to you.” He looks at me seriously. “I was desperate to know you. To know what kind of person can be that incredibly happy.”

I gape at him. Is he fucking with me right now?

He ignores my stunned expression and continues, “And then when I touched you, it was like your body was hardwired to mine. Every movement, every flick…every adjustment…you were so…” he pauses, grinning mischievously, “Responsive.”

I smack his chest and he laughs buoyantly. It’s a great deep resonance that stirs the warm fuzzies inside of me. “I knew then I had to have you.” He pulls me down onto his chest, kissing the top of my head.

“Sorry I made you work so hard,” I whisper, feeling slightly ashamed of my behavior. God, how many times did I run from him?

“You’re worth it,” he says, seriously, trailing his fingers languidly up and down my spine. I feel a familiar stirring in my core and know that if I don’t get out of this bed soon I’ll be here for another couple of hours. Plus, I don’t know how many more compliments I can take. It all gets to be a bit much for me to accept.

“As much as I love this walk down memory lane, I really have to be going.”

“No,” he groans and squeezes me into him.

“I’m afraid so. I just got back from vacation and have so much work to catch up on.
