Despite my pleas and a few pouty lips, Tony and I both got dressed. He checked his messages and quickly got dressed. Apparently one of the cappuccino machines at the shop was on the fritz so he had to go either write a check or see if he could fix the machine on his own. I watched him pull on a bright blue polo shirt and slip into a tight pair of jeans, which did nothing to quell the desire I already had growing once more for him. “Hey, Rach… don’t let the sheets get too cold while I’m gone. This shouldn’t take long.”

“Take all the time you need, after all you’re a hard-working man. That’s a quality I admire.”

“You need anything while I’m out?”

“Not unless Amato needs something from the drugstore. If he does, I’ll text you.” He gave me a quick kiss on lips before making a quick exit, grabbing his keys and his phone. “Don’t’ wander away while I’m gone.”

“Not a chance, after all you said I could be a lazy lady today, remember?”

“Yes. Behave yourself while I’m gone. I’ll know if you aren’t cooperative.”

“Hmm. I do like trying your patience.”

“You’re walking a thin line lady…” I pulled him back to me by the loops on his jeans and grabbed his bulge once more for good measure. “Go fix your steam machine. I’ll be around.”

I heard him curse as his phone dinged again. He shut the door behind him quickly before I could tease him anymore and I heard him quickly walk down the stairs. In Tony’s absence I decided that I would go ahead and at least take some vitals on my patient. I chided myself for not being up any earlier to ensure he had a restful night, but at the same time, I knew that my face would betray everything about my relationship with Tony. I didn’t have a poker face, especially when I was in love. At least … I hoped I was in love, I didn’t even know at that point if I had ever truly been in love with anyone in my past. No one made me feel as if I couldn’t live without them, not the way Tony did at least.

I knocked softly on Amato’s door, and heard him fumbling around. I hazarded that he was probably out of bed looking over his books, or attempting to do some other type of business work. He wouldn’t have expected me at that time of day, which was good. I always enjoyed catching my patients in the act of disobeying doctors’ orders. “Is this a bad time, Amato? I can come back if need be.”

“No…no you sweet lady, come on in.”

I found Amato had situated himself back in his hospital bed and was fumbling with the television remote. “I was just trying to find some news on this blasted television. You know this time of day there’s never anything on but judge shows and endless advertisements. I don’t need a Spin Mop, I have housekeepers, ya feel me?”

“Haha.
