There was only one answer.

Still, I wanted to know something. Pulling her up on my lap, I adjusted her skirt so she straddled me. “You said you kind of freaked out. Why did you freak out?”

She gulped, pushing her hair—slightly messy from my hands—away from her cheek. Then she looked me in the eyes. “Because I like you.”

Oh hell. There it was. My heart hitched a ride on a hot-air balloon, sailing up to the sky. I was hopeless around her. “I like you too,” I said, looping my arms around her and planting a quick kiss on those wickedly talented lips. “Does that scare you?”

“To like you? Or that you like me too?” she asked.

I smiled. “Both.”

She nodded. “Both scare me.”

“Just be honest with me. That’s all we have, Elle,” I said, cupping her cheek, keeping her gaze on me. “That’s all I ask of you. I respect your boundaries and your wishes. All I want is the truth.”

She closed her eyes. Her face looked pained, and she sighed, but when she opened her eyes, she nodded. “So much.”

Yup. I was a goner. But I was also a realist. “It’s the same for me. You are in my heart and my head. But I respect that you don’t know if you can get involved. I respect your fear. I know you need time. So, listen—no strings, no promises, nothing more. But if you cancel, don’t say something came up. Say ‘I have to see my sister,’ or ‘I’m too tired,’ or ‘I need to work late,’ or ‘I don’t want to see you again.’ Or ‘I met a guy with a bigger cock, and—’”

She grabbed my hand and squeezed. “Just go ahead and strike that excuse. Because you know that will never happen.”

I wiggled my eyebrows. “Good. It’s my secret weapon.”

“You can use that weapon against me anytime.”

I gave a quick thrust up, showing I was always armed around her. “Another option would be ‘I’m going to surprise you at your office tomorrow with flowers and the blow job of a lifetime.’”

She cracked up, then her expression shifted, and she gave me a soft smile. “If it was good, it’s because I like you so much.”

Thump. Thump. But I didn’t tell her my heart was jackhammering for her. Instead, I said, “It was great, because I am crazy for you.”

She didn’t say it back, but her smile was genuine and warm. And when she reached for my hand, threading her fingers through mine and squeezing, I was sure that was her way of telling me we were in this together. As much as we could be. She leaned against me, sighing happily, then whispered my name.

Yup. This would do. This would definitely do.

I ran my hands up her back, softly stroking her, savoring the quiet moment as we showed each other that we were becoming more.

The moment ended when she said softly, “Alex told me you gave him some video-game pointers at the center.”

“Yeah. I was there after a tutoring session, and he was playing with Rex and Tyler.
