Chapter Twenty-One

I woke up with a hangover and no Killian. There were two Ibuprofen along with a glass of water and a note beside the bed.

Legs,

Be back soon. Order yourself breakfast.

K

I placed my order. Killian didn’t return until an hour after it arrived. He brushed his lips against my cheek, made his way to the shower, and left me without a word. I’d smelled his sweaty, musky post-workout body. With a smile, I thought that I wouldn’t mind if he didn’t shower.

When he came out, he turned on the television after sitting on the couch. He didn’t look at me or speak.

This was game-day Killian.

I took my shower, fixed my hair and makeup then grabbed my book. A large comfortable-looking chair sat close to the couch, but Killian stopped me before I settled in.

“No. Here.” He spread his legs and pointed between them.

I looked at the area he wanted me to occupy and decided to be comfortable. He didn’t seem to mind when I sat on the floor and rested my head against his inner thigh. He absently rubbed my shoulders, touching me like always. I relaxed against him and enjoyed every second.

He called Blitz at noon.

“I’m heading out. I’ll take a private car. Have Malory collect Rebecca and I’ll see you at the stadium.”

Killian pulled me up into his lap for a kiss, but again it was absentminded.

“I’ll see you after the game.” He moved me off his lap and stood.

It took him a few minutes to collect his things and then he was gone.

The suite felt incredibly empty without him. I settled back in with my book and hoped the time passed quickly. The game started at six, and finally Malory came to my room at four.

I wore my MacGregor jersey and tight jeans. I’d also placed my hair in a ponytail with a large purple bow.

“Now you’re getting in the spirit, girlfriend.”

Malory was dressed in her sequined Scorpions number six jersey. She handed me a black and purple baseball cap to match hers. I stepped over to a wall mirror and adjusted it on my head. I had no idea what Killian would think of my outfit, but I was ready to sit with the other wives and girlfriends in the stands. We took a private car to the stadium and walked in with the rest of the fans. Green jerseys completely outnumbered our purple ones, but we didn’t care.

The excitement in the enormous stadium was exhilarating. The smell of popcorn and hotdogs permeated the air.

“Let’s get a dog and drink so we can devour them in our seats.”

I hadn’t eaten since breakfast and I needed the calories. We waited in line for hot dogs and I heard some whispering behind me. I wouldn’t have noticed, but Killian’s name came into the conversation.

“Hey, are you Killian MacGregor’s girlfriend?”

How the hell would anyone know that?

“Umm, well…”

“I saw your picture in the paper. He looked really happy to see you at the airport.”

“Uh, thank you.”

“Are you a model?”

What was wrong with people? There was no way I was model material.
