Chapter 11

“Shit! Someone’s at the door! Marti, stay here and pretend you’re asleep.” Annie quickly grabbed her robe and threw her hair into a towel and ran downstairs to see who it was. She knew it would be Tommy and her heart raced as she opened the door. He smiled that crooked smile of his, and her heart melted. Dang! He looked so good in his faded blue jeans and T-shirt. His biceps stretched his rolled up sleeves.

“Hi, baby. Sorry to just stop by, but I thought you’d like to go to lunch and then check on some designs and materials so you can start working on the house? One of the guys at work has a son who does all kinds of maintenance work. Says he can do it, just let him know what you want and anything custom. What do you say, sexy lady?” He smiled, as he put his arms around her waist and kissed her.

Crap!

“Oh, uh sure! Come in, sit down. I just got out the shower, so let me get dressed and we can go. I think Marti is still sleeping, I’ll be down in a sec….” She trailed off as she ran upstairs.

“Shit! Marti, I told you he was gonna find out!” Annie whispered to her friend.

“Who freakin cares, love, come kiss me!”

“Stop it, Marti, and don’t say anything! I will be so mad at you! Just hush!!” She put on a T-shirt and shorts and ran downstairs.

Tommy was scanning the living room, checking what could be fixed, and what needed replacing. It was a vintage antebellum house and Grandpa had been too old and too tired to do any of the upkeep. Annie didn’t know why he never hired anyone; he obviously had the money to do it. And now she had the money and no one even knew. She kept it a big secret. She was afraid people would treat her differently, especially Tommy.

“God you’re beautiful!” He smiled.

“Thanks, baby, you’re looking pretty good yourself! Where we going?”

“I thought we’d run over to the city and spend the day there. They have some really nice restaurants then we can dive into the home center and check out what we need for the house and have it delivered. It’s only about an hour away.”

“Nice restaurants? Let me go change my clothes.”

“You don’t have to; it’s hotter than hell out there and sticky. The humidity is awful.”

Marti was listening to their conversation and when she heard they were going to the city, she bit her tongue. Yeah, you go to the city, boy, and stay there!

He was right, by the time she got into the car, Annie’s top was clinging to her from the heat and her shorts were stuck to her legs. Tommy opened the door for her as Marti watched from the window, thinking what an asshole he had been to her and why was he so kind to Annie? The pain of what had happened between them a few years earlier still crushed her heart.
