Good lord, that man.

I quickly took in his bedhead as he rested his cheek on his forearms, the hooded sweatshirt he wore with the sleeves pushed up, and his lounge pajama bottoms that, likely due to being a human jungle gym, dipped just slightly while his sweatshirt rose just enough, showing the tantalizing V of muscles in his lower back.

Sawyer had been fit when I met him, but he was muscle and then some these days. What I wouldn’t give to see all his muscles up close…

I sighed. Not happening, Grace.

Not wanting to get caught staring by either him or his sister, I stepped further into the room. “Good morning,” I said with a bit too much cheer in my voice.

Sawyer lifted his head, propping his chin on his forearms, and offered me a tired smile. Sydney, on the other hand, stopped her conversation with Brandon. “Hey, Grace! How are you this morning?” When Brandon tugged on her shirt, Sydney’s face morphed into stern mom and she told him, “I said no.”

I chuckled lightly to myself. Sydney was such a cute mom.

“I’m taking the kids to a playdate,” Sydney said as she stepped past her oldest and came near me. When she passed, I frowned and followed her into the mudroom where she pulled out the diaper bag. I watched her pack it up with a few pairs of super cute, boxer briefs for Brandon that were on top of the dryer, and diapers for Brody and Brie. The woman had diapers and wipes in every room in this house.

In went a new onesie for the littlest Prescott and shorts and shirts for the boys.

I kept my gaze fixed on her movements, unsure of what to do. Slowly, this change in plans had my heart accelerating and blood pumping. She did say we were doing breakfast this morning, right? What happened to that?

Just like a flip of a switch, the racing started completely, first in my head, followed by a tightness in my chest.

“That I forgot about,” she added quickly, making me realize that maybe this really hadn’t been planned. “You don’t mind keeping Sawyer company for an hour or two, do you? I totally screwed up on this, planning it back when the schedule came out and I knew Cael would be gone. We’ll be back before lunch. I’m so sorry, Grace.” She offered me a sympathetic smile. She almost pulled it off too. “It was scheduled months ago.”

They say that people who were trying to believe their own lies continuously added to their story.

Sydney was digging herself a big hole.

Still, I was unnerved by the idea of spending the day with Sawyer and just Sawyer. It was one thing for me to be with Sawyer when she was nearby. It was quite another to be completely alone with him.

Sure, yesterday we had started to ease back into the comfortableness we had once before, but Sydney was there and now she wasn’t going to be. I didn’t know if I was ready to do the one on one thing with Sawyer yet, not with my conflicting anxiety and libido.
