Colton

Lindsay is silent for so long, I almost begin to second guess myself. But, no. Even if she doesn’t want the same things, thinks I’m crazy, or whatever else is going through her mind, I don’t regret laying myself bare, being vulnerable, and risking a broken heart.

The revulsion caused from considering a condom shocked the fuck out of me. I didn’t think it was possible to fall in love so fast, but when I looked inside a little closer, it was plain as day. Right there, just waiting for me to open my eyes and accept that Lindsay owned my heart. I wanted her to be mine in every way, my wife, my friend, my lover, and the mother of our children.

I’ve never been an impulsive guy. I’m usually slow and methodical, but since I met Lindsay, I’ve cared less and less about the way things should be done. So, I ran with it. I blurted out my dreams and hoped she was in the same place as me.

I run a tired hand through my hair and then scrub it down my face. The tension in the room is so thick, you would cut it with a knife. I know she’s processing, but it’s killing me. I need to say something, break the silence, but I haven’t got a fucking clue what that would be.

“Colton.”

My eyes snap to hers, grateful she’s even acknowledging my presence. There is hesitation in those mocha irises. Actually, I look closer, it’s . . . she’s waiting for something. I can see the yearning and I wrack my brain trying to figure out what she needs from me.

“Colton,” she sighs my name this time. “Do you love me?”

What the fuck? “How can you ask me that?” I snap. “Of course I love you.”

Her lips pinch and anger darkens her expression. “How was I supposed to know when you haven’t told me, jackass,” she responds in a frosty tone.

“What do you mean I didn’t—” Well, shit. I run over the whole conversation in my head. I drop my head down. “Motherfucker,” I groan, exasperated with my own stupidity.

I sit up and scoot so I’m sitting against the headboard and pull on Lindsay’s arm until she reluctantly lets me settle her in my lap. “You are so right, honey,” I confess, brushing my lips over her forehead. “I’m a complete jackass. You think you could give me a mulligan?”

I lift her chin with a curled finger underneath and search her face. Once again, I’m grateful that she is as transparent as glass, at least to me. My question sparks a miniscule amount of humor in her eyes. And there with it, is what I needed to see. Hope.

“Lindsay Balewa,” I start with an overly serious tone, but can’t stop a smile when she stifles a giggle. “Would you please control yourself, woman?” I demand. She bites her bottom lip and arousal slams into me. How the fuck did I forget that we are in bed and bare-ass
