I woke with a jolt of fear. Warmth surrounded me, a foreign alarm for someone unused to comforts. Something prickly jabbed at my conscience. Without moving, I took inventory of my body, registering the basics. All right, shoulder still on fire. Aches and pains minimized. As for where…

Where was I?

What had startled me awake?

I blinked my eyes open and held back a gasp at Cassidy’s face so close to mine. No, close was too large of a gap. She was on me, against me, under me. Everywhere I could see and feel. A groan built in my throat as my morning wood flagged its presence against the apex of her thighs.

So much for meeting in the middle. I couldn’t tell where she began and I ended, it was like we were one. She still slept, oblivious to my too-awake state. On her side, she was squashed against the back of the couch and covered by me. My leg was wedged between hers, and her ankle hooked her calf securely on top of mine. Like two threads, we were woven together in a braid of limbs and warm skin.

Jesus.

Was this what some lucky assholes had to look forward to when they found a decent woman? Sleeping with Cassidy rivaled every notion I’d ever had of the concept of bliss.

She sighed and nestled closer to me, rubbing her cheek along my arm that she’d taken over as a pillow. My other arm, I realized, and focused on not moving it, was strapped over her, hugging me to her like I’d found a new favorite pillow.

Je-sus Christ.

I swallowed, afraid to wake her. I didn’t want to freak her out at our…our…hell, we were cuddling. If one of us were naked, we’d be—

Shit. That was not the right train of thought. My dick ached in my jeans and I clenched my teeth to not move a single muscle.

I lay there frozen with her until I heard it again. The faint thumps of noise that must have woken me to begin with. I’d always been a light sleeper, much to my younger brother’s dismay.

Footsteps. Careful, deliberate placement of feet. Like someone who wouldn’t want to be caught trespassing.

Fucking hell. One night was all we’d get of anything like a step ahead.

I turned my head ever so slightly, eyeing the window above the kitchen across the space. Windowless walls sheltered us, and I was thankful for the secrecy.

“Cassidy.” I breathed her name, not wanting to risk even a whisper.

In reply, she snuggled even closer, tucking her face next to mine. Maybe the start of my beard would rouse her, the friction of my stubble against such soft, smooth, creamy perfection? I jerked my chin a little to test the possibility.

She breathed a naughty sound and spread her palm up my chest to rest around my neck.

God. Dammit. I squinted my eyes shut as I heard more footsteps. On the cement. Were they looking in the front-door window? Ignoring the heat from Cassidy, I tried to place the sounds.
