Daphne held her breath as Cord took the first tentative bite of the pasta dish she'd prepared. She hadn't been joking about her cooking skills. She'd grown up in fully staffed households and boarding schools. Learning to whip up a home cooked meal hadn't even crossed her mind until her first semester at Caltech. Thankfully Kate had taken Daphne under her wing and taught her some of the more important skills she'd failed to develop over the years. Things like cooking, cleaning, ironing. Basic skills she really needed but had never been taught. They'd actually become friends over their shared microwave and contraband hot plate.

“It's good,” Cord declared, his voice carrying a hint of surprise.

Daphne smiled, her tummy trembling happily at his compliment. “Thanks.”

They sat on opposite ends of the dining table. Despite the distance, Daphne could smell the brisk cedar scent that always seemed to cling to him. She yearned to bury her nose against his neck and inhale the smell deep into her lungs. Would it send her over the edge? Probably, she acknowledged, squeezing her thighs tightly together. Her sex pulsed at the vision of being so close to him, of pressing her breasts against him and licking at the curve of his throat.

They'd been eating in silence for a few minutes when Cord finally spoke. "I was thinking of driving into town later."

Hope swelled inside her. She grinned at him. "Really? Well maybe we could see a movie or something."

Cord's face tightened. "I meant alone."

"Oh." Embarrassment burned her face. The brief happiness she'd experienced at his compliment earlier collapsed. "Sorry."

"No, I should have been clear." He paused before reluctantly adding, "You can come, I guess."

"No, thanks." She faked a disinterested smile. "I should probably catch up on some reading and return emails."

"If you're sure…"

"I'm sure." She stabbed her fork into the pasta. "Will you be gone long?"

He looked uncomfortable. "Well I was thinking of having a drink at the Rockin' R so I may not be home tonight."

Pain lanced her gut at the thought of him with another woman. "I see."

"I don't think it would be appropriate for me to bring someone home."

So he was going in to town to fuck someone else. Daphne tried not to let her emotions slip. It was obvious he wasn't ever going to be interested in her. Time to nip that silly, foolish infatuation of hers in the bud, it seemed.

She lowered her fork to the table. "You know what? Kate left me the keys to her car. I'll just take off after dinner and find a room at one of the B&B's in town."

Cord leaned forward in his chair. “I didn't mean—I just thought—”

Daphne waved her hand dismissively. She plastered a smile on her face. “Don't worry about it. You've been really patient hosting us for the last two weeks. I'm sure you're used to your privacy. I'll make myself scarce this weekend.”

No longer hungry, she gathered up her plate and glass and stood. She paused in the doorway to the kitchen.
