CHAPTER SIX
* Dan *
Waking up with Katy in my arms again made me realize that I needed this to be the way every single morning began for the rest of my life. Of course, it was too early to think with that sort of permanence, but I couldn’t help it. I was losing control.
On the other hand, I was in complete control. For once I wasn’t just driving my father’s company while working on my own technology pursuits. I had personal focus. I needed to make Katy okay with living the rich life with me, and then convince her to marry me.
Simple, I thought to myself. No problem at all. Even though she basically said flat out that fancy things make her uncomfortable.
But there must be a way. Maybe she just needed to read a few self-help books, or have me at her side. Maybe I could just go to those sorts of things alone and rush home to her afterward. There was always a way to work out these puzzles.
My sweet darling was beginning to stir in my arms. “I’m going to go make coffee, alright, baby?”
She nodded against my chest, then stuck her bottom lip out dramatically as I got out of bed. “Chilly without my Dan,” she murmured.
She called me hers. My heart nearly exploded. I chuckled while throwing on pants and a t-shirt, going out to the kitchen to put the coffee on.
Sometimes I had it set to go with a timer, but I didn’t always know where I’d be sleeping. This condo was fabulous for when I was working late, or stuck at various events, and it wasn’t worth the time to drive north to my house just to sleep and shower.
I saw Katy wave from the end of the hall, wearing just my gigantic t-shirt as she tiptoed into the washroom. Pouring the coffee, I realized I didn’t even know how she took it. I still had so much to learn about the brand new love of my life.
There was a tap at the door. I opened it to see my assistant Laura, with several folders in her hand.
She swept into the kitchen, dropping the paperwork on the marble island. “Oh good, you got my text,” she said, grabbing a mug of coffee. “The Jasper meeting has been moved to ten, so I’m glad you didn’t stay at your house last night. Since you’re the new head of the Board of Directors, they’re expecting you to give a speech about the history of your company. Now, it can be very short, but–”
She heard the bathroom door open down the hall, and spun around to see Katy. To be honest, I’m not sure which one of them looked more shocked.
“Katy, this is my assistant Laura,” I said quickly.
She just stared, practically unblinking for a second. “Head of the Board of Directors,” Katy said in a tiny voice. “Your company. You made it sound like you were just some regular business guy.”
Laura stared back and forth between the two of us.
