Rescue

“Are you sure it’s okay to stay tonight?”

Cole laughed at her and said, “Of course. Why would you think otherwise? It’s my house, who would have a problem with it?”

Typical of her to put her foot in her mouth again, but her nerves were racing. “You have to work tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow night. That’s a long time from now. More than twenty-four hours.”

She wrinkled her nose and followed him into the house, her overnight bag on her shoulder. When he’d stopped over earlier this morning with flowers and chocolate, she’d thought she’d die from embarrassment over the way she looked.

Previously, they’d made no plans for today, and she was okay with that. She didn’t need to be coddled or know where he was every moment just because they’d had sex. So after she woke, she took a nice hot bubble bath, soaking her achy body and relaxing, dreaming about how wonderful the night had been. If her hand roamed over some sensitive areas of her body a few times thinking of him, it was her little secret.

Then after her bath, she dressed in warm cozy clothing and grabbed her book. She was so engrossed in the story that she didn’t even know he’d knocked at the door. When he walked in and saw her dressed the way she was, she just wanted to crawl in a hole and die.

“Don’t you need to rest though? You said you nap before you go in on your first day.”

“You’re all adorable when you talk business. Maybe you can nap with me before you leave then.”

She blushed, there was no way around it. It was all uncharted territory to her. “If you’d like that.”

“I would. Rene,” he said, pulling her bag off her shoulder and setting it on the floor. “Relax now. I’m no different than I was yesterday. You don’t have to act all bashful around me. I sort of expected you to be looser now, not completely wound up tight.”

“Sorry. This is all new to me.”

She didn’t want to be clingy or needy, but she wasn’t exuding all sorts of confidence right now, either.

He laughed quickly and squeezed her sides with his hands. “I just want you to act like yourself. Like you’ve been doing for weeks,” he said.

“But you’ve seen me naked now. And we did some things that, thinking back, make me a bit embarrassed. Well not really, because I really liked what we did. Maybe it’s more that I’m surprised at the things I said and what you made me really feel. No, that isn’t it. I knew it would be good—”

He put his finger to her lips. “Stop rambling. Take a deep breath. Let it come on its own. Don’t force anything.”

“I’m not. I won’t.”

“Let’s bring your stuff upstairs now. You can put it away, or you can leave it here in case you change your mind and want to go home later.”

“I wouldn’t do that. I’m not a tease.”

He took a deep breath, blew it out and looked at the ceiling, then back to her.
