Chapter Nine

It was close to five when they pulled back into their drive. They rearranged the bikes and pulled her car into the garage so they could close the door. Then they had her unpack the suitcase and stowed it in the walk-in closet that was achingly bare of clothes. She sat the picture of her parents on the bedside table and stared at it for several long seconds. She missed her parents. Times like this, she could have used her mom’s careful thoughts on what she needed to do.

Parker drew in a deep breath and slowly let it out. She was on her own with this. Well, maybe that wasn’t quite fair. The guys were offering their support in more ways than one. She had to give them credit. It wouldn’t work, though. She didn’t see how it possibly could.

“Parker?” Shane stepped back into the room with a concerned expression on his face. “Are you okay, baby?”

“Yes. I’m fine.”

“Allen is cooking us dinner. Do you have any preferences? Is there anything you don’t like?”

“I’m really not that picky. I’ll eat most anything.”

“Allen was worried that there might be something that would upset your stomach now.”

“Oh.” She was surprised they had thought of that. “So far, I haven’t been sick, really. Just tired, mostly.”

“It will be close to an hour before it’s ready. Why don’t you take a nap? Do you want me to rub your back while you relax?”

Parker blinked at him. Did he just offer to rub her back? She didn’t know what to say. He stood waiting for her to answer him and she was at a loss.

“Parker?”

“I–I think I’ll lie down for a little while. You don’t have to rub my back though if you don’t want to. I’m fine.”

“Let’s get you comfortable then.” He led her over to the bed and had her sit down while he knelt at her feet and removed her boots. Then he went to work on her jeans.

“I don’t have to get naked to take a quick nap, Shane.” She smiled and shook her head.

“You’ll feel better without anything constricting your breathing.”

“So getting me naked isn’t for your benefit at all.”

“Well, I’ll admit to a certain fascination with your body, but it really is so you will rest better.” He winked at her and continued removing her jeans. He left her panties on but removed her blouse one button at a time.

Once he had her blouse off, he lifted his eyebrows and nodded at her bra. He was right, she would rest better without the bra, but did she really want to leave herself that vulnerable with him?

“Lose the bra, baby. I promise not to molest you, unless of course you ask me to.”

Parker sighed and unfastened the front closure before slipping out of the constricting material. Ever since she had found out she was pregnant, her bras had felt a size too small. It had to be her imagination, right?

“Lie down on your stomach for me, Parker. I’ll rub your back until you go to sleep.
