Chapter Eleven

Cole woke in the middle of the night, still on the living room floor, naked and alone. Falling asleep after sex, with a woman still wrapped in his arms, wasn’t something he did. Ever.

Where was Daisy?

He rose and crept to Daisy’s room, peeking inside. In the dark he could make out a lump in the shape of a human under the blankets. She had gone to bed and left him on the living room floor to wake up cold and alone?

Harsh.

The least she could have done was give him a blanket, if not a pillow as well. He would never have left her in the middle of the floor if she’d fallen asleep.

Or would he?

Hadn’t he had more encounters than he cared to admit where he’d left in the night without so much as a good-bye and a phone number where he could be reached? Hadn’t he slept with a woman and then not thought about how she would feel after he left?

He might be the playboy in this relationship, but Daisy had just done a pretty stellar job of playing him. As much as he wanted to be annoyed with her tactic, he couldn’t be. They’d agreed that being intimate wouldn’t change anything between them, so did she really owe him a wake-up call or a blanket?

Nope. If he admitted the truth to himself, he was more annoyed that she’d been the one to get up and leave before he could.

He collected his clothes from the floor and returned to his own room, then tossed and turned for what felt like hours. Here he was in a soft bed unable to sleep, but earlier he’d practically been in a coma on the carpet.

Why could he sleep better on the floor with Daisy tucked into his side than he could on a bed alone?

…

Daisy sat beside Cole, facing the stage. Today was the second and last day of the Chicago bridal expo and the day they would be a part of the bridal-fashion show dedicated to showcasing the possible wedding gowns the public could vote on for Daisy to wear on their big day.

They’d both slept late and had barely managed to make it down to the bridal expo in time for the event to start. Now they nursed the strongest coffees he could find. Aside from being tired, he wasn’t feeling too bad. Daisy, on the other hand, looked as if she were ready to crawl back into bed at any moment.

“You doing okay?” he asked, whispering in her ear. His arm rested on the back of her chair as if they were a real couple, cuddling in public.

“Never better.”

“Good to hear it. I thought you might be a little hungover from last night.”

“I’m fine. Just a little sore.” She took a sip of her coffee, scowling at the taste.

“Sorry about that.” He winked. “I’ll try to be more gentle next time. We never were good at making it to a comfortable bed, were we?”

“I meant from standing at the booth all day yesterday.
