Chapter Eleven

“Rise and shine, baby, you need to get dressed. We need to get back to London.”

I roll onto my back with a moan. “Why are we in such a rush?”

He looks over his shoulder from his perch on the end of the bed where he’s pulling on his boots. “As much as I could look at that fine naked body of yours all day, I want it in my bed.”

Oh! “Is that right?”

“That’s right.”

“And what if I say no?”

He crawls onto the bed in his dark jeans and black T-shirt and lies above me, twinkling browns gazing down at me.

“You won’t,” he says, his minty breath too close, making it difficult for me to find sensibility.

“Oh, really?”

“Really, because I happen to know you can’t resist me.”

I have to force my hands to stay by my side instead of going rummaging under his T-shirt. “Hmm, you’ve got me. It’s your modesty. I’m so hot for it.”

In one fast move, he pins my hands to my sides with his legs and thrusts his tickling fingers under my arms.

“Get off me, Gregory! Get off me!”

I squirm beneath him but he doesn’t relent. My squirms turn to screams and as his tickling increases a laugh takes over my body. I’m heaving and panting but he still keeps going. “Stop! Please, stop!”

He halts his assault and I heave air into my chest. “Will you quit with the attitude?”

“I don’t have an attitude!”

“Wrong answer.” The torture recommences. His fingers are attacking my skin again and I’m squealing in response until the squealing turns back into a rib-aching laugh. “Stop! Please! Stop it!”

“Will you be nice to me?” This time he won’t give me a second to think, his fingers continue driving my fit of giggles. God, it feels good to laugh.

“Yes! Yes. I’ll be nice to you.”

He stops. I scowl at him once the pain in my ribs has subsided and he flashes me his most mischievous grin, white perfect teeth and all. “Good girl. Come on.” He jumps off the bed and offers me a hand.

“What’re we doing?”

“You are going to get dressed.”

He pulls me towards him and drops a kiss on the tip of my nose. “Then I’m going to take you home and make all of this up to you. Today is all about Scarlett.”

“You mean, you’re apologising to me.”

He cocks his head to one side on a playful pout. “Do I need to show you who’s boss again?”

I shake my head quickly. “So do I get to choose what we do?”

“Erm, no. I said today is all about Scarlett not up to Scarlett. But don’t worry, I plan on making up to you all day. What else are Sundays for?”

Sunday. Day eight.

“What’s wrong, baby?”

“Nothing... I was just thinking—”

“That John Harrison told us five to seven days. I know.”

“How can you be so calm?”

“It’s life, Scarlett.”

“I’m not even going to pretend I understand that comment.”

“Look at me. Stop biting your lip. Tell me what else John said.”

I shrug.

“He said the longer it takes for the CPS to make a decision the better.
