Chapter Nine

Kenzie woke up first and as she blinked she looked around the apartment. This was a familiar feeling, only this time she was wearing some clothes.

She glanced over at Tyler and was glad to see he was sleeping soundly.

She really had to pee, and as she slid out of bed she was extra careful not to jostle him about too much. She wanted to let him sleep as long as possible.

The room was a little cold, and the bathroom was even colder.

For some reason she’d expected it to be messy, but it was tidy and neat and there wasn’t anything that looked out of place. It would seem that twelve years in the military had made him a very neat person.

When she was done she left the small bathroom and went to the side of the bed and pulled on her yoga pants. She didn’t want to leave before she knew he was better and okay to be alone, but she was wide awake. Instead of slipping back into bed she went to the kitchen and looked at his coffee pot. She was grateful he had one of the ones that used coffee pods and she clicked it on. Some coffee machines looked more like time machines and had more buttons and features than a full service coffee bar. At least this one was simple and she knew how to use it.

She was just looking through the selection of coffees he had when she heard his voice.

“Kenzie?”

“Hi.” She turned toward the bed and looked at him. “How are you?”

“Better,” he said as he sat up and stretched. “I half expected you to be gone.”

“A part of me thought it would be better, but I didn’t want to leave without seeing how you were doing.”

“Is that the only reason you didn’t want to leave?” he asked as he looked at her, his eyebrow raised slightly.

“No,” she confessed.

“Why else?”

“I wanted to stay.” She shrugged. “The last morning we had together was less than ideal, but I wanted to stay this time. Maybe have a better morning and a better memory.”

“Is that also the reason you’re out there and I’m in here? Because of how awkward it was?”

“Not entirely,” she said as she leaned against the table. “Last time was the morning after. Today was different. There was no nakedness and no sex,” she added.

“True.” He nodded. “Just me freaking out and crying like a bitch.”

“I don’t remember that.” She grinned. “I just remember crashing here with you and then waking up wanting coffee.”

He smiled gratefully at her. “I don’t have all that many different ones, but have whichever you like, and whatever’s in the fridge.”

“I don’t really eat breakfast,” she admitted. “Not very healthy I know, but I’m just not hungry in the mornings.”

“But coffee?” he asked as he climbed out of bed and stretched.

“Coffee is my friend.” She nodded, grinning as she appreciated the view. His body was so strong and cut it was impossible not to stare. “Sorry.” She blushed and looked away when he looked up and caught her staring.
