Chapter Four

The annoying beep of the alarm woke Rory out of a dead sleep, and she silently cursed the little black box as she rolled out of Zach’s warm embrace and reached for the snooze button. She could only stay in bed for five more minutes, but in Zach’s arms, it was totally worth it.

They’d both fallen asleep after he’d insisted she cover him like a blanket, but sometime in the middle of the night, he’d carried her to the bedroom and loved her body slowly.

The second time lacked all of the urgency and foreplay of the first, but it was much more intimate. He’d laid her on the bed, crawled on top of her, and entered her eager channel in one smooth, controlled glide. It had been a joining of seasoned lovers, not an impulsive one-night stand.

As much as she hated to admit it, she wanted to stay in his arms forever.

“Good morning, Princess.”

She looked up to see him smiling down at her.

“Good morning,” she replied. “I’m sorry, but I only have five more minutes, and then I have to get ready for work.”

“Forget work,” he said, placing a chaste kiss on her lips. “Stay in bed with me all day.”

God, she wanted to, but that was exactly why she couldn’t.

“I can’t,” she laughed. “Responsibilities, food, electricity and all that.”

“Fine,” he conceded. “How about dinner then? I’m having a barbeque tonight at my house, and I’d really like you to meet my cl—family.”

“Your family?” she asked, pulling back to get a better look at him. “Don’t you think that’s a little premature?”

“No, and they’re not actually my family, well, except for my cousin Aiden, but he won’t be there,” he explained. “It’s the guys I work with. The owner of Club Ryan, and a few of the other guys who work there, are my most trusted friends. We’re all really close.”

“I don’t know…”

It was too much—too soon—and yet she really wanted to go.

To his credit, Zach didn’t try to cajole her into giving a positive reply, or force her into answering sooner. His patience, and seemingly carefree attitude, weighed heavily in her decision.

“Okay,” she finally agreed.

“Awesome,” he cheered.

The alarm chose that second to sound again, and she turned it off and left the bed. Zach followed her lead, and after a few more toe-curling kisses, and a detailed list of directions to his home, she said goodbye to him at the door.

As soon as he left, the fear she still carried around tried to douse her excitement, but she refused to give in to the negative thoughts. Zach was an amazing man, and she liked being with him. While she thought meeting his family was a little extreme, she would like to meet his friends.

Why? It’s just a one-night stand!

Except, it didn’t feel like a one-night stand, and now she wasn’t sure if she wanted it to be one. Zach had been right when he’d said there was something between them, and she wanted to—probably—see where their relationship might go.
