Chapter 14

Anna

Ugh—that tree.

I woke up the next morning back in my own apartment to the Christmas tree in the corner of the living room, perfectly fit into that spot by the side table. Just like Lucy said.

I couldn’t believe she knew the measurements of my living room off the top of her head like that. Of course, the woman seemed to know me better than I knew myself… including that I was into shower sex. Or exhibitionistic, quick sessions getting me off in the middle of a tree farm.

Which was now all I could think of when I saw that tree in my living room. Because that wasn’t mortifying or anything. Going about getting ready, making breakfast in the morning, and getting turned on seeing a Christmas tree dressed up with lights and a ribbon, tinsel on the walls. Who the hell got turned on by tinsel?

Wasn’t really about the tinsel, was more about how Lucy had come back with me last night to help set up the tree, make sure you get your decorations up, and—well, she did. Brought more snickerdoodles and made warm drinks and talked about gossip in my family and in the office while we put up the tree, hung up the decorations. And then just like I’d committed to not letting her, I let her sit with me on the couch, close to my side, and just like I’d committed to not feeling, I felt heat blossoming through me as she laid a hand gently on my thigh—not moving, just settling there, softly claiming me.

And just like I’d committed to not doing, I took off my clothes and let her fuck me.

Or, worse—I didn’t let her fuck me, I let her make love to me. We took our time, relaxed into it, slow movements exploring each other’s bodies, not the breathless heat of the night before but soft, gentle play. Lucy figuring out every little thing of what I liked. Pillow talk in between… not rushing anything. Not a wild tumble of a dozen orgasms one after the other like in the books, but kind of… better? Like doing it solo, just with the added dimension of another person there, both of us dedicated to making the other one feel good.

I’d at least managed to pull my senses together enough to make sure she went home after and didn’t sleep at my place. And I only fell asleep regretting it a little bit, lying there in bed feeling how empty it was there and resolutely not caring that it was empty.

So of course I woke up in the morning and saw the damn tree and it set me back at zero. As luck would have it.

The way we’d gone at it last night… the very fact that we’d kept going at it at all. I was getting in too deep, too fast. I’d been right when I’d said I couldn’t keep having sex with her, and not just because it wouldn’t be fair to her, but because I was—well—susceptible.
