Lena

When Lena rolled over the next morning, she flung her hand out to find Tank, but his side of the bed was cool to the touch. A sliver of self-doubt twisted her stomach up in knots. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. None of it really mattered, because what had happened last night was amazing, and just what she needed. And if it was only the one time, that was okay. She’d anticipated it.

“So why are you acting so weird?” she muttered out loud, covering her face with a pillow. She quickly nabbed her cell phone off the floor and sat on the edge of the bed. There were no calls or messages from Tank. I’m hopeless.

She owed her bestie a text. Her fingers flew across the keyboard, filling Fe in on all the dirty details while she processed the fact that Tank’s clothing no longer lingered on her bedroom floor. But neither of them had a serious conversation on what they expected from each other. Wait… there were expectations. Remember? I’m too busy and freaked out about what’s going on with those lowlifes. And I needed last night. It was a perfect distraction—no ties, just sex. But something other than sex had happened. Not wanting to deal with it at that moment, she pushed the thought out of her mind.

Anyway, it was better to play it cool. So what if Tank didn’t stick around? Neither of them had discussed what this meant for them, and there was no required lingering time for a booty call.

Lena threw the phone onto the bed and went into the bathroom to get ready for the day. She refused to lie around moping, and regardless of whether or not Tank would even text her after the fact, her growling stomach wasn’t going to wait for an answer. She also didn’t want to deal with the flood of texts from Felicia without some carbs in her system.

After showering and dressing, Lena padded into the kitchen and came to an abrupt halt. Tank stood shirtless behind her flat top griddle, flipping pancakes. A plate of cooling bacon and poured orange juice sat on the table.

As if sensing her, he looked over his shoulder and grinned.

“Morning, sleepyhead.”

“What are you doing?”

“Making you breakfast.”

“Besides my mom, no one’s ever made me breakfast.”

He laughed. “Then you’re damn overdue.”

“I thought you left.” Leaning against the doorway, she watched him work in her kitchen as if they did this kind of thing all the time. “I didn’t expect you to still be here.”

“Really?” The grin on his face widened. “Good to know what you think of me.”

“But I don’t have much in my fridge. I’m just confused.”

“No, darlin’, you’re still dazed from last night.” The heat in his eyes as they ran over the length of her body made her stomach flutter. “I went to the grocery store. They have food there.”

She swallowed a nervous giggle. “I know that.”

They both laughed as she went to one of the higher cabinets and took out a plate while he finished flipping the pancakes.
