STORMY

“Are you sure you’ll be okay with Finn?” Griff has been asking me the same question in a variety of ways at least once a day this week.

“I’m positive. The big oaf and I have things to do. It’s my last few days of being a lady of leisure,” I joke. I’m cuddled into Griff’s side on the couch, my head in the crook of his neck, and his fingers sliding up and down my arm in various patterns. Finn is sitting next to me, head on my lap in its usual place. I’ve got my hand on the inside of Griff’s thigh, my other on Finn, scratching his ear while he edges even closer than I thought humanly possible.

“I can cancel. They’ve got enough guys on this trip.” That’s news to me. He’s worried. I’m not sure what about since I don’t plan on doing a lot minus open my books for new clients. Which, let me tell you, is going to be a pain in the ass. The thought alone makes me want to re-think things. It’s the booking an appointment and not showing up, the consultations where a box-dye brunette wants to become platinum blonde in one day, and then there are always the older ladies who come in asking for perms. I’ll do all of them, especially the last, regardless of the smell, but I’ll be grinning and bearing it the entire time. Sadly, it doesn’t look like I’m going to have a choice if I’d like to keep a cushion in my bank account while figuring out what to do next.

“Why would you cancel? This has been on the books forever.” Griff has a wall calendar in the kitchen with the dates he’ll be out of town. It’s at least one weekend a month for the next six months. I’ve looked and brought my book out with my clients and started working on rescheduling them when I could, going so far as to work on Sundays. That way, when Griff is out of town, I can work the whole weekend and save the rest of my Saturday mornings for him.

“Not really thrilled with the idea of leaving you yet.” Insert my inner girl squeal. Trying to control how happy his words make me is not going to be easy. The harder part is holding back throwing my body into his, climbing onto his lap, and watching his family jewels—well, they’re even harder. Finn gets excited and jumps down off the couch, barks once, vying for our attention. Too bad, baby boy. There’s a man who has it all—my eyes, my body, my heart, and my soul. It should say a lot about the fact that Griff has given me more in the couple of short weeks I’ve known him than Zach did in the years we were together. I should feel horrible about the feelings I’ve developed for Griff because they’re so much more than I ever expected or experienced.

“I love that. Really, I do,
