Chapter Eleven

Morgan woke me up on purpose at eleven a.m. the next morning.

I say on purpose, because there was no way she was making that much noise without doing it deliberately. I came out to the kitchen to find her slamming cookie sheets into the drawer below the stove.

I hadn’t known that we had any of those around.

“Oh my god... what are you doing?”

“Just a little spring cleaning,” she replied, banging a muffin pan against a cake pan.

“It’s November. Either you’re early or really late.” I sat on a bar stool, realizing this was going to take a while.

She ignored me. For another twenty minutes.

Great. I kind of wished that I could suffer from hangovers so I’d have a reason to pop a few aspirin and go back to bed. For someone who wanted me to get out of bed so badly, Morgan certainly didn’t seem to have a need for me.

“Do you plan on ignoring me much longer?” I asked, trying to spin an unfortunate orange on the tip of my finger like I had skills or something. All I ended up doing was shooting the soon-to-be-damaged fruit across the kitchen, almost popping Morgan in the back of the head.

She turned to glare at me.

“If so, I’m sure I can be just as ignored by some of my clients, and get paid for the time I spend dicking around.”

Morgan turned on the garbage disposal. Well, that was certainly an answer.

I retreated while I still could and took an easy-to-defend position in my office. What the hell was up Morgan’s ass? It had to be my date with Linc, but I didn’t understand that any more than the more unlikely reasons. Wrap your brain around that one.

Hell, it’s not we were dating or anything. We had an understanding. And I sure as hell wasn’t wearing a chastity belt—we’d had conversations about my sex life and she didn’t seem bothered by any of that, so I just didn’t get it.

I might have to rethink the whole sleeping with women thing—they were too complicated. Ah, who was I kidding? That would be like turning down a dream vacation to Italy because it took too long to fly there.

I picked up my cordless and called one of my favorite customers.

“Dang, girl. Did you forget about the time change again?”

I glanced at the clock. “Shit, sorry Vera. At least I called after eight this time.”

Vera chuckled and I could hear the sound of sheets rustling.

“Now you know,” her voice dipped low and sultry “I’d never mind waking up to you, but I’d definitely expect some spooning afterwards. You keep that in mind, Cookie, next time you interrupt my dreams.” A smile split my face in two. I loved Vera, even if she never gave up trying to get in my pants. I knew it was never going to happen and so did she. It was just our thing, I guess.

I laughed and rested my head back on my chair.

“I’m not kidding! I was having a good one too.
