Chapter 07

***Zeke***

I don’t mind doing the dishes. She offered to do it since I cooked but I damn well know she was going to use it to delay getting ready for bed. I told her to just grab a shower instead. We made a lot of headway today with the both of us admitting we felt more for each other than just friends all those years ago.

For me that’s something solid. Man, do I wish things were different. We not only lost all those years but I can’t seem to wrap my mind around the fact it was my brother who sent her away...away from me. I brought the envelopes he put in the locker with me, but I still haven’t read them.

I hate saying it but I’m actually afraid to. What if the letter says something that makes me see Laudy through different eyes again? I just got over my raw feelings of her coming back into my life after leaving. I just couldn’t take another hit like that. And for fuck’s sake...what the hell was my brother thinking running her out of our hometown and dropping her at the airport, and giving her cash to get her ass on a plane?

Right now, I choose not to care. Right now, all I need is a hot shower to wash it all away and to share a bed with a person that means a whole helluva lot, and who I’ve missed more than words can describe. Making a quick round to make sure everything is locked up tight, I stroll into the bedroom. Laudy comes out of the bathroom at the same time.

Her hair is wet from the shower she just took and she’s wearing hot pink pineapple pajama shorts that make her legs look long and delicious. And the way her tits are hugged by a matching pink tank top is really making my dick hard. Her nipples are saluting me through the thin fabric and she’s most definitely not wearing a bra. Everything about her is taunting me, inviting, making me want to swoop her off her feet and make her mine...but I can’t.

I damn well won’t. Because I’ve got my mind set on making her mine the right way. Like every masterpiece I’ve created. I used to grab a chunk of wood, start immediately and see how I sculpt it into something.

But nowadays I spend time to really see how the raw piece has the ability to turn into something more. That’s what I’m doing. When I see Laudy, I see everything. Every possibility. That’s why I’m not rushing anything. Because what we have together is going to be built on a solid foundation.

Her eyes slide to dick level and they widen at the way the front of my jeans are tenting. “I can’t hide the way you obviously make me feel, Laudy. But I promise nothing is going to happen tonight. Well, nothing more than the both of us getting into bed together to get a good night sleep that is.
