“Want to go grab some lunch after you clean up that coffee mess?” She looks down at her shirt without making me let her go. Her white shirt has a nice brown stain now.

“I have a shirt you can wear,” I offer excitedly. Seeing her in one of my shirts will no doubt send me over the edge and back into the shower.

“Can we go back to my house so I can change?”

“Of course.”

Now that she’s let me kiss her and hasn’t pulled away and changed her mind, I want to do it more.

I take a chance and lean in. She smiles. I smile.

“Mommy?” her smile fades all too quickly for my liking, but I get it.

I move away from her, picking up my t-shirt and putting it on. She watches me dress. I want to tell her that she’s seen me naked and it’s only fair that I see her too, but have a feeling that wall would go right up and I’d be shut out again. So I’ll bite my tongue and wait for drunken Katelyn to return.

She turns the lock and opens the door to a very angry Peyton. She’s standing there in a dark blue football jersey with her hands on her hips.

“What’re you doing?”

“Talking.”

With our lips, I want to add, but bite back my childish comment. The kids don’t need to know what we were doing in the bathroom.

“About what?”

“Adult stuff.”

Peyton raises her eyebrow and all I can think is that Katelyn has got a tough road ahead of her.

Peyton is definitely calling the shots right now, and that’s not good.

“We were talking about what you, Elle and Quinn need for Christmas so when we meet with Santa, we can give him the appropriate list.”

Peyton’s mouth drops open and her eyes light up. Katelyn looks at me. I shrug. It used to work with Quinn when he’d get moody.

“Elle, mommy is making the Christmas list,” Peyton yells as she stalks back down the hall.

“Nice save.”

“Whatever works. I’m going to get changed.” I cup her cheek and let my hand linger there for a heartbeat or two. She’s going to have to give me some guidelines because I don’t want to overstep the boundaries that are in place. I know I won’t touch her in front of the kids, but now that I’ve had uninterrupted minutes and feel pretty confident that she’s not running anytime soon, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to keep my hands to myself when she’s near.

I need to find a resolve.

I keep my hands buried deep in my pockets as I walk side-by-side next to Katelyn. We stay back while the kids run up ahead of us. Her arm brushes mine, making me wonder if she wants to hold my hand.

And as much as I want that, I don’t want to put her in a position of being questioned. She has to know there isn’t a woman alive that can hold a candle to her. She has every ounce of my attention and more.
