âWe should make fairy crowns.â Micah takes a bite of her cinnamon roll, kicking her feet on the stool, a frosting smile on her face.
âI love that idea. Iâll make you one that is extra glittery if you want.â
âYouâre so fun, Honey.â
My heart flutters. I give her a wink, and finish washing off the countertop, then flick some water from the faucet at her messy face. âYouâre fun, too, Sunny.â
I find a little plastic bag to hold a stockpile of hair elastics. Call it an instinct, but as Micah tells me all the reasons princesses are tougher than people think, I go into autopilot and start gathering up the odds and ends.
Maybe Finn wonât appreciate my intrusion, but Iâve learned to trust my gut, and something is telling me the guy could use a break today. That, and when the rumor mill reached me that Finn Walker called in, I had a moment of daring, a need to be a knight in shining armor.
Ugh. I like him. Undeniably. Unavoidably.
I even checked with Steve about the rules on non-professional relationships between the crew and documentary subjects. He gave me a strange look, said itâs a bit of paperwork, but the crew is all about the natural course of life. If relationships build, they want them to build, and they want to catch it on film.
All those cautious steps Iâve tried to take are flying out the window, and Iâm not sure if Iâll crash and burn, or begin something amazing.
I shoot a few of the elastics at Micah, then become every parentâs dream and teach her how to arrange them on her fingers to do the same, drawing out a belly laugh for the books.
âI mustâve missed a good joke.â
My body jolts into awareness. Finn steps into the kitchen, hair tousled and damp from a shower, bare feet, dark jeans, and a plain T-shirt that embraces those shoulders in ways that leave me weirdly jealous of an article of clothing.
He takes in the kitchen, a bit of red blooms over his face. âJaz, tell me you arenât cleaning my house.â
âIâm not cleaning your house.â
He scrubs his cheeks, groaning. Micah laughs at him.
Finn goes around the counter, tickles Micahâs neck, then digs into the box of honeybuns. âMight as well enjoy this since weâll never see each other after today because Iâm never showing my face at the studio again.â
He growls through a big bite, smiling when his kid snickers at him. He does very little to get this girl to smile, and it causes annoying, melty, gushy heat to spread . . . everywhere.
I click my tongue, and fold the washcloth over the faucet. âSo dramatic. I thought we were friends Finnigan, and friends donât let friends have morning meltdowns alone.â
âFine. Iâll chill.â Finn shakes his head, exasperated. Or is he? Thereâs a whisperâa glimmerâof a smile on those lips and I want to explore this deeper.
I shouldnât have come. Because a full smile might cause me to lose all
