Simon sat at the bar staring out the kitchen window. Toni had refused to open her door, and he was feeling more miserable by the minute. Having his testicles forcibly removed with a rusty knife was too good for him at the moment.

What kind of clod was he to have taken advantage of Toni at her weakest moment? She’d been spotting. She was scared to death to lose her baby, and all he could think about was how good she tasted, how smooth her skin felt beneath his touch, and how he wanted nothing more than to make love to her all night long.

He looked up as Matt and A.J. drove up, cringing at the thought of telling them what he had done. Then again, he wasn’t stupid. Better to keep his mouth shut.

Matt walked in, worry evident in his eyes. “Where’s Toni?”

Simon gestured toward the bedroom. “She went to bed,” he muttered.

“Was she doing okay?” Matt persisted.

“Yeah, I think so. She talked to her doc and he didn’t sound too concerned. Just wanted her to take it easy.”

“It’s good she went to bed,” A.J. said. “I’m sure bonehead falling on her today had a lot to do with the spotting.”

Simon scowled at the mention of Mike. “He doesn’t watch out for her like he should.”

“I have to agree with you there,” Matt said, nodding his head slowly. “I don’t know what she sees in him to be honest. I’m tempted to have a talk with her.”

“Maybe so. You’re her brother after all,” A.J. spoke up. “Maybe you can talk some sense into her.”

“I think she’s having a hard time right now,” Matt said regretfully. “I feel to blame. I’m not sure it was the right time to talk about marriage with Steph.”

Simon remained silent, not agreeing or disagreeing with that sentiment. In truth, he did agree that the timing was rotten. He had no doubt Toni was dealing with a lot. Adapting to her pregnancy not to mention moving out of the house she’d called home since she was child. He wanted to be angry with Matt, but he couldn’t begrudge him his happiness.

“I’m heading to bed,” he announced, unable to stand it any longer. The kiss was haunting him. He had replayed it over and over in his head until it became one continuous stream.

He said goodnight and went straight to the bathroom. He needed a shower. A very cold shower.
