They sat up in bed, eating everything Kaatje could rustle up from the refrigerator. “I don’t know what kind of hold you have over me,” Laurie said, “but I’ve never been more focused on sex in my life.”

“Tell me about that.”

“I just did. I think about you and I start thinking about having sex with you. I hardly ever think of you with clothes on,” she admitted, chuckling.

“Does that make you think about…oh, I don’t know…being gay?” She stared at Laurie with comically wide eyes.

“I’m done with that. I barely have time to squeeze in a few minutes of fantasizing about doing it with you before I fall asleep every night.”

“Interesting.” Kaatje got up and started to gather their empty plates and containers. She didn’t say a word as she busied herself for quite a few minutes.

“I said something wrong.”

Silently, Kaatje looked up at her.

“Come back to bed.” Laurie patted the surface. “Please?”

She didn’t rush to comply, but Kaatje finally meandered over. “Yeah?”

“I still don’t think you understand how busy I am.” Kaatje rolled her eyes but Laurie continued. “I mean it. I have to squeeze about twenty-four hours of work into an eighteen-hour day. The only time I have to reflect is when I force myself to shut off the pile driver that’s slamming around inside my head and focus on you. I lie in bed and write you a note, then try as hard as I can to keep those other thoughts out. You just don’t know how hard that is.” She looked like one cross look would make her break down, so Kaatje took her in her arms and cooed gently.

“I hate that you let yourself be this consumed by work. It’s not good for you, Moppie, it’s really not.”

Letting out a sigh, Laurie raised her head. “Moppie?”

Kaatje’s tan had faded, and no longer provided cover for her blushing cheeks. She nodded. “I hadn’t planned on that coming out.” She hated being such an open book, but she’d never been able to hide her thoughts or her feelings.

“What’s it mean?”

“It’s a pet name. Like ‘honey’ or ‘sweetie.’”

“I like it. Moppie,” she repeated, trying it out.

“Would my Moppie like to get dressed and take a walk around? I have an awful lot to show you.”

“Sure. Maybe we can get dessert.”

Kaatje touched the tip of her nose. “You get two. I have to put those curves back on you.”
