“Hey, sweetheart. How’d it go?”

“Hmm. Great.”

“I woke you.”

“Yeah. What time is it?”

“Six.”

“Oh, thanks, then. I was exhausted and I forgot to set the alarm. Are you home?”

“Not yet but I’m headed that way. God, it was a long night. Can I bring you a latte?”

“Would you?”

“Are you kidding? I’m leaving here in ten.”

“See ya in a few.”

I got up and showered. I was getting dressed when I heard him come in. I ran to greet him and he looked perfect, as usual. Hair all messy, wearing blue scrubs and those running shoes he loved. He had that nice scruff on his face that was adorable. I grabbed his cheeks and rubbed mine against his.

“You sure are a sight,” I told him. “Wish I didn’t have to go to work this morning.”

He took my hand and slid it down between his legs and said, “Me too.” His erection was bulging against my hand.

“Pearce, that’s not fair.” I sounded like a whining critter.

“For who, you or me? ’Cause, baby, the way I see it right now, it’s not fair for me. I’m a bit uncomfortable at the moment.”

“Will it always be like this between us?”

“It is for my parents.”

“How do you know?”

“Start watching them when you’re around them and then you tell me.”

The biceps and deltoids in his arms stood out as he handed me my coffee.

“Thanks.”

He leaned in to kiss me. “Are you going to tell me or do I have to tickle it out of you.”

I beamed from one ear to the next. “It was awesome. I think I killed it.”

“Woohoo!” he yelled as he picked me up in the air and twirled me around. “You go get ’em, babe!”

We both laughed. I looked at the clock and we knew I had to get a move on.

“My house tonight?”

“Yeah. You on call?”

“Nope. I need to get you my call schedule. I’ll email it to you today.”

“Okay. Please stay while I finish getting dressed.”

He followed me back to my room as I threw on some clothes and he looked in my closet as he sat on the bed.
