“I need Liliana’s contact information so I can handle the Stubbs situation.”
“Ok, I’ll be fast.”
I plant a quick kiss on her lips before I head towards the showers. This is going to be the quickest shower of my life. I want to get Macy home before she can change her mind again.
There’s a towel wrapped around my waist as I make my way over to my little cubby. I find Macy sitting in my chair in front of my cubby. She’s running her fingers over the pictures I have hanging along the side. They’re all pictures of us.
I know it’s probably weird to have pictures of me and my ex in my cubby when we broke up before I even started playing in this stadium, but I always run my fingers over the photos before I go out on the field. It’s my little ritual.
“Ma’am, I don’t think you’re supposed to be going through the player’s cubbies.” I fold my arms over my chest and mock glare at her.
“Why do you still have these?” She asks quietly.
Instead of responding to her, I lift her out of my chair and take a seat, situating her on my lap.
“I told you. I never stopped loving you and I’ve had a picture of us in my locker since I met you. I couldn’t stand the thought of not having it there,” I say softly, looping my arms around her waist.
“Since before we started dating?” Her brows raise in surprise.
“Yeah… Charlie took a photo of us and I begged her to give me a copy.” I feel my cheeks heat with embarrassment, but I don’t say anything else.
“That’s adorable.” She places her hand on my bare chest and stares deep into my eyes. “Are you ready to go?”
“I should probably get dressed first,” I murmur as her fingers trail down my chest and over my abs.
“Probably.” She sighs before she stands and moves to the side.
“Are you just going to stand there?” I chuckle.
“Why not? It’s not like I haven’t seen you naked before.” She folds her arms over her chest and dares me to argue. She forgets who I am though. I couldn’t care less about stripping in front of her.
I drop the towel and watch her gaze rake up and down my body. She doesn’t try to hide her desire or anything. My cock forgets it’s in public and I instantly start getting hard. I know most of the guys are gone, but that doesn’t mean I should be getting a hard-on in the locker room.
“Cord, put some damn clothes on. Fuck, I should’ve stayed in my office. I didn’t need to see this.” Dad motions wildly in my direction.
I quickly slip on a pair of boxers and my jeans before tossing a shirt over my head. I’m not sure something more embarrassing could happen. Luckily, my ass was towards him, or I’d be even more embarrassed.
“C’mon, let’s get home.” I take her hand in mine and lead her to my car. I can't wait to get some time alone with her. I’ve been waiting years for this.
The entire drive home, I’ve had my hand resting on Macy’s thigh, just like I used to. I was hesitant to touch her since I wasn’t sure how she’d respond, but she’s the one who initiated the kiss today. She jumped over the line she placed in the sand years ago and I'm going with the flow. I’ll happily fall back into how we used to be if it means I get to have her as my girl again.
I pull up the long driveway to my house and glance over at Macy. Her eyes widen the smallest amount before she catches herself and slips behind the mask she tries so hard to keep in place. But I can see behind that mask. I know the woman she doesn’t want anyone else to see and she’s absolutely magnificent.
“Welcome to my home,” I say softly as I park in the garage and open my door.
I rush around to Macy’s side and hold out a hand to help her out of the car. As soon as she’s standing, I tug her into my arms and place a kiss on her lips.
She doesn’t hesitate to kiss me back. She puts every feeling she doesn’t want to voice into our kiss and snakes her arms around my neck.
“I missed this,” I murmur against her lips.
Macy pulls away and stares up at me. My heart beats a little harder, wondering if I just screwed up everything. Maybe saying I missed this was a little too much for her.
“What are we doing, Cord?” She whispers, staring at my chest.
“I don’t know, sweetheart. But I'm enjoying it,” I tease, knowing it will help ease some of the tension between us. “What do you want?” I place my knuckles under her chin and lift until her gaze meets mine.
“I…” She trails off, not giving me anything.
