––––––––

“Oh my god.” Blue moansaround the large bite of taco in her mouth. “This has got to be the best thing I have ever tasted.”

“The best thing?” I ask, giving her a look I know she’ll understand.

“Hmmm. Maybe the second best.”

The way she smiles at me brings back the memory of her on her knees, taking me into the back of her throat. I don’t ever remember a time when a woman has damn near brought me to my knees in pleasure. But Blue did just that. I was fucking putty in her hands and she knew it.

“Thank you for inviting me to come with you today. This has really been fun.” She pops the last bite of food into her mouth and chews slowly. “I’ve never been to anything like this before. I usually avoid all the festivals and stuff downtown because there’s too many people. But this isn’t as bad as I thought it would be.” She looks around.

“And here I was about to suggest we get out of here, go back to my place, and do something a little more...” I clear my throat. “Private.”

“Because you didn’t have enough private time with me earlier?”

“Not nearly enough.” I snake my hand around her waist and pull her against my side as we make our way down the busy street cluttered with people.

“Three times isn’t enough?”

“With you, I don’t think there’s such thing as enough.”

“I bet you say that to all the women.” She throws me a sideways glance.

“I don’t, actually. And I’ve never been with someone more than twice in one day. It’s not even six o’clock and we’ve already broken that record.” I give her side a squeeze. “I’m thinking we should go for double or nothing.”

“You’re insatiable.” She lets her head fall back slightly as the sweetest fucking laugh escapes her mouth.

“With you, there’s no other way to put it.”

“I’ll give you credit, Mr. Avery. You sure know how to say all the right things. If you ever decide to settle down, you’re not going to have any trouble finding someone to marry you.”

“What do you meanifI decide to settle down?”

“I just meant...well, you’re not really the one-woman kind of man.”

“Says who?”

“Says your actions over the entire time we’ve worked together.”

“So you’re saying because I’m a flirt.”

She stops me with a knowing glare.

“Flirt? I think we both know your antics go far beyond flirting.”

“Fair enough. But, just because I was having a little fun while waiting for the right woman to come along doesn’t mean that settling down isn’t what I want.” We veer in the direction of the parking lot. “What about you? I know you have this wholeI hate lovething going on but you must have thought about it before.”

“About what?” She pretends to not know what I’m talking about.

“Settling down. Marriage. Kids. A house. The whole shebang.”

“I’ve thought about it. Who hasn’t? Or are you forgetting the part where I was once engaged.” She blows out a puff of air. “But no, it’s not something I want anymore. I like the freedom to just be me.”

“And falling in love and starting a family takes that freedom away?”
