“I see.”
“Is that for him?”
I look down at the Tupperware case. “Uh, it’s for both of you, actually. I made a meringue cake.”
His eyes light up. “Yes! Thank you.”
I nod and extend out the container to him. “There’s more than enough in there for the both of you, so knock yourself out.”
He leans in to place a kiss on my forehead. The smell of his aftershave tickles my nose, and I sigh softly in pleasure. “You’re the best, Kaylee.”
He crosses the room to the kitchen. He takes out a ceramic bowl from the plate rack and a small paring knife. Cutting out an adequate portion, he places it inside the bowl. Closing his eyes, he plunges a finger smeared with whipped cream into his mouth. I swallow, shifting in my seat.
Boy, do I know what that mouth can do.
When he opens them, he gives me a thumbs-up.
“Ten out of ten.”
I chuckle. “You haven’t even eaten the cake.”
Opening the fridge, he places the ceramic bowl inside. “I will, don’t worry.”
He replaces the lid of the Tupperware, rinses the cake smears off the knife, and dries his hands with a napkin. He looks at me. The silence between us screams volumes. Before I know it, I’m in his arms. He hugs me tight, and his lips are soon on mine. I meet him, and my lips part to welcome him in. Intoxicating, as always. I shove a hand into his hair, clenching it tight and holding him as I suck on his tongue. His resulting groan only fuels the growing flame in me and the flesh between my legs tingles. Ian pulls away, nuzzling my ear. We’re both breathing hard, and his arousal is obvious from the heat of his erection pressing against me.
“The cake might be great and all, but I want you more.”
I sigh softly. It’s like my body is a lump of iron, and every inch of me is straining towards his magnetism. He’s impossible to resist. I shiver as his tongue teases my ear. He grins, looking pleased by my reaction.
“I wanna show you something. We’ll go in your car.”
I tilt my head. “Uh, why?”
“Don’t ask.” He moves away to the other end of the foyer. Shoving his feet into a pair of black Crocs, he looks up at me.
“Oh, and we’re bringing the cake, too. And a bottle of wine I saved.”
I knit my brows, perplexed. “Where exactly are we going, Ian?”
He reaches for my left hand and flashes me a winning smile. “You’ll see. Come on.”
I chuckle as I follow him out the door. He pockets the keys after locking it. Bemusedly looking at him, I ask, “Can’t I get a little hint at least?”
“Well, I found this place downtown. It’s really great. Give me your keys.”
I stare at him, resisting the urge to burst into laughter. Is he serious right now?
One moment, he’s coming on hard to me, and the next, he’s like an excited toddler.
I hand him the keys and he nods. “Good girl, here,” he opens the passenger door. “Get in.”
Giggling, I obey and slide in. He shuts the door and jogs to the driver’s. He turns on the ignition and eases the engine out of the driveway and into the street. I stare at him, running the idea through my mind. He’s inviting me to God-knows-where and also wants us to share a meal. He’s taking me to a place where we can be alone. Together.
Heart thumping, I turn to him, a coy smile playing around my lips. “Are—I’m sorry, are you taking me on a date?”
He gives me a pointed look. “You just figured that out?”
I throw back my head and laugh. “I… I actually didn’t know that before.”
