So did Rohan based on how he was coughing and trying to cover his snickers. “It’s not funny. She was accusing me of kidnapping someone to clean my office and the ideas just got more outlandish from there.”
Somehow, she was under the impression I’d never met with Rohan and I wasn’t sure what she was going to do when she found out the truth.
Oops.
“Well, as long as you figure out a way to make sure Lori doesn’t call the cops, I’ll figure out a nice surprise for you later.” Rohan’s voice was too matter-of-fact to let me know if that was a promise for sex or dessert, and the way he stopped at the door and studied me didn’t help. “Phone? Wallet just in case we get separated? Little notebook?”
Oh.
“No, I don’t even have one of the little IKEA pencils that I liberated ages ago.” Those had come in very handy.
Shaking his head, Rohan released my hand. “You have ten seconds or I will come to find you.”
Since that didn’t seem to be the start of a sexy scene, I nodded and ran to my office. “I’m hurrying but I don’t know where anything is.”
Had I even brought any of my leaving-home notebooks?
Thankfully, Rohan was very helpful and didn’t deliberately fuck with me just so he’d get to punish me. “Top drawer on the right.”
Yes. There they were.
“Thank you.” I made it back just as he got to ten. “You count entirely too fast.”
Raising one eyebrow, he looked offended. “I do not. I have perfect time.”
My wandering off in the middle of dinner to write down an idea didn’t offend him but questioning his counting did?
Some people were very interesting.
“Thank you for helping me find my notebook.” Kissing his cheek, I put the small pencil and notebook in my pocket and tried to look cute since it worked in books. “I’m ready to go.”
He scoffed, but aside from a slight eye roll, he didn’t call me out on changing the subject. “Wonderful.”
Looking cute had definitely helped.
But I knew I didn’t want to overplay my hand, so I tried to be careful as we headed to his truck. “What’s the plan?”
Was that vague enough to get information without having to tell him I hadn’t been paying enough attention?
No.
Because he laughed. “Oh, naughty boy.”
Damn it.
As he shook his head and opened the passenger door for me, I scrambled for something helpful. “I have another chapter of Teddy’s book.”
And I could be easily talked into anything from a blow job to a spanking.
Rohan just flashed me a wicked grin as he closed the door.
Did that mean hedidn’twant a blow job or was it implied that he already expected one?
I still hadn’t figured it out or where we were going by the time he climbed in the driver’s seat, but I’d decided thewhere were we goingtopic was probably more important because neither of us should really be getting naked in public.
“So, if you’ve already realized I have no idea what we’re doing, how about I get points for being honest and you just tell me?” I thought the idea had merit, but Rohan was nearly laughing by the time we pulled out of the driveway.
“You are already a hermit who doesn’t think about leaving home, and I’m not going to let you turn into a troll.” Giving me a quick glance, he went back to shaking his head. “You don’t even shower unless I make you.”
