I don’t remember any man ever making me feel like this. Is there something more going on here, or just wishful thinking on my behalf?
“Goodnight, Mr. Masters.”
He stands, and suddenly we are brought face to face, only millimetres apart. “Julian,” he corrects me.
My heart skips a beat at our close proximity, and I look up into his sexy eyes.
The power emanating from his body is palpable. He’d be so fucking dominant in bed. “Julian,” I whisper.
His eyes drop to my lips.
Oh God, is he going to kiss me?
Do it. Do it.
After a moment, he seems to remember where he is, and he takes a purposeful step backwards, nodding like a gentleman. “Goodnight, Bree.”
“What book do you want to read, Sammy?” I ask as I look over to his bookshelves. It’s 8:30 p.m. and I am sitting on the end of his bed while he dries himself after his bath. Mr. Masters left early this morning and we haven’t heard from him all day. Janine left about an hour ago after cooking dinner.
“I don’t know, do we have to read? Can’t we do something else for a change?” he asks as he pulls on his striped, flannelette pajamas.
“Why, what do you want to do?”
He shrugs. “Watch YouTube or something.”
“We don’t learn much from YouTube, Sam.”
“That’s not true,” Willow calls from her room. “Everything I know I learnt from YouTube.”
“Is that where you learnt to eavesdrop?” I call.
“Funny,” she calls back.
I throw Sammy a wink. “I know, right? I’m hilarious. And I learnt it on YouTube,” I shout.
“Oh God,” I hear her mutter.
I think for a moment. What is something we could watch together, the three of us?
“I know. We could watch cat videos,” I say. Sam frowns. “What for?”
“Haven’t you ever watched cat videos on YouTube?” I ask, shocked.
“No.”
“Will, have you?” I call, knowing that she’s eavesdropping.
“Nobody does that except losers,” she hits back.
I giggle. “Lucky I’m a loser then.”
I open up Sam’s computer at his desk and I log into YouTube, searching for cat bloopers.
Sam and I take a seat at the desk and we both wait.
A toddler is walking down a driveway when a cat jumps out and crash tackles him. He falls spectacularly into the garden, and we both laugh. A printer is printing out paper in an office and a cat comes in, attacking the printer with both paws as the paper comes out, and we both laugh out loud again.
A cat gets stuck in a cereal box and goes ballistic. A cat slips on the edge of the bath and falls in.
