“I’m not in the mood to say goodnight!” I call, I smile to myself. If he wants childish, I’ll give him childish.
“Very funny.”
“I thought so.”
I brush my teeth, braid my hair, and I climb into bed. I’m not grovelling to him when he’s being an unreasonable dick. No way in hell.
I lie in bed for a while and eventually I hear the television turn off. He fusses around for a bit and brushes his teeth, and then he gets into bed. He turns his side lamp on.
“What are you doing?” I frown.
“I’m reading.”
“Why did you bother coming to bed if you want to read? Why didn’t you just stay out there and read?” I huff with my back to him.
“Because I wanted to be close to you, but of course, you are completely wrecking it, so stop talking.”
I smile against my pillow. “What does it feel like to be the world’s biggest baby?”
“I’m not a baby.” He snaps.
I roll over and look up at him. “I beg to differ.”
“I just know what these medical conferences are like, Eliza. They’re a free-for-all fuck fest.”
“Nathan, it’s me,” I say softly. “I don’t care who Henry sleeps with on his conference but it won’t be me because I’m in love with you.”
His eyes hold mine.
I rub my hand up his thigh. “You know I’m not like that. I’ve never cheated on anyone in my entire life.”
He exhales heavily. “I just….” His voice trails off.
“You just what?”
“I just know how beautiful you are.” He brushes the hair back from my forehead. “Any man would give his left nut to sleep with you.”
I smile softly.
“It’s true, Eliza.”
“Would you give your left nut to sleep with me?”
“Both nuts.” He turns the page of his book again. “I’m pretty sure you carry them around in your purse now, anyway.” He shakes his head. “I’m fucking doomed.”
I giggle and reach over to take his book off him and throw it onto the floor.
I sit up and pull my silk nightdress over my shoulders. Nathan’s eyes drop to my bare breasts. He runs his tongue over his bottom lip, distracted.
I’m not playing fair. I win all the fights when I get my boobs out. He’s got no defense.
He’s besotted with them now.
“So, here’s the thing,” I whisper as I bend and kiss his lower stomach. I trail my tongue over his hipbone and see his cock twitch in his boxer shorts. “You have me, naked and at your disposal.”
He smirks as he watches me.
“Are we really going to spend the week fighting about stupid Henry Morgan?”
