That’s all I get??

Yes.

I figured I would leave her alone for a second. I didn’t get out of bed until almost noon, I had to say I liked this new way of living, but I did feel extremely unproductive. I made some coffee and used my home gym that I was almost never in.

It had pretty much everything except equipment hogging gym goers. I hit the weights until my muscles twitched everywhere and finished it off with cardio on the treadmill. As I downed my water, I thought of teasing Emilia even more. It might only be pissing her off, but it was still fun.

I stepped to the wall mirror and snapped a picture, I was sans shirt and it felt like high school, maybe even junior high but I still did it. I wasn’t conceited, but I took care of myself; run, lift weights, eat well. I looked good. Didn’t mean I was cocky, but I was confident. She sent a message back in less than a minute. I smirked.

But I decided to make her wait until I was out of the shower and dressed. When I saw the reply, I wanted to take another shower. A cold one. Baby doll was good at playing the game. She sent back a picture of herself. I could tell she was in her flower shop because behind her was the familiar wall of peonies, but she was in a thin tank top with skinny straps. I hoped it wasn’t what she was wearing with the shop open because I could see everything clearly. She might as well have been naked. The rosy pink of her nipples poked through. Fuck me.

I hope that isn’t what you’re wearing at work…

No. She replied with another picture of herself in a tunic with a zipper down the front, hence why she needed the tank I guess.

Good. Wouldn’t want anyone seeing that.

Why? You aren’t the boss of me.

No, I’m not. But you seem to be the boss of my cock ‘cause it doesn’t listen to me anymore.

She sent me back at least ten smiley faces. Though it wasn’t funny to either of us.

What are you doing? I asked her.

Organizing the shop and I just finished a design for Gabriella.

I had an idea then. That wedding was the only reason for me to even see her.

So, we should meet and discuss it then. Tomorrow morning?

I almost held my breath. I wanted to see her so badly that I had to physically leave my phone in my den as I went to the kitchen to grab a beer. When I got back I checked her response.

I’ll speak with Gabriella about it.

What the fuck?

She was so much better at this than I was. My cock ached for her.

Well I guess it made sense, it was her wedding. But I wasn’t too beat up because I knew Gabriella didn’t have a schedule that would allow her to go to noon meetings with her florist, even if it was for her wedding. Levi was pulling all the weight of his case now. So, I waited patiently. When my phone rang, I jumped slightly, thinking it was Emilia.

“Hi, Natalie.” I gruffed. Just my sister, calling at the worst time as usual.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

“Checking NASDAQ and day trading.” It was around three so the numbers were good, I could up my profits today. I had to be careful with day trading, I didn’t want to make more than a few grand with penny stocks.

“Of course. Do you want to meet me for dinner?” I wanted to say no. But there was a longing in her voice. Kit must be gone again.

“Kit’s gone again?” I asked her. I felt her scowl.

“Kevin…and yes he is. He left yesterday.” Her voice echoed, she must have been in her office.

“Sorry. Yeah, we can have dinner. What time?”

“I’ll be there in a few hours. I have some clients left.”

“Okay, see you.”
