He chuckled and rolled them until she was underneath him. “Hell yeah, it was that good. Want me to prove it to you all over again?” He moved her thighs open with his knees, and she sucked her breath in and nodded in agreement. She was wet, and he felt his cock twitch with excitement. Breakfast would have to wait. Maybe they’d make it out for lunch. Maybe.

Chance and Noelle sat across the table from each other. The restaurant was busy, so they had chosen a table in the back. This was not the romantic lunch he envisioned, but it was time to let everyone know they were a couple again. He was ready to deal with any smart-ass remarks.
“You two back together?” Missy, the waitress asked before anything else. Her blue eyes looked Noelle over, and Chance held Noelle’s hand on top of the table.
Chance looked up at the waitress. Missy was Carly’s cousin, and he was probably not her favorite person. She didn’t look too angry, just curious. “Yes we are. I came back because I missed her too much.”
Chance looked at Noelle and winked. She smiled and blushed. They already had coffee.
“Can we still get biscuits and gravy?” Chance asked Missy.
Missy nodded her blonde head at them. “Sure. They serve them all day. You want extra sausage?”
Chance nodded yes and Missy walked away.
“Let’s hope she doesn’t poison my food.” Chance sighed. At least Carly was absent.
Noelle rolled her eyes. “This was your idea. I offered to cook scrambled eggs. I suppose I could have googled how to make gravy.”
“I want people to know we are together and plan on staying that way,” he said seriously, grabbing both of her hands. Her skin was silky and smooth. “I love you, Noelle, and I refuse to hide. People are going to have to accept it. I am sorry for my mistakes, but that was yesterday. Today is a new beginning.”
“Okay.” She seemed to agree with his statement, and it settled his nerves down a bit. She gave him a small smile, and he could see her shoulders relax.
“I have a busy week, but Friday we can go to Cole County. They have a romantic Italian restaurant,” Chance said to her, leaning forward until their noses almost touched.
“You know Italian is my weakness.” She laughed, leaning back, looking happy and relaxed. This was how he wanted to see her, always.
Missy came back with their plates and was polite, if not friendly. He pretended not to notice her chilly attitude. A few people nodded at them in greeting. A few others whispered to each other. Chance ignored them all and concentrated on Noelle only. All in all, he was happy there were no huge scenes, and he didn’t have to kick anyone’s ass.
They walked outside holding hands. The sun was warm, and the sky was bright. He didn’t want his time with her to end yet. Tomorrow would be another work week, and they would both be busy with work.
“Let’s spend the day watching old movies,” he suggested, wanting to be alone with her. Maybe he could convince her to stay naked all day and night.
She grabbed his hand despite the people walking down the crowded sidewalks. They started walking slowly back to her place. “I like that idea. I have popcorn.”
He grinned and looked into her hazel eyes filled with joy. This was the Noelle that filled his memories. He leaned down and placed a tender kiss on her lips. He wanted her to always have this look. Happiness.

Noelle, Chance, and Quinn walked around the summer fair. They had waited for the evening so it would be cooler. With the summer months starting, the day was getting hot. Noelle was having a great time despite her reservations about coming. Every person in town, and some from neighboring towns, were in attendance.
Noelle didn’t see much of Chance during the week. Sometimes a quick lunch or a quick dinner, but the weekends they always spent together. This was their second week that they had decided to give their relationship another go, and it was smooth going. Sometimes she felt like she was waiting for some disaster to happen.
The neon lights of the rides added to the fun atmosphere and gave off a fun energy. People were laughing and smiling.
They ran into Chase, who was on duty, but he took the time to challenge Cha
nce into a shooting contest. Noelle and Quinn listened to them insult each other and just shook their heads with amusement.
“Men.” Quinn whispered with a smile. Noelle saw her checking Chase out and hid her smile. Quinn hadn’t shown much of an interest in men besides Chase. Ever since her college boyfriend betrayed her, she had been cynical about dating. Watching the train wreck between Noelle and Chance had not helped her cynical beliefs. Quinn claimed Chase was just a friend. Noelle hoped it turned into more.
“I know.” Noelle laughed.
Quinn sighed and looked at Chase. He wore jeans and a black T-shirt that said Police in big yellow letters. She looked at Noelle as if trying not to notice how attractive the deputy looked.
“You and Chance both look very relaxed together. I take it second time around is better?”
