“I hope so. He donates so much money to the team and the autism center. I’m hoping he’s impressed by both.”
“Callie, he’s going to be completely blown away, just like I am when I see you in your element.”
She leans her head back, meeting my gaze. “Will you be up for going to the meet tomorrow?”
“I am. I gotta tape your ankles.”
Callie’s lips curve ever so sweetly, looking like a sexy little kitten. “If you aren’t up to it, I understand.”
“I’ll be there,” I promise.
She kisses me below my jaw, setting my body on fire. “I can’t wait.”
“Me either,” I say, gliding my hand along her hip, running my fingertips over her skin that is showing from her shirt riding up. “It’s going to be a great day for you.”
“I hope so. And don’t let Nico hold you back from talking to me,” she says, and she uses an almost teasing tone.
I might have done that before, but after tonight, I refuse to allow his upcoming arrival to ruin everything Callie and I just shared. Instead, I kiss her temple and whisper, “I’ll only be focused on you.”
She tips her head back, meeting my gaze. “No pressure to show out, huh?”
I grin, squeezing her hip. “You show out without trying.”
Her face lights up, and our lips meet once more as my body quivers with the anticipation of what is happening between us. I didn’t share a lot, just enough to feel good and better about how everything has played out. I want to take her advice, protect my peace, but I also want to fight to think about myself the way she thinks of me. I am well aware people are put in your life for all kinds of reasons, but as our lips move together, I know there was no way in hell I would have ever seen Callie coming.
