The pass off to Kevin at the gas station on Friday had Amber’s belly tied in knots. Since she was working both Friday and Saturday night at the clinic she had two days off during the week. Which meant she could line things up and be there for her kids, instead of paying for a baby sitter. Mountain had even come over to smooth out her wall and helped her release a bit of tension in the middle of the day.

But Friday, she’d spent in the clinic all night then took Mountain up on the offer to crash in his room. No reason to waste hours on the road when she could snuggle on a big bed with a big man and little kitten. Though she wondered if there was a bit of territory issue since the few times she shifted to curl in closer, a mew came from between her and Mountain.

“I was thinking,” Mountain said as he brushed back a few strands of hair from Amber’s eye only to have Spot step right between them and swat her tail in Amber’s mouth.

“I’m not saying your daughter hates me.” Amber laughed. “But between Maisie and Spot, we may have an issue.”

Mountain lifted the kitten and placed her on the floor. “She hasn’t peed in your shoes yet, you’re good.”

“Doesn’t like sharing, I get that,” Amber said as she ran her fingers through the thick chest hair of the man she wanted to call her own. “And she did have you first.”

“True, at least mine only lives like eighteen years, yours will outlive me, so I guess we’re doomed.”

“I have the thought,” Amber said as her leg curled around his upper thigh.

“I’m on board so far.”

“We stick the girls together and then you and I can play.”

Mountain’s hand slipped to her ass and he squeezed. “I wonder what tiles I’ll be pulling from the bag today.”

“None,” she said pushing him away. “I have to get to work.”

“Wanna ride?” he asked.

“Is it above freezing?” she questioned.

“How would I know I’m a Wookie,” he howled and covered her with his body. Pressing her into the bed and making her dream of being with him in Turnabout. Living for weekends where they could stay in bed.

“Before you promise me you can get me to work at Kessel Run speeds, I do need to relieve whoever is hanging out there.”

“Did you say Kessel Run? My inner nerd is wanting to do so many things to you.”

“Well, last night was slow, why don’t you bring me dinner, and I’ll provide dessert.”

Thirty minutes later, Amber was trying to warm up with hot coffee having been stupid enough to take Mountain up on his offer of a ride. Even with the sun in set mode, the world was not warm enough to be on the back of a bike. The man was insane. Sexy. Warm all the time. But insane.

A few people had come in during the day according to Free, but it wasn’t anything more than basic first aid. If Amber could tend to anyone who showed up Red and Roadkill would have had their first full weekend off. In a way, it was like when she worked nights. Busting her ass for hours to make sure everyone was out the door before days came in.

She did review the procedures Red had on deck for Monday and started piles so all Roadkill would have to do is take the sterilized packs into the room and it would be ready for him. A buzz to the door around seven brought a smile to her face as Mountain stood outside the door with two to-go boxes sitting on aScrabblebox.

“Can I help you?” she questioned as she unlocked the clinic door and let him in before locking it again.

“Yeah, I got this swelling in a sensitive area,” Mountain said as he stood next to her. “Is the doctor around?”

“Oh, no.” She shrugged. “But I’m a trained nurse, I’m pretty sure I could handle any issue.”

They moved back to the breakroom and he set down the game and food.

She wove her fingers with his and brought him into an exam room where she could lock the door. “Wanna show me where this swelling is?” she questioned.

He hopped up on the exam table with a big grin. “I might need a sheet,” he said as his fingers unbuckled his belt and popped the button on his jeans.

“It’s just the two of us,” she assured as her hands glided up his muscular thighs and her mouth watered a bit waiting for him to release his cock from the restraint of his jeans.

When his hand slipped into the hole for his boxers and pulled his cock out, it was hard. His fingers wrapped around the long length that had been inside her, stretching her body and sending her over the edge now on display in the florescent light of the clinic.
