“I understand. I’ll bring you home,” I said.

“And maybe stay the night?” she suggested. I looked at her closely and she added, “Since you’re bringing me to the airport, it will save you time.”

“I thought you had packing to do,” I said.

“Stuffing clothes in a suitcase. Easy.”

“And how about sleep?” I asked.

“It’s a long flight. I can sleep on the plane. Are you trying to tell me you don’t want to spend the night with me?” she asked.

Fuck no.

“I’d like nothing more.”

I paid the bill and we headed to her place. The ride was quiet, and I wondered what she was thinking. All I had to do was ask and I knew she’d tell me.

I’m not sure I want to know.

When we arrived at her house, I walked her to the door. Before entering I asked again, “Are you sure you want me to stay? I know you have a lot to do.”

She grabbed hold of my tie and pulled me inside. “You’re right. I do. But there’s nothing I want more than for you to make love to me tonight.”

I scooped her into my arms and kicked the door closed behind me. I had no idea where she was going, when she was coming back or if this was goodbye. The only thing that mattered was we had tonight, and I was going to make it count.

As I carried her to the bedroom I asked, “Did I leave those handcuffs here?”

She giggled. “They might be in my nightstand drawer.”

I knew what else was in there too. “You’re definitely not getting any sleep tonight.”

“Good thing I took a nap before dinner. Now I have plenty of energy,” she said before kissing me and biting my bottom lip.

Damn. “How can you even make a nap sound hot?”

Playfully she said, “A woman never divulges her secrets.”

Touché, sweetheart.

When we entered the bedroom, I saw rose petals sprinkled over the bedspread. We weren’t parting just as friends. We are lovers that have all night to say goodbye.

And I’m in love with you.

The most difficult part of tonight was not being able to tell her those words.

If you come back to me, maybe then I can say them.
