She couldn’t help the smile that spread itself across her face. “All mine?”

He nodded. “As yours as it gets.”

She laughed. “I like the sound of that.”

“I do, too.”

Her smile faded. “What does it mean, though? What does it look like – in real life; once we get out of bed?”

He chuckled. “Well, once we get out of bed, I think it’ll look like brushing our teeth – since that seems kind of important to you.”

She rolled her eyes at him. “If we’re getting the embarrassing stuff out of the way early, I’m going to have to pee, too.”

He laughed. “Okay, that, too. And then … we could shower?” He waggled his eyebrows.

“Oh! Wow! Yeah.” She nodded eagerly. She’d seen his shower last night. It was bigger than her whole bathroom and had so many showerheads it was unreal – she knew damn well that there were plenty enough for both of them, what she didn’t know was just what he was planning for them to do in there, but she was eager to find out.

“Then, we can have some breakfast, and … do you need to go into school today?”

“I do, but only for a couple of hours this afternoon. We have a staff meeting and I want to get my classroom ready for next week. What about you, though? Don’t you have to go to work?”

He smiled. “I don’thaveto.”

“But you should.”

He shrugged. “My boss is a great guy; I think he’ll give me the day off – the rest of the week off.” He cocked an eyebrow.

“I don’t know, I mean … of course, I’d love it if you can, but I don’t want to mess you up. I know you need to work. And I can go back to the townhouse and work there while …”

“No.”

She raised her eyebrows. “No?”

He pursed his lips, looking more like the Napa bigshot than he had a moment ago. “Sorry. I really don’t want to be bossy.”

She smirked. “But it just comes naturally?”

He laughed. “Yeah. I can’t deny it. It does. I apologize in advance if I come off heavy-handed at times. I don’t want to boss you around. I’d never try to control you but, Becca, I really don’t want you to go back to that place. I want you to move in here. That means living here, doing your work, and whatever else you need to do, here – even if I have to go to work and can’t be here with you.”

“You wouldn’t mind that?”

“Mind? This is as close to begging as I get.”

She laughed. “Seriously?”

“Yeah. I’m not very good at it, but I’ll practice if you want me to.”

She laughed again. “No, thank you. It doesn’t suit you, and it doesn’t do it for me anyway.”

He cocked an eyebrow. “Interesting. So, if you’re not okay with me begging, how about I act more like myself andtell youwhat I want? I want us to go and get whatever you need from your townhouse this morning. I’ll have someone go and pack up the rest later and get it moved here for you.”

Becca swallowed. “Wow!”

“Would you be okay with that?”

“I guess.”

He gave her the sexiest smirk. “Okay, then that’s that taken care of. Next, I want you in my shower.”
