My brows lifted at that, but where, once, that might have made me insecure, might have sent me spiraling, today I just smiled and said, “Youlikeme working hard, remember?”

His arms tightened around me, and his mouth took mine in a way that was intentionally distracting (though I didn’t care). Not even when he pulled back, said, “I do. Ido, baby.”

Also, something that I didn’t really care about—mostly because Iknewit was true and because I was less concerned with his words and more focused on how to fuck him while saving his energy so he could play hockey in a less than an hour.

Especially when he kissed meagain, not breaking away until we were both breathing heavy.

I could definitely fuck him. I’d do all the work and he could relax back and enjoy the process. Or if he took over—as was likely— I’d just…call it a pregame warmup. Yup. Good plan.Goodpl—

“I’ve just decided that sometimes I need to take evasive maneuvers to make sure I get my time, too.”

“Evasive?” I frowned, blinking a few times, mostly because my mind was in sexual fantasy land before his words processed.

Evasive maneuvers.

Evasive.

With…my planner.

Myplanner.

Eek!

I lurched for my precious baby. “What did you do?”

His hands slid up—traveling along several (well,two) very nice places—but I wasn’t going to be distracted from the matter at hand.

Not even when he brushed my nipples, rolled them gently between thumb and forefinger.

My planner!

The man had done something to my planner, and that was sacrilegious in the most dangerous of ways.

Focusing—somehow—I knocked his hands away and snagged my precious, prepared to go full-on Mayor-in-a-Rant Mode if he’d ruined my glorious,gloriousplans.

But…then I saw it.

I’d noticed him carrying in a small black box earlier—thinner and flatter than the box he’d given me with the plug a while back. I’d even noticed that he’d set the lid on my desk, leaving the box itself open for me to see the contents inside.

But I’d been distracted by contracts.

And then my man.

And then…my planner.

I’d missed thatinsidethe thin, black box was a stack of sticker sheets.

Now I’d seen them, and I leaned closer, and I…sucked in a breath.

Because those stickers…

Hell, if they didn’t have me falling in love with Joel.

Right there and then.

I’d been sliding that way, teetering on the precipice, wanting to believe in us, in the feeling in my heart, but also worried it would all change and go wrong and unwilling to let that last bit of resistance go. Because if I put myself out there and his feelings changed…

Devastating.
