“What? What am I on the couch for?”
He glances back at me, an evil expression on his face. “Because you didn’t call me by my pleasure name.”
“Oh my god. Fine. I’ll call you ‘Sir’ next time.”
“Good,” he says. “You’re still on the couch.”
“You’re ridiculously good at torture,” I realize.
“Thanks. And what’s it matter? You said you weren’t a man who stuck around after sex. I’m just doing what you’re used to. I’m kind like that.”
I stare at him as he heads for the stairs and question if that’s right. How dare he deprive me of this? With a sigh, I give in and trail after him.
CHAPTER6
THREE DAYS LEFT
LEN
When I walk out of my bedroom, I see Kade lying on my couch. There’s something fun about seeing him there and I think it’s because he truly believed that he could persuade me not to leave him in the living room. He tried getting me to cave last night about sharing my bed with him, but I held firm.
He doesn’t need everything he wants when he wants it.
“Did you sleep well?” I ask with a smile.
Kade glowers at me. “Does it look like I did?”
“My bed was sooo roomy. You should have simply asked, and I’d have shared with you.”
His eyes get wide, and he even whips out some hand motions as he stares at me. “Did I not ask multiple times?”
“Huh,” I say as he throws the blanket back and gets up.
“Is my place good to go back to?”
“I don’t think you should go back to your place where people were waiting to rip your nails off last time. Do you not like your nails? And what do you need that I don’t have?”
“Clothes. I didn’t even think to grab them last night. I was too… distracted.”
My cheeks feel hot at the mention of what distracted him. I try to push it off by waving at my perfectly amazing clothes that I’m currently displaying. “You can wear my clothes. We’re similar sizes.”
“Do you have a suit?”
“I do!”
He looks skeptical but I assure him I’ll get it out while he gets ready in the bathroom. So as soon as he’s off, I wander over to my closet and pull it open before pushing through all of my stuff until I find the suit I’d gotten to cosplay as the Joker a few years back. I mean… there’s nothing wrong with the bright purple, but judging from the look on Kade’s face as he comes out of the bathroom, it’s a travesty.
“I will not wear that.”
“Then wear one of my hoodies.”
Kade sighs extremely loudly as he comes over and starts flipping through my hoodies until I see his entire body just give up and he grabs one. He pulls it on, and I don’t know why I absolutely love seeing the well-dressed man sporting one of my hoodies.
“You look mighty fine.”
His deadpan look tells me he’s not quite so sure. “I need to go to work.”
“I’ll drive you, but once you’re at the casino, stay there. I’m sure Norn is going to be pissed after last night. I have some stuff to do, so I’m going to deal with that and then I’ll be back to pick you up. I’ll make tacos. Do you like tacos?”
