“What about animals? We were never allowed to have them growing up because our mom was allergic.”

“Why not get one now?” I ask.

“Honestly, I’m not sure. At first, it was because I was in college and then starting my new job, which led to buying my first house, and… I don’t know. It never seemed like the right time, I guess.”

“Dogs or cats?”

“Dogs. You?”

“Dogs.”

“Inside or out?” I love this moment with her as we get to know each other on a level that’s never been an option for us until now.

“I don’t think I have a strong opinion either way. What about you?”

“Well, I’m going to have four kids, so if it’s an inside dog, he or she needs to be good with kids.”

She turns her head to look at me. “You surprise me, Spence.”

“Good surprise?”

“Definitely a good surprise.”

We talk until the water runs cold. It’s one of the greatest moments, one that I’m certain I will remember and cherish for a long damn time. “We should jump in the shower.”

“We’re already pruned.” She giggles as she holds up her wrinkled fingers.

“It won’t take long. We’ll shower and then order takeout, or we can see what I have in the kitchen to make.”

“Either is fine with me.” She moves forward and releases the plug on the tub, and stands. I watch as the water slides over her body. She moves to step out, and I offer her my hand.

“Be careful,” I warn. Once she’s safely out of the tub, she rushes to the shower and turns on the hot spray. I follow behind her, pulling her back to my front while we wait for the water to heat up.

We take turns washing each other. My soapy hands all over her skin is hot as fuck, but I hold back. I don’t want her to think that she’s only here so I can fuck her. I want this with her. The more time we spend together not arguing only cements that fact.

I rinse off and step out, while she rinses the conditioner from her hair. I wanted to help her, but I needed to step away to get myself and my cock under control. When she turns off the water and steps out of the open shower, I hold a towel up for her, and she steps in close, allowing me to wrap it around her before handing her another for her hair.

“I’m going to get dressed and head downstairs and see what our options are for lunch.”

“Let’s just order pizza,” she suggests.

“Pizza I can do. What do you want on it?”

“I’m not picky. Just no anchovies.”

“Meat lovers?”

“That works for me.”

I bend to kiss her. “Take your time.”

“We’re staying in, right?”

“That was the plan.”

“Okay, just making sure. I brought comfy clothes and going-out clothes, and I’m not going to mess with my hair if we’re just lounging.”

“A day of lounging with you is perfect.” I kiss her quickly and leave her in the bathroom to do her thing. I slide into a pair of underwear, some gym shorts, and a T-shirt before making my way downstairs. I call in an order for a large pizza with breadsticks and kick back on the couch.
