So we shower and kiss and hold one another until we do become prunes. Afterward, with towels wrapped around us, we say good night at my bedroom door. As I slide into a cold, empty bed, I realize that for the first time in a long time, I wish someone other than Sawyer was there with me.
Twenty-Two
Van
I knock on Brinley’s bedroom door on Wednesday morning and hear a groan from the other side.
“Come on. Date is starting in five minutes,” I call.
“Open the door,” she says. I turn the doorknob and find her sitting up in bed. “Why so early?”
“It’s not early. You’d already be at work at this point.”
“I like sleeping in when I don’t have to be up early for work though.”
I shake my head and hold out the bag of clothes I bought for her, even though I’m sure she has winter clothes. “This is for you.” I walk in and place the bag on her bed.
“You bought me clothes to wear?” Her big smile is all the thanks I need.
“I wanted to make sure you were prepared.”
She holds her arms out for a hug, and I bend down, wrapping my arms around her small frame.
“Thank you,” she murmurs into my neck.
“You’re welcome. Now come on because we’re going out for breakfast first.”
“Oh, where?” she asks, still not getting out of bed.
“How about this? If you don’t stop asking questions and get out of bed, I’m stripping down and joining you.”
She grins. “Is that supposed to be a bad thing?”
I shake my head and chuckle. “You’d miss the amazing day I have planned for us.”
“Very true. Okay.” She shoos me and gets out of bed wearing a nightshirt that barely covers her ass.
“Brinley,” I groan, sighing.
“What?” She looks at me all innocent-like, but she knows exactly what she’s doing.
“Now I have a fucking hard-on.” I adjust my dick. “I’m turning on the shower for you.”
She mumbles something I can’t hear, but I leave the room to wait for her.
She emerges in the living room a half hour later, completely done up.
“I should’ve told you that you didn’t need makeup.”
She frowns. “Why?”
“The clothes weren’t a hint?”
“You’re taking me somewhere cold, that’s clear.”
“Exactly, but you can put on all the outerwear after we eat. Come on.”
We leave the apartment and head downstairs to my truck, where she sees the snowmobile I’m towing.
