“I haven’t had a chance to find a place for everything yet, but the apartment is gorgeous. I can’t believe you did all of this. Thankyou.”
He stares over at me, his eyes flashing with victory and satisfaction. “Thank you for movinghere.”
I draw in a sharp breath when he edges closer into my space, standing in front of me, as if he’s geared to tell me a secret. Being too close for comfort seems to be his thing, which I find completely unnecessary. This isn’t L.A.The square footage is out of this world,dude.
“You have no idea how much I fucking appreciateit.”
I shrug off his gratitude and laugh. “I needed a getaway for a while anyway. Nothing like a vacation before delivering ababy.”
He chuckles lightly. “Just a vacation,huh?”
Inod.
He runs his boots back and forth over the hardwood floor. “I stopped by to make sure you showed up and weren’t planning on bailingagain.”
I hold out my arms. “I’m here, in the flesh, breathing andeverything.”
“I also wanted to see what you might be doing tomorrownight.”
Like I have big planshere?
“Most likely,unpacking.”
“Perfect, you’re free. I’m taking Maven to the fair tomorrow. Come withus.”
Is he nuts? He wants me to hang out with not only him, but also hisdaughter?
“The fair?” I scrunch up my face. “Like vomit-inducing, spinning rides and honky-tonks?”
“No.” He pauses. “I mean, yes to the rides, no to the honky-tonks. You watch too manymovies.”
“I work for movie stars. Watching their movies is part of myjob.”
“I’ll pick you up atsix.”
“I’ll have topass.”
“Come on, who doesn’t like thefair?”
“I’ve never been toone.”
His lips tilt into a half-smile, and he opens the front door, patting the inside of it. “I’ll pick you up atsix.”
“Wait!”
“Have a good night,Willow.”
The door slams shut behindhim.
