“Well, I was, until I heard that my final opponent was being interviewed at the hotel across the street.” He smiled. “I figured I’d walk through the lobby and let him have a good look at it from afar.”
“Please tell me that you didn’t really do that…”
“Of course, I did.” He smiled, setting it down on my desk. “I would much rather be doing Mrs. Carter at the moment, but she left my bed early this morning.”
“Because she has a new business to run,” I said. “She didn’t want to get stuck screwing you in it for the rest of the day.”
“Understandable, but I hope she knows that I plan on stopping by from time to time to screw her in this office.”
“She didn’t know that at all.”
“Now she does.” He slid an arm around my waist. “They make soundproofed walls for a reason.”
He kissed me before I could say another word, making me regret ever leaving him. Tightening his grip on my waist, he gently bit down on my bottom lip.
“I came here to ask you something,” he whispered. “Can you promise to give me an honest answer?”
Too breathless to speak, I nodded.
“Not too long ago, you said that you had ‘almost’ everything you’d always wanted in life.” He looked into my eyes. “What’s missing?”
“Nothing. I was simply saying that I was happy.”
“You promised to be honest.”
“I am,” I said. “I’m restarting my company with business advisors this time, living in a city where I’m still finding new things to do every day, and married to a man who I somewhat love.”
“You’re somewhatlying,” he said. “Tell me what’s missing.”
“I could live like this forever and be happy, Travis. I promise.”
“I’m only going to ask you one more time.”
“I want a family.” The words rushed out of my mouth, unable to remain trapped inside anymore. “Preferably a big one, since I always hated being an only child and I never clicked with my step-relatives. But if that’s not something you’ve ever wanted, I understand, and I can compromise. Things can stay like this.”
“Shhhh.” He ended my sentence with a kiss and gently pushed me back against the wall. “Why didn’t you tell me about this sooner?”
“I wasn’t sure if you wanted the same thing.”
“I want whatever makes you happy,” he said. “But now that you’ve made that clear, you shouldn’t plan on leaving our bed again anytime soon…”
The End
