I lean in, my breath hitching as I pull him flush to my body.

My chest grinds on his, and the sensation of his smooth skin on mine is almost too much to bear. "How about we head to the beach so I can try to help yours grow another inch?"

As hard as I am, I’d never desecrate the sanctity of my tub.

Never.

Ever.

It’s holy ground.

Like that Taylor Swift song.

Dino’s eyes sparkle. "I’d love that."

ChapterTen

DINO

Romeo squeezes my hand, leading me through the olive grove as we make our way to the sea.

Sunlight drifts through the canopy, lending a magical tough to the shrubs, roots, and rocks.

I thought I saw clouds congealing in the distance from the bathroom window, but by the time we’re outside in the warm weather, there’s nothing but blue sky.

How special today is.

How wonderful Romeo is.

I really want him to be my Daddy.

Romeo jabs my ribs. "Last one to the beach is a rotten egg."

Oh, a challenge?

Ha.

Romeo can joke with me all he wants, but only I shall win.

"You’re on."

Before Romeo can protest, I let go of his hand and make a beeline for the cliffs overlooking the Mediterranean.

I suck in quick breaths, refusing to let Romeo catch up to me.

As I run, I can’t help but think that, for some reason, I’m happier than I’ve been in my entire life.

I thought I had shit figured out before.

I told myself:I’m fine, my crush on Romeo is only a silly schoolboy fantasy, I don't need a man to feel complete.

I’ve never felt more fortunate to be wrong.

Romeo is… slowly dominating my universe.

The revelation that he played with toys in the tub and is therefore a super sensitive soul blew me away.

I was right to hold out for Romeo for all these years.
