Her hair was tied back in a ponytail and her long-sleeved white top hugged her body perfectly. Natalie’s familiar perfume drifted into her space as she said hello and came inside, her guitar case in hand.
Natalie left it against the wall as Sienna closed the door, and then Natalie wrapped her arms around her waist, her head tilting as their lips met in a slow kiss that Sienna felt in every cell in her body.
Sienna sighed as Natalie’s lips parted against hers, her hand sliding up Sienna’s side. She could kiss this woman for hours.
Sienna guided Natalie towards the wall, barely breaking the kiss as she pressed Natalie back against it, her thigh slipping between Natalie’s legs eliciting a low moan.
“We’re supposed to be working,” Natalie murmured between kisses, her voice throaty.
“I can be quick.” Sienna’s hands grabbed Natalie’s hip, the other finding her ass, pulling Natalie down against her thigh, and Natalie’s hips rocked as she brought her hand to Sienna’s cheek, bringing their lips back together in a hungry kiss, their tongues swirling, their breathing ragged.
Natalie had grinded against her thigh last night, but she’d been straddling Sienna, and an image of Natalie above her, her hand on Natalie’s breast as she rolled her hips sent Sienna’s pulse into overdrive.
“Oh fuck,” Natalie moaned now, her head falling back against the wall before she buried her head in Sienna’s neck, clinging to her, grinding against Sienna’s thigh until her entire body shook, a string of curses muffled against Sienna’s skin.
“Well, that was unexpected,” Natalie said with a smile, her eyes still closed.
Sienna’s heart swelled in her chest as she held Natalie up while she caught her breath. She was so crazy about Natalie. She knew it wasn’t good to be falling this hard this fast, but there was nothing she could to do stop it.
Natalie’s eyes slowly opened. “I’m going to need a minute.” Her cheeks were flushed, and Sienna slipped her arm around Natalie as they went over to the couch.
The doorbell rang, and Sienna had no idea who it would be. Anyone who wanted her just sent a text. But she glanced through the peephole and saw a delivery man holding a bouquet of roses.
Sienna opened the door, signed for them, a smile coming to her lips as she took them, letting the door fall closed behind her. She went into the kitchen and found a vase that would hold the flowers.
She returned to the living room with them where Natalie was leaning back against the cushions her eyes closed.
“I mean, I knew you were a romantic,” Sienna said, and Natalie’s eyes slowly opened. “Your lyrics make that clear, but it’s another thing to be on the receiving end. Thank you.”
Natalie’s eyebrows rose. “I didn’t send those.”
“What?”
Natalie just looked up at her. “I would have just brought them with me today.”
Sienna sucked in a breath, embarrassment threatening to darken her cheeks. “Oh.” There was only one other person who would send her flowers.
“I’m guessing they’re from Caleb,” Natalie said, voicing Sienna’s own thoughts.
“Yeah.” Sienna brought the flowers back into the kitchen, not sure what to do with them now. She came back with two glasses of water and got her own guitar, ready to get down to work.

Natalie had gone for a hike just above every day in the last two weeks. She wanted to take in the stunning foliage, the way the leaves had transformed from brilliant greens to rusty oranges and reds, but she also needed that time to think.
Today, she was on the trail that ran behind her cabin, knowing that Sienna would be stopping by within the hour to spend an hour or two practicing before she had to go to work. The fallen leaves crunched beneath her boots, and the rustle of squirrels scurrying up and down trees mixed with the chirping of birds as the afternoon sun shone through the branches.
Natalie knew she should be happy, but she just couldn’t allow herself to be. Well, she was when she was with Sienna, but the second she was gone, doubts started to creep in.
In a month, they were going to be recording Sienna’s songs in Frank’s studio. They’d both been working towards that date, practicing three or four times a week, which usually led to falling into bed together.
It was frightening how much Natalie’s life had changed in the three and a half months since she’d moved here. She’d only been here a month when she’d started to think this might be a place she could call home, but now that was a given.
And it was harder to believe that she’d only met Sienna two months ago. In some ways, it felt like they’d known each other for years, but then something would come up, like Sienna’s aversion to pickles when Natalie had been making burgers one evening that reminded them that they still had a lot to learn about one another from food tastes to favorite movies or tv shows to what an ideal vacation looked like.
That always scared her. The fact that she’d fallen so hard and so fast while not knowing so many things about Sienna yet.
When the trail brought her back to her cabin, she was surprised to see Sienna’s car in the driveway.
