I quickly jump around Luca, walking over to the floor next to the couch where he has been sleeping in his car seat for the last half hour. I’m sure the loud cheers startled him, and I hate I didn’t anticipate that.
Unbuckling him, I pull him out, tucking him to my chest to soothe him.
“He okay?” I hear Drago ask from behind me.
I look over my shoulder as I search for the bottle in his diaper bag. “Yeah, he’ll be fine once I get something in his mouth.”
Looking past him, I see most people are going to mill out the door since the game is over. Everyone buther.
“Hey, Drago”—she glides up next to him, placing her hand on his forearm—“can we grab dinner tomorrow night? I have something I need to discuss with you.” She glances down at me, and I see the smugness in her ice-blue eyes.
“No,” he tells her, stepping out of her grasp and closer to me. I stand, putting the bottle of formula in Gabe’s mouth. “Whatever you have to talk about can wait until tomorrow at work.”
“This is personal.” She looks affronted as she faces him, straightening her back.
“We don’t have anything personal between us.”
“I beg to diff.” She glances at me. “Could you excuse us?”
“No, she can’t.” Drago wraps his arm around my back, cupping my shoulder and tugging me next to him. “She’s my date, and you’re being a bitch. Go, Rebecca, before you piss me off.”
Her jaw drops, and I have to bite the inside of my cheek to keep myself from smiling. I’m smiling on the inside, and that’s enough.
“Fine,” she bites out. “We’ll talk tomorrow.”
Without another word, she backs away, turning and leaving, being the last out.
“I’m sorry, she is—”
“It’s nothing,” I follow up before he finishes. He handled that like a man should. I have no complaints.
“That shit really works?”
“Huh?”
“The formula.” He nods down toward Gabe, prompting me to look. Sure enough, he’s back to snoozing. “Think he’ll stay that way for a bit?”
“I don’t know. Maybe. Why?”
His lips slowly form a smile until he has a shit-eating grin on his sexy face.
“I’ll be right back. You put him back down and then don’t move.”
Okay, what’s up with that? I silently question, watching him jog out of the door.
Once I have Gabe situated with a blanket over him, I stand, watching him to make sure he isn’t going to wake back up. So far, he doesn’t, and by the time Drago comes back, I’m certain he’s down.
Coming up behind me, Drago wraps his arms around me, tightening them to hug me to his front.
“I’m calling in that rain check, sweetheart.” My eyes flutter closed when his warm lips land softly on the side of my neck, just under my ear. An electric surge sparks a trail down my back. “We have less than thirty minutes before we have to be out of here and I want to fuck you against that window.” He nudges my face, making me look in that direction.
I swallow hard. It’s glass and not the tinted kind preventing someone from seeing if they were to look up here.
Placing his hands on my hips, he gently pushes me to get me to move that way. I’m way too compliant, but I’d be lying if I said excitement and fear weren’t kindling deep inside me.
He positions us to face the window, me in front of him, looking out at the field.
“Did you have this in mind when you put this wrap dress on this morning?”
