“You did? When?”

“Was around midnight when I realized getting back was a lost cause. Why? You couldn’t sleep without me?”

She grinned a little. “I did wait, and not sure how I missed your text.” She shuffled to the bathroom and closed the door, eying herself in the mirror. “How long before you get back. Oh my God, you gave me a hickey,” she cried, looking at her neck in the mirror. “Are you trying to get us inmoretrouble?”

“Oh damn,” he chuckled. “I meant to give it somewhere more private.”

“Sarah is already suspicious.”

“Nah, I don’t think so,” he said.

“Well, I know I would be.”

“Crap, I need to call him back. How long will you be?”

“Hopefully back in an hour.”

She hoped so. He was crazy not to see or think Sarah wasn’t suspicious. “Good.”

“You can eat breakfast with Grand Pier and visit the lone mother.”

“And risk making him choke to death?”

“Awww Ma Petite Texas, you still worried about that?”

“Yes! I don’t wanna accidentally kill the thing you love the most.”

He laughed. “I have other things I love the most now.”

Her heart darn near exploded in her chest at that. “I know, my ass,” she teased, smiling.

“That issurelyranked near the top.”

Her smile grew bigger. “What’s at the tippy top?”

“Mmmm, that’s such an unfair question. Your smile, your lips, that fucking cute twang in your words. Your pussy is—”
