“I’ll have coffee, the champagne is for you.”
“Save the champagne for us.”
I walk to the table and sit, adjusting her in my lap, and hand her an envelope.
“What’s this?”
“Open it.”
She takes out the paperwork and reads through, her eyes growing wide. “We’re staying in a suite?”
“We are.”
“And we’re staying extra days?”
“Seems like someone knows how to read.”
She swats me with the papers. “Don’t be a smartass. I didn’t even know I was going to be allowed to stay with you.”
“Where the hell else would you stay?”
“I figured they’d put me in a room with another nurse or something.”
“First of all, we’re talking about one of the top children’s hospitals in the country. This isn’t a micro-budget trip. You’re a professional, not a college kid on a beach weekend where everyone piles in a room. Second of all, no way in hell would you stay anywhere but with me.”
“Testy, testy.”
“Did you really think I’d let you room alone?”
“Maybe? Remember, this is my first time. You’ve done this plenty.”
“This time, I think it will be much more enjoyable.”
“Once again, you pulled the boyfriend card and went to Evie to request my time off.” She scowls, but it’s hard to take her seriously with the sparkles on her face and glitter now sprinkled in her hair from last night.
“Didn’t go behind your back, just sped up the process of getting it arranged.”
“Very presumptuous of you.”
“Are we going to argue about this?”
She chews on her bottom lip, lowers her eyes back to the itinerary and then to mine. “No, we’re not going to argue.”
“Good because I want a kiss, then I want to fuck you before I leave you in bed and go to work.”
“Presumptuous.” Her voice dips low and raspy.
I skim my hands up her arms, over her shoulders, around her neck, and fist my fingers at the back of her scalp. “If I pull theses sticks out of your hair, are we both going to be covered in unicorn fairy dust?”
Her lips split wide, and she reaches up, yanking them out, and glitter spills down on us. “Oops.” She eyes the mess. “Guess I went a little crazy at the party.”
“You know, it took me almost thirty minutes to wash this off in the shower when I got home earlier.”
“This time, it will take half the time. I’ll help.”
“Let’s go.” I haul her up, knowing I’ll be covered in glitter when I leave.
