“Did I say something wrong?”

Cruz slips by quietly and returns to the back, shaking his head.

“If you just insinuated that we’d sleep apart tonight, then yes, you said something wrong.” His arms go to his hips as he glares at me. “I don’t give a shit about Natalie. What I do give a shit about is your body against mine. There will have to be a damn good reason to pull you out of my bed. You want to stay at your place, I’ll come to you.”

“Okay, no need to get upset.”

Wrong thing to say!

I whelp when he jerks me to him and covers his mouth over mine. His hands slide down and cup my ass as he kisses me roughly. My fingers clutch at his shirt as I lose myself. Heat and energy emanate from his body and seep into me. His cock grows hard against my stomach, and he groans.

“Sometimes I wonder if you get it, how much you mean to me.” He pulls away and leans into my ear.

“Hopefully, as much as you mean to me.”

“Then don’t ever suggest something as stupid as that again. It’ll be a hell of a reason for us to sleep apart.”

“Okay,” I whisper breathlessly.

“Tonight, text me when you get home and I’ll come to you.”

I nod.

“Tomorrow, I’ll get you a set of keys to my place. Do you understand what I’m telling you?”

I nod again.

“Good, now, let’s get out of here. Tonight, when we get to bed, I’ll show you exactly why you don’t want us to spend the night apart.” He slaps my ass and steps back.

Every time I think I couldn’t possibly love him more, he proves me wrong.

“I didn’t know it was that big of a deal. It seemed logical,” I explain to Cruz for the third time. “Excuse me for not reading the manual on relationship etiquette.”

“It has nothing to do with etiquette and everything to do with common sense. What am I going to do with you?” He grabs my hand and shakes hard.

“You and Alex don’t spend every night together.”

“Yeah, we pretty much do.”

“I was trying to give him his space.”

“Why? Do you think he needs space? Do you need space?”

I stop walking and turn to him. “Absolutely not!”

“That’s what it seemed like. You’re crazy about each other. He’s proven how much he cares about you. Seems like you trust him explicitly.”

“I do.”

“Then don’t be an idiot.”

I roll my eyes and blow out an exaggerated breath. “Are you done berating me for a rookie mistake, considering this is my first relationship ever?”

“Yes. Think my point was made. Now let’s talk about something serious.”

“What?”

“What are the chances you can keep your stomach hidden from Robbie for the next few days?”
