When she turned around, I groaned just looking at her. Freshly fucked, flushed and disheveled, and the sexiest thing I’d ever seen. Rubbing her thighs together, she had a devilish smile on her face. Her nipples, still hard from arousal, were on display through the thin shirt she was wearing.

“You are a vision, my beautiful Stella.” Placing a gentle kiss on her lips, I reached behind her for the coffee she’d poured earlier. “This little sex-capade is going to make me have to work late tonight. But it was worth it.” I kissed her once more before I left, knowing if I didn’t go now, I wouldn’t.

STELLA

I’ve had a buzz going all week. Ever since Nolan had his way with me in the kitchen, I’ve been on a high. You never quite realize how much you need your husband to show you he still wants you until he does.

The only downer is that I’ve hardly seen him since. He’s had to work late every night, which means I’ve been going to bed alone. The two older kids have had a decent week, but the baby is teething and hasn’t slept well, which means neither have I.

But T.G.I. Thursday! I wished my sister good luck with a cranky Katy and took off, needing my coffee today more than ever.

I’m curious if James is going to show me his drawing of me he did the other day. He wouldn’t let me see it before he left, telling me he needed to perfect it. After getting a look at the first one he drew of me here in the café, I’m sure it was amazing, but I didn’t want to press him if he wasn’t ready.

I smile into my cup of coffee when I hear someone enter. I can almost feel his presence without knowing it’s him.

Turning my head, I look to my right and catch his eye, smiling at him. He waves, making his way to the counter to order.

He sits in front of me with ease and a bright smile on his face. “You look happy today,” I muse.

“I’m here with you. Of course, I’m happy today.”

I cover my growing smile with my cup again, taking a sip of the sweet chocolate mocha I ordered.

“How was your week? Do anything fun and exciting?” he asked with a sexy little smirk, stirring his drink.

My cheeks flamed, thinking of my romp in the kitchen. I lifted a shoulder before answering. “It was okay.”

He looked up at me, piercing me with his blue eyes. “Is that so?”

“When do I get to see the picture you drew of me?” I ask, changing the subject.

Shifting in his seat, he sits up more, his turn to look uncomfortable. “I’m not sure,” he answers, clearing his throat. “I actually wanted to ask if, uh, maybe we could do it again?”

“Once wasn’t enough for you, huh?” I tease.

But those damn eyes hit me again. “Once will never be enough, Ray.”

I swallow nervously, shifting in my seat, feeling heated all over from the innuendo in his words.

“I don’t get away again for a few more weeks,” I admit and answer him all at once.

“I’ll count down the days then.” He smirks again before taking a sip of his drink.

Biting my lip, I nod slowly. “Alright then.”

We finish our coffees and muffins with relaxed conversation. I think I enjoy this the most. It’s such a huge part of what I’ve been missing in the past years. More than I realized, for sure.

This time when we stand to leave, it’s different. James takes my hand in his, his thumb running along my knuckles, sending tingles through me from his touch. He pulls me into his body, and when mine hits his, I melt unashamedly into his embrace.

It’s soft and sweet the way his hand goes to the back of my head, while the other stays on my back. He holds me to him like that as my arms wrap around him, holding on tightly.

We fit.

After a few minutes, his lips press to the top of my head. “I’ll see you,” he says into my hair before pulling away and leaving me. I miss his warmth right away, wanting it again.

My eyes follow him through the window as he walks to his car.
