Harper didn’t answer me for a long while. She gawked at me in disbelief, before she finally said, “Um. Yeah, sounds good.”

We unpacked all the boxes in the kitchen and found a new home for everything. She had this amazing coffee machine it was basically a little barista, it made cappuccinos, lattes, everything. I put that shit on the counter and replaced the basic coffee maker Asher and I used.

Once we broke down all the boxes, we headed into her new bedroom to get her clothes and the few décor items unpacked.

“Are you sure you don’t want to go shopping for some new shit for your room? Don’t girls like that kind of thing?”

Harper dragged a box over toward her dresser and said, “I’ve got all I need right now. And I don’t need a whole lot of stuff to decorate. Why are you so obsessed with me decorating my room?”

“I just want you to feel at home here Harps.” I said honestly as I opened another box.

“I’m good Micah. And seriously, thank you guys so much for letting me move in.”

Harper kept talking but I couldn’t hear what she was saying. I was zoned the fuck out because the box I was currently looking at was full of lacey panties, bras and a black lingerie set that sat on top.

I pictured Harper dressed in this lingerie piece, laying in the center of her creamed color bed with her knees slightly bent and her back arched. Her pale skin against the contrast of this black made me itch for my camera. I had the sudden need to photograph her.

Wait. Did she ever where this sexy as sin outfit for that fuckwit? The thought flooded rage through my veins. He didn’t deserve to see her dressed up like a goddess.

“Micah. Miiicccaaahhh. Hello?” Harper snapped her fingers, pulling me from my thoughts. “Where did you just go?”

“Did you ever fucking wear this for Theo?” So much for hiding my anger.

Harper stalked over to me and ripped the lacey material from my fingers. “Don’t go through my underwear you weirdo. And not that it’s any of your business but no he did not see me in this.”

She thumbed the fabric before dropping it in the box and removing the box from my sight. “I bought it last week. I thought if I wore it on our anniversary maybe we would…you know.” She shrugged her shoulders. “Obviously that's not happening. Maybe I’ll just return it.”

“The fuck you are. Harps, you would look hot as fuck in this. In fact, I think you should put it on right now and let me see how it looks. You know, just to prove my point.”

“You cannot be serious. You don’t want to see me in this.”

“I wouldn’t have said it if I didn’t.” I had to seriously fight the raging boner growing in my shorts.

Harper shrugged and said, “I mean I guess…”

“Hey guys, I’m back. What do you guys want to do for dinner? I’m fucking starving already.” Asher yelled from the kitchen. I’ve never wanted to punch him in the face before this moment.

Asher snapped Harper out of whatever little thought she was having. She dropped the black lace lingerie back into the box and shoved it in the closet.

She turned and shouted over her shoulder, “Micah suggested we do pizza for dinner.”

“Why don’t you and Asher handle ordering the pizza and picking the movies? I’ll finish these last couple of boxes and meet you guys in the living room.”

With that she gave me her back as she continued to hang items up in her new walk-in closet.

“Sure thing, sweetheart.”

When I walked into the kitchen, I made a beeline for Asher and punched him square in the arm.

“Ouch! What the fuck was that for?” Asher yelled.

I whisper-yelled, “That was for interrupting. I found this hot as fuck black lingerie in one of Harper’s boxes and I was this close,” I held my fingers close together, “to getting her to put it on for me, when your dumbass came home.”

“How the fuck was I supposed to know that?”

I ran my hands up and down my face and sighed. “I’m sorry bro. I’m just fucking keyed up from seeing that and finally having her this close. I just…” I took a deep breath in before continuing, “I may be a little jealous that you actually got to fucking hold and kiss her. I’ve wanted to for so long and I feel like I’m treading on a thin line. I want to make this work. She is right there in reach this time.”

Asher hung his head for a second before saying, “I’m sorry I kissed her, it shouldn’t have happened. She just…”
