Kaitlyn stooped to pick up her clothes from the floor.
“It’s your leg. I get it.”
I shook my head. “No excuse. I promised yo
u things I haven’t done.”
“You couldn’t have known you were going to fall off a roof.” She held the shirt to her chest.
“Don’t you dare cover up your tits.” I eyed them. I wanted to lick and suck them. She was gorgeous. Perfect.
She smiled shyly.
“I’m serious,” I growled.
She let the shirt drop. “Like this?”
“I swear when these crutches are gone, I’ll fuck you upside down, baby.”
Her eyes lit. “Promise?”
“I miss it too, you know that?”
Her eyes lowered. “I love you for more than sex.”
I let out a deep breath. “I love everything about you, but I’m better at showing it. And this situation has been fucked up, I realize I’m not very good at telling you that unless we’re like this.”
Her eyes widened. “Then just say that. Tell me that. I can go down on you every night.”
I groaned. “And that is the reason I love you. What woman would make that offer?” I grinned.
“Me.” She turned her lips toward me and I kissed her.
My eyes darted to the driveway. “Fuck. Grayson is home. Lisa’s niece.”
“Oh my God.” Kaitlyn ran toward the bedroom. “We are so lucky. I’ll jump in the shower and be out in five minutes,” she called.
“It’s ok. I can get juice and snacks. Take your time.”
It was true I felt a hell of a lot better now that I had come. Relaxed. Happy. And motivated to get off these crutches.
The door opened and Grayson ran through the door.
“Daddy,” he squealed.
“Hey, little man.” I had to maneuver so he didn’t run into my bad leg.
He held up a drawing.
The babysitter stood behind him. “He said that’s the sun and a pig.” She shrugged. “I have no idea.”
I laughed. “Looks good. Do you mind putting it on the fridge. Kaitlyn will want to see it.”
Polly, Lisa’s niece used one of the clip magnets and added it to the display.
“Need anything else?” she asked.
“No. I think I’ve got it from here.”
