“Yeah, better than me, Pixie. He deserves a woman that can accept his touch without waiting for the pain.” She took a deep breath. “Let’s move on to you and Suzy. It’s much more fun planning someone else’s future than thinking of my own.” She leaned over, staring at the picture before her. “Beautiful,” she said. “Suzy would love that.”
“You think?”
“Yeah. When are you taking her?”
“I don’t know.” He got to his feet. “I will go and see.”
Leaving Kitty alone, he made his way into James’s office. She looked up, smiling. “Hey.”
“Hey. So I’ve been thinking.”
“All right,” she said, placing her paperwork back on the table. She turned toward him. “I’m listening.”
“We need to spend some time alone. Away from the chaos of the club, and the people we’re close to.” He sat on the sofa and opened the booklet. “I want to book us a two-week vacation here.”
Pixie wanted her all to himself where he could enjoy being with her.
“It’s a Caribbean island. I can’t afford—”
“I can.”
“Pixie?”
“No, I want us to go away together. Would you go with me?”
“In a heartbeat.”
“Then we’ll go.”
“I just started a new job, and I don’t want to push James—”
“Already on it. You’ll go with me if I can get you time away?”
“Yes. I’d love to go with you.”
Pixie leaned over, pressing a kiss to her lips. “You’re amazing.” He so wanted to tell her he loved her. Instead, he kept those words to himself, and simply focused on making her smile.
“No, you’re amazing, Pixie.” She wrapped her arms around him, pressing her body against him.
Dropping the booklet, he held her close, pressing kisses to her neck, wishing they were alone. “Last night was torture.”
“Chloe knows.”
“A lot of people know about us,” he said. “Does that bother you?”
“Right now, not so much.” She moaned.
They were interrupted by shouting coming from the other room. Pixie groaned. “And so the chaos begins.”
She giggled. “Is it wrong I just want you to close the door, and take care of me?”
“Are you feeling horny?”
“Yeah, I think I am.”
“From virgin to horny. Damn, I’m good.” He pressed a kiss to her, and got up. “Be ready for this weekend.”
“That soon?”
