Page 59 of Come to Me
My boyfriend is making me coffee.
I'm already smiling before I open my eyes.
And then it hits me.
Oh no.
I fell asleep last night! After revving things up, I came in here and... passed out.
And somehow managed to stay asleep in this utterly gorgeous silk lingerie.
Great. Nice one.
Groaning, I cover my face with my hands, imagining Luke waiting for me to come back out.
Well.
I drop my hands.
It happened. There's no use crying over spilled milk.
And hey—I'm already dressed to kill. All I need to do is wash my face and brush my teeth and I'll get Luke right where I want him.
By the time I rush through the bathroom, I'm feeling better.
Luke is in the kitchen, sipping a mug of tea, wearing nothing but his navy boxers. He has a shit eating grin on his face.
He's not going to make this easy.
He looks me over slowly. "That's some outfit for breakfast."
I give his body the same once over.
"And yours?"
He brushes his shoulders and chest like he's smoothing his shirt. "You like it?"
I nod. I do like it. And I'd like it even more if those were my hands on his body.
Luke stands and moves towards me. He places his hands on my shoulders and runs his fingertips over my collar bone. His lips are inches from mine and my body hums from the proximity.
He brushes his lips against mine, as softly as humanly possible. His hands slide down my shoulders.
I lean into him, grabbing his waist.
He kisses me harder, sucking on my lips.
Then, the microwave beeps. Luke pulls away, his face lighting up with a smile. "Your breakfast is ready."
"Fuck breakfast."
"Sounds painful." He slides his fingers over my spine, his touch soft and delicate. "Unless you have a banana you want to put in your oatmeal?"
I fold my arms. "I hate you."
He smiles and kisses me again, hard, a kiss that says you're going to wait. "We have a full day ahead of us. You'll need your energy." He pulls away from me, finishing fixes breakfast, and takes a seat at the kitchen table. His gaze returns to me, passing over my body again. "You look amazing."
Not amazing enough, apparently.
