“Not at all. I like it, and I can live with it.” Her cheeks were once again flushed.
“This is about us.”
“Yeah, it is. You don’t compare.”
“No. I don’t.” He dropped a kiss to her lips. “Do I have to worry about the wicked sister turning up?”
“No. I kicked her out. I lost my temper. I really shouldn’t have. It’s all my fault.”
“Tell me all about it.”
Pulling out of her pussy, he disposed of the condom, following her into her bathroom, where she added more hot water to her bath as she told him everything. He found it rather interesting that Summer had used her sister over the years. Kind of sad, too, that Autumn had put up with it.
“You’re not going to date him?”
“Hell no. Why would I date someone I’d probably sleep through?”
“You slept through a date before?” he asked.
“Yeah, a couple of times.” She flapped her hand at him. “It’s no big deal. I like to tell myself it’s not a big deal, but clearly it is.”
He chuckled. “You wouldn’t fall asleep on a date with me.”
“I don’t even doubt it.” She climbed into the tub and patted the water. “Care to join me?”
“You don’t have to ask me twice.” Instead of climbing in opposite her, he moved in behind her, drawing her closer. He closed his eyes, breathing in her scent, knowing without a doubt that he’d finally come home.
Chapter Six
The next couple of weeks went by in somewhat of a blur for Autumn. One moment she was in the tub with Carter, enjoyin
g conversation, and the next, she was back at work, and he was full with dealing with broken down cars. They didn’t have much time for each other, but, however, they did talk. There were also a couple of trips to the bakery, but no actual fun time other than some flirting, which was nice. She couldn’t ever recall being flirted with.
Carter: Sorry I couldn’t swing by today. Business is booming, and I can’t turn it away.
Autumn: No need to apologize. I get it, I really do. I’d be the same.
Carter: that heart for me?
Autumn: Of course. I have spell checker, awesome, right?
Carter: Ha-ha.
Autumn: I wanted to do my exams with phone, wouldn’t let me. :)
Autumn frowned as her cell phone started ringing. “Hello.”
“How did you do in your exams?”
“I did okay. I didn’t get high scores. I feel sorry for the people who had to mark them. I bet they were laughing the whole way through.” With her problems with spelling, she’d got a cell phone that held a dictionary. She could make out the words, and knew what she was trying to say. The auto correct and dictionary helped her a lot.
“Don’t. Don’t put yourself down.”
“We’ll always be at odds over this. Why are you calling me?”
“Why not? We’re texting. I wish you’d let me come ‘round to your place.”
She sighed. “I’d love you to be here, but you’re working, and I don’t want you to get hurt.”
