She caught his hand in hers and held it tight. “Now I think it’s your turn to purr…” Her gaze flicked down to his now exceptionally hard erection.
He couldn’t think of anything he’d like more than having Kat make him purr. But despite the teasing tone in her voice, he could see the exhaustion on her face, the way her eyelids fluttered with the need for sleep, and the lazy way she rolled to her side to face him.
Never mind how she’d only very recently finished telling him how busy her week had been and how little sleep she’d had. As much as he’d love to take things further, he was a gentleman. And considering he was already breaking about a million bro codes,maybe he should just quit while he was ahead.
“You’re exhausted, Kitty Kat.” She didn’t object when he moved closer on the bed and gathered her up in his arms. Andy shifted her so she was sprawled over him, her head on his chest, her bare breasts pressed against him—a detail that was doing nothing for his increasingly painful erection—and her arm draped over him.
It was perfect. She was perfect.
“Rest,” Andy murmured as he stroked her hair and her breathing fell into the easy rhythm of sleep.
Happy for right now?
Fuck yes. Right now, like this, he was immeasurably happy. And tomorrow morning, when Kat was properly rested…well, it made him even happier simply tothinkabout it.
Chapter Six
Kat was havingthe best dream.
Only it wasn’t a dream. It was real.
When her eyelids fluttered open in the early morning sun, she confirmed it. Andy was sleeping next to her. His bare chest was turned toward her. His arm lazily draped over her and resting lightly on her hip.
Holy shit.
Kat blinked hard. And then again.
Yes. It was definitely not a dream. This was real. What they’d done was real. His mouth on her pussy. The way he’d pulled so much pleasure from her—and so easily, too.
Her body shuddered just remembering how amazing he’d made her feel. But then…
She’d fallen asleep.
Kat’s hand flew up to her face, and she only barely stifled a groan.How could she have fallen asleep after what they’d done? How was it even possible that her body would shut down at sucha moment when the only thing she wanted was within her grasp? How could?—
She knew exactly how. She’d been exhausted after all the early mornings and late nights at the styling conference. She’d been going nonstop for days, and then the wine…she hadn’t had much. But then again, she hadn’t needed much. No wonder she’d fallen asleep.
She let her eyes drift over Andy’s body. His chest moved up and down as he continued to sleep peacefully, completely unaware that she was watching his every move. And memorizing every single one. The blissful memory of this moment would have to last her for years to come, because she’d meant it when she told Andy she didn’t believe in fairy tales. And she certainly didn’t believe in happy-ever-after. Not when it came to the two of them.
Kat wasn’t surprised that her instincts had been right when it came to how he’d felt about her, too. Her own crush on Andy had been building for years, but when she’d seen him at Craig’s grand opening, Kat hadn’t missed the way Andy looked at her. Like he saw her for the very first time. She’d noticed the way his nostrils flared, just a little bit. And the way his pupils dilated when she’d tossed her hair.
She’d seen every bit of it.
Because she’d been watching.
As much as Kat would have liked to lay there and watch Andy sleep all morning, the growing pressure of her bladder had other ideas. She’d take a moment to freshen up and then she’d wake him up. After all, she wasn’t anywhere near finished with him. They’d agreed on happy for right now,and as far as Kat was concerned, there was a lot more happiness to be had for both of them.
With a grin on her face, she slipped from the bed and padded out to the living room where she’d left her purse.
It wasn’t until she was safely in the privacy of the bathroom that she pulled her phone from her purse.
Six missed calls and at least ten text messages. All from her best friend back home, Annie Darling.
She hesitated to tell her best friend what had happened, but only for a second before quickly typing in a text to Annie.
Kat: You’ll never believe where I am right now.
It only took seconds for Annie to reply.
