“Sorry. Lucky likes to try to get on my lap when I’m doing things. He never wants attention when I want to give it to him.” She put the kitten down, but it jumped back up and was walking around her.
“Does he sleep with you?”
“I’m not sure where he sleeps,” she said. “Sometimes I wake up and he’s on my chest; other times he’s not even in the room. He roams at night. I think he’s still trying to figure it out. It works for us.”
“Kind of like us trying to maneuver this?”
“That’s a good way to think about it,” she said. “Are you going to sleep on my chest too?”
“I’d probably squish you, but I’d like to be next to you.”
“I’d like that too,” she said. “But I’ve got some bad news.”
“What’s that?” he asked.
“I’ve got to fly to California on Thursday. It’s a last-minute thing. I can’t go into too many details, but it’s work-related. My mother is flying with me. I’ll be back the following Tuesday. We are going to take a few days there to relax since it’s the long holiday weekend.”
“Good for you,” he said. “Maybe we can try to find time to see each other the following weekend? I’ve got my sister’s commencement ceremony on Tuesday. That’s why my mother is coming. She’s staying the week and both my sisters will be here for the long weekend.”
“Sounds like we both have plans anyway, but I’d like to see you the following weekend. Or anytime sooner once I’m back.”
“We’ll make it work,” he said. He heard his phone going off. “Hang on. I’m getting a notification on my phone and it’s in the kitchen.”
He put his laptop down and ran to grab it, saw his mother saying she was coming up the street.
“Everything okay?” Emma asked when he walked back.
“My mother is here. I’ve got to open the gates,” he said.
“Gates,” she said. “Fancy.”
He laughed. “I’ll reach out later if I get a chance. If not, I’ll be in touch.”
“I know you will be,” she said. “I’m pretty hard to resist.”
She disconnected before he could say she didn’t know the half of it.

“Give me a kiss,” Emma said, yanking Warren into her arms the minute she opened her door almost two weeks later.
Her arms went around his neck, her mouth opening for his, then she jumped up and her legs circled his hips.
She hadn’t realized she was grinding against him until he had her back against the wall and his hand sliding under her shirt.
“Is this what you want to do right now?” he asked.
She dropped her head on his shoulder. “I’m sorry for attacking you like that. Wow. The past several weeks of the teasing we’ve been doing on the phone and videos.” She was waving her hand in front of her face. It was like her signature move. “I’ve never self-relieved myself as much in such a short period of time as I’ve been doing with you.”
“You’re not helping me any,” he said, growling.
She wiggled down and noticed the tip of his cock was close to his waist pressing against his shorts. Oh yeah, he was feeling the same as her.
“You know what I realized a few days ago?” she asked.
He’d dropped his bag by the door. “What’s that?” he asked.
