Nil.

Personal Note: Best impulsive decision ever

The thing about New Year's Eve is that sometimes the best moments come full circle.

"You're not seriously wearing that dress again," Sam said from the doorway of our bedroom, his eyes dark as he took in the red fabric.

"It's tradition." I smoothed down the fabric, fighting a smile as his gaze tracked the movement. "Besides, you like this dress."

"I like you in anything." He crossed to me, wrapping his arms around my waist from behind. "Or nothing."

"We're going to be late."

"We're the main act." His lips found that spot behind my ear that still made my knees weak. "They can't start without us."

"Sam..."

"Five minutes?"

"That line didn't work last time either." But I leaned back into him anyway. "And we were an hour late to the studio."

"Worth it."

A knock at our door saved me from giving in to the look in his eyes.

"If you two are having sex again, I swear to god—" Justice's voice carried through the wood. "We have a show in forty minutes!"

"We're coming!" I called back, laughing as Sam muttered "not yet" against my neck.

"Better not be!"

Sam's hands squeezed my hips once before releasing me. "One of these days I'm changing all the locks."
