He kisses my cheek on the way past, making my heart skip a beat. He smells good. Like he did that first night. Vanilla and hunky man.
And cake.
Yum.
“I’ll text Aaron to help carry the trays,” I tell Cal’s retreating backside, relishing the view unabashedly.
He pauses a few steps from the bedroom and turns to face me. “Mia, my face is up here.”
Busted.
Under protest, I force my gaze from his lower half to find him scolding me nonverbally too. And it makes my nipples stiffen.
He holds one finger up. “Don’t tell Aaron who made?—”
“I won’t. Don’t worry.” I draw anXover my heart. “Your secret is safe with me.”
He puckers his lips and blows me a kiss. Feeling a bit saucy, I catch it and then throw the air kiss toward the pie between my thighs.
With an indulgent head shake, he disappears into the bedroom to finish getting ready.
After I tap out the message to Aaron, I wander into the living room, approaching Charlotte timidly. “Hey, there. We’re leaving in a few minutes for the holiday party. I need to turn off the television, okay?”
Aside from a slight twinkle in her eye and a tiny nod, she’s mostly unresponsive. Much better than the alternative of resisting or panicking.
Looks like we’re starting the evening out on the right foot, which is great news since she’s coming with us to the party at Redleg. This is a big outing for us.
Me, on the other hand? Not nearly as chill.
Our last trip out of the house without Kate ended in disaster. But she’s out of town for the holidays. A well-earned vacation. That woman is a lifesaver. The compassion she shows Charlotte is nothing short of awe-inspiring. And she’s taught Cal and me how to minimize the distressing episodes when they occur.
Surprisingly enough, Mrs. Klein has done exceptionally well this week without Kate. Probably because Cal and I worked from home, attempting to keep things as stable as possible. Aside from calling me by a slew of random wrong names—none of them offensive—things have been uneventful. Routines are a marvel, and distractions can turn a pending episode around on a dime.Usually.
Even with the easy week and her current favorable demeanor, I’ve got a bad feeling about tonight.
For starters, everyone will be in costume at the party. Including us. However, what we’re wearing is quite tame compared to the extravagance I expect from the others. Mainly Sawyer, if my intel is reliable. And it always is. After the party was announced, his browser history was delightfully entertaining.
