Page 16 of Eight Naughty Notes

Ms. Davies released her hold on me and turned towards Dr. McDonnell and his two residents. “Thank you so much, Doctor. I’m eternally grateful for you saving my daughter’s life.” Then she rushed over to him and grabbed him into a tighter hug than she had on me earlier. When she let go of him his cheeks were red with embarrassment as if her attention was unexpected, but I wasn’t sure why, given he had to have received this praise before now.

“It was my pleasure, Ms. Davies. Let’s focus on making sure Jordan has a safe recovery.”

I sat with Ms. Davies until it was time to see Jordan out of recovery. When we arrived at the ICU, I scanned to see if I could find Christian, but he must have been busy because I didn’t see him amongst the staff at the nurses station. So after making sure Jordan was comfortable and Ms. Davies was good too, I headed to my office and when I walked in, I found one yellow rose lying on my desk. Beside it was a note.

I’m ready whenever you are.

-Christian

I picked up my phone and called him.

“Where are you?” I asked him when he answered.

“I’m with Jordan right now. But I’ll be headed out of here shortly. She’s stable and Peters, the attending, has a firm grasp of what’s needed for now.

“You’ve been here since yesterday.”

“Yeah. And I need to get a little rest so that I can give her what she needs. What about you?”

“What about me?”

“Where are you?”

“Oh, in my office. I needed to check on some results but I’m tired too. I know they can wait until morning because I didn’t receive any flags.”

“It’s time for you to get home now.”

“Is that an order or a wish?”

“An order.”

“And what if I only wanted to do that if you were coming with me.”

The line went silent while I waited.

“Are you sure?”

“Aren’t you?”

“Hell yes, Tori. And not just because I’ve been wanting to be inside of you, moving inside of your wetness as your body squares mine over and over. Not just because I miss the feeling of your soft lips wrapped around my dick. And not just because I can still remember the taste of your sweetness on my tongue.”

Damn.

“Then why?” I asked in a whisper.

“Because I love you and all those other delicious things come second to that. Come over to my place in an hour.”
