“Baby, we have to get out there. Work needs to be done, and as much as I would love to pack it all up and go home with you right now, we can’t.”
I pouted but agreed with him. “Let's go. I'm sure someone needs us.”
He pulled me in for a quick kiss, then did a once-over of my outfit as if to ensure I was put back together.
“Does it look like I just had an orgasm?” I asked him.
He grinned. “Yeah, it does.”
I gasped. “How dare you? I don't want people to know that.”
He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and turned us towards the door. When he opened it, and we made our way through, he shook his head.
“Baby, everyone is going to know that you're mine before this rodeo is over. I am not going to risk them thinking they have a chance with you, nor am I going to be able to keep my hands off of you now. It's not an option. You need to get real comfortable with some PDA.”
I blushed at his words.
“Comfortable with PDA, huh?” I asked as we made our way back to where the rest of the events were.
He hummed as his eyes scanned across the space. I wasn't sure what he was looking for. For some reason that really upset me. I wanted him to be thinking of me. Especially after what we'd just done.
I used the arm wrapped around his waist to pull him to a halt. He glanced over at me, a curious look on his face.
I enclosed both arms around him, then tilted my head and puckered my lips. He laughed but gave me a kiss anyway.
It was as if the stadium went silent. At first, I thought it was us being caught up in the moment. Like maybe I’d gotten lost in his kiss.
When we pulled apart, I could see several people watching. Their eyes were wide, and their jaws hung open. A few even had phones out like they needed to capture this moment.
“Is this going to cause you trouble?” I asked Blaze.
He shook his head. “Not any more trouble than I already have. Besides, if they're biphobic, they shouldn't be here anyway.”
“I like the sound of that,” I told him.
“Good, because I intend for us to run this thing for many years to come. It would do well for them to understand how important you are to me. They can either get on board or get lost.”
As we continued on our journey all I could think about were the words he just spoke.For several years to come.
Did that mean he wanted me to stay with him on the Anders Ranch? Did he expect me to give up my life where I was now?
He couldn't pack up his land and animals, but I also couldn't just pack up my practice.
What the hell was I supposed to do?
I'd found someone amazing who I wanted to spend time with, but would distance be the thing to stop us before we ever got started?
Twelve
Blaze
The restof the afternoon was interesting. People seemed to want to stop me and chat.
As the person in charge, I tended to have to field a lot of questions. But it seemed like that number had quadrupled since I kissed my boy out in the open. The gossip mills were turning nonstop. I had women and men curious as to what was going on. A few even openly tried to flirt, which I shut down instantly. I wasn't going to get accused of cheating or even entertaining other people.
The only person I cared about was Robin. He held all my interest. And it would stay that way until he told me otherwise. We were exclusive while he was here. After… well, we’d have to discuss that. I couldn’t imagine letting him leave me with no plans for us to meet back up.
I’d broken my rules for him. Let down my guard. I’d be damned if we didn’t give it a shot.
