“Speaking of work, I got to get back to it.”Ethan spoke up.“Stace, you're welcome here anytime.Gage, why don't you walk her out?”
Gage felt himself nodding.Slipping his arm around Stacey again, they headed toward the elevators.After not seeing her in months, and not talking to her in weeks, he was like a starving man around her.Once in the empty elevator, he pinned her to the back wall, kissing her desperately.
Stacey felt like she was floating.The feel of her back pressed against the wall and her front against the rock-hard body of Gage was like a high she didn't want to come down from.When she reached for him, he gripped her wrists in one large hand and pinned them over her head.God, she loved when he did that.She whimpered feeling his cock pressing into her.
“Gage.Oh god.”she breathed, his lips now on the side of her neck just below her ear, his tongue tracing slow languid patterns.
“Fuck Stacey.I want you so bad right now.”Gage growled, nipping the delicate skin.
“Whoa there big boy,” Stacey panted, “Before you get in my pants, you at least owe me dinner.”
Gage chuckled as did Stacey.His laughed turned into a slow moan as he kissed her once more.This time the kiss was gentler.Stacey's arms slid around his neck as she returned his kiss with one of her own.He slowly set her back on her feet and his hands came up to cup her face before pulling his lips from hers.
“In that case, come to my place tonight.I'll cook us dinner.”he offered.
“All right, what time?”she nodded.
“Say seven?”
“Seven it is.”
Gage pulled her into his arms and held her as the car continued down to the lobby.Stacey breathed him in, her head resting against his chest.At six foot three, he towered over her mere five foot, four frame.She often found it comical that despite their height difference, they still seemed to fit together.When the elevator door opened, the two stepped out.
“You mentioned your house was near mine?”Gage inquired, looking down at her.
“Yep.Once it's all set up, you'll have to come see it.”Stacey winked.
“I sure will.”Gage chuckled, holding open the door for her.
Stacey proceeded him toward her recent purchase.With a saucy smile, she leaned against the sleek Ducati Diavel.“Well?”
Gage let out a low whistle in appreciation, “Wow.Now that's a thing of beauty.”
“You talking about me or the bike?”Stacey teased.
“Both.Christ, woman the idea of you on that bike...”he cut himself off as his cock throbbed.
“Well, after all the fun we've had on yours I wanted one.The day after I got here, I went to Krista's bike dealer and got this baby.”Stacey swung her leg over the bike and reached back for the helmet.“Maybe this weekend, before I get bogged down with work, we could take off on our bikes.”
“I think I just might be free this weekend,” Gage smiled, moving to her, and deftly doing up the chin strap.“Be careful and I'll see you tonight.”
Stacey leaned in and kissed him, “Seven it is.See you, big boy.”
Gage laughed as he watched her take off down the street.Shaking his head, he turned and re-entered the building.His mind already starting a checklist of things he would need for dinner.He would make her favorite shrimp linguine with tomato and basil.There was a place on his way home he could pick up fresh Italian bread, fresh shrimp, and her favorite wine.Gage stepped into the elevator whistling with a bounce in his step.Stacey was in Austin.

Stacey walked intoher new house to the sound of music and lots of laughing.“What did I miss?”
Krista turned from the box she was unpacking, “Wow, I figured you'd take longer.”
“God you're such a dirty bird.”Stacey snorted in disgust.Then broke into laughter when Krista flipped her off.“We didn't have THAT kind of reunion.Yet.He's cooking me dinner at his place tonight.Besides, he and I need to talk.”
“Talk?Uh-oh.You guys aren't breaking up, are you?”Tiffany asked, frowning a little.
“No, no.Or at least I don't think so.”Stacey reassured her.“You see, for nearly two years now he and I have been, well together.Yet we never really labeled what we are you know?Are we a couple?Friends with Bennie’s?”
