“I miss you too. Did Mrs. Campbell turn in for the night?”
“Yes.”
“Are you in bed?”
“Yes.”
“Are the lights on?”
“Yes.”
“Turn them off.”
“Why?”
“Just do it.”
She rolled off the bed and flipped the switch, smiling to herself. Matt had the most wonderful ways of distracting her. A frisson of excitement went through her. She liked it when he took control and got a little bossy.
“Okay, they’re off.”
“Are you naked?”
She laughed. “No.”
“Get naked and lie on top of the covers.”
His voice had changed to that low, purr-y growl that she loved so much. It was a great voice for phone sex. Her girlie bits tingled in anticipation. It wasn’t as good as the real thing, but she’d take him any way she could.
“Now?” she teased.
“Right now.”
“Okay.”
“Are you naked? On top of the covers?”
“Yes.”

She opened her eyes, scanning the darkness. Yes, he was here. Watching her from the bottom of her bed.
“I know you’re there,” she whispered.
“Shh.”
Then, the bed dipped under his weight, and she forgot about everything else.

He left before dawn, sneaking out the same way he had come in—through her bedroom window. He had been just the grounding distraction she’d needed. After they’d slaked their haven’t seen each other for three whole days lust, he’d held her and listened as she laid things out. Matt was awesome that way.
Anna rose and took a shower, washed off the scents of her man and great sex, and went to the kitchen to start breakfast.
“I’ve decided I want the job,” Anna told Elsa over tea, yogurt, granola, and fresh fruit.
