Page 5 of Love Me Again

"I'm leaving for Miami in an hour." He tells me with a tired sigh, and I frown, sitting upright.

"What? Why?" I ask, and he lifts his head, rubbing my thigh.

"There's a major fuck up with that project for the new airport. The client is enraged and wants to meet with me tomorrow morning." He explains, brushing his fingers through his tousled hair.

"How long will you be gone for?"

Cole licks his lips and looks at me. "It shouldn’t be longer than a couple of days. I doubt it will take much longer than that, baby. Do you want to come with me?" Hesuggests, and I pout, shaking my head.

"I wish I could, but I've got that meeting with the Bryson twins for their swanky new club tomorrow afternoon," I tell him, and he nods with a groan and pulls me to him, so I was straddling him. "Can't you send someone else?"

"No. It's a billion-dollar project. I have to go and calm the client down before he pulls the plug on it and gives it someone else." Cole explains, placing his hands at my hips.

"Well, it's only a couple of days, baby. It will give us time to miss each other a little." I say with a playful smile, and he presses his forehead to mine.

"Are you sick of me already?"

I cup his face with my hands and look into his eyes. "Sick of you? Are you kidding? It's not possible to be sick of you with all the tricks you can do with that tongue of yours." I drawl with a coy smirk, and his lips curl into a haughty grin while he watches me.

"Careful now, I might start to think I'm only good for one thing." He murmurs, sweeping his nose over mine.

"Two things," I whisper impishly. "You're good with your little sausage too." I correct him, and he laughs deeply. "Why do you think I married you twice? Good dick is difficult to come by nowadays." I tease him and gasp when he lifts me and lays me down on my back on the sofa while he crawls up over me.

"So is good pussy," Cole breathes, staring hungrily into my eyes. "Looks like we're both privileged in that particular department." He declares austerely, his emerald green eyes gleaming.

"I believe we are." I kiss him softly while I snake my arms around his neck. "We can use this time apart to do all the fun stuff that we missed out on doing. We skipped the whole dating part of our relationship. Twice."

Cole looks at me questioningly. "I’m listening…"

I grin and kiss along his jaw, "Well, we can have phone sex..." I whisper in his ear, and he moans. "I can tell you all the things I will do to you when you get back home." Cole squeezes my hips a little and rocks his own up against me. "I can send you some racy pictures of myself, and you can send me a dick pic."

Cole laughs gruffly, "Baby, I have never sent a dick pic to anyone." I bite my lip, smiling wickedly.

"Well, then, here's your chance, big boy." Cole chuckles, and I pull his mouth to mine, kissing him ardently. We've not been apart since we got married, so sending him off was hard. I've got so used to having him around, and I had this niggling feeling in the pit of my stomach. Cole wraps his arms around me and pulls me against him. "You call me as soon as you get there. I don't care what time it is." I say, peering up at him, and he nods before pressing his forehead to mine.

"I will, I promise." He replies, cupping my face in his hands and kissing me slowly and deliberately as if he were trying to carve every inch of my mouth into his brain. "I love you, baby. I'll see you in a few days. If you need anything while I'm away, you call Josh, understand?"

I nod, "I love you so much. Finish up and hurry back home to me." I wrap my arms around his neck, and he hugs me tightly in return. "I wish you didn't have to go." I sigh, and he squeezes me and buries his face into my neck, inhaling deeply.

"Me too, but I'm going to be back home with you and our princess very soon," Cole assures me, and I nod, pulling back. Cole kneels in front of me, places his hands on my belly, and presses his lips to it, closing his eyes. "Take care of your mummy for me, princess. Daddy will be back before you know it. I love you, baby girl." I watch him with a pout, and he smiles lovingly at me as he stands and kisses me one last time before he walks out. I sigh sullenly and watch him open the car door. Cole looks at me, smiling handsomely; he kisses his fingers and places them over his heart. I smile and do the same back to him, we stare at one another for a lingering moment before he gets in the car, and they drive off.

I close the door and lean against it with a heavy sigh. I look down at my stomach and press my hand against my baby bump. "Looks like it's just the two of us for a couple of days, baby girl." I sigh sullenly and smile when I feel her kick. I couldn't sleep the first night without Cole next to me. I missed him terribly, so I hugged his pillow and waited for him to call me. It was a nine-hour flight to Miami—he should have landed by now. It was past three in the morning in London. I jump when I hear my phone ring and answer it in a flurry. "Cole?"

"Hi baby." I sigh when I hear his voice. "I just got to the hotel. Please tell me you didn't stay up all night waiting."

"I couldn't sleep without you," I tell him, and I hear him sigh on the other end. "I got worried when you didn't call."

"I'm sorry, sweetheart, I wanted to call you as soon as I landed, but my phone signal is playing up over here." He explains, shuffling around. "You should get some sleep, honey."

I shake my head. "The house is so empty, and our bed is cold without you," I sigh, getting emotional again. "I really miss you."

Cole sighs. "Oh, baby, I miss you too so much. Please don't cry. I'm going to be back in two days, okay? I nod, biting my lip. "Let me see that gorgeous face." I pull the phone back when it beeps, alerting me that he was requesting a video call. I accept and wait for it to connect. I smile when I see his handsome face appear on my screen. He grins sexily, "There's my baby."

"Hey stud." I sigh, laying down on the bed. We spoke for a couple of hours--he even let me watch him shower. "Hey, the camera is steaming up. I can't see anything." I giggle as he steps out of the shower, dripping wet, and wipes the lens so that I could see clearer.

"Better?" He laughs, running back to the shower again.

"No, better would have been me being in that shower with you,"
