don’t want you to think I’m expecting anything dressed like this because that’s the last thing on my mind. Well, it’s not the last thing, but I won’t let it happen. I only own one pair of pajama bottoms and…well, I slept in them last night.”
“It’s fine, Tyler. Really.”
Once in bed, Tyler pulls my back close against his chest… so close that we’re nearly the same person and I can feel the beating of his heart against my back.
He’s here.
Alive.
And he loves me.
Peace.
Charlie hops up and nuzzles into my front, then gently placing a kiss on my neck right below my ear, Tyler lovingly whispers, “Sweet dreams, my beautiful girl.”
And for once…I do.
WHEN TYLER LEFT for work this morning, I felt a little sad, but it’s probably good that he left. The last thing I need is to become dependant on him, expecting him to always be here. I’ve done that before.
During our marriage, Matt and I argued a lot, so to keep the peace I let him make all the decisions and I didn’t do anything without his approval. Looking back, I’m aware I was slowly morphing into a Stepford wife.
I won’t let that happen again.
Not feeling very motivated, I decide to stay in and snuggle up on the couch with my little man and watch some chick flicks. The last couple of days have been emotionally exhausting, so some down time is probably a good idea.
I don’t realize I’ve fallen asleep until my cell phone starts to chirp. I know who the text is before I look at it.
T: Hey beautiful. Checking in. Miss u <3 Do u need a break or should I come over after work? T xx
B: Missed u today 2. Would really like to see u. If u r ok with that. B x
T: Good! See you soon. Pizza and beer?
Me: Sounds great! Pepperoni and mushroom, please. xx
A couple of hours later he shows up in black basketball shorts and a faded, blue tank carrying pizza and beer. I was hoping he would come over in his work clothes. I’m a sucker for a man in a suit, but he does look incredibly sexy in his shorts.
Tyler puts the beer in the refrigerator as I grab two plates from the cupboard. We’re about to dish out the pizza when the phone starts to ring and I’m greeted by my none too happy best female friend.
“Seriously, did I do something to piss you off?”
“Hey Jenna, no…I’m sorry I haven’t called. I’ve had a lot going on lately.” I haven’t spoken to her all week, and I feel really bad because we usually talk on a daily basis.
“I’m only fucking with you. Everything okay, B? I could come over it you aren’t busy. We could make margaritas?”
I hesitate for a moment biting on the tip of my thumbnail. Do I tell her that Tyler’s here, or do I make up another excuse. “Why don’t you come over? Ty just got here with pizza and beer.” He turns to face me as he hands me an icy beer.
“You two have been spending a lot of time together lately, huh? Anything you wanna share?” She knows there’s something going on. Jenna is anything but stupid.
“Are you coming over or not?”
“Ya, ya. I’ll be right over.”
Tyler’s staring at me with raised brows and tilted head as his throws his hands out, questioning me. “That was Jenna. She hasn’t seen me all week, so she wants to come over and check up on me. Oh, and just so you know. I think she’s on to us.” I quickly take a swig of my ice cold beer. “How do you feel about her knowing?” I ask as Tyler walks over to me, encasing me in his strong arms.
“The better question would be, how do you feel about Jenna knowing about us? I would be happy if the whole world knew, but I want to make sure you’re ready to let everyone know first.”
I lift my head and look into his eyes—eyes that melt my heart with a simple glance.“I don’t want to hide us, Tyler. If we’re going to work, we can’t hide.” I reach up and kiss his lips as my front door flies opens.
Busted.
“Holy Shit! I fucking knew it!I knew there was
