Chapter 7

I woke up the next morning and rolled over. I was disappointed when he was not there. Was that just a dream? No, I'm naked and I could still feel his warmth in the bed.

Then I heard him say" Sorry Sam, I'm going to be a little late. I don't know what time I'll be there but you'll see me when you see me."

Then I heard him coming up the stairs. I pretended that I just woke up and was stretching. He had a tray with breakfast in his hands.

"He y sleepy head, you hungry? He asked.

He sat the tray down on my lap, eggs and toast and OJ. It looked good. I was famished. Then I heard the music start.

"I found another CD with music I like on it. I hope you don't mind."

"Nope" I said as I took a bite of my toast.

He sat down beside me and said "listen to this song" right as Zapp and Roger sang, hey, Lady I let me tell you what! I can't live my life with out you. Every time I see you walking by I get a thrill. You don't notice me. I must make you understand. I wanna be your man.

I opened my mouth to talk and he put his finger on my lips and said "Listen. " I sat there as he put his hand down my mine and laced his fingers in mine.

The song went on ,

When song faded out and I smiled and said "yes! I want you to be my man." He grabbed my face and kissed me.

"Sorry, but I have to leave you. Sam has been calling me for the last hour wanting to know where I am. We have another job today."

"It's okay. Will I see you later?" I asked.

"Of course, I'm your man and you can't get rid of me." he laughed and kissed me on the fore head and left.

I finished my breakfast and set the tray on the nightstand. I leaned over to the side of the bed where he had been and took in a deep breath of his smell. I laid there in bed for awhile. I didn't want to get up and leave where he had been but I better get a shower.

I stood there under the hot water and relived the whole night. Wow, so this is what it felt like. Then I thought. He must have said I love you last night!
