"Hello," I knocked on the door letting myself into Emily's apartment.

"Hanna!" she smiled when she saw me.

"I'm sorry to just barge in," I told her, "but the door was open."

"It's fine," she said ushering me into the kitchen. "Do you want anything to drink?"

"I'm good," I told her. "I just wanted to come by and drop this off."

"What?" she asked.

"Here," I placed a garment bag on the kitchen counter. "We just got this in and I thought it would be perfect for you."

"What's this for?" she asked.

"Anything you want," I replied unzipping it to reveal a floor length chiffon gown with a tropical floral pattern that was almost identical to the one I was wearing. "I just thought you should have it."

"Thanks Hanna," she said giving me a hug. "This is way too kind."

"That's not it," I smiled. I pulled out a tiny box from my purse containing a delicate necklace. "It's for Samara.

"She'll love it," Emily replied. "You really didn't have to."

"Look," I told her, "I really need to go. I'm meeting a friend. You're coming to dinner at my house right?"

"I wouldn't miss it for the world," she smiled walking me to the door. I gave her an air kiss and headed back to my car. I drove across town and pulled up to a cocktail lounge in Hollywood. I handed my key off to the valet and walked inside to meet Lacey, one of our best models.

"Sweetheart!" she gave me a hug when she saw me.

"Lacey," I smiled as we took a seat in the back booth. "I haven't seen you in so long. How was Europe?"

"Amazing!" she giggled. "Thanks for sending me there."

"Anytime," I replied.

"I'm gonna get a drink. Come with?" she asked running over to the bar. I followed her and ordered a water to go with her martini.

"Water?" she asked when we got back to the table. "Is there something you should tell me? Maybe a stint in rehab?"

"Not yet," I laughed. "Um...it's just that I'm trying to get pregnant. Alcohol kind of..."

"Shut up!" she laughed interrupting. "I didn't know you were the domestic type."

"Excuse me?" I laughed slightly offended.

"I mean," she continued, "you're kind and caring and compassionate but I just never knew you were interested in having a family."

"I always wanted it," I explained, "but it was really Caleb's idea."

"What?" Lacey was clearly shocked. "Who knew?"

"I know," I laughed. "He brought it up. I thought it'd be years before I'd finally have to beg him for kids."

"You do have that huge house," she replied. "He wouldn't have built you a mansion if he didn't want a huge family."

"Yeah, I guess," I sighed. "I never really thought about that."

The two of us continued chatting for hours about her recent publicity trip to Europe to help push my line and then she told me all about those amazing foreign guys that take you out for tapas and sangria. Finally it was getting late so we said goodbye and I headed for home.

"Hello," I called into the house when I arrived. There was no answer. I went to my office to take care of a few things before bed. I was just sitting down at my desk when I heard the garage door open. Caleb! I jumped up and slammed my computer shut and walked into the kitchen to find Caleb pouring himself a glass of water.

"Hey," he smiled when he saw me.

"How was work?" I asked wrapping my arms around his neck and he snaked his around my waist. Then he lifted me up onto the counter and leaned in close to kiss me. I wrapped my legs around him and leaned back allowing him to climb on top of him. I tugged at his shirt and pulled it off throwing it to the ground. He slipped his hands under my flowy maxi dress and ran his fingers along my legs.

"Are you commando?" he asked winking

"Baby," I whispered seductively. "There is nothing under this dress."

I watched as he bit his lip shaking his head.

"You tease," he laughed tugging at the zipper allowing me to shimmy out of my dress. Then he placed his lips on my neck sucking gently. I just knew there was going to be a mark in the morning. Luckily I do sell the leading concealer on the market.


"Can we just hang out in bed all day?" I asked lying in Caleb's arms on Saturday morning.

"I can hardly argue with that," he laughed.

"You know what?" I smiled. "I could actually use a bath."

"Would you like some company?" he winked.

"You'd have to get out of bed," I teased as I rolled out from under the sheets. I got up to run the bath and added extra bubbles before crawling in. A few minutes later Caleb was jumping in after me. I slid in between his legs leaning my head against his chest.

"Do you have any work to do this weekend?" he asked.

"Nope," I replied. "I'm all yours."

"I hate to ruin the fun," he said, "but I need to get into the office in an hour."

"What?" I pouted. "I thought we were spending the day together."

"I know," he sighed. "I just got the message a minute ago. There's an issue with one of the suppliers and I need to get it done before Monday. I promise it will only take a couple hours."

"Can't you do it tomorrow?" I pleaded.

"I wish," he said rubbing my back. "The sooner I finish, the sooner we can get back to this."

Caleb hopped out of the tub and grabbed a towel to wrap around his waist. Then he bent down to give me one last kiss before getting dressed. I leaned back in the tub watching the last of the bubbles dissipate.
