"Hi, there."
"Hi, yourself, lady. I brought you some food."
Smiling drowsily up at him, she said, "Such service. Maybe I should keep
you, Cade. What do you think about that?"
"I think you'd be disappointed, ma'am. I turn into a plain ol'
inconsiderate, garden variety man on weekdays and I get downright mean on
holidays. Hope you like steak for lunch."
Sitting up, Beth said, "Steak is fine, Ed. I'll bet you don't change at all,
really. I'll bet you're like this all the time."
He shrugged. "Maybe so. Doesn't matter. You have to fly back to D.C. tonight
and I'll be in Florida by tomorrow. Let's just play some more and make the best
of our time together."
Tossing the sheet aside, Beth stood up. Cade eyed her nakedness as she
walked over to him and embraced him for a moment, then kissed him.
"You're a nice man," she said quietly. "You're good in bed, too. I could do
a lot worse, I think, if you were up for it."
Kissing her, Cade said, "Thanks, milady, but you're still too young and
beautiful to settle for less than you deserve. Try me again in a few years if
you can manage to stay single.
