“Yep, we’re roommates. Sorry for not telling you back in town, but your day was already rocky, and I didn’t want me suffering the same fate as the computer.” He smiled sheepishly. “I hope you don’t hate me.”
“No.” My voice was weak. “May I have a seat?” I gestured toward the leather couch.
“Of course.”
I walked over and sat. Today was a day from hell. Not that having a hot guy as a roommate was bad. I’d have no complaints about watching him stroll around the house in his boxers…or briefs.
“Kathleen?”
“Huh?” How long had I zoned out?
“Want me to carry your bags in?”
“That’s all right. I’ll get them.” He frowned. “Something wrong with that?”
“Well, honestly, yes.” He sat next to me. “You’re a lady and I’m a gentleman. There are certain things a gentleman should do, like carry a lady’s bags for her.”
“I have hands. How do you think they got into my car?” I raised an eyebrow.
“I have no doubts of your capabilities, and if I had been there, you wouldn’t have loaded your bags.”
“Well, I did, so I can unload them.”
He shook his head. “I’m going to show you Southern hospitality. Not all men are spineless.” He appeared dead serious.
“We can unload them together.” I smirked, thinking victory was mine.
“Kathleen,” he said low, making me tremble. He leaned into me. “I have handcuffs.” Oh, my, yes, please handcuff me and have your way with me, sheriff. The thought of him naked and against me made my blood boil. I felt my cheeks flush. “I’m not afraid to use them to get my way.”
God, sign me up for that ride.
