My December Darling

by Lauren Asher

To those who were torn between Doctors McSteamy and McDreamy… Get ready to fall in love with Doctor Darling.

McDreamy - always

Despite the pep talk I gave myself during the walk over to the restaurant about being on my best behavior and acting like a mature man in my early thirties, the moment I saw Catalina, all bets were off.

I slipped up when I called Catalina by her full name. She probably thought I did it strictly because I like to annoy her, but I just think her name is beautiful.

Most people in town call Catalina an ice queen, but everyone has a melting point. I just haven’t found hers yet.

Tonight, I didn’t only make Catalina Martinez laugh, but smile twice, and I’ll be damned because I’m already looking forward to when I can do it again.

“Making the most of two weeks with you seems better than spending a lifetime wondering what could’ve been.”

“That’s not the answer I was looking for.” I look up at him with a smile. “I’d rather keep you on your toes.” “You don’t have to try too hard when you’ve got me wrapped around your little finger.”

there is always room for love in our lives, so long as we are open to accepting the kind we think we deserve,”

“Lucas.” Her nickname earns her a hard suck on her clit. “Say my name.” “Fuck me first and maybe I’ll remember it.”
