bed. She studied the golden chain around her wrist as it lay on the pillow in front of her face. Two of the shamrock charms gleamed green. She rubbed her face into Patrick’s pillow, breathing in the rich smells as she sifted through the memories from the night.
The crack of a door opening drew her out of her thought. She turned her head to see her fantasy man step into the room. Her eyes ran over the toned muscles of his bare torso and down to the cotton sleep pants slung low on his hips. Rolling in the bed, she moved so she could see him better.
Patrick smiled at her. “Good morning.” He crossed the room with a rolling gait that sent little shocks through Cathren’s body.
Shifting to a sitting position, Cathren tucked the sheet in around her. “Good morning.” Contentment turned up the corners of her mouth as she brushed the hair out of her face.
“Did you sleep well?” Patrick rounded the bed, settled himself on the open side next to her, and kissed her softly.
“Mmmm.” She let out a contented noise from her chest. “Yes,” she answered when he pulled back to lean against the headboard next to her.

Cathern laughed as she set the plate down on the cloth.
“Well, go on,” he urged.
Picking up the fork, she cut a chunk off.
He watched in anticipation as she swirled the bite around in the syrup and stuck it in her mouth. “Wish granted!” he said happily.
She looked down at his arm and the shamrock set into his skin. All three of the leaves were colored with the most brilliant green she had ever seen. Raising her hand up, Cathren leaned over and touched Patrick’s cheek. “I love you,” she said softly.
“I love you, too.” Leaning in, he kissed her warmly. He pulled back before things got out of hand. “And here I thought waffles would be the easy wish.”
