sexy.
“ Whassup beautiful? ”
Tilting my head, I stared up into
Kaleb ’s eyes as he leaned down to kiss
my lips. “Who do we have here?”
I stepped away and beamed down at
my baby. “This is Honey.”
“ Hey Honey!
C ’ mere boy.”
Honey started jumping up and down.
Kaleb smiled while he rubbed him behind his ears. “He’s a cute
little dog.”
“ Thanks. He ’s my baby.” You can tell
a lot about a man when it comes to your dog. Like I had placed in
my personal ad, Honey and I were a package deal.
“ Where are you taking me?” I asked
for the thousandth time, and hated he still hadn’t told me where we
were going.
“ Damn, you don’t believe in
surprises, do you?” he teased.
“ I just like to know.” Kaleb said
clear my schedule for the entire afternoon. Hell, I don’t do that
for just anybody.
“ We aren’t going
anywhere.”
I frowned. “What do you mean, we
aren’t going anywhere?” Hell, I didn’t spend all morning getting
ready for nothing.
“ We ’ re not going anywhere until you
go back upstairs and put on something
comfortable.”
I glanced down at the blue
sundress and four inch sandals. “This is comfortable. ”
“ No it isn’t. I said wear jeans
and tennis shoes. Now get back inside and change.” He swatted me
playfully on the butt then pointed toward the door.
It sounded like a command and
after a controlling father, I normally didn’t take too well to a
man telling me what to do. But for some reason, I actually enjoyed
it when Kaleb did it.
I invited him inside and he played
with Honey, while I disappeared upstairs and frantically searched
my closet for my favorite skinny jeans. I slipped on a fitted
Mizzou t-shirt and a brand new pair of white Nike sneakers. “How is
this?” I said as I stepped back into my living room to find Kaleb
looking at the photographs I had displayed on my book
shelves.
He swung around, and his approval
shone in his eyes. “Good job.”
I
don ’t know why his approval was so important. I guess I
just didn’t want to miss out on what could possibly be my
life.
“ Who is this?”
I looked over to see which
photograph he was referring to. “That ’s my brother
Brice.”
He glanced at me skeptically. “You
sure he isn’t one of your men?”
It took everything I had not to
roll my eyes. Men can be so damn territorial. “No,
that ’s my younger brother. And I don’t
have a man.”
“ Really? Then what am I? Chopped
liver?” He stood there with this serious look waiting for a
response.
Grinning, I stepped over to the
bookshelf. “ I don’t remember you saying
anything about being exclusive.” Trust me. I wouldn’t forget
something like that.
Kaleb returned the picture frame
to the shelf, then faced me as he said, “Does it have to be spelled
out? I could be out there spending my time with someone else.
Instead, I ’ m here with you.
I ’ m crazy about you. You can’t
tell?”
His declaration was like music to
my ears. I had to do everything I could not to jump for joy. “And
I ’ m crazy about you.”
Kaleb dragged me into his arms and kissed me hard.
Lips, tongue, deep moans. I got it all.
“ C ’ mon. Let ’s get out
of here before we miss our balloon.”
I couldn’t possibly have heard him
right. “ Balloon? ”
Kaleb just winked and headed out the door.
We arrived at a small field south of town and within
minutes we were boarding a large red hot air balloon.
“ I ’ m so excited! I’ve never had a
man do anything like this for me.”
“ Hopefully this will be the first
of several new experiences.”
My cellphone vibrated in my pocket
and I reached inside then glanced down at the screen. It was Q.
He ’ d been texting all morning about
our weekend and I had yet to respond. Of course he would pick now
to decide to call. I quickly swiped Decline on my phone.
“ Is that your man calling
you?”
I groaned then pressed the button
silencing my ringer. “Nope, just my girl Janelle
