Homecoming

Chapter 14

He was extremely successful last night. Max overcame, he was incredibly nice and attentive. He ordered two pizzas, one for the boys with ham and for me with mozzarella, which I shared with him anyway. We ate outside on the terrace, where a nice breeze blew and the overall atmosphere was completed by the chirping of birds and the chirping of crickets in the nearby bushes.

The children fell asleep early, about nine o'clock, which I wasn't surprised at all. Although they slept a little over lunch, they were still tired after a sleepless night. Garrett dropped out first, and Max later carried him to bed on his hands, but Jared lay alone. I kissed them both goodnight and then went back to the terrace.

While I was in the boys' room, Max opened a bottle of red wine for us. It was well chilled and tasted divine. We sat quietly and drank. His presence made me a little nervous and I didn't know what to talk to him about. It was basically the first time I've been alone with him for so long. I didn't have any boys there to save me from talking to him or throwing topics at him.

Max later challenged me to swim with him in the pool, which I vehemently refused. When he tried to excuse me for not having a swimsuit, he just laughed out loud. Apparently it's so dark that we don't need absolutely anything to swim. He may not have had a problem bathing completely naked, but I did. Just at the thought, I was flooded with red, so I quickly settled down to fatigue and ran to the safety of the house, accompanied by Max's loud laughter from the terrace.

During the night, I checked Garrett a few times to see if his temperature had risen, but fortunately not. The night was good and he slept like an adorable little angel. I'm relieved.

In the morning, I took a quick shower and adjusted my naughty hair, which stood in all directions. I finally gave up and pulled them into a braid. I adjusted the bed in which I slept and went downstairs to the kitchen.

"Wow," I said dryly. "You really want to impress me."

There wasn't much missing and Max would have jumped a meter into the air. "Kristepan, can't you move a little louder?"

"No," I smiled broadly at him. "What am I an elephant?" And in general, "I pointed at him," what did you think of moving around the house in Adam's robes? "

"I hugged," he replied, but his serious expression lasted only a second before he began to smirk. "But I still have shorts on. Do you want to see them? "

"Certainly not," I raised an eyebrow, but Max came out from behind the bar.

It was only inches from me. My eyes slid to the hard, flat muscles in his chest, to the elaborate grid on his abdomen, and to the narrow hips.

So close up and in better light, I saw that he has clean and slightly shiny skin. About how you ran in the morning.

"You look like you want to have me for breakfast," he said confidently. When our eyes met, I felt my cheeks turn red. This has happened to me quite often in his presence lately.

"Not at all," I gasped.

Hell, if it wasn't so rugged, I wouldn't have made a total fool of myself. And he wouldn't have to run half-naked around the house either. At least one would not forget a good upbringing.

"Would you like to wash my back?" out of nowhere he asked me.

"No," I rolled my eyes even bigger at him and backed him a few steps.

He jerked the corner of his mouth. "If you change your mind, you know where to find me," he replied, walking away.

I watched with my mouth wide as his athletic body disappeared up the stairs. At every step, all his tendons and muscles in his thighs and calves stretched. The guy wasn't wearing a gram of fat.
