Blank Space

Chapter 27

Callie sighed pulling into the driveway of her condo. There was still so much to be done, but all she wanted to do was crawl into her bed and sleep. The POD she had rented for what little furniture was her’s and the big stuff, like her TV, that she wasn’t taking in her car was parked in her driveway off to the side.

“This is nice,” Blake said as Callie pulling into the garage. 

“Thanks. I liked it,” Callie shrugged closing the garage door before they got out. “The neighbors are kinda nosey,”

“Good to know,” Blake laughed. “What all did you get done?”

“Well I was in California when I made the decision to move, so not much. I did kinda start going through stuff before I left,” Callie said opening the door. She was met with Corbin who was meowing rather loudly. 

“I bet Paige hasn’t been by yet,” Callie said bending down and picking up the gray and white fur ball. 

“He’s cute,” Blake said reaching over and rubbing the top of his head. 

“This is Corbin,” Callie said passing the cat over to him. 

Blake took him and cuddled him while Callie grabbed his food and filled his dish before grabbing his water dish and refilling it as well.

“So we have to pack everything?” Blake asked looking around. 

“Yeah. I don’t have a whole lot. There’s just basic stuff in the kitchen. Aside from that and living room there’s just the bedroom and bathroom to pack,” Callie explained. “Want a tour?”

“Sure,” Blake nodded. 

Callie took him around showing him the condo. She saved the bedroom for last and  collapsed face down on the bed.

“We have a lot of work to do,” Blake laughed leaning down and setting Corbin on the ground before walking over and sitting on the edge of the bed. 

“I know and thinking about it is making me tired,” Callie sighed. 

“Then maybe you should’ve slept on the plane,” Blake said giving her a knowing glance as he reached over and rubbed her back.

“That’s really gonna put me to sleep,” Callie sighed as Blake’s big hands moved up and down her back. 

“I know something else that would put you to sleep,” Blake said leaning down so his lips were right by her ear. 

Callie’s eyes shot open and she sat up looking wide eyed at Blake who was laughing. 

“If we don’t have time to sleep we definitely don’t have time for that,” Callie said getting off the bed. “Are you coming?” She asked stopping at the doorway and turning around to look at him.

“No, but I could be if you were still laying here,” Blake smirked at her. 

“Oh my hell,” Callie said turning and walking out as Blake’s laughter filled the room.
