Chapter Fifteen

Eleanor's POV

"Are you sure you and your boys don't want to come?" Parker asked for the umpteenth time that evening. He was standing by the doorway of our home about to leave for China is his private aircraft. Hey, if he owned an airline, it was reasonable he'd have his own private jet.

I nodded rolling my eyes walking closer to him. "Yes, Parker. The boys, and I will be fine here." He looked at me one last time before lowering his head to my level. His face lingered just a centimeter away from mine, teasing me. "Are you going to kiss me?"

"I just want you to know how badly you'll miss me if you don't come," Parker replied in the deep baritone voice of his. 

Impatiently, I made the first move and placed both of my hands on his cheeks pulling his head down; our lips finally connected. I kissed him opening my mouth instantly, deepening the kiss right away. My hands had minds of their own as they moved up the back of his neck and into his soft locks. I felt Parker's thumb rub against the visible skin on my waist where my shirt rose up from leaning up to kiss him. Parker growled against my mouth pulling away and leaning our foreheads against each other. His eyes were closed, breathing heavily. 

"If we don't stop now," he said in a sexy, husky tone of voice, "I might just decide not to go after all. Not without you anyways."

I grinned, superior at having him around my finger. I pushed him away gently giving him one last kiss. "Go on. Don't want to keep your pilot waiting."

"Tell the boys goodbye for me," he told me opening the door stepping out into the crisp, cool morning air. Since it was still early in the morning, my boys weren't awake yet. "I'll call you tonight."

"I will," I nodded and waved bye to him. I only closed the door when the limo pulled away out of my sight. I closed the door gently behind me and walked into the rest of the house. 

Parker was supposed to be gone for at least five days; it depended on the amount of work he had to get done over in China. This was going to be the first time he would be away for so long. I already knew that if I married Parker, he would be gone constantly as a businessman. That was actually one of the reasons I decided to marry him; I wouldn't have to put up with him all the time. Although now that things changed... I didn't want to be away from him.

Pulling the fluffy robe tightly over me, I cleared my head of any thoughts. I had raised my two sons without any help of their father; I shouldn't have a reason to start depending on Parker now. I checked for the time on the fancy grandfather clock located in the formal living room. Summer and I were going to get together this morning shopping for dresses for her wedding. I only had about a few hours to get ready.

Charlotte, the usual babysitter Parker and I would hire, agreed to watch over my sons for the whole day. They were only going to be a nuisance when we go shopping; Peyton especially gets agitated. I woke my boys up early, so they would be ready for when the babysitter comes in.

"Parker gone?" Luke asked sadly sitting up on his bed, rubbing his eyes. I nodded kissing him on the forehead. "I didn't say bye."

"He told me to give you his farewell," I told him stroking his messy hair. "He left very early, my angel. He'll be back in a few days time." My son nodded understandingly. "Charlotte will be coming in today. Your Aunt Summer and I will be together."

"Yay! I like Charlotte."

I took his hand in mine, tugging him to his feet. "Come on. Time to get ready so you're freshly showered when she comes in. You don't want to be stinky do you?" I playfully smelled his armpits and made a stink face. Luke laughed bringing his arms down.
