Last night felt like a dream to me. Confessing my true feelings for Buck lifted a weight off my shoulders and I feel lighter. I feel free. It was like saying those words out loud were what I needed to do in order to feel genuinely happy again. For him to know that he has made me experience a feeling I can't explain and I want nothing more than to dive into it with him fully.
Waking up next to him this morning put the biggest smile on my face. The last time I woke up in his bed I was terrified to find myself near him only because I hadn't known just how much I would fall for this man but now I want to fall all the way in. It's a beautiful feeling. I brush my finger against his cheek careful not to wake him up. I bring my lips to his forehead and plant a small kiss before sneaking out of his bed, tip toeing down to the kitchen.
My "vacation" ends in five days before I can return to work. It is something I've been eagerly waiting for, maybe life will go back to normal. I've decided to spend my last days searching for a new apartment. With everything that has happened I can't bring myself to sleep in that place again. Gigi swears it's okay for me to stay as long as I need to and I'm thankful for that but I do need my own place. Buck has even told me I can stay with him. He pouted like a baby until I finally agreed to spend my last five days with him.
"Eggs... cheese... that's it?" I whisper to myself. Does Evan not eat breakfast? I woke up craving waffles.
"I was hoping you wouldn't wake up before me" Buck's voice makes me jump. He's standing by the stairs shirtless, his perfectly physique on display for me as he throws on a black t-shirt. "My plan was to take you out for breakfast. I haven't done any grocery shopping" he says. I nod in agreement.
"We could go shopping and I'll cook us something" I offer but he kindly rejects.
"I want to take you out for breakfast" he comes up behind me slowly placing his hands on my waist, his chin resting gently on my head. The chills make me shiver. His lips press against my cheek as he wraps his arms around me, my hands intertwine with his as I enjoy his body against mine.
"So go get dressed that way I can treat my girl" his mouth close to my ear now. I turn to face him and grab his face in my hands, pressing my mouth against his.
"Mmm" he says as we kiss. "I honestly could have you for breakfast" I shove his shoulder in a playful way as I walk away from him, making my way upstairs.
"You'll have to wait this time" I tell him. "Anything for you Moore" He responds and I don't need to be turned around to know he's smiling, as am I as I enter the bathroom. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have him join me but this time around I do want to take things slow with him. This time I want to do everything right with him.
********* "Eddie called and he said Christopher would really much rather hang out with us today! Is that okay with you?" Buck is pulling into a small parking lot outside a cute cafe shop. I've grown to love the boy in such a short amount of time.
