Chapter 62: Short Skirt and Long Jacket

Short Skirt/Long Jacket - Cake

Mina POV

-----

A few days had gone by since Chibs had his incident. He was slowly getting better if better meant speaking to me in complete sentences and starting to joke around again. But, emotionally, he wasn't all there.

Saturday morning, I woke up to an empty bed. Chibs had to get some work done at TM and had to leave early. I grabbed my phone and texted him: Good morning! How's it going? You ready for today?

I stood up and threw clothes on. I picked up our clothes from the night before. My phone buzzed and I dropped the clothes in the hamper.

He replied: Morning love. I'm as ready as I'll ever be. I could barely sleep last night

I wrote back: Why? Nightmares again?

Walking into the kitchen, I tripped over my cat and she ran back to her hiding place in my closet.

Chibs responded: No, just nervous

I smiled: Aww, poor baby

I started straightening up the house. Since Chibs got back, everything fell apart and I was slacking on cleaning.

The front door opened and he walked in. I enjoyed it when he worked when he wore his Teller-Morrow shirt with the ripped-off sleeves and the blue bandanna to keep his hair off his face.

He walked past me and went to the bathroom. I heard the shower start up. I followed him in and picked up the clothes he dropped from the floor I just cleaned.

I went back in and asked, "What're you doing home so early?"

He scoffed, "Ya mad I'm early?"

"No," I chuckled, "Just curious."

"I can't go to my old lady's father's house lookin' a mess." I laughed and jumped up on the counter. "What time d'ya wanna leave?"

I shrugged, "We can leave whenever. He said he wants to eat around noon and it's almost ten."

The shower shut off and he flung the curtain open. "A'right," he sighed, accepting the towel I was handing him.

"You sure you're up for it, babe?"

" 'Course," he smiled walking into the bedroom. 

I followed him in starting to get ready myself. Peeling off my clothes I just put on, I turned towards Chibs. He was standing over by the dresser, biting his lip.

"What?" I chuckled, turning back to my clothes on the bed. I heard him step closer and I sighed, "Oh no."

"Oh aye," he laughed.

He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me down onto the bed. I was sitting on his lap with my back against his chest. Starting by my ear, he kissed down to the nape of my neck.

"We don't have time," I laughed. He bit my shoulder. "Ow!" I giggled.

"We have plenty of time," grumbled in my neck.

He rolled me over so I was on my stomach leaning over the bed. I felt his hand on my ass cheek creep to my thigh as he pulled me closer to him. I could feel how hard he was already.

I chuckled, "Chibs, we really don't have time." 

I tried to stand up, but he wrapped his arms around me, hunching his back over me. He kissed my shoulder blade and whispered in my ear.
