“Listen, I warned you. You just need to check the app I put on your phone a couple times a day and let it go. You can’t watch her twenty-four/seven. Believe me, I’ve done the leg work on it. You’ll drive yourself insane.”
“Too late,” I say, looking back into the window. “I don’t like the app. I wasn’t close enough.”
“Dylan, where are you exactly?” Michael says, and I hear the threat in his voice.
“Just, you know, outside the window.”
“Oh god, you’re going to get the both of us in trouble,” he says, and then I hear his name being called.
“Saint? Are you hiding in the closet?”
“Fuck,” he whispers. “I had nothing to do with this. Get your ass out of there, Dylan,” he says, right before he hangs up on me.
I stuff my phone in my pocket and peek back into the window one more time. “Shit,” I mutter, seeing the room empty, and walk around the side of the building. When I look through another window there’s an older lady standing there with Emily.
I watch right before the older lady turns around and looks directly where I’m standing. I’m scared she might have seen me, and I can’t have Emily finding me lurking outside the window.
“Shit,” I say again, cursing the whole damn day.
Just then I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket. Thinking it’s the sitter I reach down and check it, only to see it’s Emily. My heartbeat picks up as I open the text, but it’s just happy faces and her saying she’ll be home earlier than she thought.
“Triple shit.” I say and haul ass to my truck. I’ve got to get back home before she does and get the sitter out of there.
I run as fast as I can to my truck and jump in it. I throw it in drive and hit the gas as I barrel down the road to our house. It’s not even a five-minute drive from our place to the library, so I’ve got to be quick.
When I get home, I jump out and grab some cash out of my wallet. I run inside and stuff it in the babysitter’s hand as I practically shove her out the door.
“Is everything okay?” she asks, and I just wave at her to leave.
“It’s fine. Thanks again. I’ll call if I need you tomorrow,” I say, urging her to get in her car and go.
“All right. Well, tell Miss Emily I said hey.”
Jesus, could she move any slower.
“Yeah, yeah, fine, bye,” I say, slamming the door and going back to the boys.
I glance out the window and make sure her car is gone before I start to calm down a little. The boys look at me like I’m crazy, but they’re not going to say a word. And just to make sure, I hand both of them a Popsicle.
I thank god above that the sitter got dinner started, and I’m draining the noodles just as Emily walks through the front door.
“Hey, Button, how was your day?” I ask, turning to smile at her.
She looks me up and down and then cocks her head to the side. “Why are you all sweaty? And why is there mud on your jeans?”
Chapter 5
Emily
I smile at the text Dylan just sent me and I feel myself blush. I think about what we did this morning. We’ve been together so long and he still makes me blush. I have no idea how, but that man always gets to me. My body is once again sore all over.
You’d think we were newlyweds with the way we’ve been going at it. He not only made love to me last night after we'd put the boys to bed, but again this morning. He had me pinned to the wall right before I was about to leave. I can still feel his cum inside me. He refused to let me go clean myself off. I like the idea of walking around smelling like him for the rest of the day, so I didn't put up much of a fight about it. I acted innocent, which I’m pretty sure he saw right through.
I redden all over again at the thought. I’ve been walking around all morning like this. Not that anyone would know.
“What has you blushing?”
I glance over at Nancy, who’s going over the papers I just gave her. We’ve got a shipment of books coming in that we need to make room for. I have a list of recommendations on the ones I think we could donate to find space.
She wiggles her dark eyebrows at me and I laugh. I like Nancy. She’s sweet and easy to talk to. She stands out at the library because she doesn't dress like any librarian I’ve ever seen. She looks like a pinup girl. She’s different and as much of a Potterhead as I am. In fact, I think she might have me beat.
