"Sure do. It was about six months ago." I laughed and patted her hip. "Jordan's having a party this weekend. We can go. I'm not working. Yet."

"I'll think about it." She yawned and flopped her arms beside us. "I'm starving."

Her declaration made me smile. "What are you in the mood for?"

"Burgers and fries. Big juicy ones." She licked her lips while thinking. "Chicken wings. Nachos."

"The works then." I laughed and patted her hip over the blanket.

"Mhmm. Spoil me?" She smiled when she asked, and I traced my finger over her cheek.

"Always, baby. Always."

"'Kay." She kissed my finger. "I'm gonna shower. And you'll order?"

"You gonna show me your tits first?" I kissed her quickly before she wriggled herself free.

"Yup." She grinned while unfastening the belt of her robe. It fluttered from her shoulders to pool on the floor at her feet.

"Delicious." I sat up, thumbing my bottom lip while eyeing her. "As always, Kitten."

"Are you sure you're going to make me wait?" she asked with a pout.

"Sure am." I wagged my brows at her and propped my ankle on my knee. "You writhe so much harder when I deny you for a day before satiating your needs."

She narrowed her eyes at me. "Maybe that's why I'm tired and cold and hungry."

I couldn't help the grin that made it to my lips while I stared at her adorably grumpy naked form in front of me. Like the fucking asshole that I was, I folded my arms behind my head and slouched in my chair. "And cranky."

"Your fault," she spat, then huffed. "I'm gonna shower."

"You do that, Kitten." I ran my teeth over my bottom lip. "While I plan my retaliation for your lip."

"Hmph." She scowled at me over her shoulder before stomping off…in the daintiest Nora kind of manner.

I stared at her beautiful ass, still ripe from yesterday's party, as she faded off down the hall.

There wasn't much time to dwell on Nora's cute tantrum before the front door opened, signaling the arrival of Samirah. She entered quietly, with her small duffle on her shoulder. I stood up to greet her and she bumped fists with me.

"Looking svelte tonight, Sami. What's got your tits so perky?"

"Nothing yet." She smiled and clapped me on the shoulder before setting down her bag. "Marley had to work a double. Not sure she'll make it."

"Boo."

"Tell me about it." A small frown curved her painted lips. "And to think I ditched the scrubs and everything."

"Well, you're still hot. We'll enjoy looking at you." I laughed and nodded toward the living room. "About to order burgers for dinner. What are you in the mood for?"

"Burgers. Fries. Nachos. All of it. Work fucking sucked today."

"You sound like Nora. What happened at work?" I snatched my phone off the arm of the sofa and began plugging in our order to the delivery app.

"One patient died during surgery. Another had an allergic reaction to the anesthesia. They survived, but it's more stress than I care to have."

"Do you have to deal with families in those cases?"

She nodded, folding her arms over her middle. "Hence the stress."
