“It was making you happy to buy those things
for the kids. I wanted a piece of your happiness. I was fine with that. I wasn’t having to worry that my mother’s feelings would be hurt when she called the store to check on the price of her gift and found out my father’s cost ten bucks more.”
“Nick?”
“I’m serious, Sela.”
“Poor, baby.”
“Are you saying you pity me?”
“No.” Sela reached for his hand. “I’m saying you have no idea of your worth and I’m going to show you.” When he grinned at her she went on tiptoe but was caught up in his arms.
“You’re not ticked anymore?”
“Not anymore,” Sela answered waiting for his lips to close over hers. “Why don’t we go back to the hotel and finish this conversation there?”
A grin met her for an answer. Then a butterfly soft kiss landed on her lips and an explosion began in her nether regions. Her heart had long abandoned its steady thumping and was marching double time. This man was doing something to her, and thank God she didn’t have a plane to catch. She was falling in love.
