After a couple of days, she couldn’t take it anymore. She knew Tate was coming home in four days but she couldn’t wait that long. It was crazy how much she wanted to be with him all the time. She didn’t know if it was because he was gone and she couldn’t be with him or because she generally loved being around him. She felt it was the latter though. There was something about the way he held her, and talked to her. It was different over the phone and she missed the feel of his big warm hands on her. She was really ready for hockey season to be over, but she knew that was a good five to six months away.
Thankfully, she didn’t care about her job or have anyone needing her home all the time because if she did these impromptu trips wouldn’t happen. Glancing down at her phone, and making sure that Tate would be done with practice, she dialed his number.
“Hey,” he answered.
“Hey baby, I got good news!”
Tate chuckled as Audrey moved around her closet, looking for her favorite pair of Jimmy Choo heels. She wanted to look good when she saw him, but she had to run to the office to meet with Fallon, so she had to wear something appropriate for the office. “What’s that, love?”
“I am coming to see you.”
“Really? When?”
“Tonight, I’ll be there for the game.”
“That is awesome! I can’t wait to see you.”
Audrey smiled as she grabbed the shoes she was looking for, “I can’t wait to see you, that’s why I’m coming up there. I’m impatient as all hell.”
Tate’s chuckles went straight between her legs, causing Audrey’s eyes to slowly drift shut.
Man, she wanted him.
“I like that you are impatient. When will you be here?”
“I won’t see you until after the game; the earliest flight put me there at 6:30.”
“Okay, did you get a room already?”
“Yup, I’ll text you the information.”
“Cool, what about work tomorrow?”
Audrey shrugged her shoulders, “I’m good.”
“I don’t understand how you get away with never going.”
“Me neither, I keep hoping my dad will fire me. It hasn’t worked yet,” Audrey said with a laugh, going downstairs with her overnight bag in hand.
“Baby, why don’t you quit? “
“And do what?” she giggled, “be a hockey groupie, following you everywhere?”
Tate laughed, “No, I was thinking more along the lines of opening that…you know.”
“What?” she said, trying to make him say it. She loved the way he said ‘cupcakery’, it was so cute.
“You are messing with me, aren’t you?”
Audrey giggled as she locked her door, “Yes, but no, as much as I want to open my own place, I don’t have the balls to do it.”
“Yes, you do, I believe in you.”
Her heart warmed as she loaded up her car’s backseat with the stuff she was carrying. “Well thank you. Maybe I’ll get fired soon.”
“You are very hardheaded, you know that?”
“Yup,” she giggled getting into her car.
“So,” he said in a low, sexy voice, stopping her giggling. She loved when he talked like that. It was his ‘I’m gonna rip you apart’ voice, and Audrey enjoyed it very much.
“So,” she cooed back.
“What color are you panties?”
Audrey giggled, pulling her pants out to see her bright blue lace panties that matched her tank. “Blue.”
“Mmm,” he growled, “I can’t wait to rip them off you.”
Breathless, Audrey gasped, fighting for air. This man did it for her in so many ways. With her hand on her chest, she said, “Oh my God, you are making my girlie parts happy.”
Tate started laughing, ruining their flirty conversation by saying, “Your what?!”
Audrey rolled her eyes, she was pretty sure she had used that phrase around him before, “My girlie parts, my cooter.”
“Oh, well, baby,” his voice going deep again.
Biting her lip, she said, “Yeah?”
“I’m going to make those girlie parts scream.”
Yup, right back to where they started.
“Mm, I can’t wait.”
“Me neither,” he said making her toes curl, “But unfortunately, I need to go. I have lunch with the boys.”
“Wow, thanks! Get me all hot bothered and then rush me off the phone.”
He chuckled, as she rolled her eyes, “Don’t worry love, I will take care of you when you get here.”
“You better,” she said through his chuckles, “Alright, see you soon!”
“Can’t wait.”
Audrey’s grin was unstoppable as she drove to Rocky Top Wines. It was going to be a quick meeting and she was ready to get it over with. She was ready to get to Boston, so she could see Tate play. He was amazing in goal, and she was beyond ready to watch him win. She was also excited about getting naked too.
But really? Who wouldn’t be?
Parking her car, she grabbed her files and headed inside. Taking a different elevator than she normally would, Audrey headed up to the second floor, and down the hall to Fallon’s office. Rob, her assistant, stood with an appreciative look on his face as he watched Audrey walk towards him. Of course, Rob was dressed to impress. He wore dark blue slacks, a white dress shirt and pink suspenders. His dark hair was brushed to the side and he had big geeky black glasses on. He was too cute for words.
