Dee made it just in time to take out her pie from the oven with the last bit of cooking wrapping up, Iris and Dee pushed me out of my kitchen. “Go play with the boys.” Dee said as she pushed Dev out after me. Rosie had arrived as well as Carla and were helping out. Dev’s bandmates were sliding down the stairs on cardboard … Continue reading First Family Dinner (Family)
Our kiss ended with both of us breathless and grinning maddly at each other. Dev was an amazing kisser. Not that Sage or Dee were bad, but Dev was just Dev. Dev pressed a kiss to my cheek. “I wish you wouldn’t keep me out.” I sighed. “I’m trying. I don’t want to drown you.” “I’ll be fine.” He said. “I miss you.” I gave … Continue reading First Family Dinner (Unexpected Family)
Early the next morning I was up went for a run and had a shower before starting breakfast when there was a knock at the door.

If the guys didn’t eat it. … Continue reading Guardian Angel
By the time I walked back home it was late. The lights in the house were all off and the basement door was locked. Sage had already gone to bed. It was colder now. The moon was hidden behind the clouds, it might snow soon. I could feel it. But I didn’t go inside. I sat down in front of Sage’s house on the stoop … Continue reading Not Exactly as Planned (Back Home)
Dee told me all about how she and Dev met. They’d been in highschool together, but they didn’t know each other. It wasn’t until nursing school that she met him. He was playing a club with the guys and they hooked up. It wasn’t anything spectacular Dee said. But she went back another night and it kept happening. She felt more things with Dev than … Continue reading Not Exactly as Planned (Falling Apart)
