to do with you and have you do with me. Unless you feel differently? Have you had enough of me?”
Her head shook against mine. “Definitely not.”
“Then we feel the same way.” I took a deep breath to control the baser urges flowing through me with having her so close by. Then I took a step back to put some much-needed distance between us. “But in the meantime, how would you guys like to do something this weekend?”
When I looked at her, a light flush covered her cheeks and her lips were parted. Fuck, that’s sexy.
It was good to know I wasn’t the only one so affected but the knowledge made it that much more difficult not to drag her off somewhere for a quickie.
She rolled her lips into her mouth, closed her eyes, and took a breath before nodding. “Adi hasn’t spent much time doing anything fun after the accident. I’m sure she’ll enjoy it.”
“I figured that might be the case. I’ll make sure we do nothing that involves a motorcycle.”
April rolled her eyes at me. “If you tried to even show me one of those things right now, the owner had better be okay with it getting taken apart piece by piece and having some panel beating done to it.”
“I could bring a hammer and we could hit up a junkyard?” I suggested, sort of joking but also not really. “We could go fuck up some motorcycles if it’d make you feel better?”
“You’d do that for me?” Her head pulled back as she gazed up at me. “Without judging me, of course?”
“I’d be right there with you.” All I had to do was think about that day Adi came in and I was ready to tear every motorcycle I could find apart with my bare hands to ensure something like that—or worse—never happened to another kid. “Without any judgment. Don’t worry.”
A slow smile appeared on her lips. “Maybe I’ll take you up on that sometime. Let’s stay away from anything motorcycle or biker related this weekend, shall we?”
“We shall.” I took her hand and gave it a soft squeeze before jerking my head toward Hunter. “I’d better go step in before he undoes all the good work I’ve done with her.”
She fell into step beside me and bumped her shoulder into my arm. “Really? All the good work you’ve done? He’s helped a lot and you know it.”
I exhaled heavily, rubbing the back of my neck. “Fine, if you insist on diminishing my role here, I think we should stop therapy. That way, you’d be around all the time and you’d see how good I really am.”
“If I have to stalk you in order to see how good you are, you can’t be very good at all,” she teased. “I also don’t know why you’d want me around all the time. If I was, I’d look for every opportunity to distract you.”
“Really?” I smirked and arched a brow at her. “Tell me more about these distractions. What would I have to look forward to?”
“Well.” She twirled a lock of hair around her finger, pushing up on her toes to whisper since we were now too close to the others. “I could tell you about all those things I still want to do to you.”
I groaned. “That’s not fair.”
“How?” She laughed. “It’s fair when you say stuff like that, but not when I do?”
“Not when you say it when we’re about to join your daughter and my best friend for therapy.” I willed my brain to scrub those words clean before my cock could react.
April laughed again and looked like she was about to say something else when Adi spotted us walking over to them.
“Come look, Mom. I did it.”
Her words did the job my willpower hadn’t been able to achieve when I noticed what she was talking about. I got down on my knees beside her and held out my hand. “Let me see something real quick. Give me your arm.”
She did as I asked, and this time when I told her to hold it, it stayed. A wide grin formed on my lips as I held up my palm for a high-five. “This is excellent progress. I wasn’t expecting that for at least another week or so.”
April gave her the most radiant smile I’d seen from her yet. It was so open and unguarded that it made me want to take a picture just so I could see it again.
