The sound of running water echoed from the bathroom Wendy was already showering
Stanleystoodbythe windowandsliditopen,lettingacoolbreezedriftinside,easingtheheatthatclungtohisbody.
Just thinking about Wendy s graceful mature figure stirred a fire deep inside him
Memories from three years ago when they were tangled in a desperate embrace flooded his mind making it impossible to hold back his feelings
He missed Wendy so badly more than he though the would
Soon the water stopped flowing Stanley closed the window just as the door opened and Wendy stepped out
Since she couldn t wear that lingerie Wendy had rummaged through the bathroom cabinet and pulled out one of Stanley s white dress shirts
The oversized shirt draped loosely over her petite graceful frame Her legs bare and slender stretched out beneath the shirt Her feet slipped into simple white slippers Her long dark hair cascaded down her back fresh from the shower
Shelookedlikearipe,lusciousfruit–tempting andimpossibletoresist.
NoticingStanley’sgazefixedonher,Wendyshothimasharplook.”Whatareyoustaringat?Keeplooking,andI’llgougeyour eyesout!”
Stanley slips curved into as lys mile Why so fierce
Wendyhuffed.”Youknow why!I’msleeping onthecouchtonight.”

Stanley came closer No you sleep in the bed I ll take the couch
Wendy shook her head This is your place I appreciate you letting me stay here tonight but I insist you sleep in your bed
Stanleychuckled.”Doyou reallythinkagentlemanlikemewouldletawomansleeponthecouch?”
Before she could react Stanley scooped her up carrying her horizontally in his arms
Wendy kicked her legs swinging back and forth in the air Put me down
Stanleysethergentlyonthebed.”Stopfighting.You’resleepingin the bed.”
Wendyhesitated.”But-
If you say one more word he warned we ll both sleep in the bed
They would both sleep in the bed Was he saying he wanted to share it with her
Wendy immediately lay down yanked the blanket over herself and said Then I ll make myself comfortable Enjoy the couch

Stanley reached out and pinched her cheek before turning and heading into the bathroom
Wendy lay on the bed soon hearing the steady rush of water again he was finally showering
She regretted her decision to sleep here tonight Who would have thought that after three years they would end up under the same roof again
Just then her phone buzzed with notifications from a chat group It was the Pretty Girl Squad chat group shared with Halsey and Cecelia
