“Oh my God! Oh. My.God. I’m sorry!” Sophia said as she turned one way, then another. Then she spun around and opened her fingers to see where she was, looking again at me.
“Soph, I’m so sorry. I didn’t know you were going to come into the room, and I just woke up and—”
She dropped her hands to her sides, and her face was beet red. “Please don’t apologize, Josh. I barged into the room as if I owned it. I wasn’t sure where you were, and when I woke up in your room, basically on top of the covers, I figured you must’ve slept somewhere else. I called out your name and…”
I pulled my T-shirt over my head and willed my dick to go down. “You fell asleep in my arms and my room was the closest. I came in here to sleep.”
A look of surprise crossed her face, and I swore I saw disappointment in her eyes for a second. What was that about?
Her gaze fell to my midsection as she asked, “You sleep naked?”
I tried to hide my smile as she kept staring. “I do. And I’m sorry about the situation down there.”
Her eyes snapped up, and there went the blush again. Her hands went to her cheeks. “Oh my God, I was staring. Oh, God!”
She spun around and fled so fast, I thought she’d trip over her own feet.
“Sophia!” I called out.
“I’m so embarrassed. Oh my God…I saw you, and I…I…”
Catching up to her, I grabbed her arm to stop her. “Hey,” I said with a laugh. “You didn’t know.”
She covered her face. “I was cock-gazing!”
I sputtered out another laugh. “I’m sorry…what?”
Her face was still covered with her hands, and she was mumbling something about wanting to crawl under a rock.
I reached for her hands, lowered them, and bent slightly to look into her eyes. “Hey, it’sokay.”
She chewed nervously on her lower lip.
“It’s okay, alright?”
Nodding, she looked down, then quickly back up—and I couldn’t help but laugh again.
Grinning, I said, “Let’s just forget it, okay?”
Another nod.
“Can you form words?”
She shook her head.
Laughing harder, I asked, “Why?”
“Well, first I was staring, and then I admitted to staring, and then I…I…I…”
“You?”
“Do you know how…um…fityou are?”
It was my turn to blush. “Well, I work out a lot, and working on the ranch helps with that.”
“It shows. Abs…for days…and…if you looked up that little V thing women talk about, your picture would be next to it, not to mention you’re…”She closed her eyes and whispered, “Shut up, Sophia.”
“Well,nowI want to know what you were going to say. I’m what?”
