"Just a hug, Kelly-baby?"  He whispered the words, his lips quirking gently.  "I dream of your hugs, darlin', just as much as I dream of your kiss."

"It's real easy, baby," he crooned, his dark velvet voice washing over her.  "You just lift your arms and put them around my neck."

He let go of her hair, fingers curling around her wrists as he lifted her arms, urging them up until they curled around his neck. 

"Then you come up real close to me, so I can hug you back." 

His arms went around her, slowly, so slowly, pulling her against him until her head rested on his chest.



Yummy......i'd take one of those hugs for sure !!!

Not bothering to touch his luggage this morning,
she deserted him and made her way to the cockpit.
Behind her, the cargo doors shut and seconds later,
Grady slipped into the seat next to hers. A wave of
déjà vu hit. Hadn’t they already played this game
before? Uncomfortable silence. Awkward attempts at
conversation. Stolen glances.
