“Then we’re doing this.”
Gemma’s hands sink into my hair, tilting my head back to gaze into her eyes. There’s no hesitation. They have the confidence of a woman who knows exactly what she wants.
Me.
“Then we’re doing this.”
A sly smile paints her face. “Should we shake on it?”
Standing, I take her in my arms and spread her out on the table.
“Oh, I have a much better idea than that.”
ChapterFifteen
GEMMA
“Why are we shopping again?” I flip through another rack in Layla’s store.
“Because, I need a cute top for a date tonight.” Ivy pulls out a light pink top, holds it up to her, then puts it back.
“And who is this date with? Why haven’t I heard about it before now?”
Ivy rolls her eyes. “I’m telling you now. And I like this guy, so I didn’t want to jinx it.”
“Do I know him?”
“What did I just tell you?” Ivy turns her amber eyes on me.
“Sorry.”
Ivy grabs a few shirts from a table, adding them to the growing pile of lingerie and jeans in her arms, before grabbing my hand and leading me to the back of the store. The dressing rooms are nothing short of fabulous.
Oversized pink chairs line one wall while a three-way mirror sits next to them. An old chandelier hangs from the ceiling, and two large dressing rooms take up the rest of the space.
It’s everything you would want when trying on clothes.
“Where are you two going tonight?”
“I don’t know yet.”
“Then how do you know what you should be getting?”
“Your logic has no place here, Gem.” Ivy brushes off my question as she pulls me into the dressing room behind her.
“Right.”
Ivy doesn’t see my smile as she yanks her top over her head.
“How are things going with that writer boy of yours?”
“They’re going just fine.”
“Fine?” Ivy throws her hands down, stuck in the confines of her top. Her eyes meet mine in the mirror. “That storm would have been the perfect opportunity to wander over to Blake’s cabin and ‘snuggle.’”
This time, Ivy doesn’t miss my face.
“What was that?”
