“Not quite. There’s one more thing we haven’t discussed. Something we need to discuss and then we’ll have everything out in the open between us.”
“I’m ready.”
He sucked in a breath. “Okay, Whitney, I don’t have to tell you that we’re attracted to each other.”
That was the last thing she’d expected him to say. Rather than sit on the couch as he’d indicated, she took a step back toward the door. “And?”
“And I know I told you that I wouldn’t kiss you again, but I’ve changed my mind. I now think we should do something about this thing between us.”
Looking at his full lips, the gleam in his dark eyes, she felt a longing that she hadn’t felt in years. Oh, she was tempted, but she’d already worked all this out in her head and decided it was trouble. She laughed nervously and, as casually as possible, took another two steps back. “I’m not ready for a committed relationship.”
Unfortunately, he came out from behind the bar and easily caught up with her. He stepped close, toyed with a strand of her hair. “Who says that’s what I want?”
Her breath froze in her lungs. Temptation rose up like the morning sun, bright and full of promise. But they weren’t the only two people in this equation.
“Have you forgotten, we’re parents … raising a child together for the next eighteen years?”
“We’re also mature adults who understand ourselves.
You were hurt, nearly destroyed by a man you trusted. I had a father who couldn’t remain faithful if he tried. I saw how he hurt my mom. I won’t hurt a woman that way.”
“And you think having affairs doesn’t leave women hurt?”
“Not if you go into the relationship knowing the score. You said yourself Missy was fine with what she had with my dad.”
“I know but—” Though that was true, she hadn’t meant it in the context he’d taken it. “That’s different.”
