"What are we gonna do today?" Ezra asks."Do you have time to go grocery shopping?" I ask him."Sure." Ezra replies. "You pick out anything that you want and I'll pay.""Okay." I tell him. "Come on."I guide him through the kitchen and I point him in the direction of the pantry and then I watch as he grabs several bags of groceries and then he disappears into the hallway. He returns a few moments later and I follow after him as he leads me to his car. After buckling up, Ezra gets behind the wheel and then he backs out of the parking lot and then we drive to the grocery store. Once we arrive, I park the car in a parking spot. After leaving my purse on the seat beside me, we both get out and then we start walking down the aisle."Is there anything you need?" Ezra asks me."Yeah, I think there should be a package of peanut butter here." I reply, glancing around the aisles."Ok." Ezra says, nodding his head. "Which one do you want?""Umm...that one." I respond, pointing to the package
"Are you okay?" Ezra asks me."Yeah…" I mutter. "It's just weird being without you."Ezra sighs softly and then he drops his hand from my cheek. I drop my fork onto my plate and then I take Ezra's hand in mine, squeezing his fingers lightly. I lean forward slightly and then I rest my forehead against Ezra's. Ezra wraps his arms around me tightly and then he buries his face in my hair. For a long minute or two, neither of us say anything. I close my eyes and I wish that time could stop and that nothing would ever change. I wish that everything between us could stay exactly like it is and forever. "Let's go swimming later," Ezra murmurs softly."Okay." I murmur."Maybe after lunch." Ezra adds."Sounds good." I say.I open my eyes and then Ezra looks up at me."You sure you're ok?" Ezra asks."Yeah." I say. "Yes. Just tired.""Alright." Ezra replies. "Get dressed and I'll finish breakfast."After we've eaten breakfast, Ezra takes me to his office and then we sit down. There's an empty
I start walking toward Ezra and then I stand right behind him and I place my hands on his shoulders. Ezra leans his head backwards a little and then he closes his eyes."What are we doing today?" Ezra asks me."Uh…" I reply. "Nothing much…"I trail off and then suddenly, Ezra turns around and he grabs my hips and then he pushes me onto the couch. Ezra crawls up on top of me and then he straddles my hips. Ezra leans in closer and then he gently kisses me. As usual, Ezra is gentle with me. He makes sure not to hurt me and he doesn't take advantage of me. I wrap my hands around Ezra's neck and Ezra slides his hands underneath my dress. I pull away from Ezra, resting my head on the sofa and then I exhale. Suddenly, I remember that we haven't talked about the past few weeks. I don't know why I hadn't thought about it before but I guess that's because it hasn't come up. Ezra pulls away from me and I notice how he's breathing heavily and he quickly runs his hand through his hair."Sorry.
"Can you believe we have been working for ten hours straight already?" Ezra asks me."Yeah." I say. "It feels like it took forever.""So…what do you wanna do?" Ezra asks."Honestly? I don't even care anymore." I answer. "I just want to go home.""Me too." Ezra agrees. "Come on, let's go."And then I nod my head. Ezra stands up from the couch and he holds his hand out for me to grab. I grab onto Ezra's hand and then we walk out of the house. There are two police cars parked outside the house and then Ezra leads me over to one of the cars. The first thing I do when Ezra helps me into the car is unbuckle my seatbelt. Ezra sits down next to me and then he starts the car. Once we've started driving, Ezra takes a quick glance over at me."How was work?" I ask him."Pretty normal." Ezra answers. "How was yours?""Good." I reply. "Really good.""Anything interesting happen?" Ezra asks me.I look over at him and then I shake my head."No." I reply.I feel Ezra's fingers gently rub against
A few minutes later, I hear footsteps coming across the living room, making their way over to my bedroom door. As soon as they stop, I hear the bathroom door open and then I hear Ezra walking out."Hey." Ezra greets me."Hi." I reply. "Didn't mean to fall asleep on your couch last night.""It's okay." Ezra says. "I didn't mind."Ezra reaches forward and then he grabs hold of my hand. Ezra pulls me along with him into the hallway. Then he opens my bedroom door."Let's get you ready for bed now." Ezra suggests."Okay." I reply.I give Ezra a small smile before I follow after him. Ezra walks into my bathroom and then he turns around and he faces me. Ezra leans against the wall and he watches me."What did I miss while I slept?" I ask him."Nothing much." Ezra replies. "We just talked a little bit."I furrow my brows together."Really?" I ask him."Yeah." Ezra says. "You know we had an entire discussion about your father and everything. How does that sound?""That sounds amazing." I say
"It doesn't matter." Ezra replies. "I still enjoy watching you eat."I smile. I pick up my spoon and then I stir the soup in my bowl. I bring the spoon to my mouth and then I take a sip of my soup. II swallow my food and then I wipe some cream off the corner of my mouth. I set the spoon down onto my plate and then I lean my elbows onto the table and then I place my chin upon my palm. I stare at Ezra for a moment. Ezra looks up at me. He smiles at me."Is there something on your mind?" Ezra asks me."Not really." I reply."Good." Ezra says."Why are you asking me if there is anything on my mind?" I ask Ezra."Because you've been sitting here with your head resting against your palm and staring at me all day." Ezra says."That's because I'm thinking about something." I tell him."About what?" Ezra asks me."I honestly don't know yet." I say."Do you want to talk about it?" Ezra asks me.I close my eyes briefly."Maybe tomorrow." I say."Tomorrow it is." Ezra replies.Ezra pushes himse
Ezra slowly leans in and then he presses his lips against mine. We kiss passionately for several minutes. Ezra breaks the kiss. He pulls his arm from under my waist and then he pushes himself up on his elbows. Ezra smiles. He brushes his lips against mine again and then he places his forehead against mine."I am glad to see that we're okay." I murmur."Me too." Ezra replies.Then I kiss him. Ezra puts his hand back beneath my blouse and then he traces his fingertips over my stomach. Ezra's fingers trail down and then his hand slips underneath my blouse. When Ezra's hand touches my stomach, my hands begin to tremble. I lean forward and then I press my lips against Ezra's. My hands slide up Ezra' chest and then I grip the back of Ezra's shirt with my hands. Ezra places his hands on the sides of my face and then I feel Ezra's thumbs brush across my cheeks. A soft moan leaves my throat. Ezra kisses me. His right hand slides across my stomach and then he rests it against my belly butt
I quickly follow behind him. Ezra places my hand on his arm and then I gently squeeze his arm. Ezra looks back at me. Ezra's eyebrows furrow together. I gently pull him closer to me. I rest my head against his shoulder and then I hug Ezra tightly. Ezra brings his other hand up and he holds the back of my head. I slowly pull away from Ezra. I place my hand against Ezra's chest. I feel Ezra's heart beat against my palm. I stare at Ezra's green eyes which I haven't noticed until now. I place my hand on Ezra's cheek and then I stroke my thumb along Ezra's cheekbone. Ezra places his hand against the back of my hand. I tilt my head and then I press my lips against Ezra's. I can taste the minty toothpaste that Ezra uses. My tongue dances with Ezra's as our tongues dance together. Ezra gently bites my bottom lip. I can feel that Ezra is smiling. Ezra pulls away from me."Let's eat something shall we?" Ezra suggests."Yeah, that sounds nice." I reply.Ezra and I walk out of the bathroom t
