Chrissie laid the chemise on the table and avoided his gaze. She was getting comfortable around him, and she wasn't sure if she wanted that just yet. He might start taking advantage of her, if she did.

Okay, so the guy had taste. Of all the choices in Victoria's Secret, Chrissie would have probably picked out that nightgown herself...but don't tell her mother that. The blue satin that made up the body of the slip-like nightie was a shocking hue, yet still elegant and sophisticated. The c

  • Untold Love   Chapter 32

    On the way home, they stopped at Best Buy to purchase in-wall speakers for her new stereo system and many other counterparts that Chrissie couldn’t put a name to. She might own her own interior design business, but any type of electronic addition for a client was taken care of by the proper professionals. Back at the house, they continued their playful bantering and easy-going teasing while hauling in her new cabinet, but Chrissie started to get more and more nervous.She was in love with this man...after only two weeks! And she didn’t know what to do next. Sex? A more intense make-out session, picking up where they left off from that morning? Or just a cozy, romantic dinner...without Dena?Or start with the dinner and see what happens?Heavens! She could barely focus on anything all day, and Race started to notice. He caught her watching him, and he actually took a daring step toward her before shaking his head and wandering off to the basement. Chrissie spent most of the af

  • Untold Love   Chapter 31

    By the time she actually got to eat her breakfast, Chrissie’s composure was stretched to all new level. It was the little things that got to her. The girl at the front counter of Cracker Barrel’s restaurant directed them to a table near a window and asked, “How’s this?” And Race turned to Chrissie and said, ‘Is this okay with you, or would the sunlight bother you?”She didn’t say anything. She just sat down and kept her mouth shut. Then when the server came by and asked for their drink order, Chrissie deliberated on having the cranberry juice -- which she loved -- or just some coffee, and Race looked up and smiled and said, “She’ll have both.” Chrissie bit down on her tongue. Then he asked for extra pecans in her pancakes, an extra order of the hashbrown casserole to take home with them -- “Just in case you want some later.” -- and then held her hand tenderly on top of the table and said, “When was the last time I told you how beautiful you are?”The irony of the situation did

    Race walked out, not hearing Chrissie sputtering on the bed as the implication of his teasing set in. "I'm spoiled?" She thought about that, really did not like how her thoughts were coming together, and chewed on her lip until Dena poked her head around the corner."Hey, you," her sister smiled gleefully. "So, how was it?"Chrissie, deep in thought about the sincerity in Race's words when he said he spoiled her, she glanced up at Dena. "Huh? Oh, nothing happened. Am I spoiled?""What?" She bounced on the bed next to Chrissie and kept grinning."Am I spoiled?" she repeated."What do you mean, spoiled as in tainted, or spoiled as in pampered?"Chrissie glared because she honestly didn't think there were levels to being spoiled. "What do you think?"Dena rolled her mouth around a bit, thinking about her answer. "Do you want the 'You're my sister and my very bestest friend in the whole-wide world' answer, or do you want the truth?"Chrissie's eyes widened. "It's true?! I'm a sp

    When he saw her, dancing by herself to the music, he could only grin and shake his head some more. She wore a lime green nightgown that fell to her thighs, a pair of blue jeans, her faux fur slipper boots and a cashmere shawl over her shoulders. It looked like she'd been playing dress-up again tonight.Slowly, so as to not startle her, he walked over and said, "Hello, Chrissie."She smiled dreamily as she danced in a circle. "Don't you just love this song?"Yeah, he did. "Lay It Down" was "Their Song." They danced to it at their wedding, much to Dolly's disgruntlement. The rock ballad wasn't the most appropriate song for a wedding reception, but Chrissie wanted it, and so they used it."May I have this dance?" he offered, holding out his hand to her."Oh, yes...please," she sighed and slipped into his arms. They moved around the room through three repeats of the song. Race gorged himself on watching her sweet face as she smiled hypnotically, her eyelids half-closed. As exhau

  • Untold Love   Chapter 28

    Race smoothed out the piece of notepad paper on Chrissie's desk. He found it earlier this week while looking for a pen to jot down a reminder to call his racing sponsor and reschedule a meeting with the athletic clothing company. When he saw the words that his wife wrote in an attempt to apologize to him, he couldn't believe his eyes. The notepad had fallen out of her work bag that he knocked to the floor, and his heart almost stopped."...It's sad, so sad...sorry seems to be the hardest word..."The lyrics to the song had clearly been written in the last two weeks because underneath that page had been a note about a doctor's appointment.Slowly, he dug out Chrissie's box from the desk drawer, almost afraid that his memory was as bad as hers. But no...as soon as he held the letter written years ago, right after they first met, he trembled because similarities were just too astonishing.Race, I'm sorry for...well, you know why. This past week has been wonderful, and you are a great guy

  • Untold Love   Chapter 27

    Though dawn had yet to approach, Race watched the landscape along the interstate swoosh by his window. Half of him knew he should have canceled this training trip, but the other half of him knew he needed to get away, if only for the day. Chrissie didn't seem to mind that he'd be out of town all day, and Dena practically pushed him out of the door early this morning after they took care of Chrissie and her nightly sleepwalking, saying that at least he could get a little sleep during the three hour drive to Fayetteville.But sleep evaded him. All he could think about was what Chrissie said last night over gyros and spanakorizo. "I don't want to tell anyone else," she said, arguing with Dena.Dena said, "People need to know. They're going to start suspecting that something is going on.""Let them suspect," Chrissie returned. "I'll deal with them as things happen, but it's my problem. No one else needs to be dragged into it."It's my problem...not his and hers...just hers. The implicatio
