“Yeah?” I failed pathetically at sounding casual I knew he’d heard what I’d told hiain today It was his decision in the end

“I’ your ass”

I just about hit the ceiling My towel tenting, I suddenly found it hard to breathe “That sounds… Um I’m not mad at it”

Eyebrow arched, Etienne cut a glance down at me “Evidently”

“Like you’re not hard under that robe that is suddenly over your lap?”

“Oh, I aood I’ll ht ht inside you”

I shuddered in anticipation “We can’t Someone could walk in any second”

Etienne sighed “Sadly It would be irresponsible I have a reputation to maintain Sauna sex scandals do not play ith Olyes”

My heart skipped “You’re worried about Olyo for it?”

Etienne exhaled Sweat dripped down his temple, and I wanted to lick it “What would you think if we kept training and tried for that spot next season? Assu we still want to after the rest of this season If Bree’s well enough and we’re not miserable”

He snaggedhis bare knee into mine “What would you think if Bree and I moved back to Vancouver to train?”

Again with the hitting the roof I bolted straight up, gripping his fingers “Seriously? You want to come back? To train with Laura?”

Etienne nodded, his breathing shallow “We want to love skating again We want to be happy at the rink every day Laura said she’ll take us Bree can move in with Tim, and you and I can—” He broke off “If you wanted? Unless it’s too fast Is it too fast?”
