line and knowing you, you probably didn’t mean it to be hurtful, but she was about to leave me and that shit isn’t going to fly. So think before you embarrass her in front of our family. She’s mortified and hurting.”
    “I didn’t mean to ask like that. I was just…I was just trying to have a conversation.”
    “I know, Van.” I pulled her from Tim’s arms and wrapped her up in mine.
    Just as we separated, Emmy came down the stairs. She looked gorgeous but you could tell that she had been crying. I didn’t give a shit, but I didn’t want her feeling uncomfortable anymore. “Babe, come here for a minute.”
    “Bossy much.” That’s the woman I loved.
    “Didn’t you ever hear of Simon says?” I asked her. She rolled her big, bright eyes at me but continued shuffling towards me.
    “Ha,” she cracked up in my face. “Please.”
    “You still came.”
    “You always make me come. So what’s your point?”
    “That I’m fucking amazing. So, babe, I wanted you and this mongrel to make up before I have to spank you and let Tim deal with her.”
    “I’m sorry, Emmy. I didn’t really mean anything by it. I hope we can get along again.”
    “No, it’s cool. I didn’t mean to lose my temper.”
    They hugged it out and the world was right again.
    “Ready woman?”
    “Yes. Where are you taking me?”
    “You’ll see.” I was a huge Mariners fan and they were playing the White Sox, so there was something for the both of us. Natalie told me that Emmy was a huge Sox fan and had actually cried when Paul Konerko retired. I couldn’t blame her, he was a stud and had brought a championship to Chicago. As a rival, I didn’t care for him, but that was just the way of the game. I ordered the tickets while she got ready.
    Once we got to the truck, I kissed her like I did at the airport before helping her in. I loved this beauty and was sure we were going to be talking shit to each other when the game started.
    We pulled up to Safeco Field and her face beamed. “You’re taking me to a baseball game? Please tell me my Sox are playing?”
    “Yes, they are. You like the surprise?”
    She squealed then wrapped her arms around my neck, kissing me wildly. “Ooh, I can’t wait until we get back home. You’re going to need a reward.”
    “We can go now if you’d like,” I suggested.
    “No, I want to see the game,” she said before hopping out of the truck.
    They scanned my phone then we headed to our seats. Cam had season tickets, but I didn’t want to bother him and Nat. I still got great seats.
    “These are sweet seats, Simon. You didn’t have to do that.”
    “Babe, I don’t sit at the top, so I would have sat this low even if you weren’t here.”
    “Oh, yeah, how could I forget?”
    “Don’t, Emmy. Don’t make this into something it’s not. Money isn’t everything. It does add to a good life, but it’s not why you want me.”
    “No, it’s not, but I feel out of place.”
    “At a baseball game? I don’t think so. Tell me Sox lover, who’s your favorite current player.”
    “It’d have to be Chris Sale, of course. He’s got a wicked arm and skills.”
    “Good. Because I checked and he’s pitching today.”

    By the time we got home from the game, I was so horny. Watching her bounce up and down every time one of our guys got out, or when their guys scored a run was torture to my balls. I wanted her to bounce on me.
    It was dark and quiet when we got back. Cam had sent us a text asking if we wanted to join them for dinner, but I was too wound up to agree. We ate at the ballpark and I was sure we’d eat after I ravished her body and she showed me how thankful she was.
    “Simon, this place is really beautiful. Did you grow up here your entire life?” I loved that our home was built in the colonial style. It was old and beautiful with dark and ornate woodwork all around. The duel staircases led to different wings. I was extremely proud of it and our family.
    “Yes, Em.
