I say the minute my feet hit the bottom step. The last thing I expected was to come check on things down here and hear that. Instantly, the thought of Rae screaming anything, especially my name, has my dick ready to start the countdown to launch. Sorry to get your hopes up, big guy, no one is being called to active duty today. Or anytime soon for that matter. Rae jumps from the stool, knocking it over, her water bottle tumbling to the floor along with the magazine. “Shit! It’s not possible for someone as big as you to be such a fucking ninja.” “I thought I was a teddy bear.” I say crossing my arms over my chest. Her face is blood red in embarrassment, no doubt at me overhearing her one-sided conversation. I have to bite back my urge to laugh at how fucking cute she looks all worked up. “Have I been promoted?” The baby starts to cry from across the room. Rae doesn’t give me a second thought and immediately is at his side, pulling him from the pen.
