"You didn't get anything?" I asked, stifling a yawn. I was still dead tired from staying up so late the night before. He buckled his seatbelt and pulled out of the parking lot. "Nah. I'll get something after I drop you off." He placed his hand on my knee and I laced my fingers through his. I left my muffin and coffee untouched, not wanting to miss a moment of caressing him. There would be plenty of time to eat once I was gone. We were only a few miles from the airport and I'd already decided that Alec should drop me off rather than accompany me inside. There was no reason for him to fight the parking garage when he couldn't even go through security with me. My plan was to get a little work done while I waited to board the plane. Olivia wouldn't be flying out until later that evening, so I hoped to bang out a couple thousand words to at least feel productive. As the exit signs for the airport came into view, I gripped Alec's hand tighter.
