Blair wasn’t sure who moved in first, but soon their lips were just inches from each other and Erin’s body was towering over hers. Erin raked her eyes all over Blair’s body before stopping at her lips. “Only kissing, okay? And we keep our clothes on.”

Blair put a hand over her chest and feigned offense rather than show how extremely excited she was over what was about to happen. “Of course. What kind of girl do you think I am?”

Erin laughed and brought her lips to Blair’s once again.

With friends like this, who needs other women?

Chapter 22

Erin

“Yes. Of course. I’ll be right there. Thank you for calling.”

Erin sighed as she ended the call and closed her laptop. Clearly, she wasn’t getting any work done today. She had already kind of figured that would be the case when she woke up with a scratchy throat and runny nose, but since she was still working from home on Fridays, she thought maybe there was a chance she could force herself to do something.

Any hope of being productive went out the window after the call she just received from Nolan’s daycare. Apparently, he wasn’t acting like himself, so they took his temperature and it was high. Taking care of herself was one thing. Taking care of a sick toddler when she was already under the weather was a completely different ballgame. She had no idea how she was going to make it through the rest of today (and most likely through the weekend as well).

To make matters worse, Blair was supposed to be coming over after work again tonight, and now she had to tell her not to. Erin was getting way too used to their movie nights which often ended with them making out on the couch. Just thinking about those hot makeout sessions made Erin’s whole body heat up. Or was she getting a fever now, too? Shit.

She knew she had to go get Nolan from daycare, but she didn’t want to forget to tell Blair and have her unknowingly enter the house of germs, so she took out her phone to text her before leaving.

I have to cancel tonight :(

Erin was surprised when Blair’s response was almost immediate. Did she stare at her phone while she was supposed to be working? Why? Hot date? :-p

Erin rolled her eyes at her phone. Blair should know by now that if she was going to have a hot date with anyone, it would obviously be her. Yes. A hot date with my bed. Both Nolan and I are sick.

Blair’s next reply came in just as quickly. No way. I’m so sorry to hear that. Anything I can do?
