“Nothin sexier than mah man doin mah dishes,” Marnie whispered into Billie’s ear. She wound her arms around his waist from behind and curved into him.

Billie groaned with pleasure and turned to circle her into his sudsy arms. Marnie shrieked in mock dismay as the bubbles soaked into her maternity blouse.

“Commere, woman, you precious thang. I love you, you know? I love you and that baby settlin into your ribs. I’ll do dishes ever’ night if I can do ‘em for you.”

Marnie sighed in pleasure, standing on tiptoe to kiss his cheek. “I love you, too, Billie”

Rising creeks kiss banks goodbye
Rain obliterates
