Chapter One
“You want me to babysit this Friday?” Elise Kelley
asked. She was twenty-one years old, and had been babysitting for Mr. Ross
since she was a teenager, and his wife left him.
Jon Ross was a hot single dad. He worked out a lot,
seeing as he owned the local gym. Some women thought he was wealthy, but he
wasn’t. The gym made him enough to live comfortably, but also to put money
aside for college for both kids. He dated but never brought a woman home.
Elise had heard that he was damn hot in the sack as
well. Only from rumors she had heard while working at the mall serving
doughnuts. He had quite the reputation.
“If you don’t mind. I’ve got a client coming by the
gym, and he only likes to visit when everyone has gone.”
“Sure.” Whatever .
“Huh?” he asked.
“Nothing. You know if you’re going on a hot date, you
can tell me. I’m just your babysitter. You don’t owe me any explanation.”
“It’s not a hot date. I’d tell you if I was taking a
woman out. Are you available?”
“Yes, I’m available.” She happened to like the twins,
George and Alicia. They were good kids, and they liked her as well. They
behaved for her and never gave her crap, which was always a good thing.
“Excellent. If you came to the gym, you’d see that I
wasn’t joking. I do have personal clients.”
“It’s no problem, Mr. Ross.”
“Please call me Jon.”
“No problem, Jon. You wouldn’t get me in a gym unless
it had ice cream at the end of it.”
He chuckled. “I’ll see you Friday evening. Goodbye, Elise.”
Damn.
She loved it when he said her name. It was always so
deep, and it made her panties wet to hear him.
He had already hung up, so she put her phone down,
staring at it on the table.
“What’s the matter, honey?” her mother asked, walking
into the room.
She was home from college for a couple of weeks, and
she was using the time to catch up on her studies.
“Mr. Ross wants me to babysit for him.”
“Ah, I’m not surprised. The twins are not very nice
from what I hear.”
“George and Alicia are sweet,” she said, defending the
twins she looked after.
“I don’t know. I’ve heard they’re horrible, whining
terrors. He went through the caring agency, and no one wanted to work for him.
He’s had a hard time of it during school vacations when they’re off. From what
I hear, you’re a godsend.”
Elise shrugged. “I’ve never had an issue with them,
and I’ve been babysitting them for years.”
“I wonder if they see you as a mom figure? ”
She almost spat her coffee out as she stared at her
mom. “What?”
“Their mother left them when they were nothing more
than babies. You’ve been the only one to take care of them.”
Elise had seen Jon struggling outside of the
supermarket. Alicia had been screaming, George had stunk as he had filled his
diaper, and Jon had just looked frazzled. Instead of walking past him like so
many had done, she’d gone to him, offering help.
At first, he’d declined, but in that moment she saw
the stain of George’s full diaper through his romper. She hadn’t even given him
a chance to stop her. Picking George up, she had taken him to the toilet with
Jon following behind her.
With an efficiency that obviously impressed Jon, she’d
cleaned George up, changing his clothes, and settling him down with a pacifier.
After she handed the quiet baby to his father, she’d picked Alicia up, and
taken the warm bottle that had been kept in a special thermos in the carryall,
and she started feeding her.
Within minutes she’d had both babies quiet and happy.
“Do you want a job?” Jon had asked.
It was a fond memory. He’d paid her to babysit after
school, on the weekends, and pretty much every chance she got.
She’d put all the money into a savings account ready
for college. The only time she didn’t babysit was
