Shane had a warm smile on his face when he entered the room. He crouched down to hug her from behind.
Startled, Natalie stepped on the wrong pedal of the sewing machine.
Shane realized that he had made a mistake, so he let her go and apologized awkwardly, “Sorry, Honey. I—”
“It’s fine. This is just a sample,” replied Natalie. She picked up a pair of scissors and cut the thread that was sewn in the wrong place. “I was just testing the blade of the new machine and haven’t started sewing an actual outfit. When did you come back?”
Natalie put the scissors away and turned to her man.
He held her in his arms again and buried his head in her neck before replying, “Just a while ago.”
Shane ended up tickling Natalie. She couldn’t help but shrug her shoulders. “Hmm… Sneaking around right after you come home and didn’t even call out to me. You’re scared me earlier, you know?”
Shane chuckled. “I just wanted to see what you were doing.”
“Okay, now that you have seen it, let me go. I still have some work to do,” Natalie said, rolling her eyes at him.
Shane loosened his grip a little. “This will do, right? I won’t get in the way of your work, and you can sew away while I hug you.”
“You…” The man’s shamelessness surprised her. She found his behavior both frustrating and funny. “Okay, okay, you can hug me as you like. Just don’t move about too much or I’ll make another mistake.”
“All right.” Shane nodded affirmatively.
Natalie ignored him and paid attention to her sewing machine before starting it up.
As promised, Shane kept quiet and simply held her. He didn’t distract her whatsoever.
It didn’t take long before Natalie finished working. She was about to detach her finished product from the sewing machine to check it out when a huge palm suddenly showed up in front of her. It pinched her chin and forced her to turn around.
The man lowered his head and kissed her.
“Mmm…” Natalie yelped instinctively, but her lips twitched a second later. She was utterly speechless.
I knew it. This guy can never be good for long. He will surely act up after he behaves for a while. What’s happening right now proves my word!
Natalie sighed internally. She was a little annoyed and slightly delighted when she put her masterpiece away. She reached out and wrapped her arms around Shane’s neck to kiss him back.
