"Good morning, pretty," Chris says, his silky voice close to her ear, his breaths fanning her neck, tingling her body.
"Morning, Mr. Sexy," Cali says, extending her body lazily.
"I have good news for you," Chris says as he lifts one elbow. The other arm draws her in closer to his nude body.
"What is it?" Cali's interest is awakened, drawing her attention away from Chris' enticing firm chest and bulging muscles.
"Kimberly is in," Chris says with a grin.
"Really?" Cali exclaims with glee.
"And here is more: she wants to write an open letter with Ruby."
Cali exclaims with joy.
"Schuh, little monster, you are waking up our neighbor," Chris giggles.
"That's considerably better than I had anticipated. I expected her to decline our invitation." Cali is overjoyed.
"She said you and Ruby gave her courage, especially your promise on my behalf."
