Anna smiled a bit as Cade spoke, it only disappearing when he mentioned his son. Cade needed this answer so much. Something to give him peace.
The smile was brought back when he said he was talking too much. Alcohol could do that. He was laughing though and so was a lot more lighthearted than he had been at the beginning.
Anna was not immune to the effects of alcohol so the next thought in her head came out of her mouth unbidden. ”You’re cute”
The thought had been in her head all day. It really only made sense that the amount of alcohol would have forced the words out. Still she hadn’t had enough to bury the shame she felt at saying it now.
”Shit,” she said, looking down in embarrassment. An embarrassment she wouldn’t have felt if Cade wasn’t still getting over his wife and child. ”I’m so sorry, that was incredibly insensitive of me. I think I need to cut myself off.” she kept looking down, unable to meet his eyes.
