Accidentally All of Me Catch You Later
RainaHow was it that even down the phone, he could get me all flustered and overheated? I needed to get myself together. I needed to—I wasn’t sure, but I needed to do something. Maybe get off the phone and stop sounding like such a blundering idiot?“I guess you will,” he replied. How could he sound so cool? He was talking like he had the world in the palm of his hand, and me right there with it.“Catch you later,” I replied, and I practically cringed when I heard how breathy and overly interested my voice sounded. Oh my goodness. Was that really what I was like when I was around him? I had hoped that I might be able to keep myself together just a little better than that, but it seemed like I had lost the ability.We made sure to exchange numbers and said our goodbyes, and I hung up the phone and stared at it for a long moment. All my thoughts about work and worms and dogshit had vanished right out of my head. I was going to see him again. I was going to see him again. It was like I
Accidentally All of Me Give Me Shelter
HarryBy the time we were ready to leave for the shelter, I was pretty sure that Winnie was going to pop with excitement.Maybe I should have kept it under wraps that I was planning this trip, just for the time being. She was so excited she was barely able to keep herself together. I was glad to see that she was looking forward to this, but there was also a nervous part of me that was concerned that she wasn’t going to take it well if we couldn’t find a little furry friend for her to walk away with at the end of today.She had spent the whole week researching breeds, training, dog food types, and everything that anyone could possibly need to know about the dog that they were taking in. Every mealtime had been a chance for her to hit me with another huge stack of information, another pile of everything she had learned.She was taking this seriously, at the very least, but I was getting a little overwhelmed with everything that I needed to take in to be a remotely good dog owner.But st
Accidentally All of Me Love at First Sight
Harry“Okay, let’s take a look at the first row we have up for adoption right now,” Raina replied. “I know most of them pretty well, so we can talk about the ones that suit you best, okay? Let’s get started.”And with that, we were off, and I had to admit, this was a harder task than I had expected it to be. All these dogs had such personality, and all of them looked at us with such hope. Raina explained the breeds and the temperaments and the backstories to these little hounds, and Winnie interjected with what she had learned from all her studying recently.It was nice to hear her so passionate about something. She had obviously dedicated so much time to this, time to prove that she was worthy and capable of handling the hard work of a dog all by herself. I knew that whatever animal we took in, I was going to end up covering for a lot of its care, but that was all right.Maybe she just needed something to love once more. Something that she could take care of. Something that she could
Accidentally All of Me Finding the One
RainaAs soon as I saw the look on Winnie’s face, I knew that the deal was done. This was over. Everyone else could pack up and go home as far as this little girl was concerned because she was just about in love with the little guy in front of her.“What’s his name?” Winnie asked me, not taking her eyes off the terrier mix in front of her as she spoke.“Tink,” I replied. “He’s a really sweet guy actually. You want me to bring him out so you can say hello to him in person?”Winnie nodded enthusiastically, and I smiled and went to unlock the door of his cage. Tink was already bounding back and forth on the spot, running this way and that as he waited to get at the little girl. He could probably sense her energy, how excited she was to even be near him.As soon as the door was open, Tink bounded toward her, and she held out her arms to cuddle him tightly. I looked over at Harry again, and he smiled back at me. He could see as well as I could that this was as perfect as it was going to ge
Accidentally All of Me Taking Him Home
RainaIt was clear from the way Frankie was gazing at him that she was thoroughly enjoying his presence there, especially since it wasn’t like we got a lot of hot guys hanging out around these parts. I felt a little swell of protectiveness. He was mine, wasn’t he? At least, that was what I thought. Even though I had turned him down for that second date, even though I was only seeing him again because he wanted a dog...“Frankie, could you get all the adoption papers we need ready?” I asked, and she nodded, not taking her eyes off Harry for a single moment. It was like cartoon hearts were pumping in her eyes. She couldn’t have made it much more obvious if she tried. But then, I supposed I could hardly claim that I was the best at playing it super cool.Frankie shuffled the papers together and then handed them off to Harry. She eyed him as he filled out the forms in front of him, and when she saw him write his name down, it looked like her eyes were going to bug right out of her head.“
Accidentally All of Me Filling Her In
Harry“All right, buddy, let’s see what everyone at work makes of you, shall we?” I murmured as I helped Tink out of the car and onto the sidewalk. I had no idea how people were going to react to me bringing a dog into the office, but hey, my place, my rules, right? I could do whatever I wanted. In theory.Besides, when I had been heading out for work that morning and Winnie had been getting ready for school, I thought she was going to burst into tears when I told her that I would be leaving Tink home alone for a few hours.“I’ll come back at my lunch hour and take him for a walk,” I’d assured her. “You don’t have anything to worry about, okay?”“But what if he gets lonely or sad?” she’d demanded, and she’d squeezed him into a tight hug and hit me with a hard look.“He’ll be fine—”“Can you take him into work with you?” she’d pleaded. “Just for today? I don’t want him hanging around all by himself.”I sighed but conceded the point. She probably was right, after all. We had just taken
Accidentally All of Me Life is Better with a Dog
Harry“Well, you wouldn’t have gotten your hands on this dog without me, for one,” Yara pointed out. “If I hadn’t set you up on that date...”“Hey, I think you underestimate the convincing powers of my niece,” I replied. “I’m sure she’d have gotten me to give in some time or another.”“Nonetheless, I’m taking full responsibility for this,” she said as she leaned down to give Tink another cuddle. “Which means I get to see him whenever I want, right?”“Something like that,” I agreed. “Though you’re going to have to fight Winnie for him. She’s already treating him like her little baby. I don’t think you’re going to have an easy time getting through her to get your hands on him.”“Bring it on,” Yara said with a grin. “She’s little. I’ll win. Anyway, I’m going to go get on this shelter and see what I can set up. You take care of this little guy for me, okay? I’ll be back to see him as soon as I get the chance.”“See you,” I said, and with that, she headed out to leave me to the rest of my
Accidentally All of Me A Message
RainaAs I packed up my stuff for the day, I heard my phone buzz where I had left it in my pocket. I turned to check who it was, clicking open the message that was waiting for me in my inbox, and I couldn’t help but beam happily when I saw who was waiting for me.A picture of Winnie and Tink curled up on the couch together. It looked like the two of them were both passed out asleep. I pressed my lips together and smiled. Gosh, they looked like they couldn’t have been any happier if they had tried. It filled me with joy to see two such sweet little things who had been through so very much taking care of one another. This was how the universe worked sometimes, it seemed, bringing together those who needed each other most.The picture came with a note. Thank you for this. They’ve both tired each other out. I think he’s going to fit in just fine. I smiled down at the message. It was the first I had heard from Harry since the day he had come in and picked out Tink to take home with him, a

Accidentally All of Me Everything is Better with Her
HarryI hadn’t known until I’d met Raina how much I was hiding from, but now that I could see it, it made my heart ache to think about everything that I had been missing. I thought I had been protecting myself, but in reality, it had just been isolation.Yara had seen that. I was pretty sure, in fact, that she had seen that before I had. I had been ducking and diving from the truth, and she had seen through me, seen me for what I was, seen all the pain I had been carrying with me all this time. And that was why she had set me up on a date.It was crazy, really, thinking that all of this had started with something that I had been so averse to in the first place. I had pushed back against the very idea of going on that date, sure that it was just going to end with me making a fool of myself and looking like an idiot in the process.Of course, if I had known where all of this was going to lead me, I would have gone back in time and told myself to go with it, that it was going to be bette
Accidentally All of Me Party Time
Harry“All right, all right, if I could borrow your attention for a moment.” I stood up from the chair I had been sitting on and waved a hand in the air so that I could draw the attention of my staff and friends around me.Yara had done a hell of a job putting all of this together. It had only been a couple of weeks ago that I had brought up the idea of the party to her, and she had sprung into full-force action at once, running off this way and that to make sure everything got dealt with as best she could manage it.She told me she was just happy to finally have some kind of party she could organize—and said I could do with throwing a few more like it, actually, though I decided it was for the best that I ignored that little comment. I had been so busy these last few months, I couldn’t imagine finding any more time in my packed-out schedule for fun little gatherings like this.It had helped, of course, that George had been willing to put up his house and grounds to hold the party. We
Accidentally All of Me Deep Love
RainaHe wrapped his arms around me and pushed into me deep, filling me all the way up to the hilt, taking me like there was nothing in the world he would rather have been doing in that moment. I sank my nails into his back and let my body sink into the sheets below me, the softness absorbing me, at odds with his hardness.He didn’t hold back. He didn’t seem to see a need to, and I was grateful for it. After everything that had been happening lately, I felt like I needed this connection with him to remind myself where this all came from.Not that he was so good in bed that I would have gone through anything for him—though, that was a part of it—but it was a raw thing that existed between just us. Nobody could take it away from us, no matter how much they might have wanted to. This was ours and only ours, and we had made it together, and that meant nothing could change it.I could already feel myself getting close. It was the feel of his breath on my neck that did it for me, his essent
Accidentally All of Me Celebrating in Bed
RainaI had no idea why he was so eager for me to cancel on Reed that morning, but as soon as I had heard the tone in his voice, I’d known that it wasn’t up for debate. Harry had a damn good reason to want to see me, and I certainly wasn’t going to argue with it.As soon as he opened the door to his place, I knew what was running through his head. I grinned as he pulled me into his arms and kissed me deeply, like he was making the very most of the fact that I was here.“Thanks for coming,” he murmured, and he pushed the door shut behind me.“You going to make it worth my while?” I replied playfully.He scooped me off the ground and into his arms. I burst out laughing and hung on to him as he carried me up the stairs and toward the bedroom.He tossed me down on the bed, and it didn’t take long before our clothes went flying. I was wearing the scrubs that I would have to take into the office soon enough, so hardly my sexiest look, but he didn’t seem to care much.He stripped me off like
Accidentally All of Me More Shocking News
Harry“I was thinking more along the lines of a party than a bonus,” I replied to Yara. “Dogs allowed, of course.”“Well, when you put it like that…” She laughed. “Where were you thinking?”I scanned my brain for a moment and then landed on the perfect place.“Let me get in touch with George,” I replied. “I bet he’d love to have an excuse to do up his mansion.”“You really think he’d be willing to hand all that over for a company party?” she asked.I nodded. “You’d be surprised at how mellow he can be,” I replied. “Besides, think of all the women he’ll get to flirt with. It’ll be a dream come true for him.”“I guess so,” she agreed, shaking her head fondly at the thought. “You give him a call, and I’ll see what else I can pull in, all right? But I’m sure everyone would appreciate the chance to have some fun. Especially if our dogs are allowed to be there too.”I texted George as soon as she was gone, and he replied with an almost instant affirmation that promised me use of the house w
Accidentally All of Me A Gift
HarryI reached under the table and patted Tink where he was asleep at my feet. He might not have known it, but he was the reason that all of this weekend had been such a huge success.Without him, I would never have come across the shelter, and without that, I wouldn’t have been able to put together the awesome event that we had thrown the day before. It had been hectic as hell, but totally worth it, and I was proud to say that we had helped find homes for more than seventy animals over the course of the day.By the time it was over, Winnie was dead asleep in the back of the car with Tink, and George had to be dragged away from Nico, who he just couldn’t get enough of. But the day had been a wild success, and I knew that it wouldn’t be the only one that we had with the shelter.But for now, I was back at work, and I had to focus on catching up on everything that I had missed the last few weeks. Fuck, it had been so busy, I had hardly had time to remember that I so much as had a job.
Accidentally All of Me Happy Tears
Raina“Thank you for getting all of this set up,” I told Harry. “You have no idea how much this is going to help get people to start taking notice of the shelter.”“Well, it’s what you deserve,” he replied. “You’ve worked so hard here for so long. I wanted to do what I could to make it easier on you.”I kissed him again. “You know, you’re way sweeter than you have any right to be,” I murmured.He grinned. “Is that an insult or a compliment? I can’t tell.”“You decide,” I replied, and it was right then that I saw Rita and her son coming through the door. She had promised to put in an appearance, and she beamed as soon as she saw me.“Oh, how’s my favorite baby?” I greeted him with a coo, and I came over to hold him in my arms for just a moment.Rita handed him over to me at once, apparently glad to have a chance to put him down, if only for a moment. “Oh my goodness, I think I’m in a lot of danger being here,” she remarked as Marjorie emerged from the back room with a couple of lively
Accidentally All of Me Clear the Shelter
Raina“All right, do you have all the forms ready?” I asked Marjorie as the two of us practically sprinted around the shelter, trying to get everything ready for the adopt-a-thon that was meant to be happening today.She nodded. “I think so,” she replied, but she was clearly nervous.I put my hand on her shoulder. “Hey,” I soothed her. “Everything’s going to be fine. Everyone who’s coming today has already been vetted, you remember? So anyone who goes home with a pet, they’re going to be a good home for them.”“I know that,” Marjorie said. “I’m just... I don’t know if I’m ready to say goodbye to all these little guys after all this time.”“Don’t get all misty on me now,” I warned her. “We have to make space for other animals, remember? I want to make sure that we get as many of these guys off to new homes as we can. Think how good it’ll be to have the space so that you don’t have to worry about turning down anyone who needs a home, right?”“Right,” she agreed, and she nodded and tappe
Accidentally All of Me Sharing the Great News
Harry“I had my lawyer draw up these agreements,” she explained.Michael lifted his head from the papers that he had been going over. He nodded, looking satisfied with what he had seen.“Everything seems like it’s in order to me,” he remarked. “Harry, if you want to take a little more time to go over these and think about the decision, we can hang on to them for you—”“No, I’m ready,” I replied. I was dead certain. Nothing was going to change my mind. Nothing at all. I was happier than I’d been in such a long time. We had the house, I had Raina, and now, it looked like I was going to have my precious, perfect son on top of all of it. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. Not one little thing.“Thank you for this, Allison,” I said. “Thank you for trusting me with him.”“Thank you for letting us into your life after all this time,” she replied. “I know it’s more than I deserve. I know you’re being kinder than you should ever be with me—”“You never have to think like that,” I told he
