I'm glad Bella was strong enough to be honest about her being hurt, but vulnerable enough to admit she wanted and like it, and bold enough to open herself up to this new adventure. How did he get her number, I wonder. Hope he didn't open her mail. But how else would he have gotten it, unless he found it somehow on the was easy enough to get her name and address, being her next door neighbor so I guess he could've just searched it. He really seems bold enough to just walk across the yard and introduce himself. Make up some pretense to speak to her, and then invite her to tea, or coffee on the porch. But of course this way is much more scintillating and she so needed it. She craved it. Clever idea with the letter. I really thought on the phone he was going to claim he was just calling her or her sounds, beautiful to cover for his slipup, but I guess that shocked her so severely that she had to hang up immediately. ..And change her number. My favorite parts was their face to face meeting. I enjoyed trying to puzzle this one out. Never would've guessed the neighbor, until the night she couldn't sleep. I was certain it was someone who knew her from the library. Emmett and Jasper were fun additions to the story. Thanks for Sharing.

Lawd that was hot. And really unsafe, lol.

Oh so he wants her to have an "Aha moment", wants her to know.

Oh!

Aww, she's avoiding him. She's ashamed. I get it because it was meant to be faceless. Now she must feel a bit violated.

!I suspected it wasn't a musical,he was clever with the bit about he bet her name was Beautiful. He told her there was no one else, and he seemed disappointed when Bella said it wasn't real. But um, him slipping and saying her name must have freaked her out. It would certainly alarm her. Of course if he is has enough blood flow still going to his other head to be quick thinking, he could just claim to be calling her beautiful.

He's good. He knows how to coax her back into the bubble with him.

I like how her caller acknowledged her concern. He broke character, so to speak, to reassure her. And did it in such a way that he was able to recapture the mood.

Welp that took an abrupt turn. But I don't blame Bella for being leery.

LOL at her panting from and explaining that it's not because she's hot for him. Love Emmett and Jasper and their slightly sassy attitudes. I think Bella enjoys her caller telling her what to do, directing her. It's easier for her to be less self conscious.

Ok she was doing so well at first, but then maybe it would've been better, more mysterious to say less. Like after admitting her actual age. She could've stopped at she didn't want to lie. Everything that came after was a little awkward for anonymous phone s3x. Although it makes more charming and real.

She's game for some fun, but giving up names and initiating an actual call takes away the veil of anonymity. I don't think I'd be adventurous enough. I think he knows who he called.

OMG! How have I not read this!?

Woo hoo. That was hot.

I adored this! Short and sweet and spicy. Thank you for writing it!
