Oh, how I want to.
But I don’t.
Neither of us does anything. We just kind of enjoy the moment as we stand still, listening to our almost-shared breaths and trying like hell not to let our eyes meet.
Because if they do…
Outside, the rain is still falling. The sound is soothing, like white noise, until a rumble of thunder gets in on the soundtrack.
And then a bolt of lightning rips through the sky.
We both jump, which makes us laugh.
I’ve never been more thankful for a thunderstorm, seeing as I was about to do something really stupid—like fucking kiss the girl in front of me.
And maybe do more.
Ellie lets out a little shiver, and instinctively, without thinking, I lift my hands and gently rub her upper arms.
“Are you cold?” I ask, my voice rough and gravelly.
Touching her is electric, and I want to just do it forever.
It’d be so easy to reach around to her back and untie her bikini, letting it drop away and exposing those luscious breasts…for me to lick and suck on and—
“A little,” she croaks out, breaking me from my lustful reverie and reminding me to stop caressing her arms.
“Okay.” I drop my hands from her. “This towel on the floor is soaked.” I toe it away. “Let me go grab some dry ones.”
“All right, thanks.”
I pad over to the laundry room, leaving wet footprints in my wake.
I don’t care; I’ll clean up later.
The best thing for me to do right now is get away from Ellie for a few minutes to straighten out my head. Before I do something stupid, and she, caught up in the moment, too, doesn’t stop me.
Then we’ll both be fucked…in more ways than one.
Ellie
Damn, I just fucked up.
As I stand in the kitchen, shivering in my soaked bikini as Nils walks away to grab dry towels, I realize I just missed my chance. If I’d only looked up at him when we were standing so close, he probably would have kissed me.
No, I know he would have.
And isn’t that what I want?
Isn’t that why I wore my skimpiest bikini?
So why didn’t I just…look…up?
I let out a sigh. I guess I got caught up in the moment, as well. It was a good one, a nice one, one filled with heat and longing. I kept staring at Nils’s chest, so smooth, so sculpted, so hard. I wanted it pressed against me, sans bikini.
That body of his…shit, it’s beyond hot. I checked him out so many times when we were out by the pool.
But I was coy about it.
