“What makes you think that?” She’d shown herself to me a long time ago. The true, deep parts of her she rarely showed anyone. Even when she’d only speak to me in quips and barbs, I never stopped seeing her. “I know your favorite flowers are snapdragons because you like the way they bite. I know your favorite color is red and you always wear it on Sundays to close out the week on a high note. I know Gretchen’s lemon poppy seed cupcakes are your favorite because they remind you of your grandma, but you prefer the taste of strawberries and cream.”

Her eyes had gone hazy with the kind of light that filled me with hope for the first time in four years. “Anyone on the island could tell you those things.”

“I know what you did to Paige Newcomb’s jacket in the fourth grade. I’m the only one who knows that, actually.” When she laughed, I brushed her hair back from her face, unable to stop myself from touching her. “I know you’re afraid to disappoint the people you love, and you don’t know how proud you make them. I know that once you’ve decided to trust someone, you give them your whole heart. And I know they’d better be gentle with it because it breaks easily. I know where you like to be kissed.” I trailed my lips over the curve between her neck and her shoulder. Her breath hitched. “I know the sounds you make when I touch you in the right spot.”

She clutched the front of my shirt. “Wes.”

My name was little more than a shudder on her lips and I wanted to taste her there. “What do you want? Anything, it’s yours.”

She pushed up on her toes. “Kiss me.”

A sprinkling of water droplets hung in the air as tiny zaps of electricity lit them up. I wrapped her in my arms and brushed my lips against hers. She let out a soft moan as I took the kiss deeper, stroking her tongue with mine, driving us both crazy with need. Reaching one hand behind her thigh, I gripped it and dragged her against my aching cock.

She pulled back, breaking our kiss, and rubbed her hands over the stubble on my jaw. “Take me home. I want you to fuck me so good I can’t walk straight for three days.”

Well, damn. I did tell her I’d give her anything.
