He let out a harsh breath. “Don’t tempt me.” He cupped my face with his hand and looked deep into my eyes. “I like you, Kara. A lot. I don’t want to mess this up by sleeping with you too soon.”
I was disappointed and my body was screaming for him to take me, but I was flattered he thought so highly of me. We swam back over to the dock and he got out of the water. He turned around to help me out and pulled me against him so I could feel his erection against my thigh.
“Feel that,” he growled. “Don’t think I don’t want you, Kara. You can feel the proof right there.” He slid his hands to my ass and gripped me tighter against him. “I want you so bad I ache.” He leaned down and kissed me. “And I will have you soon, just not tonight.”
I nodded and he let me go so he could put his t-shirt back on. He handed me my shorts and shirt before we both slipped our sandals back on. We walked back to his truck silently, hand in hand. Before he got into his truck, he kissed me again, this time a little slower, but still full of passion and the promise of what was to come later.
“I’ll come see you tomorrow at the diner,” he said as he jumped up to the driver’s seat.
“Ok,” I smiled back, shutting the door behind him.
“Thanks for tonight.” He started up his truck and I moved away from him so he could back up. I watched him leave, my fingers touching my lips. He was an amazing kisser. I went inside the cottage and found Grandma in the kitchen with a glass of water.
“JT just leave?” She asked, a small smile playing on her lips.
“Yeah,” I sighed, opening the fridge to get a bottle of water.
“You really like him, don’t you?”
“I do, Grandma. I know I’ve only known him a couple of days, but it feels right.”
She sat down on a stool at the kitchen counter. “I felt the same way about your grandpa.” She had told me the story of them meeting a million times, but I never got tired of hearing it. I’m pretty sure she knew she told me this story over and over again but I think she also never got tired of telling it.
“It was a church function and I was sitting with my girlfriends. He was the new boy in town and everyone was talking about him. I thought he was cute, but nothing special. We literally ran into each other when he was on his way back from getting some water and I knocked it with my hand so it spilled all over him. I felt foolish and ran off without saying anything, but in school on Monday he made sure to come talk to me. We were inseparable ever since.”
“Your parents were ok with you getting married so young?” I couldn’t imagine getting married out of high school. If I went to my parents even now at my age and told them I was getting married, they would probably freak.”
“Oh sweetie, life was different then,” she dismissed me with a wave of her hand. “Most people got married right out of school.”
I nodded and took a drink of my water. “You’re probably right.” My thoughts went back to JT.
“I really like him, Grandma.” I couldn’t help but gush.
“He really likes you too. I could tell by the way he kept looking at you this afternoon at the diner. He was watching your every move.”
I stifled a yawn. “Really?”
She nodded and came over, hooking her arm in mine. “Now let’s get you to bed. Sunday morning is a busy time at the diner.”
She walked me to my room, giving me a hug and kiss before I went into my room. I flopped on the bed when I heard the ding of my phone from my bag. I dug it out, figuring it was Brittany, but I was surprised to see it was from JT.
I gotur number from Matt who got it from Brittany. Hope it’s ok. Just wanted to say goodnight.
A smile brokeout wide on my face and I sat up on my bed, crossing my legs in front of me. I sent him a quick reply.
It’s fine.I’m glad you did.
I changedinto my pajamas while I waited for him to respond. I thought about the way his hands felt on my bare skin in the cool lake water. I touched my lips again, my heart racing when I thought about his lips on mine.
My phone dinged again and I quickly reached for it.
I had a great time tonight.
I had seenhim about an hour ago and I already missed him.
Me too.
I threw backthe blankets and climbed into bed when he sent a response.
