She liked him, motherfucker.

He could practically feel his chest puffing out like it did when he scored a goal. It was tempting to fist pump in the air.

“Do you want to know what I do to people I like?” he asked. He meant it to be just a little bit flirty. Small flirty. Starter flirty. This was sledgehammer flirting. He’d just hit her over the head with it.

He was definitely broken. He’d completely lost the art of subtlety.

He expected her to reprimand him. To tell him he was out of line.

Instead, she gave him a look that nearly took him to his knees.

It was a naughty look. Hints of the sexy model that she had been.

Then without responding to him at all, she just turned and went into her room, yanking her hair down out of her bun as she crossed the threshold.

Dark hair tumbled down her hair and her hands burrowed into it, massaging her scalp and sending her thick strands swinging out. She glanced back at her over her shoulder, lips parted, eyelashes sweeping down over her brown eyes.

The doorway framed her like a picture. She was stunning. Gorgeous. Sexy. Lickable.

His nostrils flared. He was on the verge of doing something really damn stupid.

Then she slammed the door behind her, blocking his view.

“Jesus,” he murmured out loud, running his hands through his hair, lacing his fingers, and locking his palms behind his head. “What the hell am I doing?” he asked, frustrated with himself.

He had no answers. Neither did his coffee.

His phone buzzed in his shorts pocket. He pulled it out and saw Torin had sent him another modeling picture of Eddie.

This one was her wearing jeans and no shirt, her hands over her chest so he couldn’t see her nipples. There was a hint of the curves of the bottom of her tits.

FUCK OFF, he texted Torin.

Then he texted Sloane to let her know they were on their way.

He went into the bathroom and locked the door. He stripped off his shorts, jumped in the shower, and closed his fist over his rock solid cock. He propped his phone up on the counter so that the picture of Eddie was visible from under the water stream and worked his cock. He couldn’t spend all day at the lake with her in a swimsuit without letting off some steam first.

A whole thirty seconds later he was done, leaning his forehead on the cool tile to bring his body temperature down as he breathed hard.

His phone screen had gone dark.

Holy shit. He was in trouble.

He had managedto semi pull himself together by the time he was driving Eddie to Sloane’s to pick up Finn and Licorice. He had packed a bag for Finn with his trunks and beach toys and had grabbed some water bottles, trail mix snack packs, sunscreen, bug spray, and towels. It was just a fun day in the sun. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Eddie was expressing amazement over the speed of Jesse and Astrid’s relationship to him.

“They’ve only been together a few weeks and they’re engaged? That’s just crazy. It’s like our parents. How can you possibly know you want forever with someone that soon?” she asked, shaking her head.

“Yeah. How could you possibly know that fast?” he repeated, chest tight, well aware that when you knew, you knew.

He’d always known with Kendra.

Since the tenth grade he had known she was going to be his wife.

The problem was, he hadn’t been sure of one damn thing in the four years since she’d been gone.

Until recently. Until Eddie.
