“No. It will mess her hair.” Zee makes a face at me like I’m stupid for asking.

“Thought so.” I look out at the view of the waves.

“So,” Zee starts and draws my attention back to her. “Girlfriend?” She doesn’t look at me when she says the word, and I wonder if she doesn’t like the idea.

It was a risk.

I mean—I was only here for another week. But I feel more for Zee already than any other girl. She’s special, and if I can’t say that by calling her my girlfriend, how can I?

“Well, aren’t you?” I toss it back to her to see how she responds.

“I am. At least while you’re here.” She finishes her bite and looks at me. There’s a longing that makes my chest hurt a little. Continuing like we are is going to cause more pain when I leave—for both of us. But I didn’t want to stop because of that.

How can you live your life like that? You’ll miss out on all the good stuff.

“We’re having fun, right? I know I am. And I intend to spend as much time as I can with you for the next week. We can think about after when we get there.” I reach out and cup her face. “Deal?”

“Deal.” She finishes her sandwich and snags a few of my chips.

“Are you going to come surf later?” I ask, scrunching up our rubbish and putting it back in the bag.

“Nope. That was a one-time thing.” She straightens the towel and then lies back down, getting comfortable in the sun.

“Are you sure? You were great for a first-timer.”

“I’m sure. I’m glad I did it, though. Thank you.” She leans up on her elbows, and I bend in to kiss her.

Her lips are warm and melt beneath mine. The heat races up my spine, and the urge to take this further beats through my body.God!

I start to pull away just as her arm circles my neck, and she pulls me down towards her. Her tongue pushes inside my mouth, and the kiss turns hot and sexy way too fast. My hand slides down the side of her body, and all I feel is soft, fucking perfect skin. She’s wearing nothing but the bikini that’s only really underwear in my head, and I can feel all of her against me. It’s not helping where my mind is taking me. And fucking fast. My cock throbs in my suit, and I know I won’t be able to move for a few moments.

“Zee.” I rest my forehead to hers. “We’re in the middle of the beach. And…” Words fail, but I take a breather and think about icy water. Cold. Ice. Water.

Her little giggle tells me she knows exactly what she’s doing.

I shuffle away from her and take a few deep breaths.

“I’m going to grab a few waves.”

“Okay. I’ll be here when you get back.” She positions the hat over her eyes again and gets comfy.

With one last breath, I push up on my knees and check I won’t embarrass myself when I stand. I shove my arms into the rest of the suit and grab my board.

One more week, and I’ll be leaving to go and chase my dreams of surfing around the world.

But right now, Zee seems to be all the dream I want.

Now

Zennor Williams.

In Tregethworth.

She looked just as good as she did when I first saw her all those years ago at Molly’s. That memory will be ingrained in my mind forever.
