“It’s hot,” I muttered. I had only managed to get up to my calves before I rested my butt on the edge.
“Well, babe, it’s a hot tub, so I think it’s doing what it should be.”
I playfully cupped my hand and splashed Jonas in the face. “I think you have some of that sass Meg talks about.”
He grabbed my wrist and pulled me into the water. “It’s hot,” I protested.
“Just give it a second,” Jonas laughed. “You’ll get used to it.” He pulled me onto his lap, and I settled my knees on either side of his legs.
“I guess this isn’t so bad,” I whispered.
“I told you that you would get used to it,” he smirked.
“Might have something to do with my seat.” I winked and laid my hands on Jonas’ chest. “Tell me about your tattoos.” I brushed my fingers over the pretty woman’s face on his arm.
“That is my mom,” he murmured. “She was the prettiest, and I remember my dad telling her all the time how much he loved her.”
“Were they married?” I asked.
Jonas shook his head and frowned. “Engaged. He actually popped the question right before they died.”
I trailed my fingers up his arm and over his cheek. “I’m so sorry, Jonas.”
“Yeah, the only thing that helps a little bit is to know they were together. At least they weren’t alone.”
My heart broke for Jonas. Both of my parents were gone, but it hadn’t happened when I was so young. Nolan and I had been later in-life babies for them, and they passed away from old age when I was eighteen. “Mal and Turtle, right?”
He nodded. “You remembered.”
“I remember everything you wrote me, Jonas. I can’t tell you how many times I would read your letters. I’m pretty sure I could recite some of them word for word.”
“Same, babe. I don’t know if you know this, but there really wasn’t much to do in prison other than read your letters over and over and count down the days until I was free again.”
I trailed my fingers up his arms and pressed a kiss to his lips. The water swirled around us, gently lapping against our skin. The temperature of the water was hot, and so was the passion between us.
With every passing day, I fell more and more in love with Jonas.
Every expectation I had about him he exceeded and was a million times more than I ever thought he would be.
With each press of our mouths, the world around us faded into oblivion. In between breathless kisses, I whispered, "We both waited so long for this."
“I’d wait an eternity for you, Lennox.”
Lost in our own world, my eyes opened in surprise when the water around us splashed, and something slammed into me.
“Marty!” Jonas hollered.
Before the water could settle, Doc launched himself into the water and splashed around happily.
“My god,” I laughed. “Talk about ruining the moment.”
“I think this is what it’s like to have kids and be cockblocked.”
Marty made his way over to Jonas and sat his butt next to him. He sniffed Jonas’ ear, then licked his face in one swipe.
“Come on, man. I was putting the moves on your mom,” Jonas grumbled. He splashed water on his face, and Marty laid his head on his shoulder.
“I think your hot tub fantasy might be ruined.” Doc moved next to me but then swam to the other side of the hot tub.
