Having Shana here in my bed feels damn near perfect. This woman is smart, sexy as hell… this is light-years away from the usual puck bunnies I hook up with.

When she agrees to come out with me and my teammates tonight, I’m thrilled. I wanna show Shana a good time, get her to let loose.

Shana shows up in cutoffs and a tank top, looking incredible as always. I introduce her to the guys, enjoying the envious looks on their faces.

As the drinks flow around the bonfire, Shana fits right in, bantering and laughing with everyone. Her confidence is so damn sexy.

I slide my hand onto her lower back. “Having fun, beautiful?”

She smiles. “Yeah, I am actually.”

“Good. But later, I wanna get you alone again,” I murmur suggestively in her ear.

Her eyes spark with lust and mischief. “Oh, you will. But you’ll have to work for it, superstar.”

I grin, excited about the challenge. I got a taste and now I’m addicted.

It’s only goodbye

Shana

Over the next few days, Lucas and I fall into an easy routine. We spend our days lounging by the pool, taking long walks on the beach, and enjoying steamy nights together.

I try to remind myself this is just a vacation fling. But Lucas keeps finding cute ways to surprise me - cooking dinner, bringing me flowers, suggesting new places to explore.

One night after another amazing date, Lucas tells me he booked us a couple’s massage at the resort spa. I’m touched by the thoughtful gesture.

“You know, I’m really going to miss this when I have to go back to San Francisco,” I admit.

Lucas caresses my face. “Yeah, I’m not looking forward to leaving either. But we’ll figure it out.”

I sigh. “Long distance never works.”

“We’ll make it work. I want to keep seeing you, Shana.” Lucas’s hazel eyes are earnest.

My heart flutters at this sweet, sexy man wanting more with me. And for now, I silence my doubts with a deep kiss.

I can’t remember the last time I was this taken by a woman. Shana’s got me wanting things I never even considered. A long-term relationship. Maybe even a ring, kids…

Usually when I’m crushing on a chick, my game gets lazy. But with her, I feel challenged to keep impressing her, planning romantic dates, being thoughtful and shit.

And it’s all worth it to see the surprise and happiness on her beautiful face.

I know long distance will be tough, but we got something special here. I’m not ready to let this thing between us die without giving it my all.

Then the dreaded last day of our stay comes.

When comes time to say goodbye I kiss Shana deeply, holding her tight. Then I whisper into her ear, “I’ll miss you every single day until we meet again.”

Shana looks up at me with tears in her eyes. “I’ll miss you too,” she whispers.

We stand there for what feels like an eternity, wrapped up in each other’s arms. I never want to let her go.
