I might have been in danger of my head getting a little bigger if she kept it up, but I couldn’t resist asking, “And what’s that?

“Time alone with my man.” She reached across the table and took my hand.

I really liked hearing her call me her man. “Your man, huh?” I brushed my thumb over her knuckles. “Guess that makes you my girl.”

“I like that,” she admitted. “Your girl.”

I glanced around again to make sure no one was close enough to hear. Then I leaned as close as possible over the small table. “For a minute, when you said you’d get something better after we went back to our room, I thought you were going wax poetic about my amazing cock.”

“No.” She laughed and threw a fry at me, but then she shrugged. “But it’s not half bad.”

I threw the fry back.

After lunch, we changed and went to the pool. No one was in the water, but an older man slept in one of the lounge chairs with a book open on his chest.

It didn’t take long for Sav to point out that she’d been on the swim team in high school, and she was sure she could whip my ass in a race.

“I live next to a lake,” I pointed out. “I’ve been swimming longer than you.”

“Only because you’re older. It’ll be a challenge.” She splashed me.

“For you. Like taking candy from a baby for me.” I splashed her back, then dunked her.

We taunted each other a little more before we went to the far wall and got ready to race.

“Hey, you’re standing out further than me,” she whined. “No fair. You shouldn’t get a head start.”

“I will always have the upper hand because I’m taller than you,” I joked. “You should just give up now.”

She smirked and started the countdown. “One, two—"

“Three,” we said together and then pushed off the wall, diving into the water.

I swam leisurely, wanting to give Sav a fighting chance. I underestimated her, and once we were there, I had to pick it up a notch to stay past her. I beat her by a few seconds and wouldn’t let her touch the wall when she reached me.

Our laughter accidentally woke the sleeping man, who grumbled and stomped out with his book.

We returned to the tasting room for another tour at sunset. I felt energized from swimming and excited about another night with Sav in my arms.

As Sav selected a bottle to bring upstairs for us to share, my phone buzzed in my pocket. I almost ignored it, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. I’d have worried about it being some kind of work emergency until I checked it.

Sean had texted me, and fortunately it was all good news.

Sean:Thanks again for the recommendation. We visited the venue today and loved it. We’re going to keep the reservation.

Sean:I owe you a beer when you get back to town.

The guilt I felt about lying about where I was hit hard. Waiting until after his wedding was going to be a hell of a challenge.

Chris:Sure man. Glad I could help.

“Ready?” Sav asked. I glanced up from my screen and found her holding a bottle of sweet red she’d enjoyed during the tastings.

I shoved my phone in my pocket and took her elbow to lead her back to our room. “I am. I’m ready to make our last night here one to remember.”
