“He’s right, though, correct?”

“Yes. Once we leave here, I will never see him again. Damn, Cammie. I hate it. I can’t believe how attracted I am to him.”

“Maybe you’re attracted to him because he’snotyour type and it’s just the thrill of being with him?”

Eden shook her head. “I don’t know. I look at him and I can’t breathe.”

“Oh, boy. Wait. Do you think that’s why he wasn’t on the trail ride this morning?”

“I’m not sure. He said it wasn’t the sex he regretted, it was the fact that it wasn’t allowed, and he could lose his job. And it couldn’t happen again.”

Cammie put her arm around her. “What do you want to do? If you want to check-out, we will.”

“We’ll lose the money.”

“That doesn’t matter. If you’re miserable, and you will be, seeing him, we can leave.”

She thought about it, then shook her head.

“No. We’ll stay. That’s just wasting a lot of money. I’ll get past it. Somehow.”

“I’m here for you. What about tomorrow? Do you still want to go on the camping trip?”

“Yeah, he probably won’t take that one either.”

“Okay.”

They reached Eden’s cabin.

“I’ll come and get you once I change.”

“Okay. Eden? I think you need to talk with him.”

“And say what? ‘I know you could lose your job, but let’s have sex anyway.’ I’m sure he’d go for that.”

“I’m so sorry. We’ll do our best to go on activities he’s not leading.”

“I’m not sure how we’d know.”

“I’ll see what I can find out. I’ll see you in a few minutes. A lazy day at the pool sounds perfect. Hey, maybe we can get in a game of tennis one day.”

“Sounds good.” Eden stepped onto the porch, inserted the key and pushed the door open. “I’ll be over in a few minutes.”

She didn’t wait to see if Cammie replied, she closed the door, and leaned against it. God! What was she going to do about Ian?

“Nothing. There is nothing you can do.”

Shaking her head, she walked to her bedroom, stripped, and then pulled on her swimsuit. She slid her feet into her flip-flops, picked up a couple of towels, and walked out the door to head for Cammie’s cabin.

At the door, she knocked, and the door opened. Cammie wore a red bikini with a towel wrapped around her waist.

“Are you hoping to see Dusty with that on?”

Cammie grinned. “He’s seen me in less.”

“Oh, dear Lord.” Eden laughed.

Later, as they lounged around the pool, Edensat up to apply more sunscreen. As fair as she was, she’d look like a lobster if she didn’t. She glanced around and saw Ian walking along the walkway surrounding the fence of the pool. He hadn’t looked her way, but she drank in the sight of him.
