If I would have thought ahead of myself for three seconds I wouldn’t have stuffed myself with Nic’s absolutely delicious meal. I’m now staring down at the bikini that Nic had Brad buy for me wondering how in the world I’m going to fit into the thing after eating such a big meal.
There’s a light knock on the bathroom door. “Are you okay in there?”
Nic’s not impatient. He sounds more concerned.
“Fine,” I mutter even though I’m anything but. I know I’m going to absolutely humiliate myself wearing this bikini.
I hold up the stringy thing. There’s barely anything there at all. My only saving grace is that Nic is the only one who is ever going to see me wear it.
I put on the bikini and look at myself in the full length mirror. “Oh, God.” It’s even worse that I thought it would be. I look completely ridiculous.
Another knock. “Are you sure you’re okay?”
I slowly open the door and step back into Nic’s bedroom.
When his jaw actually drops I feel like I’m going to cry. I’m not sure what I was thinking. He’s been with the most beautiful women in the world. Models and actresses. I definitely don’t look like any of them.
He’s got a strange expression on his face and it makes me extremely self-conscious. If there was giant hole anywhere close, I’d definitely crawl in it.
I try to blink back the tears that I can feel starting to accumulate in my eyes. “This was a mistake.”
I turn to head back into the bathroom but Nic grabs my arm. He looks confused. “Where are you going?”
“To change,” I spit out.
“But why?”
I can feel the tears start to stream down my face. “The look on your face. Like you can’t believe I’m even out here in a bikini. I get it. I know you’ve been with every model and actress in Hollywood. My body must be shocking after that.”
“You’re right. It is a shock.”
“Let go of me, please.” I try to wriggle free but he’s got a hold of my elbow pretty tight.
“No, not until you look at me.”
I try to wipe the tears from my face before I turn to look at him. His eyes are even more resolute. “You, Harper Leigh, have the hottest fucking body I’ve ever seen. And it was a shock. I had no idea what you had going on under those hippie librarian clothes of yours but ever since I saw you that first night, I’ve wanted to find out.”
I feel like I’ve been tossed into an ocean and I’m being battered around in the tumultuous waves of emotion. Did he just say I had a hot body? He might have even said it was the hottest body he’d ever seen. Seriously?
“Would you repeat that?”
He laughs. “I’ve been thinking about what’s going on under your hippie librarian clothes since the first night I met you.”
“No, the first part.”
He drops my arm and takes a step back. He slowly looks me up and down taking in every inch of my body.
