“I want a s’more.”

James sighed and shifted his gaze from the bag of marshmallows Jake held to his wife. The bonfire party was just getting underway, and while Mark and Nadine skirted the cavorting workers and attempted to pretend they were having a good time, James could tell they were uncomfortable.

He wanted to wait them out a bit longer before separating them, so he decided now was the perfect time to stuff Mandy’s face with marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers. She was – per usual – impatient.

“You see me getting the marshmallows, right?”

Mandy scowled. “Yes.”

“What do you think I’m going to do with them?”

“I thought maybe you wanted to play a kinky game like the time we bought that marshmallow fluff and … .”

Jake cleared his throat. “You two see me standing right here, don’t you?”

“You’re hard to miss,” Mandy shot back as James grinned.

“I don’t need to hear the marshmallow fluff story,” Jake explained. “You’re going to give me nightmares.”

“It’s not like the marshmallow fluff was on an armadillo,” Mandy said, tugging on James’ sleeve. “I really want a s’more.”

“You’re like a whiny kid at a campout,” James muttered. “I will make you a s’more if you do me a favor.”

Mandy waited.

“Go over there and talk to Mark and Nadine,” James instructed. “I want them to feel uncomfortable – but like we’re trying to make them comfortable. Do you think you can do that?”

“I think I was born to do that.”

James dropped a quick kiss on Mandy’s mouth. “I love you, baby. If he tries to touch you when no one is looking … .”

“I’ll kick him in the nuts and call for you,” Mandy finished. “I know the drill.”

“Before you go, where is Ally?” Jake asked, straightening so he could survey the area. Ben managed to enlist almost thirty workers for the bonfire and Ally was lost in a see of gregarious faces.

Mandy pointed to a spot over his shoulder. “She’s learning how to line dance from several of the guys. They love her in that skirt.”

Jake scowled. “Oh, man. Are they hitting on her?”

“It’s just dancing,” Mandy replied. “It’s harmless. She’s having a good time and Mark keeps staring at her legs when her skirt twirls up. Isn’t that what you guys had in mind when you asked us to dress this way?”

“I have something a little different in mind for when we’re done here,” James said. “Although … yeah … Mark does seem fixated on Ally. He seems perfectly fine to let his attention flit between the two of you when you’re around, though.”

“I think I might’ve just been insulted,” Mandy mused.

“Never, baby,” James said, swatting her butt playfully. “I’m just saying he doesn’t seem to have a type. Any woman who is not his wife appears to be fine.”

“Now I know I’ve been insulted.”

“I’ll make sure to kiss your bruised ego when we get back to the cabin tonight,” James promised.

“How come you’re not over there learning how to line dance?” Jake asked, a pained expression on his face as he watched one of the workers move in closer to Ally.
