Chapter 10

Robin

I couldn’t believe he meant it. For two hours James tried teaching me the basics, like how to float and tread water. He had started out looking so confident, but about halfway through, I think he realized I really can’t swim.

“You’d think with your…assets, you’d at least be able to float,” James teased.

I couldn’t believe he just called my breasts assets. “Sorry, they’re boobies, not buoys.”

“Guess that’s why you sink.”

“Does that mean we can stop this lesson before I’m wrinkled from head to toe?” I asked.

“We can’t have that.” James scooped me up into his arms and carried me out of the water.

It felt so good being in his arms again, but that’s all it was. When were on the sand, he put me down. The swim lesson was over, but I hoped it wasn’t the end of our outing. This was the first day on the whole trip that I was actually having fun.

“Since that was a failure, what’s next?” I challenged.

“Wait, I didn’t fail, you did,” he corrected.

I laughed. “I already knew I couldn’t swim. It was you who believed otherwise.”

“Just so you know, I don’t accept failure very well.”

“God, I hope that doesn’t mean we’re going back in the water. If that’s the case, I will assume all responsibility for my lack of swimming ability,” I teased.

“Water activities are off the list.”

“How about horseback riding?” I asked. He hesitated, and I asked, “Unless you don’t know how to ride.”

“I do. It’s…just not something I want to do today.” he replied.

There was something in his gorgeous dark eyes that said there was more to it than that. “So what else would you suggest?”

He smiled. “I’m thinking about a hike and a picnic.”

“Hike?” That does appeal to me. Now if only there also was rock climbing, I’d be in heaven. But I settle for a hike.

“If you follow the beach, about two miles, you’ll come across a path that leads into the woods and to one of the best views around. But I suggest we leave soon, because it’s not something we should be doing in the dark,” James said.

I can think of something I’d like to do in the dark with you.

I couldn’t believe my mind was going there again. This was our first date. Heck, not even a date, really. He had only asked me to spend the day with him. But maybe a picnic turns it into a date? Well, that changed everything, and nothing. It wasn’t like this was going to go anywhere. But was there any reason I couldn’t enjoy myself? That’s why I took a vacation in the first place. I needed to get away, to unwind. Of course, when I planned this trip, I wasn’t thinking about meeting Mr. Sexy and him fucking my brains out. Nothing wrong with a change of plans.

“Earth to Robin?” James teased. “Did my suggestion bore you so much you fell asleep?”

The total opposite. “No. I was just thinking I might need to change first.”

“Good idea. It’ll give me time to have the kitchen pack our lunch.
