True to Wade’s word, within three minutes we’d arrived on his porch in front of the door we’d exited to begin our College Station adventure only hours before. It felt like a lifetime ago. Already, much had changed. He put me down only long enough to unlock the door using the same hidden key we’d used, before picking me up again. He carried me to the back bedroom, his mouth connected to mine the entire time. He kicked the door closed, not to be bothered with lights, or even words for that matter.
When he placed me on my feet and immediately peeled his T-shirt off, I knew it was decision time. His pale, but well-toned chest stood in contrast to his less pale, but no less toned arms. My mouth watered. When he reached for the button of his perfectly molded Wranglers, his eyes met mine in question, but I’d decided.
His hands paused, his eyes growing wide as I stepped back and reached for my belt, unbuckling it easily. It fell to the carpet below with a soft thump. I took in a deep breath and moved to pull Corynne’s dress over my head, but Wade closed the gap between our bodies to stop me.
“Here, let me.”
Deliciously, he pulled one sleeve off, kissing my bare shoulder, before repeating the process with the other. The dress fell in a whoosh and pooled at my feet, sending goose bumps dancing across my flesh, despite the warm night. Given my lack of curves, a bra with that style of dress hadn’t been necessary. At Corynne’s insistence, I’d worn only a scrap by way of panties, a birthday gift from my colorful best friend that I’d kept hidden away like a dirty little secret. I found myself very bare, very quickly.
Wade shifted, allowing me only enough space to step out of the dress, but when I bent to take off my boots, he stopped me. Standing back up, I found myself face-to-face with a very naked Wade, whose skin looked almost metallic, reflecting the moonlight pouring through the open window.
“What? You’re drinking in my body as if you’ve never seen a naked girl before.” With liquid courage surging through my veins, I put my hands on my hips, pushing away the shy, sheltered girl I was back home. I wanted to feel, not think.
“Well, maybe I haven’t.” He wiggled his brows. A wide, sexy grin spread across his face when I bit my bottom lip. “Why are you staring at me like you’ve never seen a naked man before?” He mimicked my position and I stifled a laugh.
“Well… ” I swallowed, even though my mouth was the Sahara Desert. “Maybe I haven’t.” He knew as well as I did there was no maybe about it, but as they say, there’s a first time for everything, especially this night.
“Lynn, I have to ask.” He looked at the floor as one of his hands started kneading the thick muscles at the base of his skull. “What
