His abs are made of corrugated steel. I’m sure of it.

I remember watching him on the beach one time years ago, throwing a football around with friends. I was, as usual, wearing a boy-short tankini. Something that covered enough of me that I didn’t need a Brazilian wax or to worry about my slightly waffly butt hanging out. Back in those days I was so insecure about my body, like all young women are. I wish I could go back in time and throttle myself.

But Dylan—he was always perfect. He’s kept in shape over the years, his arms still roped with muscle, his chest broad, his shoulders amazing. I wasn’t lying to him earlier when I said his clothes look good. The way his shirt fits him makes his muscular chest and back look like those of a marble statue. His shorts are loose, but that doesn’t mean I’m not aware of the enticing bulge in the front, or his gorgeous, tight ass. And now that he’s sitting down, I’m getting an eyeful of his thigh muscles, which are out of this world.

As I’m staring at him he turns towards me. The light hits him in the most amazing way, making his eyes glow bright as he looks into mine.

I’ve wanted to kiss him so many times in the last hour. Wanted to touch him, to do the things I’ve been craving since I first laid eyes on him. I want to take Katherine’s advice and forget about the past.

But this is good, too. Sitting here like this with him, talking like old friends. This is better than some ill-conceived fling that I might regret. We shouldn’t do something stupid, anyhow. He’s just broken up with someone and me, I’m probably just a little lonely. I keep reminding myself that I really need is a friend, and he’s turned out to be exactly that. A good friend. Someone who listens to me, who jokes with me. He’s considerate and kind, and I really like this thing we have going.

So no, I’m not going to kiss him, regardless of how much my body’s begging me to.

Okay, this is the most frustrating friendship in history.

“I guess I should head home,” I tell him, protecting myself from further fantasies. “I’m still a little tired from the time change.”

“Sure,” he replies. But he’s not moving; he’s still looking into my eyes.

Risking everything, his right hand slips up and pushes a strand of my hair away from my shoulder. My strap falls down, revealing bare skin.

I hear him inhale a gasp that sounds an awful lot like pleasure, and I know I’m in trouble, so I turn away and pull the strap up. My core pulses with need as I stare into the distance, juggling all the reasons that I shouldn’t have sex with Dylan. But I don’t need to juggle. I know why I can’t do it. Things have been going so well. I want to like him, but I also want him to prove that he’s changed.
