Chapter Eight

Camille

The truck door slamming outside had Camille skittering across the kitchen to get the plates on the table before Jon ruined the surprise. Though she knew from her med school classes that there was nothing romantic about a heart skipping a beat, she couldn’t deny that her own heart currently felt like it stuttered inside her chest with nerves and excitement.

The past three weeks with Jon had been amazing. They laughed. They read books together. They watched movies, all five of the DVDs they had in the cabin, over and over again. They worked outside together, went hiking together. He taught her how to defend herself, and she used the close proximity required during the lessons to memorize the hard lines of his body. It was everything Camille had ever dreamed of when she imagined what it would be like to find the man she wanted to spend forever with.

But Jon wasn’t budging. He kept everything very above board, no matter how she tried to tempt him. Camille knew she was completely inept at flirting or seduction, she’d never had the reason to even try before. But that didn’t mean she would give up trying. She cut an extra inch off every pair of shorts Sophie had packed for her; refused to wear a bra. She walked around in a towel after her shower, and had only been sleeping in a T-shirt each night as she laid next to Jon. But still the man refused to even hold her hand.

Maybe she misread the whole thing. Perhaps he wasn’t really attracted to her at all, maybe the erection she saw and felt each morning could simply be chalked up to morning wood. But then, why did she occasionally still hear him mumble her name in his sleep? Maybe he just had an overdeveloped hero complex and she was just his latest damsel in distress. The thought soured her stomach.

Either way, she had decided to stop trying to seduce him. It wasn’t working, because she didn’t have a goddamn clue what she was doing. Instead, she was going to try another tact; complete brutal honesty which would be aided by the two bottles of wine she found in the pantry when she had been cleaning it out earlier.

Just as she slid the two glasses filled with red liquid onto the table, the door swung open and Jon came striding through.

“What’s all this?” Jon’s eyes swept the room, taking everything in. The table was set for a dinner for two. The wine. And finally, Camille standing next to his chair, in a short pink sundress. His gaze heated her skin as it slowly ran down to her bare feet, and back up to the practically bare shoulders, except for two thin straps holding up her dress. His eyes smoldered with the heat he always tried to keep restrained, but she saw it. He definitely wanted her.

She hadn’t worn dresses yet since they arrived, she was usually more comfortable in shorts and t-shirts. But tonight called for a little something extra.
