The noise of the shower brings me back to reality and I finally have a second to take it all in. I’m not a virgin anymore. I can’t believe I’ve had sex … and with an enigmatic, smart, alluring stranger, but a stranger nonetheless. Damn; I wish I could call Erik and Orie or text them—something! They must be dying. I can’t even begin to imagine the kind of stories they’re concocting in their heads. None of which could possibly come close to reality.

I gingerly move out of bed, wrapping the sheet around my body to cover my nudity, and I’m happy to see that the discomfort isn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I look back on the bed and see the small drops of blood on the sheets, more evidence that I’m no longer a virgin. Right there, plain as day for everyone to see. And by everyone, I mean him.

I look around for a clean set of sheets, hoping I will find something before he gets out of the shower. My search takes me to the giant armoire in the living area. The view holds me captive for a moment. In the light of day, it is bewitching. We have a large deck that sits on the white sand beach. It is a cloudless day and the sea is so calm it looks like glass. I actually can’t wait to get in and do some snorkeling. Knee deep, of course.

I open the armoire and am happy to find many sets of clean sheets. The resort is obviously well prepared, and I am so thankful for it. I hurry back to the bedroom and almost trip over myself when I see Clayton standing there with a white towel wrapped around his narrow waist. His golden skin is a mouth-watering contrast to the towel, his broad chest still glistens with drops of water, and it’s all I can do to keep my mouth from popping open in utter lust.

He brushes his wet hair away from his forehead, looks toward the bed, then back at me. My flush of embarrassment is instant.

“Let me take that.”

I think my toes even blush.

“I’ve got it,” I croak out.

“Sophie, I’ll take care of it. Take a shower, relax.” He walks toward me. I step back, holding the sheets in front of me like a shield.

“I’ve got this.” It’s my blood! I shout to myself. My innocence, lost on the bed!

“No.” He reaches me, shiny with water and so damn handsome that I’m practically limp, and takes the sheets from me. “Take your time, sweetheart. Let me do this.” Oh. There’s another endearment. Sweetheart. God, I love hearing it.

“I’m responsible for that anyway,” he adds.

My eyes close and I lean against the wall, wishing I could just spontaneously combust. I rush past him into the bathroom and shut the door. Once safely inside, I let out a sigh of relief. Lord almighty, my wires get crossed when I’m around him.

I let the sheet fall to the ground and turn to look at myself in the mirror.
