CHAPTER 4

The following morning I awoke to gorgeous sunshine and smooth, crystal clear blue waters. Amy was in the shower so I stepped out onto the deck to inhale the fresh ocean air. I was nervous about seeing Jake today. I still couldn’t believe what had happened the night before. His hands, his lips! He was all I could think about but I had to remember that we were not the only two people on this ship. I hadn’t spent much time with Amy or any old friends, so today I wanted to catch up. If Jake wanted to see me, he would have to wait until it was convenient for me. I went back into the room and Amy was brushing her hair.

“Sooo…what happened last night?” She sat on the bed, eyes wide, waiting to hang on to my every word.

“All I will say is he is definitely not the same Jake Hunter we knew years ago. We talked before I went to bed and cleared some things up.” I didn’t want to go into any more detail than that. Not yet. I felt that I would be betraying Jake if I did. How silly is that? What am I protecting him from? Maybe I was protecting myself. I wanted to see where things would go with this new, sexier Jake, if anywhere at all.

Amy peered into my eyes, searching. “There is something that you are not telling me, but I’ll let it go, for now.” She winked as she grabbed her purse and opened the door. “I’ll meet you in the dining room when you’re ready. The class breakfast starts in 30 minutes.”

I’d chosen to wear a simple, but pretty, pale blue summer dress and I was just putting the finishing touches on my makeup when I heard a light tapping at the door. Amy must have forgotten her key. “What did you forg…”, as I opened the door Jake stood there leaning against the doorway, catching me totally off guard. Is it possible that this man looks even more gorgeous today than yesterday? His dark good looks were unnerving and I quickly tried to compose myself.

“Good morning Lauren. Did you sleep well?” He had a slight smirk on his face.

I refused to give him the satisfaction of knowing how he had affected me even though I wanted him to take me right then and there. I wasn’t going to let him know that I tossed and turned all night thinking about him.

“Good morning. Yes, I slept very well, thank you. How about you?”

“Like a baby.” Again, that sly little smirk. “I was just getting ready to go to breakfast and thought I would walk over there with you.”

“OK, let me just grab my purse.” I tried to suppress my excitement that Jake actually came to get me for breakfast. Clearly I was on his mind if he was at my door first thing that morning. I didn’t really want breakfast. I lost my appetite the second I saw it was him at the door.
