My entire life, I had never been good at dealing with my own emotions. Not when I was younger, and definitely not now. If anything, serving as a SEAL for so many years had stunted them, pushed them back and made them seem trivial and unimportant.
But seeing Jessie again had changed all of that. Back when we had been together in years past, sometimes dealing with her frequent outbursts and emotions had been tiring to me. It had seemed exhausting just to watch â I had no idea how someone was capable of being so emotional, so open, all of the time without simply breaking down. For a long time, I had wondered if it was a habit that Jessie would grow out of.
After knowing her for more than a few months, though, I realized it wasnât a bad thing at all. It was a strength â she was so comfortable with herself and the way that she felt, she never minded displaying her true self.
And after a while, it became one of the things that I loved most about her. I loved that she was so unafraid to tell me the truth about how she was feeling â it was something that most women seemed to have difficulty with. I loved how brash and loud she was, how she wasnât afraid to throw her head back and belly-laugh in the middle of an argument if I said something stupid and pigheaded.
Which, I had to admit, that I often had.
Now, seeing her again and being with her again, I felt a rush of emotions exploding inside my chest. It was almost scary, like too much all at once. Just seeing the vulnerable look in her soft brown eyes had brought all of those feelings bursting to the surface of my heart in a way that they never had before.
I was filled with something that Iâd always felt around Jessie before, but hadnât ever been able to name.
Ecstasy, pure and simple. The curvy goddess was like a drug to me, and now I knew for sure that there was no way I would ever get my fix.
I drove the Land Rover into the parking lot and Jessie pointed to her car, an older Dodge Neon with a big scratch on the driverâs side door.
âJust there is fine,â she said. She wasnât looking at me â her attention was focused on an invisible spot on the window of the Land Rover â and I felt my stomach twist.
What was going to happen now? Would she see me again?
Would she refuse?
âIâd really like to see you again,â I said finally, nearly choking over the words. Just saying that sentence made me feel uncomfortably vulnerable, but it had to be said.
Jessie had to know.
She made a noncommittal noise as she put her hand on the door of the Land Rover.
âI ...I have to go,â Jessie said finally. Her eyes met mine, causing my heart to do a flip in my chest. Her face was
