Chapter Nine

Sammie drove home on automatic pilot and mulled over everything that happened between them. Her mind raced with ideas about what to do next to keep him interested in her. The power she had over him made her restless with anticipation. If she'd known dating would be this exciting she'd have started years ago.

Her mind dwelled on their physical encounter and the rush she felt as he kissed her with such passion. It was more incredible than watching the most romantic movie ever… because it was happening to her!

She couldn't believe she'd made that comment about the pistol, but she knew they were treading on dangerous ground. She didn't want to ruin what they had by 'going there' when it clearly wasn't the right thing for them to do this early on. Or the right time to do it. Cheesy as that pistol comment was, at least it had worked.

Their spiritual discussion had been sweet, and she loved how strongly Jimmy felt about what he believed. She was still not sure that God was for her even after checking church out that one time she stopped by to use the restroom. And yet she knew that Jimmy would be pleased enough to keep dating her is she found religion, then she'd do anything, even pray to accept Christ.

Not sure how she'd suddenly become obsessed with making Jimmy fall in love with her, she couldn't seem to stop regardless of how irrational and crazy it seemed. Ever since she realized he was James and understood that he didn't recognize or remember her it made her desperate and wanting him.

The thing that didn't make sense to her was why she wanted to torture herself when the relationship couldn't go anywhere. She was supposed to be moving shortly after Christmas, and her orders could always come sooner. If the Army needed her for anything she was at their mercy. It was her job.

And what about the fact that he hated his father's vocation? That reaction he'd had was totally unexpected. Thankfully she'd never told him exactly what she did for work. She just told him she worked on Fort Huachuca. A lot of civilians did. She'd keep letting him think that as long as she was in town. It wouldn't hurt anything.

In the meantime she had to find a way to win James over so he wouldn't care what she did for a living. If she'd known she'd find him again she probably wouldn't have joined the military to begin with. She loved her freedom and was very patriotic, but she could find another way to serve her country. Maybe through a contracted job like Jimmy thought she had, rather than being on active duty.

The reason she'd enlisted in the first place was because she had no one left in the world that cared about her. Now that she'd found Jimmy, things quickly shifted in her mind. And it was crazy because he still didn't know who she was.

She considered asking her
