Chapter Ten

“Left foot—green!” Alice, one of the camp counselors, called out.

Elissa laughed. “It’s physically impossible,” she said as she tried to slide her left foot across the sheet of plastic on the carpeted floor.

Tiffany beat her to the plate-sized spot of color closest to her. Elissa already had her right foot and right hand pressing against other colored spots. Cole, through circumstances she hadn’t quite understood, was also a player on her mat, along with Greg.

“Try this,” Cole said. “I’ll move back one spot and you can slide under me to the corner one.”

She glanced at him, then at the distance. “I don’t think my legs are that long.”

“Try it,” Tiffany said happily. “Cole can put his arm around your waist and hold you up if you start to fall. He always does that with me.”

Elissa did as her husband and the preteen suggested. Amid squeals and giggles, she found the green spot and balanced precariously.

Outside, rain from the unexpected storm pounded against the windows. According to the weather report, sunshine would greet them in the morning, but for tonight, everyone was playing inside the lodge.

Elissa was thrilled with the change in plans. She had a feeling that the original schedule for a cookout and campfire sing-along would have kept her apart from Cole. Since their walk that afternoon, he’d been avoiding her, going so far as to wait for her to seat herself at dinner, and then choosing a table on the opposite side of the room.

Had she upset him that much? If she had, was it a good thing or a bad thing?

Not that it mattered, she thought happily as Alice called, “Right hand—red!”

Elissa bent over and slid her right hand to a red spot.

“Great,” Cole muttered, and stretched over her. “Can you move a little?” he asked.

“Sure.” She leaned to her left, bringing her hip in contact with his stomach. A shiver rippled through her, nearly upsetting her balance.

Greg dived under Elissa and claimed a red disk for himself. On the mat next to them, Millie gave a shriek of laughter and collapsed to the floor, bringing the other three players with her. Jeff, her husband, pulled her close and kissed her soundly.

“You never were much good at this sort of thing, were you?”

Millie patted his face affectionately. “I’m unbeatable at board games, so I don’t mind.”

“I don’t, either.”

Elissa was so caught up in their display of love that she twisted a little too far. Her bare right foot slipped.

“No, you don’t,” Cole muttered, holding her around the waist. “If you go down, we all go down.”

“Greg, look out,” Elissa called as she started to wobble.

The boy rolled off the mat. As he did so, he bumped into Tiffany, who fell heavily against Cole, who released Elissa. They tumbled into a heap of arms and legs.

Somehow Elissa found herself lying against Cole’s chest, her thighs nestled against his. Unfamiliar heat poured through her, making her want to squirm closer. The need was so powerful, only the crowd around them kept her from doing so.
