ZACK

I splashed cold water on my face, looked at myself in the mirror.

“Get control of yourself, soldier. You’re weak. Weak.” I made a fist, wanting to smash the glass momentarily.

Fuck.

For a moment, a surge of rage went through me. I was catching feelings over some random girl I’d only just met. What the hell was wrong with me?

I knew what I needed to do. Get dressed. Get the fuck out of Dodge.

Forget the girl, forget her name, her face…

Forget what it felt like when you slid into her, when she gripped you so tight that you felt like you were going to explode. Forget the way her body felt against yours, her lips, the look in her wide eyes…

Christ.

I shook my head and pulled on my clothes, trying not to let my mind get the best of me. I closed my eyes and stood in the bathroom, taking some deep, calming breaths.

When you open the door, just leave and walk right out and don’t look back. Don’t make conversation, nothing.

This is bad news, and you need to leave before…

Before what?

What the hell am I so afraid of?

She’s not the fucking Taliban, she’s not Isis, she’s just some girl.

But right now I felt like I’d rather have been in combat facing a hundred angry terrorists, then standing in this little apartment with the girl waiting for me.

Because if I had to look into her eyes, I was going to crack up. I was going to want to stay.

And that was simply unacceptable.

That would blow the entire operation.

I opened the door and walked out into the apartment, ready to head for the door. And then I saw her, standing there with her shirt on hanging down to her thighs, and she wore nothing beneath it.

And she was looking out the window, not staring at me, not looking to me or asking anything of me.

“It’s so beautiful out tonight,” she said.

The moment I heard her voice, I knew that I was going to stay. Just for the evening, and then I’d leave tomorrow morning for good.

“It’s a full moon,” I said, as I came out.

She turned and gave a little smile, and for a second in profile I thought she was the most beautiful creature I’d ever come across in all my life.

“I’m going to freshen up,” she said, turning around and facing me. “Are you…are you going to—“

“I was thinking I might crash…”

We both spoke over one another and then stopped talking at the same moment.

After an awkward moment, she laughed. “Do you…do you want to stay the night?”

I felt my stomach tighten a little.

Fuck, I was getting hard again. This was such bad news. This chick was deceptively fuckable, but worse yet—I wanted to hold her.

“Yeah, I might stay if that’s not a problem. I’m tired as hell.”

She shrugged but I could see she was happy, her eyes brightened. “Well, like I said, I’m going to freshen up. But feel free to turn the TV on or get into…” she turned red.
