Chapter 6

We had planned a “date” after one of his hockey games. After he snuck me into the locker room and made me cum. The time comes fast and Z is over the moon for me. “This is unprecedented, you know!”

“God, you make it sound like he suddenly became the Governor of Massachusetts.”

I’m in jeans and a simple t-shirt. In ten minutes, Duke should come to get me.

“Well, I’ve never heard of Duke taking ANYONE out on a date.”

“Well, we aren’t exactly dating…I think.” I frown, the lines are starting to blur and I’ve been avoiding confronting it.

“Summer,” Z says as she squeezed my shoulder and shook me. “Enjoy this, relish it and, for fuck’s sake, use this opportunity to bang him again.”

Duke arrives exactly on time. Dressed in a t-shirt and flannel. He has rolled his sleeves to reveal his thick forearms. Grinning, he guides me to his truck and we are off.

“You aren’t going to tell me where we are going?” I ask.

“Nope.” He winks with a grin. We argue playfully about music and I discover more secrets about him. Unearthing little facts like he likes pop music and that he hates the new country music. What blows my mind the most is that he grew up on a ranch in Texas and that he worked hard to get rid of his slight drawl before arriving at Ravenwood.

“Why?” I ask.

“Because I don’t like people knowing that much about me, plus you know how it is here.”

“Why are you letting me?”

“I want to,” he says simply.

We arrive at a seaside town, the harbor and classic cape lighthouse seen from the main strip. Boats move in and out of the harbor and Duke leads me to a restaurant right on the beach.

It’s the kind of restaurant that has their menus laminated. The beer options are simple and you know the food is going to be good. The smell of the sea breezes through the windows and locals hover around their favorite spots.

Duke gets us sandwiches and we settle in the outdoor seats that overlook the sea.

“When I first came to Ravenwood, it was the first time I’d ever touched the ocean,” he says, as we take a bite of our food.

My head snaps at him in surprise. “Are you serious?”

Grinning, he nods, “Yeah, serious. I’d seen it, but for whatever reason, I never had time to actually put my toe in it.”

“Did you not travel much?” I ask.

Duke shakes his head, “We did, but it was related to business, moving livestock, or visiting a family member that turned into a business meeting. I grew up on a ranch. It’s not a small one, so working all the time was a given. But I didn’t want to work on the ranch.”

“Did you do anything fun?” I ask.

“Played hockey in high school. Made myself the best.” He shrugs, “But the moment I got a sports scholarship to Ravenwood, it was my ticket out.”

We continue to eat our meal and it’s easy to relax.
