Chapter Four

Ben

I wake up, roll over, and my hand lands on a pillow and the big empty space next to me. Allie should have been here with me, but of course, I don't want to pressure her. She's quite a bit younger than I am. I'm thirty-two, and she's twenty-two. I wouldn’t want to take advantage.

But I can’t stop thinking about her. How hot she looked in that red bikini. It made me feel like an animal, seeing the bright red suit on her smooth body. I had to exercise a lot of self-control.

And that kiss. There was something in it that I've never felt before. I want that feeling again. I have to have it again. No kiss has ever made me feel that way. The way her lips lightly explored mine was both reserved and curious. The way she kissed me was an embodiment of her personality.

Allie is mysterious. I've figured out that much. And she's nothing like her friends. I have to get to know her better. I have never in my life thought about a girl the way I think about Allie.

I told them I would send a car for them today, but I'm afraid that she won't come. I am restless and find myself fidgeting. I have work to do, phone calls to return, emails to answer, but I want none of it. This girl is the only thing that's on my mind.

I get out of bed and immediately start tidying my room.

The girls arrive at noon. Of course, I see Tucker and Charlie already up and drinking. Finally, I see Mindy and Kate step aboard. And then there she is, wearing a yellow dress that shows bikini straps going around her slender neck. All my worries about not seeing her again are washed away and replaced with red hot desire.

“Welcome back,” I say to them, but I’m really just addressing Allie.

Mindy gives me a smirk and a wink. I wonder what they talked about last night.

“You guys like jet skis?” Tucker asks them.

“I’ve never been on one,” says Allie.

“Don’t worry,” I tell her. “I’ll go with you. All you have to do is hang on tight.”

She looks at me and then looks away as if she hardly knows me. Doesn't she remember the romantic evening we had? The kiss we shared? The sunset we watched? We made a connection, and I know she felt it, too. I touch her lightly on the shoulder, and I see her face go red. I take it as a good sign.

Over lunch, I have a hard time keeping Tucker and Charlie from drinking too much. “You can’t be drunk if you’re going to be driving the jet skis,” I tell them. “Especially with precious cargo.”

As usual, they don’t want to listen.

“Since when does Ben want to do anything fun?” asks Charlie.

Tucker clears his throat. “Since I killed my brother and replaced him with this way more fun carbon copy.”

Everyone laughs, including me. They are right. I rarely come out to play.
