Emily
Emily watched Logan’s deep, dark eyes as he dipped toward her one more time for a warm, chaste kiss on her lips before taking her hand and walking her to her cabana. They didn’t speak. They didn’t need to. The moment was too sweet to put into words. She was still half floating on air as she lay on her bed and tossed and turned most of the night. She was amazed that he had managed to keep the pace of their first kiss perfectly tense and innocent at the same time. He made it sweet and exciting without being demanding or pushy. It was perfect. He was perfect.
The next day, the team had been given free time. She was going to stick around the resort and get more beach time in while the others were heading into Santa Barbara for some sightseeing. Emily tried not to wonder when she would see Logan again. After all, he was a busy man, and having expectations was a good way to disappoint herself before anything even really began between them. She grabbed an early breakfast and said goodbye to the executives as they got on the resort’s shuttle bus for a trip to town.
Now that she didn’t live in Los Angeles anymore, beach time was harder and harder to come by, so it was the perfect way to distract herself. From her research, Oregon coasts were breathtaking, but in much different ways. Settled into her lounge chair a few feet from the water, Emily applied her sunscreen and put the large, floppy straw hat on her head as she leaned back and closed her eyes.
She couldn’t help but notice that Logan wasn’t with the others in the lobby as she had watched them depart earlier and that he hadn’t gotten on the shuttle bus either. She glanced over at his cabana, and seeing that it was closed suddenly made her anxious. She wondered if he was avoiding her because he regretted kissing her. What if he had left early to avoid seeing her in the lobby, or maybe he was still in bed, hoping she would be gone when he got out. These thoughts made it hard for her to relax, but she had slept little that night and sitting in the lounge chair under soft sun rays was so comfortable that she dozed off. The next thing she knew, a dark shadow had passed over her head. She hadn’t realized that she had fallen asleep until his presence startled her awake.
“You know,” a deep voice sent shivers straight to her toes, “you’re an awfully cute sleeper.”
She looked up and smiled. “Who’s the sleeper here?” she teased. “You were the last one to wake up.”
“That’s actually your fault. You kiss me like you did last night and then you expect me to fall asleep? I couldn’t close my eyes until 5:00 a.m.”
She felt herself blush at his words, and when he winked at her, she thought she might turn the color of a tomato permanently.
