Chapter 8

Delene Younger was pounding on Marti’s door by the time she got to the house from the barn.

“You know, you could just check to see if it’s locked rather than trying to knock it down.”

Delene whirled around and slapped her hand to her chest. “Girl! You almost gave me a heart attack.”

“What are you doing here? We just saw each other a couple of hours ago.”

Delene jabbed her finger toward Marti. “You might fool Tina with that I fell asleep on him and nothing happened story, but not me. I know you better than that. If that was the honest truth, you wouldn’t have picked at your salad, hardly reacted when I said I thought I might shave my head for summer, and then hurried off as soon as you could. Something happened with Dr. Hottie.”

Marti sighed and opened the unlocked front door. “Come on in. Want something to drink?”

Delene followed Marti to the kitchen.

“Got a Diet Coke?”

Marti lifted an eyebrow. “Need you ask?”

She opened the refrigerator and pulled out a couple of Diet Cokes and joined Delene at the kitchen table.

“So,” Delene said as she popped the tab on the can. “What happened?”

“Everything I told you was true. I swear.”

“Uh-huh. But you didn’t tell us everything.”

“Need a glass for your Coke?”

Delene snorted. “You really don’t want to say, do you?” Then she gasped. “You didn’t sleep with him, did you? On a first date? That is so not like you.”

“Right. We had a great toss on the hay after watching Princess give birth. Nothing sexier than amniotic fluid, a wet, slightly smelling newborn, and watching a new mother lick the afterbirth. I mean, who wouldn’t want to strip and screw after that?”

Delene’s loud, deep laugh echoed around the kitchen. “You do have a point.”

Marti smiled and gave in. Delene wasn’t just one of her best friends. They’d been together since first grade.

“Fine. He kissed me.”

Delene shrugged. “I know. You told us that at lunch today.”

“I might not have been completely honest at lunch.”

Delene leaned forward. “Really? So there was kissing going on when I saw you two cuddled on the patio.”

“Not there, well, there too, but mostly when we got to my house. The first kiss was sweet. Soft. Really just barely a kiss. But then…ohmigod, he backed me into my door and kissed me like a starving man finding a loaf of bread. It wiped my mind of any thoughts but how to get closer to him.” She looked at Delene. “And the only way we could be closer would have been skin to skin. It was like my soul wanted to climb inside him. It was the most erotic, sensual kiss I’ve ever had.”

“Better than the ex?”

“Ha. No comparison. If he hadn’t been holding me against my door with his body, I probably would have melted in puddle of begging lust. I swear. I was thinking about inviting him in—and yes, I know I have never gone to bed with a guy on the first date—when Pedro rode up and told me about Princess in labor.
