When Ben Hickam awoke the following morning, Summer was already in the shower. He blinked himself to alertness, trying to remember everything that happened the night before, but it was an incredibly erotic blur. He vaguely remembered the passionate lovemaking, and knew that it was the best sex he’d ever had, but he couldn’t actually visualize a particular moment of it.

“Damn,” he said to himself, “she may be more woman than I can handle.”

He thought about that for a moment, then shook his head. He threw off the covers and was surprised to discover just how sweaty he was, but he knew that good sex would do that to him. He was just about to get up off the bed when Summer came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel. She saw him awake and came straight to him, grabbed his face with both hands and kissed him.

“Good morning, baby,” she said. “Did you sleep well?”

“Like a bloody rock,” he said. “Good heavens, woman, you must have worn me out.”

She giggled. “Well, don’t worry, you gave as good as you got. Baby, I haven’t been that satisfied in years. Maybe never, now that I think about it.” She kissed him again, then dropped the towel and began putting on her clothes.

Hickam stared at her. “You are the most beautiful thing I've ever seen,” he said. “Am I dreaming? Are you real?”

She turned her head and smiled at him. “I'm real, babe,” she said. “Hey, you better get moving. What time did you say that appointment was? Nine o’clock?”

He looked confused for a second, then realization dawned. He must’ve told her about Morton coming over, but he vaguely remembered telling her about the plan to merge their two companies, so that was all right.

“Heavens, yes,” he said. “I'll shower quickly and then we could go down for some breakfast.” He hesitated for a second. “Will you be staying today?”

She gave him her thousand-watt smile again. “Well, you did ask me to,” she said. “Remember? You said I could stay with you for a few days?”

“Yes, of course,” he said. “We should probably go and get some of your things, after my meeting.”

“No need,” she said. “They have a lovely clothing boutique down on the main floor. I thought I might just buy a few things this morning.” She looked up at him. “Or did you want me to leave for a while? While you have your meeting?”

“Oh, no, no,” he said. “Let me shower and then we can have breakfast and do a bit of shopping.” He got off the bed and pulled some clothes out of his open suitcase, then walked into the shower.

By the time he came out, Summer was back in the dress she had worn the day before, and they went down to the restaurant for breakfast. Summer contented herself with coffee and a cinnamon roll while Hickam went for an American breakfast of ham and eggs. As soon as they were finished, they walked hand
