Romance

After a wonderful night of steamed lobster, beers, and christening of every piece of furniture in the cabin, Teagan and I slept in late. Even when we woke, I moved into his arms and we smiled at each other. We lay there for a long time, enjoying the complete silence of the island. I couldn’t remember it being so quiet out there. The buzz of the city was long gone, and I could tell Teagan was enjoying the peace as much as I was.

I heard a large group of people approaching the cabin, and Teagan lifted an eyebrow at the noise.

“It’s probably just a bunch of hikers. People don’t really care about trespassers here. Everyone is going somewhere on the island,” I said.

Just then, I heard the door open and the screen door slam shut, and all I heard were female voices. Wait... Oh my God. I heard Kelly first then Amanda and they were coming up the stairs singing, “Lizzie, Lizzie, baby.” I shot straight up and pulled the sheet up over my naked chest. I looked over at Teagan and he looked amused.

When they got to the doorway, they looked in and I could tell they were going to immediately pounce on the bed. When they were startled by Teagan, they immediately backed up. I smiled at them. “Hey, girls. Long time, no see! I can’t believe you’re here,” I exclaimed.

“Uh, hey, Lizzie. Girls, let’s go downstairs and give Lizzie a few minutes to get dressed,” Amanda said as she cocked an eyebrow at me.

My eyes snapped back to Teagan and he was still smiling at me.

“Your girlfriends, I take it?” He laughed.

“Oh God. Teag, I am so sorry,” I said.

He waved his hand, and once the girls were downstairs, he lifted the sheet off his naked body and I watched him walk across the room to his bag to collect some clothes. He stopped to see if I was going to get dressed. His slightly confused look quickly turned to his usual amused smirk.

“Are you checking me out?” he asked.

“Always,” I said unabashedly.

I threw on a robe and jumped off the bed. As I walked downstairs, all I heard was small laughter and murmuring. As I rounded into the kitchen, all my old girlfriends sat at the table with steaming mugs of coffee in their hands. Kelly pointed to an empty chair in front of a coffee cup and said, “Sit.” She was fierce. Another red head in the crowd and this could get surly.

“Spill,” they all said at once.

I shrugged my shoulders.

“His name is Teagan. He’s here from Ireland for the summer. We met when he first got here and we’re really close friends,” I said, looking down at my perfectly made cup of coffee with sugar and cream and caramel drizzled over it.

I looked up to smile, and all their faces were blank. Kelly’s mouth was wide open.

“Lizzie. That,” she said as she pointed up to the bedroom, “is not just close friends.”

I sighed.

“Girls, it
