He took my silence about it as an affirmation and started chanting and dancing around the room, “Abby thinks my crooked smile is hot. H-O-T. Hot.” The last word was whispered in extremely close proximity to my ear, and it sent a chill down my spine.

 

I forced myself to glare in his direction and say, “You’re such a child.” Despite my words, I couldn’t tear my eyes away from him. When I looked at him, all I could think of was mounting him and riding him to completion. My mouth fell open as I visualized myself climbing on top of him and taking his thick cock deep inside me. I knew his dick was huge because I had felt it pressing urgently into my back in the restroom at the museum. Besides, he was sure to be impressively hung, since Seth was. Realization dawned on me then that I technically knew what Sam looked like naked. The mental image surfaced and made me damp. Sam’s eyes travelled to my mouth and stayed there as I nervously licked my lips.

 

We stood there, eyes locked, for several seconds. I hoped that he couldn’t sense the horny turn that my thoughts had taken, even though he had to feel the sexual tension that was zinging between us. Finally, he spoke. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to bother you.” Then he turned and darted outside.

 

I leaned back against the wall and released the breath that I didn’t realize I had been holding. What the hell is wrong with me? I wondered, placing a cool hand on my forehead. I have finally found a handsome, sweet, wonderful man, and I have the hots for his pig of a brother.

 

It has to just be his similarities to Seth, I told myself. Seth is so perfect, and Sam looks just like him. Of course it’s confusing. Even the chickipoo that looks like a Barbie doll out there is attracted to both of them. I snorted, remembering just how attracted and willing she was. At least I wasn’t that bad.

 

I took a few deep, calming breaths. It all made sense when I thought it through. They were both physically attractive. Scratch that, they were both physically perfect. Seth was the one who was sweet, funny, kind, and thoughtful, though. He was the one I cared about, not Sam.

 

The reaction I had to Sam was purely physical, and I had a strong physical reaction to Seth as well. Beyond the physical, though, I had real feelings for Seth.

 

Feeling renewed, I went back outside. I found Seth, and we walked down the path to the bluff overlooking the lake and marina. Seth stood behind me with his strong arms wrapped around me. I felt safe and happy in his embrace, and I staunchly ignored the tingling feeling deep down in the pit of my stomach that told me Sam was watching us.

Chapter 17

 

It was still early afternoon when we left the party. I had a few hours before girls’ night with Courtney would begin, so I wanted to spend that time with Seth. I’d been dying to see the pole barn where he builds his boats, so I asked him to take me there.

 

He seemed surprised, but delighted by the request. We drove there in silence, holding hands. Seth would occasionally look over and smile at me, and I would grin back at him, perfectly content.

 

The building was even bigger than it had looked from Seth’s camper. I don’t know what I had been expecting to see, but it wasn’t what I found when we entered the huge structure.

 

The enormous wooden boat in the center of the room was breathtaking. I stared at it in awe that Seth was able to build something so impressive. I had imagined that he made canoe-like boats, not anything as grand as this behemoth.

 

The building was pristine, with a freshly swept floor and each tool in its spot. It was clear from looking around that Seth took great care and pride in his work, and he had every reason to.

 

“This is amazing!” I exclaimed, walking around the stern. “I had no idea.”

 

He looked truly happy at my compliment. “Did you think I spent my time making makeshift skiffs?”

 

“No, but I had no idea how grand your boats are. May I?” I asked, indicating the ladder that led up to the hull.

 

“Of course, but she’s not finished,” he replied. I had already kicked off my jeweled sandals and scrambled up, so he followed me.

 

I smoothed my hand along the glossy side of the vessel. “People must be lined up wanting to purchase one of your boats.”

 

“There is a bit of a waiting list.” He looked down, seeming slightly embarrassed.

 

I sensed there was more, so I asked, “How long is a bit?”

 

“About two years.” He beamed at me, and his beautiful, perfectly straight smile nearly knocked me on my butt. He went on, “But I don’t compromise quality. If people want one of my boats, then they have to wait for it.”

 

“I bet they do, too.” I grinned back at him.

 

He nodded. “I’ve had people try to bribe me to rush or to go to the front of the line, but I don’t want any part of that. It wouldn’t be fair to the people who have waited.”

 

This man was good, solid, kind, fair, gorgeous, smart, and sweet, and I wanted him in the worst way. I tried to put on my sexy voice as I said huskily, “This boat needs to be broken in.”

 

“She’s not quite ready to put in the water,” he answered, misunderstanding my meaning.

 

I decided that I would have to be more direct, so I removed my wide belt and unzipped the floral dress that I had borrowed from Courtney. My breasts had been straining for freedom all day, and they spilled out as the dress pooled at my bare feet. I slipped out of my panties and laid back on the long bow, offering my naked body to Seth.

 

He licked his lips and then sprang into action. He quickly ripped the golf shirt over his head. In one smooth move, he shed himself of his khakis and boxers. Then he joined me on the ship’s bow. We ran our hands over each other as our tongues tangled. I was almost manic in my hunger for him.

 

We melted together, our bodies completely entwined. He was hard, pressing into my belly. It wasn’t nearly enough, so I reached my hand down between us and guided him to me. He groaned as he slid inside me. I left my hand between us, touching us both as he pumped over me. My other hand reached around to grab his ass, pulling him into me harder.

 

I cried out as I came. Pleasure pulsed through me. As I squeezed, Seth buried his head into my shoulder. His thrusts quickened until he released with a loud groan.

 

We stayed that way for a while. Seth was still inside me as I rubbed a hand lightly over his back. “You’re amazing,” he said, nuzzling into my neck.

 

I was happy. There was no other word for it. I didn’t recall ever having felt so complete, so satisfied. “I love you.” The words bubbled out before I had a chance to think through voicing them out loud.

 

Seth stiffened, and I immediately regretted saying it. He stayed frozen for a while, but I felt him emotionally disconnect. Then he slipped out of me and said, “We should probably get going. You don’t want to be late for girls’ night.” He grabbed his clothes and went down the ladder.

 

I had a burning lump in my throat. I felt like crying, but was afraid I wouldn’t be able to stop, once I started. How could I have proclaimed my love so soon?

 

I sat there for a while, stunned, and then I slowly put on my clothes and went to find Seth. He was sitting in the Jeep waiting for me. We didn’t talk the whole way back to my house. When we arrived, he turned to me and said a brisk, “Take care.”

 

I couldn’t even respond. I nodded and quickly exited his vehicle, focusing on not allowing the tears to start flowing. As I walked up the sidewalk to my front door, a sob escaped, but I didn’t have to worry about him hearing it because he was already backing out of my driveway.

Chapter 18

 

“How could I have said something so stupid?” I asked, plunking my head down on the table for the umpteenth time.

 

“Telling someone that you love them isn’t stupid.” Courtney defended me, as she always did.

 

“It sure feels that way. What if I scared him off? What if he doesn’t want to see me again?” I moaned as I checked my phone again, sighing at its blank face staring back at me, mocking me.

 

“If those three little words scared him off, then he doesn’t deserve you, anyway.” At
