She takes in the small kitchen space, the hardwood floor, the large wood beams overhead and stops at the large stone fireplace.
“Use this often, do you?”
“Hey, it gets chilly here at night in the winter,” I reply with a grin. “See, you’d know that if you were from here.”
She sticks her tongue out at me like a little girl, and something inside me stirs, heightening my already raging desire for her.
“I like the place,” she muses, nodding her head. “It’s not not much like you said.”
A sense of relief comes over me. “Well, it’s nothing compared to what I really want to build.”
“And what’s that?” she asks as I walk to the back window.
She sounds very interested as I point out the back at the water which is reflecting the last orange and purple light of the setting sun.
“I’ll tell you all about it from the pool.”
“From the pool?” she asks, sounding surprised.
“Yeah, we can cool off together.”
Jess’ eyes immediately fill with something resembling panic. “Oh, no. I don’t even have a bathing suit.”
I just shrug back at her. “So? Never gone skinny dipping before?”
“Oh, you’ve got to be kidding,” she replies.
I open the back door and start making my way outside, peeling my sticky, sweaty tank-top off and tossing it aside. “Do I look like I’m kidding?” I ask.
I grab my belt buckle and start to undo it. When she hears the sound, Jess lets out a little squeal. “Oh my God, Liam!”
I let my pants drop to the edge of the pool, leaving me just in my briefs as I walk toward the water. I can hear her muter something else under her breath, but it’s too soft for me to make out.
“Come join me!” I call out. “The water’s great this time of day. It’s not heated!”
As I tug my waistband on my briefs down, I hear Jess yelp, “Oh, Jesus!”
I step out of them and into the water. I don’t know if she’s still got her eyes on me, but I hope she does. I like a shy girl, but one with a feisty side is even better.
I wade through the shallow end over to the opposite side and lean back, spreading my arms out against the edge and letting my legs float out in front of me. I can see Jess standing just inside the house, peeking hesitantly out. Her indecision is practically painted across her face.
“What are you waiting for?” I ask her. “The water’s just fine.”
“What am I waiting for?” she scoffs. Christ, look at her cheeks, red as tomatoes from the blush. She’s adorably sexy. She bites her lower lip and twists her left foot up and around her right ankle in a nervous gesture.
She’s thinking about it.
“If I were to do this,” she says. “And that’s a big if—you’re gonna see me take my clothes off!”
“And?” I smirk.
“And that’s…that’s not okay!”
Isn’t it?
“Okay, tell you what,” I say, using my most calming voice. “I’ll close my eyes until you’re fully in the water. How’s that sound?”
Jess gives me an as if look. “You’ll peek.”
“I won’t,” I reply. “I give you my word.”
“Yeah, right. Says the dude.”
“I’m a Texas man,” I tell her. “And when a Texas man gives his word, he keeps it.”
Again, she bites her lower lip softly. She looks away, and a strand of hair falls across her face. It’s the most adorable thing ever, but damn do I want to see her naked right now. I can’t even begin to imagine how incredible that body of hers looks without being hidden by clothes.
“You know what?” she finally says, looking back up at me. “Fine.” She raises a finger at me. “But you better be a man of your word.”
“I am, darling,” I say with a wink. “Don’t you worry.”
Jess does this sort of frown-smile and steps a foot out the door. It’s then that I close my eyes and do my best not to smile.
I hear the sound of fabric hitting the ground, followed by the sound of the zipper of her shorts, and feel a rush of blood to my cock.
And then the sound of water hits my ears. I feel the slight shifting of waves against my chest and hear Jess’s voice. “Okay, you can open your eyes now.”
I do and see her across the pool from me, looking at me like some gorgeous mermaid, eyes fixed on me, so vulnerable and sexy, the top of her tits like two little mounds threatening to expose themselves if she were to just lift herself up even the slightest bit out of the water.
I want to swim right over to her and snatch her into my arms. But I don’t do that. I just keep my eyes fixed on her as I grow harder and harder.
“See? I told you I’m a man of my word,” I grin.
