I'm Yours (Bold As Love 2)

The cool water chills my bones at first. I come up for air, just as Jake jumps in next to me. He comes up with a smile. This was thrilling. “Come here,” he says pulling me to him. I wrap my legs around him and my arms around his neck.

“God, I love you,” I tell him. I give him a kiss. Minutes later, we come up for air. I give him an evil grin and dunk him. I swim off as fast as I can, but Jake grabbed my leg. I scream, swallowing water as my head goes under. Jake’s big hands pull me up and holds me tightly against him. “That was not a smart move, Sweetness.”

“What are you going to do about it,” I challenge as he walks up backwards to the steps on the shallow end.

He smirks. “Oh, I’m going to make you pay. And after I do, Sweetness, you’ll think twice next time.” He sits on the second to last steps, keeping us in the water. My legs are wrapped around him and my hands rest on the back of his neck.

Jake takes my neck and brings my lips to his. I’m caught up in the kiss that it catches me completely off guard when I feel his fingers inside of me. My moan is muffled by his tongue. His fingers move faster and I squirm against him. “Let’s go inside,” I plead as Jake’s hot tongue moves down my neck. He stands and I hold on to him. His fingers and his tongue don’t stop as he carries me upstairs where we make love.

We finally fell asleep around three so when my dad calls me at nine, it is way too early. “Hello,” I yawn into the phone.

“Hey, honey. I didn’t mean to wake you. I just wanted to check in.”

“Everything’s fine Dad.”

“That’s great. Sleep well?”

I look over at a sleeping Jake. “Sure did.”

“Good. Well, I’ll talk to you later honey. I love you.”

“I love you too, Dad.”

I hang up and place my phone back on the nightstand. I look over at Jake and smile. I gently rest my head on his shoulder and my hand on his chest. One of his hands move to rest on my hips. The rise and fall of his chest combined with the sound of his heartbeat lull me back to sleep.

When I next awake, the warmth of Jake’s body is gone. My eyes pop open and I call out his name, but get no answer. I throw the covers back and wish I had brought my bag up here. The aroma of bacon meets me at the top of the stairs. I tiptoe down, hoping to pass him on my way to the living room. That didn’t happen due to a creak the last step. He turns around and smiles when he sees me.

“Decided to tempt me again, huh?”

I giggle and walk into the living room, calling over my shoulder, “Nope. Just didn’t have anything to wear.” I open my bag and find a loose plain white tee, underwear, and pink pajama shorts. I slip them on. I walk back into the kitchen to a shirtless Jake. He’s standing at the stove, flipping eggs. I wrap my arms around his waist and kiss the place between his shoulders. “Good morning Sweetness,” he greets.

“Good morning. Breakfast smells good, even though it’s time for lunch,” I tease.

“It would have been cooked earlier, but this wonderful, beautiful girl kept me up until late into the night.”

I smile and move to sit atop of the counter in front of the attached bar. “I do believe it was you who kept coming to me,” I say.

He chuckles. “You didn’t resist.”

“Why would I,” I ask. He doesn’t answer. Instead he scoops the eggs onto two plates and does the same with strips of bacon. Next, he walks to pull biscuits out of the oven. He places one on each of our plates.

I hop down and walk to the other side to take a seat at the bar. Jake places a plate in front of me and one in front of the seat beside me. “Milk or OJ,” he asks opening the fridge.

“OJ.” He pours us both a glass before taking his seat beside me. “This is good. Thanks love,” I tell him.

“I am one of the world’s top chefs,” he lies.

I laugh. “What’s on the schedule,” I ask curious.

He turns towards me just a little and says, “Well, we can go to town and explore a few places or we can stay here and pretend we are the only people on earth.”

“Option number two,” I say, “Maybe we can go see the town before we leave tomorrow. Hey, I have an idea.”

“What?”

“Let’s be nudists for a day.”

“Nudists?” I nod. “I can barely keep my hands off of you when you are fully clothed and now you want to walk around naked all day?”
