Addison

It was a beautiful evening out. It finally felt like spring, and as we drove along the coastal highway a light breeze blew through the windows. The sun was setting, and the reflection on the water made for a picture-perfect evening.

I watched as Cayden drove in silence, only the radio for background noise. “Are you going to tell me where we’re going now? Or do I have to guess?” I smiled as I turned toward him. My dress slid up my thighs slightly and I laughed when Cayden’s jaw ticked.

“You’re doing that on purpose,” he gritted out.

“Doing what?” I grinned bigger as the breeze lifted the hem higher, and I didn’t move to pull it back in place. A few more gusts of wind and he would get a sneak peek of my panties.

“You know exactly what I’m talking about,” he huffed as his fingers gripped the wheel tighter.

“Fine.” I rolled my eyes as I tugged the dress back into place. “Stop changing the subject. Where are we going?”

“We’re here.” The car came to a halt right as I looked up to see where ‘here’ was.

“The Office?” I aimed a confused stare at him. It seemed kinda nice for what he said was going to be a casual night.

“My brother swears by this place. Says they have great seafood.” I smiled as he climbed out of his car and jogged around to open my door. As I stood, he pulled me in for a quick kiss before whispering in my ear, “I grew up a few miles from here. We’re miles from campus. You’re safe here. Relax.” With that, he tilted his head and connected our lips once again, this time plunging his tongue in and wreaking havoc on my body. I know I must have moaned as I swayed into him, completely losing myself.

When he pulled back, my eyes fluttered opened and I blinked as I tried to focus on my surroundings. It was a beautiful setting. Gas lanterns were spaced around the walkways and the deck off to the side. White clapboard covered the outside, and green awnings were placed over the door, and the windows. When we stepped through the door, the hostess sat us right away.

“Did you get reservations?” I pressed my lips together to keep from grinning.

“Maybe.” He shrugged. “Maybe I just have pull here.” He chuckled as the hostess handed us our menus and disappeared.

“Right.” I shook my head as I perused the menu. Cayden was right. Everything sounded delicious. We soon ordered, and before I knew it my seabass was placed in front of me.

“This is so good,” I mumbled around a mouth full of fish. Cayden laughed as he sipped his water.

“I’m glad you like it. Don’t get too full though. I’ve got something special planned for later.” He winked as he expertly opened an oyster, slipping the slimy thing between his lips. I couldn’t help but stare as his tongue slipped out to lick his lips. I knew he was good with his mouth, but watching the man eat oysters was slowly undoing me.

“Stop staring at me like that,” he grumbled as he opened another. “I’ll be cutting my dinner short, and I’m kinda hungry today.”

“Like what?” I shrugged as I took another bite of fish.

“Like you’d rather me be eating something else.” He shook his head as he put the shell to his lips and sucked.

I felt heat spread across my face as I pictured his lips sucking on something else, and my panties were done for. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Sure you don’t. You’re a terrible liar, Addison. What you’re thinking about is written all over your face clear as day.” He nodded as he reached for another shell.

“You’re enjoying this way too much. Can’t you eat your corn or something?” I motioned with my fork to the uneaten corn on the cob sitting on his plate.

He tipped his head to the side and shrugged. “Sure.” I watched as he placed the oyster back on his plate, grabbed the corn, and proceeded to suck the butter off of it. “Is that better?”

“I hate you right now.” I scowled as I pressed my thighs together. I was getting to the point that I was ready to rush to the ladies’ room and take care of this ache. Guys didn’t understand that it happened to women too, and right now I was about to die a painful death.

“I think we might be even now.” His eyes dipped down like he was trying to see my lap through the table.

“Not even close.” I glared at him. I could tell that our banter was getting to him too, but I knew he’d never admit it. He motioned for the check, and paid as I finished my fish.

Once he’d signed the credit card slip, he held out his hand, and led me back outside. Instead of walking toward the parking lot, Cayden headed toward the beach. There was a small set of stairs that led over the dunes and down to the water. The tide was out, so there was plenty of beach. A few people were out there but not as many as I thought would be.

“It’s kinda empty for a such a beautiful night,” I mused.

“Wanna know why?” Cayden grinned as he pulled me closer. Before I could respond, he lifted me in his arms. My sandals were dangling from my fingers as were his as he playfully jogged toward the water. The minute he placed me on the cool sand and the next wave lapped up around my ankles, I knew why we were one of the only ones out here. The water was freezing. I shrieked as I jumped toward him, trying to climb him like a tree.
