“What?” I ask.
“How did you not—”
I take one of her nipples in my mouth. They’re at mouth height. I’m a man.
She pushes me away. “Foxx, I was talking.”
“Sorry. I can’t help myself.”
She sighs. “I’ll summarize. I like the outdoors, but don’t do bugs.”
I shake my head.You are too adorable.“That’s not how that works.”
“I think you can make it happen.”
“You have a lot of faith in me,” I say.
“So don’t let me down.” She watches me expectantly. “So you know …”
I flinch. “What? Do you want fucked again?”
“No. I mean, yes,” she says, laughing. “But we need to get the food order in because I don’t want to get cranky.”
I drag her down until she’s lying flat against me, then cup her face in my hands.
“Do you think I’m scared of you if you’re cranky?” I ask.
“You should be.”
I gently kiss her lips.
“Then we could maybe do something outside—just to get some fresh air.”
Okay, I did hear her. Sort of.
What can we do outside that’s not in public? I think about it for a second and come up with an idea.
I kiss her again, pulling away as she tries to deepen it.
“Hey!” she protests.
“Food first.” I roll her off me and then climb out of bed. “I’m going to order for us. When I get back, be naked and spread out for me.”
Her giggles follow me out of the room.

“Don’t move!” I grip both sides of the kayak for dear life. “This thing is going to—ah!”
He laughs behind me, shifting his weight just enough for the vessel to shake. I recoil from the turtle jetting below us like he’s in a race.
“We’re not going to flip. Relax,” Foxx says from behind me.
My heart pounds as I scan the area for wildlife—mostly wildlife of the carnivorous variety. Since the man at the rental shack warned us to stay out of the vegetation because alligators hang out there, I’ve been a little on edge.
“Who said this was fun?” I ask, watching a school of fish beneath the glass bottom of the kayak.
