“I don’t know. I’ll probably head back home in a few days. I can’t answer for Lucy and Dean.”

“Where are you guys from again?”

“Montana.”

“Why did you decide to come here?”

Micah was beginning to get irritated as he felt as though he was getting the third degree, and he didn’t appreciate it.

“Vacation,” Micah said.

“Just a vacation?” Raf asked, raising his eyebrows. “Alexis said that you three have some kind of love triangle going on.”

Love triangle? Really?

“Well, I am trying to talk Lucy into marrying me,” Micah said.

Raf laughed, derisively.

“You came all this way for a skirt?”

“Something like that,” Micah said, trying to keep his temper in check.

“I would never chase a woman. If she wasn’t interested in me, I would just walk away, unless she had something that I really wanted. In that case, I would just take what I wanted anyway,” Raf said.

Micah looked at Dillon, who sucked in a huge breath and squinted his eyes. Micah felt sick to his stomach at Raf’s statement.

Raf slapped Micah on the back and said, “Take care.”

Dillon and Micah watched Raf stride out the door as though he was some kind of king.

“He is something else,” Micah said.

“Yeah, but I don’t know what. I’m pretty sure he isn’t even human.”

After Micah left, he ordered some Chinese food to be delivered, making sure to get some extra crab Rangoon, which was Lucy’s favorite. He sent her a text letting her know he would bring dinner by when she got off of work. He got a smiley face emoji back.

Since when did Lucy start using emojis?

They sat close together on her bed watching reruns ofWhose Line Is It Anywaywith Drew Carey as the host.

“Remember, our teacher used to make us play the question game?” Lucy asked.

“I do remember. Dean always did better than any of us.”

A commercial came on and Micah leaned over and brushed his lips against Lucy’s.

With pulses racing and hearts pounding, Lucy and Micah found themselves drawn irresistibly closer. Their eyes locked, silently conveying the intensity of their desire. In that moment, the world around them ceased to exist as their lips met in a searing kiss.

The electricity that sparked between them sent shockwaves of pleasure through their bodies. Their lips moved with a fervent hunger, each touch igniting a fire deep within their souls. Their hands intertwined, fingers exploring the contours of each other’s bodies, savoring warmth and softness.

Micah, unable to resist the magnetism of Lucy’s lips, pulled her even closer. Their bodies pressed against each other, aching to be as close as possible. A symphony of sighs and gasps filled the air as their passionate embrace deepened.

Time seemed to stand still as Lucy’s fingers traced the outline of Micah’s jaw, his soft stubble igniting a delicious sensation against her skin. Micah’s hands roamed gently, exploring the curves of Lucy’s body, his touch sending shivers down her spine.

As their tongues danced, their connection intensified, a language spoken only by them. Every sensation, every taste, fueled the flame within, igniting a growing need for each other. Their breathing grew ragged, the intensity of the moment becoming almost overwhelming.

Breaking the kiss ever so slightly, their lips lingered, teasing and savoring the shared intimacy.
