Chapter 6

NOAH STRETCHED OUThis legs on the boat a week later, grinning as they bobbed up and down in the water.Bailey adjusted her skimpy yellow bikini across from him, and he resisted the urge to groan.Maybe they should’ve gone ice fishing or something instead, because he was going to need a hell of a lot of cold showers watching her all weekend.
Taylor squealed from near the stern, watching as Mason hooked live bait onto the line.
“Can’t we use something else other than worms?Yuck!”
Mason chuckled, casting his line into the water.“We could, but these work best.”
“We could use hotdogs or something,” Noah said, watching them with amusement.“Why waste good food on the fish though?”
“Because we’ll be eating the fish!If the fish eat worms, it’s kind of like we’re eating worms, too.”
Mason smirked, shaking his head.“You eat seafood all the time back in Virginia Beach, sweetheart.What do you think the fish in the ocean are eating?”
She shuddered.
“Can you pass me the sunscreen?”Bailey called out to Taylor, and her friend tossed it across the boat to her.
Bailey nabbed it from the air, and Noah chortled in approval.“Good catch.”
“I’ve got two older brothers,” she said with a shrug.“I pretty much grew up outdoors playing with them.”She squeezed some of the sunscreen into her hand, rubbing it over her shoulders.
“Need some help?”Noah offered, watching in fascination as her delicate hand moved over her smooth skin.
She glanced over at him, her long blonde ponytail swishing behind her.“Sure, cupcake.”
“Cupcake?”Mason asked with a chuckle.“Where the hell did you get that nickname?”
“Bailey’s just trying to piss me off,” Noah said with a grin as he stood and crossed to her side of the boat.“Good thing I don’t take offense easily.That, and it’s cute as hell the way she’s already given me a pet name.”
She shrugged, smirking, and he watched her full breasts rise and fall.
Hell, offering to rub sunscreen all over her was probably a big mistake.She was sexy as hell in that tiny string bikini.If anything, he wanted to be peeling it off of her.It would’ve made more sense to rub sunscreen on her without it, too.All those tiny little strings and ties were just in the way.
