“You don’t want to keep holding my hands?” he joked.

“I’d love to but I don’t think that will help me swim on my own,” she sputtered trying to keep her head above the water.

Moving back to the shallow end, he let go as she stood on the bottom of the pool. “Okay, let’s work on the arm movement.” He spent the next fifteen minutes teaching her how to circle her arms in a paddling motion. After she was comfortable with that, he supported her with his hands on her tummy as she kicked while moving her arms.

“You promise not to let go?” she asked as they moved toward deeper water.

“I promise, baby. I’ll never let you go.”

Once again, she wondered if there was a double meaning in his words. After several minutes of working to get the rhythm correct, he pulled her in close to his body. She wrapped her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck, luxuriating in the feel of floating in the water holding on to him.

With her breasts pressed tightly to his chest and her core firmly nestled against his throbbing cock, he kissed her as they continued to move through the water. Her back finally landed against the side of the pool and he pressed even closer. The kiss became desperate. Needy. Just like his desire for her.

“Princess,” he growled. “We’ve gotta get upstairs. I fucking want to take you here and now, but I’m not about to chance someone coming in.”

Panting into his mouth, she nodded. “I need you now,” she cried.

With an easy lift, he set her on the side of the pool and pulled himself out effortlessly. Reaching down, he plucked her up, carrying her in his arms. Bending as they rounded the side, he grabbed their towels as he carried her to the elevator. Once inside, he continued the kiss that had been interrupted in the pool. As the elevator doors opened, he set her down and grabbed her hand as they quickly walked to his apartment.

Another man came out of a door, his eyes noticeably appreciating the view. Vinny looked down, seeing Annalissa’s nipples clearly poking through the worn bathing suit material. Throwing a towel around her chilled body, he growled at the neighbor who quickly paled at the sight of the large, muscular, and obviously pissed-off man.

Giggling, she felt herself gently pushed inside his apartment as Vinny kicked the door closed behind them.

“I can’t believe I let you walk around in that bathing suit on our way up here,” he exploded. “I must be crazy.”

“Vinny, really?” she asked, tapping her foot on the floor. “Are you telling me that you’ve never been at a pool party or beach with other women in skimpy bikinis?”

He stopped and looked at her, his eyes still flashing irritation.

“Well?” she prodded. “You’ve never ogled a woman in a bathing suit? You’ve never been with anotherwoman at a pool who was wearing a lot less than this old one-piece?”

“That’s different,” he spluttered.

“How, for crying out loud? Please tell me how you and your friends hanging around a pool trying to pick up girls in skimpy bikinis is any different than that man catching a glimpse of me in this outfit? Which, by the way, covers most of me?”

He stood there, perplexed as to how to answer her. She was right. He had spent a lot of time hooking up with skimpily clad women and not caring what his own dates were wearing. If his friends got a glimpse of the tits or ass of a hookup of his, he never cared.

Running his hand through his dark blond hair, making it stand up on end, he looked down at the beauty in front of him.But this was different. He had wanted to gouge his neighbor’s eyes out.Sighing, he knew he could not lie to her.

“Because I never cared about anyone before you. Because I’ve fallen in love with you. And because the thought of anyone else seeing a part of you that’s only for me, makes me crazy,” he confessed nervously.

“You…you love me?” she whispered, forgetting to breathe.

“Yeah, but I know a man like me doesn’t deserve someone like you,” he said, his eyes gazing deeply into hers.Give me a chance, baby. Please.He watched her own eyes tear up. Stepping closer, he reached his hand out to touch her cheek. “Breathe, baby,” he reminded.

She gasped as she leaned her face into his hand. The warmth of his touch melted into her.

“Tell me I’ve got a chance. I know I’ve lived wild and rough, but please tell me that you might feel something for me too.”

Her smile lit up his world. Dark, wet hair tangled behind her, still dripping water off of the ends. An old, faded, red bathing suit designed for practicality instead of sex appeal. No makeup.And the most beautiful woman I’ve ever laid eyes on.

“I think I fell in love with you somewhere between Indiana and Kentucky,” she said, still smiling.

Struck speechless, Vinny stared at the woman who had stolen his heart. And was handing it back to him along with hers.

Suddenly, the two reached for each other, hands grasping as they quickly pulled off their swimming attire. He scooped her up in his arms, her naked body inflaming his, as his aching cock swelled.

Making it to the bedroom in record time, he lay her on the bed reverently.She loves me.Determined to worship her body slowly, he lay next to her as his lips sealed over hers. Moving his hand down, he felt every curve, from her breasts that just filled his hands to her flat stomach all the way to the gentle swell of her hips.
