“I’m glad I’m here, too.” Jake crossed the room and slid his arms around her waist. He worried she’d pull away, but she leaned into him. It encouraged him to hold her closer. Then he lifted her hair from her neck and kissed just under her ear as he inhaled her peachy scent.
Dawn turned in his arms and tilted her head back to gaze up at him. Her pupils dilated and her cheeks turned an even darker shade of pink. He wanted to kiss her. No, needed to kiss her.
“I’m going to kiss you. Any objections?”
“None.” Her voice was raspy and barely above a whisper. It sent a bolt of electricity straight to his cock.
He cupped the back of her head as he lowered his mouth to hers. Her tongue slid out and moistened her lips, and he groaned, imagining all the places he’d love to feel that tongue.
Then there was nothing but the feel of her in his arms and the taste of coffee as their tongues slid against each other. He glided his other hand up from her waist and caressed her breast through her T-shirt. Dawn shuddered and grasped his arms until he felt the bite of her nails digging into his skin.
He didn’t know how long they’d kissed when Rafe cleared his throat. Jake wanted to tell him to get lost, but he knew better. Instead, he ended the kiss with a sigh. Dawn leaned her head against his chest for a moment, then stepped away from him. As soon as she did, an emptiness made his heart ache.
“I guess you didn’t get much planning done,” Rafe remarked.
Oh, yeah, wait until they were back in Norfolk. Rafe would be sorry for all the teasing when Jake ran his ass ragged in PT on their first day back.
