“Well, if you really want to put your heart and soul into something you love,” Heath said as he looked at Ophelia, “it takes time. It took me years to build my cabin and it may take several more months for me to finish my parent’s home. I’d certainly love for you and Mr. Dean to come and visit and see my handing work.”
Their time with her family wa s promising. It was a typical Fourth of July function with all of her family and friends giving Heath their undivided attention but he won them over simply by being himself. Ophelia really believed he didn’t care what anyone thought of him except for herself. Each evening he found a reason for them to take a walk in the neighborhood or steal her away from her family.
She was aware that for Heath geography had not changed how loving he was toward her even when they were around her family. He caressed and kissed her whenever the mood struck him. He proudly displayed his affections toward her and teased her privately about throwing her over his shoulder and having his way with her. Heath was the perfect gentleman around her family and an absolute unrestrained cad when they were in private.
He ath constantly tried to talk her panties off and when that failed he would kiss her until she was just as frustrated with arousal as he was. It was during those times when her flesh was weak with the need for the obscenely large bulge in Heath’s pants. She often imagined herself as Golem from Lord of the Rings desperate to possess the ‘precious’.
They did the usual site seeing but it seemed different with Heath. They met some of her highs-school friends. They went bowling with her brother’s family and her parents. Heath was a good fit with her family and friends. The overall visit to her family was a success that made her happy.
Just before they left to go back to Notch, the family had dinner at her brother’s home. They got to do some sibling talk while Heath and her dad manned the grille and entertained her niece and nephew.
“So you went the total opposite direction from Darnell…Military Ken?”
“Okay smartass…that wasn’t my intention and to be truthful Heath’s more like mountain man Ken , Kenny. I really like him and you could say I crashed into him literally. He’s a good man in spite of his lack of pigment.”
“Hey lil’ sis you’ll get no argument from me. You look happy… much happier than I’ve seen you in a long time. As long as he puts a smile on your face...that’s all that matters to me. Have you asked yourself where do you see this…going?”
“Not this time…this time I’m along for the ride,” Ophelia said suddenly seriously.
“There’s a funny thing about riding, sis, you can’t decide the speed or direction of the path you’re being taken and sometimes not even where you want to get off.”
Ophelia watched her brother join the men at the barbeque pit and caught Heath’s eye. Her heart beat faster as he smiled at her. She was in awe of just how handsome he was and how much she thrilled in the knowledge that for time being he was hers.

They made one stop on their way back home and had dinner with one of Heath’s old military buddies. Ophelia appeared to like Victor Sanchez and his wife Gita. Heath caught her watching him on and off throughout the evening laughing at his exploits about him and his friends. He hoped it didn’t give her the wrong impression of him. Heath cared about how she perceived him, because he cared for her.
“Mission control to Heath, where were you, buddy?” Victor teased as he handed Heath a bottle of beer.
“Just thinking about where my path has been and where it’s going.”
From the corner of his eye he saw Victor look at him and then at Ophelia.
“It’s amazing how the love of a good
