other end had said something to unnerve her. If he had to take a guess he’d say a dumped ex-lover giving her a mouthful, her body language indicated as much. “How long has this been going on?” he asked.
“Only this week, it’s nothing to be concerned over.” She brushed it off as unimportant, and maybe it was. He respected her right not to go into a lengthy discussion so dropped it for now.
“Good night Shane, and thanks again for being a sport about Cindy.”
“Forget it Kathy, it’s all good, and I’ll see you both in the morning.”
“With bells on.” Liz laughed.
As the door closed behind him, Ice was still reeling from the fact that Doe Eyes was his neighbor. She’d been practically living in his pocket for two months without him having a clue. He didn’t even have to ask her out, Liz unknowingly did that for him orchestrating a trip to the beach, and the bit about Kathy not being able to swim was clever. She’d always wanted to go body boarding, maybe he could teach the teacher Liz had suggested, to which both girls had giggled. Yeah right, he’d teach her to swim and a whole lot more.
Liz was leaving tomorrow evening so he planned to continue things of a more intimate nature with Kathy then. She was even more captivating up close. He’d had the hard-on from hell the moment she walked through the kitchen door, and that husky Southern drawl of hers was dead sexy. And she’d recognized him.
She pretended she hadn’t at first and that was fine by him, if she didn’t want her friend to know, he’d play the game. But the way she’d gazed up at him from beneath her lashes, blushing every time he spoke, acting for all the world as if she was an untried virgin was actually very alluring, and that little girl act she had down pat was kind of cute too. If he didn’t know better, he’d have fallen for it. But the sight of her grinding her hips with junior’s last night was engraved in his mind in Technicolor. The wink was a nice touch though and served to let her know that he remembered her too. Yes, it was only a matter of time until they did the wild thing, and when their flesh finally united, it would be explosive, like fireworks on New Year’s Eve.

“That went rather well,” Liz spoke pushing the lock into place before turning to face Kathy. “What do you think of Shane?”
“He seems nice enough, but can we talk about him in the morning, I’m tired. Why don’t you go ahead and use the bathroom while I do a quick tidy up,” Kathy hedged.
“Okay, if you’re sure, I’ll see you in the morning.” Liz padded down the hall to her room.
Kathy was unnerved by the latest call but pushed it to the back of her mind; she had more thrilling things to think on. Like Adonis. She’d thought he hadn’t recognized her, but then came that wicked wink and her fears were confirmed. What must he think of her?
As for the trip to the beach tomorrow, she had mixed feelings. A part of her was desperate to go, but to tell the truth, she was a little anxious, never having had a strong sexual attraction to anyone like she did for Shane. Slow to develop, she’d grown from a shy child into a gauche teenager and it wasn’t till college the boys noticed her, by then all her time was taken up with work and study. Liz said she was an enigma. But now at twenty-four and still a virgin, it was nothing ventured, nothing gained. With that thought in mind, she switched off the lights and headed for the bathroom. She hadn’t wanted to talk to Liz about tonight, not about the phone call and definitely not about Shane. If she were really lucky, there’d be no time to talk tomorrow either. Going to the beach, and then rushing Liz to the airport would be a full day. By the time they hooked up again, the evening would be a distant memory.
Chapter 3
Kathy awakened to the morning sun streaming through her open window, it promised to be another heat wave. Perfect beach weather. She rummaged through her drawers in
