out loud and blushed. She tried to look down, but Jake wasn’t having it. He lifted her chin with his finger so that he was able to look deep into her eyes.
    “Now what do you mean about kissing my sister?”
    “You said you think of me as a sister. So I thought you weren’t interested.”
    Now it was Jake’s turn to look confused. “Sister? Why the hell would you think that?”
    Emma huffed, “That’s what you said last night when you were chasing the other men away. You said you wouldn’t trust them with your sister.”
    Jake hung his head for a moment and chuckled, while Emma started squirming.
    “Put me down if you’re going to laugh at me,” she exclaimed.
    Jake’s eyes went back to her face that was blushing a deep red. He didn’t know how, but she looked more beautiful than ever, with her hair askew, her face flushed, her breasts heaving from indignity, and a dirt smudge on her cheek.
    “Darlin’, there is nothing sisterly about how I feel for you, so you can get that idea right out of your head.”
    Emma looked up, still blushing furiously. “Oh,” was the only thing she could think of to say. “Well, at least put me down.” she squirmed some more.
    “Hell no, darlin’, you are right where I want you,” he replied. Jake looked into her beautiful face and continued. “Emma girl, I noticed you at the bar before we were introduced. Now I know Brandi made that night all kinds of awkward, and as a man I hated being put in the position of trying to be a gentleman and not cause a scene when what I really wanted to do was kiss you like I just did now. Looking back, I should’ve shoved her away and stepped right up to you. I also know that relationships and caring for my mom haven’t exactly been successful in the past, so I figured it didn’t matter. But I hated like hell that you thought I was a jerk.”
    Emma had never heard him say so much at one time, and since she liked what he was saying, she just kept her mouth shut and her gaze on him.
    “But as soon as I saw those men buzzin’ around you at the cookout, I knew I had to stake my claim.” At this Emma’s eyebrow rose up.
    “Baby, I can see you’re about to get your panties in a bunch over what I just said, but I haven’t felt like this in a long time, and I wanna have time to explore it without constantly fightin’ men off of you.” At this Jake got quiet but held her gaze.
    “I’ve been alone for years, but not really by choice,” Emma said. She gave a small smile as she looked at him, “But I’d like to see where this goes, too.”
    Jake dropped his gaze for a moment, then looked back up, “Well, all right then.” His big speech over, he leaned back in and kissed her once more. This time is was tender, sweet and filled with promise. Emma realized that no matter which kind of kiss Jake gave her, she felt all of them right down to her core. It had been a long time since she had slept with anyone, but she found herself wondering if she was ready for Jake. She clung to him in desperation, as she kissed him, putting all the emotion she felt into the kiss.
    Oh yeah, I’m ready for him.
    Jake slowly lowered her to the ground, making sure her feet were securely under her before letting go. Emma gave a little moan at the loss of contact.
    “Don’t worry, Emma girl. I’m going to have you soon, but when we fuck, it sure isn’t going to be next to the outside of a chimney in broad daylight.” Emma blushed again, and Jake laughed taking her by the hand.
    “Come on girl. Let’s keep exploring this place.”
    They went back inside, checking the house over carefully. The realtor had emailed the inspector’s report from a few months ago, so she knew the house was sound. She and Jake spent the afternoon talking about what she would need to fix first and what she would eventually like to do with the place. Jake liked the craftsmanship of the house. The windows and doors were straight and tight. The floors were solid.
    He could see the
