them, kissing him eagerly.
    “Hi,” she said against his lips.  
    His hands rested on her ass as he brought her closer to him, bringing his mouth to hers again. If they kept on like this, they would never leave for dinner. Pulling back Jordan squeezed her ass tight as she smiled up at him.  
    “Hey,” he whispered.  
    He had spent hours memorizing her body that afternoon. She was so beautiful, he had never been so completely blown away by someone. “Ready to go?” he asked, still holding her close. He’d much rather go back into her house for more of what they’d shared that afternoon but. he wanted this to be more than just sex, even if there was a chance after this dinner she’d walk away.  
    “I am,” she said breaking out of his embrace. His arms ached to be around her as he watched her grab her purse before locking the door. “You look really handsome,” she said putting her keys in her bag as they stepped down the porch stairs.        
    He shot her a grin before saying, “And you look really hot. Like a naughty sailor.”
    “Yes! Just the look I was going for,” she exclaimed as he opened the passenger door for her. He smiled as she came close, her red lips only inches from his as she said, “Maybe later if we still like each other, we can rock the boat.”
    Jordan tried not to laugh but he couldn’t help it. She laughed along with him before he leaned over giving her a quick kiss. “I have no doubt that we’ll still like each other after this and as much as I want to rock not only your boat but your world after dinner, I might not be able to, I’ve got an early practice tomorrow.”
      “Duly noted, but I think it might be worth being a little tired.”
    Helping her into the truck, Jordan hoped he hadn’t   hurt her feelings. It was the last thing he wanted. He walked around to the driver’s side of the truck and got in before Aynslee glanced over at him and said, “By the way, I like your flirty talk. It’s super hot.”
    Jordan smiled as he started the car and pulled out onto the road.   Reaching over taking her hand in his he noticed how soft and small her hand was but how perfectly it fit into his. Resting them against his thigh, Jordan was convinced that no one could wipe the grin off his face if they tried.
    A half an hour later, Jordan sat beside Aynslee at a romantic corner table at Maggiano's Little Italy. He loved this place, not only was the food amazing but the ambiance really felt like a little Italian cafe. Jordan usually went there with Shea and the guys before the games so they could talk about strategy but this was much better.
    “This is amazing,” Aynslee gushed as she took another sip.  
    “It is,” Jordan agreed just as the waiter came over to their table she was amazing. Jordan took the liberty of ordering all of his favorites for them to share. He then reached over turning her chair so that she was sitting between his legs as he   leaned over, kissing her cheek softly. “Did I tell you that I thought you were gorgeous tonight?”
      “I think you did when you told me I reminded you of a naughty sailor,” she laughed.
    .  
    “That’s right, I did,” he said, “I had to tell you again.”
    She looked over at her glass, running her finger along the rim of the glass before saying, “Thank you.”  
      “Tell me everything I need to know about you,” she said, surprising him.  
    .  
    “Tell me everything about you first and then I’ll answer the same.”
    “Okay,” she said, . “Let’s see . . . I don’t have any pets because I am so busy, but I want a dog. I love dogs.”
    “I do too, but I don’t have time either.”
      She continued, “I could be classified as a nerd. I like Lord of the Rings, the Hobbit, comic books and stuff like that. I played World of Warcraft all through college and at one point I wanted to name my kid Frodo.”
      “No way,”he laughed.
    “Yes way, it was bad, I’m over that now, but the only reason is
