tonight. Then tomorrow. One thing at a time, and we’ll do it together. Alright?”
    “Alright.”
    Their eyes met and held. The busy restaurant disappeared around them; the noise and bustle just faded away. Suddenly, all Katie saw were Adam’s eyes and all he saw were her lips.
    Adam’s breath caught and he moved closer to her, unable to stop himself. She leaned in and his hand touched her upper thigh. He hesitated, then rested it there. She moved closer.
    His lips brushed hers, a tiny touch, barely a whisper. She closed her eyes and sighed. Adam both heard and felt it against his mouth, and his cock hardened in response. He wanted her to breathe like that while he thrust inside of her, deeper and harder, until she shattered with pleasure.
    Two plates clattered down between them and they heard a cheery, “OK, here’s your lunch!”
    They jumped apart, faces flushed.
    “Sorry, you two… maybe I should have waited?” The waitress was grinning down at them.
    “No. No, it’s fine,” Katie said quickly. “Thanks.”
    “Enjoy your lunch, now.”
    Katie couldn’t even look at Adam. Her face and body were both hot, flaming with lust and embarrassment. She stared at the food, and found she had completely lost her appetite. All she wanted was to kiss him again.
    Adam was staring at Katie’s pretty face, stunned at what he had just done.
    You asshole… she’s in no state to be pawed by some guy. Get it together, would you?
    “Katie, I am so sorry. I shouldn’t have… I’m sorry.”
    Her eyes were wide and shocked, her body pulsing with desire.
    “I just… I want you to feel safe. I shouldn’t be all over you.” Adam moved away from her a bit.
    She was still silent.
    Tell him. Just tell him, just jump off that cliff. See if he catches you. See if you fly.
    “Katie? Are you OK?” His fingers itched to stroke her cheek. “Did I scare you?”
    She shook her head. “No.”
    “No what? No, you’re not OK? Or no, I didn’t scare you?”
    “I wasn’t scared.” She looked at him. “And the place I feel safest right now is when I’m close to you. If you want to make me feel safe, then don’t move away from me even one more inch, OK?”
    He froze.
    Oh, God. Is this really happening between us?
    “You really feel that way?” he said.
    “Yes.”
    Her dark eyes were warm and open and he wanted to dive in to them.
    “Me too.” The admission rushed out of him. “I want to be close to you. I like to be close to you.”
    She smiled.
    “But we take this slow, OK, baby?” He touched her now, his large hand running up and down her lower back. “I don’t want you to have to deal with any of this right now… you have enough for getting on with.”
    “Yes.” Her fingers trembled as she touched his lips. “We’ll get through everything in Nevada, then we’ll see where we are after. Agreed?”
    “Agreed.” He forced himself to pull back a bit, but he couldn’t bear to break all contact. “Now, eat. You’ve barely had anything since we left Denver, and you need your strength for what’s coming.”
    “OK.”
    They sat and ate, their legs lightly touching, their eyes meeting over and over again. Neither of them said too much, but neither of them could remember the last time they had been so happy.

    Nick turned over in bed and reached for Mia. His hand touched the mattress and he cracked his eyes open. She wasn’t there. He squinted at the clock and saw that it was just past one o’clock.
    They had been up most of the night making love and they had both dropped off well after three o’clock. He recalled her face as she came over and over again, helpless and eager for him to be inside her, on her, all over her. His cock stiffened right away and he almost groaned out loud. He just couldn’t get enough of Mia, it seemed.
    Nick got up and wandered in to the living room area. He smelled fresh coffee and poured himself a cup and that’s when he heard tapping coming from the small office. It doubled as
