quit it. I’m not going to act like I don’t think you’re the most beautiful girl in the world just because it embarrasses you. Besides, I’ve seen you in a bikini before. Do you not remember that we’ve spent half our relationship at the beach?”
                  “That’s different,” I tried to argue, even though I realized that maybe it wasn’t all that different. But still.
                  “Okay, then there’s no reason not to take your shirt off. I took mine off.”
                  I forced back a smile. “I know, but that’s different, too.”
                  “It’s always ‘different’ when you don’t agree,” he sighed, feigning frustration. “What am I going to do with you?”
                  “Let me back into the air conditioning?” I suggested.
                  He shook his head. “Not likely to happen.” He put an arm over me and tugged me until I moved closer to him.
                  “Just do it this once,” he pleaded. “I’ll never ask you to again, I promise.”
                  “Never?”
                  “Scouts honor.”
                  “You weren’t a boy scout,” I reminded him. “I think scouts honor only counts if you were.”
                  “Then you’re just going to have to trust me.”
                  “Fine. Close your eyes.”
                  “I’ll do you one even better,” he claimed, rolling over so that his back was facing me. I quickly pulled my shirt off and put it on the side of the bed, and then climbed under the covers, hoping they had been washed recently. Adam felt the movement and sat up quickly.
                  “That wasn’t part of the deal,” he protested.
                  I smiled innocently. “You asked me to take it off, and I did. You said nothing at all about me not covering up with something else.”
                  He shook his head. “Well, you’re the one going to die from heat exhaustion,” he said. “It’s got to be at least ninety five in here.”
                  “Then when I pass out you can feel guilty over causing it,” I said.
                  He grinned, a mischievous gleam in his eyes, then grabbed the other end of the covers and climbed under them before I could do anything to stop him. “Maybe I can’t see but I can still feel,” he said, climbing on top of me again. Before I could think of my next move, he began tickling me and I squealed, struggling to get away from him.
                  It didn’t work. Instead, he stopped tickling me only to hold me down and start kissing me again. My body responded, instinctively wrapping my arms around his neck and kissing back.
                  This time I broke the kiss off first, pushing him back a little. “Maybe I should go home,” I said softly. He smoothed my hair away from my face and studied me with his deep brown eyes.
                  “Maybe we should stop trying to plan everything and just let things happen,” he suggested.
                  “I’m no good at that,” I reminded him. “Everything needs to be planned and everything needs to happen at the right time.”
                  “You’re never going to know if it’s the right time if you need to plan everything,” he pointed out. “Just let me kiss you.”
                  I did. I kissed him until I didn’t even notice the blankets being pulled away. I kissed him until I didn’t register where his hands were traveling. I kissed him until I stopped caring.
                  “Do you want to stop?” He asked, after what felt like an eternity. I wanted to tell him that I wanted the world to stop, that I wanted time to pause until I could decide. I knew from the beginning that this moment was
