looking at me.”
    “Why should I?”
    His eyebrows rose at the obvious venom in her voice. “I
shouldn’t have bailed on the date. It was rude,” he admitted. “But you started
it.”
    “I started it?” Her voice rose. “Are you kidding?”
    “Nope.” He grabbed her right shoulder and forced her to face
him. “You did.”
    She opened her mouth to tell him off some more when she
noticed where his gaze had landed. “Nick?”
    “Hmm?”
    “What are you doing?”
    “You’re not wearing a bra.”
    “Duh. It’s too hot.” She fought the urge to cross her arms
over her chest. Why was he looking at her like this? What was going on?
    “You’ve got great tits,” he murmured then, almost as if he
was remembering them from that one time on the cliff. His hands on them, his
tongue… Shivers ran up her spine.
    “What are you doing?” she repeated, but this time, her voice
was a shriek. “Nick!”
    “I’ve already seen you naked, remember?”
    “But… But…” Words failed her. He’d grabbed the hem of her
T-shirt and raised it, baring her breasts to the whole wide world. Well, her
den, but still… “Nick!”
    “Hello there,” he murmured as he leaned down, his right hand
cupping her breast and tugging it to his awaiting mouth.
    This really wasn’t happening. She was dreaming again, wasn’t
she? She gazed down, his blond hair obscuring her view. She gasped at the feel
of his tongue on her nipple. It was unexpected, but so damn nice. She let her
head fall back, her eyes closing as his teeth snapped shut around the nub and
pulled. “God,” she whispered. She felt even warmer than before. Everywhere.
Nick—her Nick—was touching her! And even better, he’d started this. So what did
that mean?
    “You taste good, honey.”
    She did? He switched sides and attacked her other breast,
licking and sucking and pinching. She felt juices trickle down inside her
shorts, knew she’d be wet if he slid his hand inside and touched her there.
    The front door banged shut and her brother’s voice rang out,
“Hey, man, where you at? I thought we were supposed to meet at Sam’s?”
    She gasped and sat up straight, knowing she should move,
hide, something . Instead she was frozen into place, her insides still
clenched, her body yearning for only what the man leaning above her could give
her. “Nick,” she whispered, her hands finding his shoulders.
    He drew back and swiftly pulled her T-shirt down. With one
last look at her pebbled nipples still visible through the thin cotton, he
grinned and dropped a quick kiss on her parted lips. Standing up, he called
out, “In here! I thought you said I should meet you here.” He left the room.
    “Dude, are you losing your mind? You told me specifically to
meet you at the bar. Are you okay?”
    “Fine, just fine. Let’s go. A cold beer is just what I need
tonight. Shit, man, you need to get some air in this house. It’s boiling in
here.”
    “I know, Luce keeps telling me the same thing. Hey, Luce,
are you here?”
    “She’s in the den, watching CSI and pouting. I
wouldn’t bug her if I were you.”
    “You did and she kicked you out, huh?”
    “Something like that.”
    Lucy’s eyes were still wide as she listened to their banter,
then the door closed behind them and she was on her own once more. She looked
down and stared at her heavy breasts, her hardened nipples and the wet spot on
the front of her shorts. She swore out loud. What the hell had just happened?
    * * * * *
    Alex was having a pool party. Lucy sighed as she stared at
the dozen men and women scattered around their garden. Damn, but she hated her
twin sometimes. He knew she couldn’t stand those things, but he kept trying to
convince her it’d be a great idea, that she’d have a lot of fun if she just let
go. She imagined herself wearing a bikini around his friends and gulped. No,
thank you!
    “Where’s your suit?”
    She whirled around and gasped. “Nick? What the hell! My door
