Excerpt:
My eyes
traveled around the room until I saw Jack leaning against the counter by the
coffee machine in his department-issued navy blue shirt, blue cargo pants, and
boots. I flushed to find his eyes on mine. I couldn’t get the feel of his hands
or lips out of my head. He made no move to grab a donut, so I walked over to
him. “Not hungry this morning?” I asked.
“Oh,
I’m always hungry,” he said, his eyes steady on mine as he took a sip of his
coffee.
After
the dream I had, I couldn’t help but take that comment literally. “You should
eat an apple cider donut before they’re gone," I said, my heart pounding,
I turned to grab a plate to hide my face, but Jack grabbed my hand pulling me
back. “Don’t worry about it, I can get it myself,” he said.
The
movement knocked me off balance and I fell back onto his hard chest. His arm
came around my middle to steady me. “Whoa there,” he whispered into my ear, as
his body curled around mine. “I said I can get it myself. You’ve been on your
feet all morning. Why don’t you sit down and rest?”
I heard
the guys joking around me, but couldn’t follow their conversation.
“Samantha?”
Jack’s voice caressed my ear again.
“Yeah?”
I asked, breathing in the smell of coffee, and leaning my head back a little to
look up at him. His eyes crinkled in amusement and his lips tilted up into a
smile.
“Are
you going to sit down?”
His
chest was warm on my back, and my hands instinctively gripped his bare
forearms, which were wrapped around my waist. I wanted to sink back into him
even more, but I reluctantly moved out of his hold, feeling the loss of warmth
immediately. I shook my head to clear it and pulled a stool from the island to
sit down. The guys were still standing around the counter, but the box of
donuts was almost empty.
