“You don’t have to cover for him. I know he said something. It wouldn’t be like him not to.”
“He’s just concerned, Sam. And I don’t blame him. I should have thought it through before I tried to involve you and Simone. If I were Justin I would feel the same way.”
Samantha could feel herself seething. How dare he? She was a grown woman, capable of making her own decisions. When was he going to let her live her own life? She gripped the steering wheel.
“Take it easy, Sam,” he soothed, covering her hands with his.
“That’s not the point, Chad, and you know it.”
“He told me about the threats. And I’m worried.”
She pressed her lips together and stared out her window. “I can take care of myself.”
“That doesn’t stop your folks from worrying, Samantha…or me.”
Slowly, she turned toward him, her eyes glimmering in the soft night light.
Chad gently cupped her chin. “I wouldn’t want to be the cause of anything happening to you,” he said softly. “I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.” His eyes held her and she wondered if he could hear the pounding of her heart, hear the one thought racing through her head: kiss me, kiss me.
Never in his life had he felt so torn. The urge to take her in his arms, feel the softness of her against him, nearly blocked out the fact that once upon a time he’d slept with her sister, carried that one night with him for four years. Did she know? Did it matter to her? And yet, here he was, inches away from her lips, wanting her with an intensity that rocked him. He was afraid. Afraid of what that meant and where this simple kiss would take them.
And then all at once he tasted her, the shivering sweet sensation of her. He gave in to the tender pull of her mouth against his. Memory faded. It was only the here and now, with Samantha.
She let go, let the moment seize her, savored it, took and gave, and it was just as she thought it would be, only better.
An eternity passed, but it was only seconds, seconds that changed everything—and them.
