more than Montana, yet there she was making friends, being a part of the community. It was part of her and in that moment, he realized this was exactly where she wanted to be.
"Drew." His name on her lips was not helping his self-control.
He backed against the wall, bracing his palms on the hard surface, keeping himself from reaching for her. "Amanda."
"I didn't know you were there," she said breathlessly, and he knew she was feeling the pull just as much as he was.
He grinned and watched as she licked her bottom lip, and damn if he didn't want to lick it himself. "I got that."
"Why are you here?" Right, why was he there again? He could barely think past the press of his erection against his zipper.
Her eyes trailed down his body as he shifted his weight, trying to alleviate the pressure building. "After hearing that, I'm seriously considering kissing you. I miss you so fucking much. After all these years, I can't stop missing you."
"I highly doubt you came here to kiss me." She took a few steps toward him, and he knew her brain no longer controlled her body. He could kiss her, lift her around his waist and sink deep into her, and she wouldn't object.
But he wanted her head to be on board with her body. Right then, she was filled with lust and that wasn't enough for him, not this time. "Don't underestimate the power you have on me, Amanda."
"Why are you here, Drew? I'm really busy, so unless there's a reason you're standing in my kitchen, I need to get back to work," she told him. However, he noticed a hitch in her voice, giving more away than she probably wanted.
"I heard you accepted Cole's offer, so I thought I would drop by and check in."
"Your brother really doesn't give you the option to say no. When he has his mind made up, there's no changing it. I guess you inherited that trait, too. " He knew Cole wouldn't let her leave without saying yes. But deep down, he knew how stubborn Amanda could be, and there was a moment where he doubted she would accept.
"No, I guess he doesn't. I was in town, so I thought I would stop by and ask if tomorrow is a good time to drop by the house." The truth was he had created a reason to come into town because he needed to see her, but it was not the time to tell her that.
"That's fine." He could tell she wasn't smitten with the idea of spending time alone with him. They were going to have to work on that, one day at a time.
He smiled at her. "All right then, I'll see you tomorrow."
"Okay."
He headed toward the back door, smiling at how affected she was by him. It was good to know he wasn't alone in this. To know she felt even half of what he was feeling was enough for him.
In that moment, he decided to push his luck. Back in high school, she had loved his straight-forwardness, so it was as good a time as any to see if she still liked it. "Amanda."
"Yeah?"
He spun around to see her face. Her cheeks were flushed, and she looked like she was on the verge of jumping him, exactly what he wanted.
"I ever hear you talk about me like that again, I won't be responsible for what happens next." He smiled when he heard her gasp.
Chapter Four
The sound of his alarm woke Drew up from one of the many dreams featuring Amanda he'd been having for days. Rolling over to the side of the bed to stop the noise, his erection reminded him of how much he wanted the woman who was fighting like hell to keep him at bay. Ever since their encounter in the diner's kitchen a few days back, all he could think about was kissing her sweet lips, and making love to her.
He was about to stroke his cock, desperate for relief, when his bedroom door swung open and Cole stood in the doorway. "Get your lazy ass out of bed. We have to be at Amanda's in thirty." Drew threw his head back on his pillow, running his hands over his face as he listened to his brother's footsteps head downstairs. It was a good start to the day.
