OLIVER

Later that day

She’s staring at me shamelessly.

She doesn’t even pretend not to.

As I reach the ladder at the edge of the pool, my gaze locks on Summer, on the naughty glint in her brown eyes.

She watches unabashedly as I climb up the ladder and out of the pool.

And I watch her too.

My girlfriend looks gorgeous in her workout clothes.

But then, she looked stunning in a sopping wet sequined dress.

“Feel free to check out the crown jewels.”

She wiggles her brow. “I am. But I’ll give them a more thorough inspection tonight.”

“Excellent. You be sure to give a proper review, okay?”

“Count on it.” She offers me a towel then snatches it back.

“No towel for me?”

“Nah. I’m going to check you out a little bit longer.”

“Feel free.”

With a smile, she hands me the towel, and I dry off. “How was your workout?”

“Amazing. Roxanne came with me. We did a Zumba class here. And she’ll do the water aerobics I’m teaching tomorrow.”

“And then pole dancing? Have you signed her up for that?”

“Not yet. But I will,” she says, then she glances at the clock. “Do you have a few minutes? I was hoping I could borrow your brain to review my gym plans.”

“Always. I always have time for you.”
