place as his words rolled around in my mind. Then he clamp his hand on my shoulder gave it a little squeeze and nudged me forward. “What do you say we go out there on the dance floor and show our ladies how to move?”

Our ladies, I liked the sound of that.

“What, I’m just saying that maybe you should have given him a little kiss goodbye.” Anna shrugged and wiggled her hips a little more to the music.

“You are seriously like a teenage boy going through puberty.”

“Nah, if I was I would have said, maybe you should have given him a hand job during dinner.” This time she wagged her eyebrows and spun in a circle. “Or maybe a little—”

“Okay, you’ve made your point.”

“Wyatt is a guy I would definitely give a little under the table action to if given the chance.” I gawked at Miley and she shrugged as if to say what. “I’m just saying, he is yummy.”

She swiveled around and joined Tate and the others only a few feet away.

Both Anna and I laugh. “Wow,” Anna whispered. Miley was always so quiet, but it would seem alcohol made her braver than a normal day. I was really starting to love that girl.

I’ll admit there was a time or two throughout my night at Wyatt’s that I’d found myself focusing a little too long on his lips. The way he’d formed his words, or that dimple in his left cheek when he’d smile at something I’d said. I’d been given a preview of the guy Anna had been telling me about and I liked the time we’d spent together.

He was a man, and in a way, he was still that same sweet boy I’d found so interesting back when, only a hundred times better. He’d lived, and learned.

“Don’t look now, but we are about to be invaded.”

I was just about to ask her what she was talking about when Beau slipped passed me and wrapped her in his arms. Immediately she melted into him and I’m left alone on the dance floor. That was until I felt the heat of someone pressing in behind me.

“I see you’ve found yourself a pair of jeans.” His breath tickled my neck and sent chills down my spine. “And boots.”

I fought the urge to lean back toward him, unsure of how he’d react. The fact was since I left his house the other night, I’d been unable to get him out of my mind. It was a huge turn of events from the way I felt when I first ran into him. Or should I say when he ran into me.

“I went shopping,” shrugging I turned and look over my shoulder. He was close, his face hovering only a small fraction from mine. I noticed the way he looked toward my mouth, before meeting my eyes once more. Being so close gave me the perfect view of his eyes. They were brown, with little flecks of gold. “I figured it was time to fit in.”

“Sadie,” he did a little shake with his head and chuckled, “I don’t care what you do, how hard you try, you will always stand out in a crowd. It’s inevitable, you can’t change it, and you shouldn’t want to. It’s definitely not a bad thing, it’s not a bad thing at all.” My heart was racing and the two of us simply stared at one another.

I couldn’t remember a time in my life when I’d ever felt a rush like I did right then. Every nerve ending was alive. I was fully aware of every breath he and I took, the thump of the music around us. I felt everything.

“Do you mind if I join you?”

“You dance?” When he nodded his head, I began to swivel around to face him, and he stopped me by wrapping his arm around me from behind. Stepping up closer, with his chest pressed to my back he slowly began to move his hips.

And I was done.

A melted puddle of turned on female ready to attack him. There was nothing sexier than a man that knew how to move his hips.

“Is this okay?” Was he serious? I wanted to shout, hell fucking yes, it’s more than okay but I chose to nod instead. Chancing a look at Anna I found both her and Beau looking at us, but trying to be discreet. She flashed me a smile before moving on with her husband and I was thankful to have
