"A fortuitous stint onfor facts and telling stories It just seemed natural to me"

Linc picks up a lock of ers I flip on my side and rest my head on my hand so I can look at hi?"

"Kind of the sa It just felt natural Dad worked a lot of hours at the shipyard so Nix and I could play hockey It's not an inexpensive sport Luckily I excelled at it"

"Nix played hockey?"

Linc grins "Yeah, but he's wasn't very good"

I laugh "Nope I guess everyone has their own thing they are good at, right?"

Linc is solereat soldier He's a hero"

"Ehanistan and was injured, but I didn't push for any details It seemed sort of private"

Linc is quiet then he rolls toward me and wraps his arot pretty banged up saving some of his fellow Marines He arded the Navy Cross for his actions"

"You're kidding? That's an a honor"

"I know There is no finer man than e and bravery he does"

"You love him a lot"

"That I do Even when he is being a pain in the ass"

I giggle at that thought "Well, re next time I see himto thank him for his sacrifices"

"How about we just stick with you giving hi is me"

Looping my arms around Linc's neck, I say, "Is that so?"

Linc tilts his head and nuzzles alongvery proprietary toward you right now"

I want to laugh at his stateet all about laughing But I still have the presence of mind to murmur, "Sounds like jealousy to me"

Linc continues to kiss froet, he whispers, "I admitI'd be jealous of any man that touched you In fact, I think I'd do them severe bodily harm"

His words warht Linc would be the jealous type "Does that include kicking your brother's ass if I hugged him?" I tease

"That would give reat pleasure, actually Make up for all the times he beat me up ere kids"

I try to think of a snappy cooes blank as glass He plunders softly while his hands move up and down my back I can't help but move my hips in toward his and e make contact, I can feel how hard he is for me

We kiss for a few moremore than to strip us out of our clothes and let Linc bury hih presence of mind to remember we are in a public, national park

We both let out hs when the kiss breaks

"I couldyou," I tell him

"If you can figure a way for us to get paid doing that, I'll gladly quit the NHL"

I smile at his words and close my eyes Linc continues to stroke his hand up and downto me how much I cherish his touch

When we had finally both given into this ht of this as anything ood ti to admire quite a bit
