“You have your hands full. I’m gonna get back to my girl.” Phoenix smiles and opens the door. I can hear him whistling the tune of Jaws as he leaves and I know he’s expecting the shark, Reece, to tear me a new one.

Mara straddles my lap.

“I am going with you right?” she asks while chewing on her bottom lip.

“Babe, we’re both in the wedding party so we’re both going to be there anyway. We will also be sitting with everyone, but yes, you are going to be with me. I just need to figure out the best time to talk to Reece.”

“Can we wait until after the wedding just in case he really gets pissed? I mean, Callie won’t want wedding pictures with Reece having a black eye, and you for that matter considering you’re the best man.”

“There isn’t going to be a fight.”

“Really?” She grins. “You’re not telling me that Reece won’t go for you when he finds out you de-flowered me.”

“I haven’t de-flowered you…yet.”

“I know. Condoms. We need lots of condoms.”

“Oh, we do, do we?” I tickle her, which has her squirming around in my lap—not such a good idea. “We can go and get some flavored ones after breakfast.”

“Flavored? Why flavored? Oh no. Normal ones will be fine because I have no intention of having any latex between you and my mouth.”

“C’mon.” I move her from my lap. “Let’s get breakfast, otherwise, we’ll be going nowhere any time soon.”

Chapter Thirteen

Mara

“Where have you been? Mom’s been looking for you,” Sarah asks, sounding pissed because I stayed out overnight. She hates not knowing what’s going on, and heaven forbid if her younger sister has a boyfriend before she does!

“Mom knows exactly where I’ve been because I sent her a text message last night letting her know, and she

replied.”

The moment I arrived home, Sarah had accosted me. I hadn’t even made it up the steps before she did, but I brushed past her. I knew what she wanted to ask me so I purposely ignored her because it’s none of her business. She always makes me feel like everything is a competition with her, and it isn’t. Although she’s really going to piss me off if she carries on whispering with Amanda about Donovan. Not only will she be putting Amanda on the spot, but if Reece finds out he’ll totally flip—maybe.

“What are you doing today?”

So now she’s trying the ‘let’s be friends’ tact, which will not work, either.

“I have some studying to do. I’ll see you later,” I say from halfway up the stairs on my way to my room.

I’m not telling her that I’m only home to change clothes before I sneak out and go and see Bonny over at the doctor’s office. Although I better give her a call first to make sure she’s working today.

Donovan dropped me off five minutes away from the house so as I walked the rest of the way home, I looked up the contraceptive injection on my phone. It says that it’s effective straightaway if you have it within five days of your period. Well, I started with an aching stomach on my way home with Donovan so I figured I’m okay to have it now, which is where Bonny comes in.

She’s one of the family planning nurses at the clinic so I’m hoping she’ll give me the injection without getting on the phone with my mom the minute I leave, like Suzie would have done. I’ve told Bonny things in the past that I don’t think she’s repeated so I’m going to put my trust in her.

I’d love nothing more than to have sex with Donovan without having anything between us—to feel his silken length as he moves back and forth inside me. I wonder what he’ll feel like inside me though. He’s big. I know the first time is supposed to hurt, but knowing Donovan, he’ll make sure the pain is minimal. Right now, I can honestly say I’m not frightened—more like excited. He makes me feel so special and just being in his presence makes me feel like the luckiest girl in the world.

At the beach yesterday, there had been so many beautiful girls and he never once stared at them. A few had tried to get his attention, but he’d turned to me instead. At least I know where his mind is, or rather whom his mind is on.

Smiling in remembrance, I throw my clothes off and head for another shower before I put some clean ones on.

Stepping under the hot spray, I decide that today feels like a sundress kind of day. Plus if I’m meeting Donovan later then I want to tease him. He can’t get in my panties for a few days, and I thank God my periods only usually last around three days. So Thursday, the day before the rehearsal dinner, I should be finished and ready to go. I just need to keep Donovan on pins until then so he doesn’t have second thoughts because of my over-bearing brother. Don’t get me wrong, I love Reece, but I’m old enough to lead my own life and I wish he’d let me, instead of interfering.

I know he’ll eventually come around to me being with Donovan, but to begin with he’s going to spit bricks, he’ll be so mad. I know the life Donovan’s led with Reece before my brother met Callie, so it’s not as though I don’t know where Reece is coming from. But, I believe Donovan when he says he only wants me. Even Phoenix believed him.

Stepping out of the shower, I quickly wipe myself dry, and after seeing to my girl problem, slip into skimpy yellow panties and one of my new sundresses hanging in my closet. It’s lemon cotton with a fitted bodice, spaghetti straps hold it up and a full skirt covers my thighs, with the dress coming to a stop above my knees. It reminds me of the kind of dresses they wore in the fifties. I love it.
