"I hate to tell you this but I have to back to my room and wash my hair," Melissa told him.
Nick laughed as he pulled his wife beater back on. "It's OK. I feel the love."
"I'm really sorry but the chlorine just kills my hair but it shouldn't take to long for me to wash it. Why don't you come back with me and just wait and then we could do whatever."
"OK that sounds fine by me."
When they reached Melissa's room, Nick sat on the edge of the bed and turned on the TV while Melissa went into the bathroom.
For Melissa standing in the shower was when she always did her best thinking and she had tons to think about.
When should I tell Nick the truth about me? she thought. She had to admit that Meg was right about how it would only break his heart later on.
She was also still considering Meg's other piece of advice concerning her and Nick. Last night things had gone pretty far and Melissa wondered what would have happened if Meg hadn't come back when she did. Would they both have kept going?
It was then that it hit her. In a way she almost wished that Meg hadn't interrupted them. It had been practically the perfect moment in every way. Would another moment like that ever really come along between them in the next two days? She was leaving the day after tomorrow.
She had always wondered what it would be like to have sex. She had told herself that when she finally decided to get intimate with a guy it would have to like the perfect moment and incredibly romantic, but now when in a week she might be dead she was seriously considering giving herself to him. Should I or shouldn't I? she wondered. It was going to be a tough decision and she knew that she would have to listen to her heart not her mind.
After she finished her shower she still hadn't made a decision which totally frustrated her.
She put on a pair of blue denim jeans and a baby blue button up tank top. When she was done getting dressed she stepped outside again, grabbed a comb and started combing her hair.
"You look cute, Babydoll," Nick told her.
"Why thanks. What are you watching?"
"I was watching Jerry Springer. It's like the most entertaining show."
Melissa rolled her eyes at him and laughed. "It figures."
Nick laughed but then got very serious. "Come here Babydoll," he said patting a spot next to him on the bed.
Melissa changed the channel to MTV which was in commercial and sat next to him as he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her. She kissed him back as he gently pulled her onto his lap.
Melissa pulled away slowly and for some reason turned to look at the TV which had just gotten back from commercial and the video for I Knew I Loved You was just beginning is this some kind of sign? She wondered as she just smiled and said, "I love this song."
"Yea, it's really nice," Nick agreed.
"You know I really think this song describes us," she told him.
"Really?"
"Yea, because this may sound crazy but from that first time I saw you in the lobby I just knew that you were special. It was like love at first sight," she confessed.
Wow, I don't think anyone has ever told me anything like that before. that's pretty deep."
"Yea, I know but it's the truth," she told him gazing into his eyes.
"Do you wanna dance?" he asked her.
"Sure," Melissa said standing up as Nick wrapped his arms around her pulling her close.
As the song went on Melissa began to realize how close they were both emotionally and physically. She noticed how right now while they were wrapped in each others arms how her still damp hair grazed his shoulder and how he was tracing the outline of her lip with his thumb and how the music blended in perfectly giving her goosebumps and the setting sun through the window made everything even better. It was then she finally reached her decision as the song ended.
She looked up at him and was surprised that she wasn't to nervous yet. She softly whispered in his ear, "Nick, I'm ready now. I want us to make love."
"Are you absolutely sure?" he asked.
"Yes, I'm positive."
"You know I love you way more than I ever loved Erin."
"Really?"
"Yes, really," he told her as he kissed her. Melissa kissed him back and soon each kiss was deeper and more passionate than the last one. Slowly their hands began to wander all over the other's body and finally Nick began to slowly unbutton each button on her top carefully. His fingertips slowly brushed her arms as he let her top slowly fall to the floor. she slid her hands underneath his wife beater taking it off and letting it fall to the floor also.
Nick slowly walked around to her back and unsnapped her bra as he left light intimate kisses along her bare shoulder blades that sent chills down her spine.
"You have goosebumps!" Nick told her as he still slowly brushed her arms with his fingers and kissed her shoulder blades.
"I know," Melissa said biting her bottom lip and closing her eyes as he slowly ran his fingers down her sides. She wasn't surprised that she had goosebumps considering she just got out of the shower and the ceiling fan was blowing a light breeze over her half naked body, plus the way Nick's fingertips were gently running all over her body wasn't helping much either. She turned towards him running her hands up his chest and wrapping them around his neck and he started to french her harder than before. He slowly ran his fingertips down her sides to her hips and then to the buttons on her jeans and unbuttoned them, slipping them off and running his fingertips down the outside of her legs as her jeans fell to the floor.
Slowly Nick began to lead her towards the bed and laid her down on it as he laid on top of her still kissing her where they ended up making love all night long.
AJ and Meg had just returned from the club where they had went after the club where they had went after the beach. as they approached AJ's door AJ asked, "Do you want to come in?"
"Sure," Meg replied as she followed him into the room and sat down on his bed.
"Hmm, its pretty late and Nick still isn't back?" Meg asked suspiciously.
"Nope. Guess not?"
"OMG, I know exactly where he is right now!"
"Where?"
"With my sister. Very with my sister," she said giggling a little.
"How could you tell?"
"Let's just say twins have this sixth sense when it comes to things like this. I bet if I called my room this second I'd be interrupting something big."
AJ laughed a little as he went over to his cds and took out his Brian McKnight CD and put on Back at one. "Lets forget about them and concentrate on us," he said as he stood her up, wrapped his arms around her and held her close as they started slow dancing.
Megan smiled at him and wrapped her arms around his neck. "I'm glad we feel the same way about each other. It makes me feel so much better."
"Me too," AJ replied with a smile then kissed her. The kiss slowly got deeper and deeper until AJ slyly slid his hand up the back of her shirt.
Meg led him to the bed and laid down pulling him on top of her. She rolled over and took off his shirt, kissing his chest. AJ removed her shirt and unsnapped her bra, slowly letting them fall off her shoulders.
They continued to undress each other slowly and made love for the first time together that night. After it was over they fell asleep in each others arms.
