grin at my circle of girlfriends. “Oh, come on,

ys. It’s not like he’s going to catch us.”

I laugh and add, “And would it be so bad if he did. Mike O’Sullivan is s**y as f**k. I wouldn’t mind getting caught by that pair of strong arms

My friends look at me like I’ve lost my mind, and maybe I have. I’ve been-crushing on my neighbor for as long as I can remember, but ever since I turned eighteen, it’s gotten a lot worse. I guess it’s because I know that legally I can actually do something about the ache in my p**y now. I just need a little kick in the a** and that’s what I’m counting on my friends. to give.

“So who’s coming with me?” I ask, looking at each of them as they huddle around my window, peeking into Mike’s big backyard.

“There’s no way in hell I’m sneaking into his yard and jumping in his pool,” Jenny says, which I can’t say I’m too surprised about. She never was much of a rule breaker.

“Me either,” Steph adds.

Carly gives me a wicked grin, a look I know all too well. I knew I could count on her. She’s always been my partner in crime. Well, more like I’m her sidekick and lookout while she does all the fun stuff. I can’t even begin to remember all the times I’ve helped her sneak in and out of her boyfriend’s room. It’s awesome being the virginal lookout, hiding in the bushes while your BFF gets f**d. Totally awesome.

Carly knows about my crush on Mike, though, and what she says next makes up for all those hours spent in the bush. “I dare you to go over there naked and jump in his pool, Sky.”

I give her a huge smile, knowing she’s giving me the kick in the a**I need.

“No way, Sky, you can’t do that!” Jenny whines.

“Just watch me.” I laugh at her shocked expression.

“Oh, we will,” Carly says. “Right here from this window, so you’d better not chicken out.”

“But his Jeep is in the driveway,” Steph says, trying to talk some reason into me. “What if you get caught?”

“Then you better start shaking those **ts,” Carly about calling the police.”

vs with a laugh. “Make him forget a**ts at Mike has me all hot and bothered. I live for spring and summer because I know I’ve got several months of pool. He works in construction, and his body show when he gets home from work, and I always make window so I can watch him and finger myself. It would shock the hell out of him if he knew how many times I’ve c**m with his name on my lips while 1 eye-f**k the hell out of him.

My friends watch me disappear into my bathroom, and when I come out in only a tiny, silk robe, they start laughing and cheering me on.

“Go get him!” Carly yells as I walk out the door. “We’ll be watching!”

1 sneak down the stairs and out of the house without my parents noticing and tiptoe across the property line, sneaking through Mike’s back gate like a f**g half-naked burglar. As soon as I walk up to his pool, I start to doubt my brilliant plan. What the f**k was I thinking? It’s not like he’s going to intuitively know I’m down here naked in his pool and come out and f**k me. I’m pretty much just giving my friends a free peep show.

I may feel like a dumb** but I’ll be d**d if I’m going to back out of a challenge. Looking up at my window and grinning at the three faces I see watching me, I drop my robe and jump into the deep end. The water feels amazing, and when I surface, it’s with a big smile on my face. It feels all kinds of wrong to be skinny dipping in Mike’s pool, and I love it. I give a wave to my laughing friends and start to swim a few lazy laps, not quite ready to get out.

All the lights are out around the house, but the pool lights give me enough to see by. I float on my back, thinking this was the best d**n idea I’ve ever had when a deep voice has me letting out a squeal and flapping my arms like an idiot while I flip back to treading water, hoping like hell by some miracle he doesn’t realize I’m naked.

“What have we here?”

I look up in pure horror and try to see into the darkness where the **y voice was coming from. I see the barest hint of movement before Mike steps out from the shadows with a big. s**y grin and a very amused look in his green eyes. God, he looks s**y as hell in his black T- shirt and swim shorts and a day’s worth of dark stubble on his gorgeous face.

“Mike!” I stutter out like an idiot. “What are you doing out here?”

He laughs and squats down by the edge of the

1. “Shouldn’t I be asking you that?”

I chance a quick look up at my window and stifle a gran when I see how hard my friends are laughing. Mike follows my eyes and lets out another laugh.

“Lose a dare?”

“No,” I say with as much dignity as I can muster gaze. “It was my idea.”

my chin and force myself to hold his

“It was your idea to sneak into my yard and jump naked into my pool?”

My body freezes at his words. “How do you know I’m naked?”

He laughs and scrubs a hand over his chiseled jaw. “Because I watched you drop your robe and jump into my pool, Skylar. I thought maybe I should say something, but you looked like you were having so much fun swimming laps.” He gives me a wicked grin. “I didn’t want to interrupt.”

My face is burning with embarrassment. He saw me naked? I was hoping maybe he’d just walked out a second ago, but he’d been watching me the whole time! I think about jumping out and making a run for it, but the thought of having to show him my bare a** while I make my escape has me staying right where I’m at, treading water and trying my best to not think about how d***n good he looks.

His eyes run over me, and even though I know he’s not able to see much through the water, it still has a shiver of pleasure running up my spine and my breaths coming a little quicker. I swear I see desire in his eyes, but I tell myself it’s just wishful thinking. Mike is old enough to be my dad and dropdead gorgeous. He’s always got some beautiful woman on his arm, and I have to force the thought from my mind because it always makes me so angry. I haven’t seen any women around recently, though. Now that I think about it, I haven’t seen him with anyone since right before my eighteenth birthday. Four months without a woman coming over has got to be a record for him.

He stands up, pulling me from my thoughts, and my mouth drops open when he pulls his T- shirt off, revealing the most perfectly chiseled male body in the world. My eyes run over hist pecs and rock-hard abs before admiring how f**k**g cut his arms are.

“What are you doing?” I ask when he walks to the other end and steps into the pool, slowly making his way toward me. He dips under the water and surfaces close to me.

Chapter 24

“I’m going for a swim.” He gives me a wink, and I try my best to not moon. “You made it look so appealing.”

“But I’m naked,” I practically yell, making him high. “Believe me, I haven’t forgotten.” Holy s**t! Is he flirting with me?

I’m so flustered I’m speechless. I have zero experience with guys since I’ve kept myself pure as f**g snow for Mike, but there’s no denying thngry look in his eyes. I wonder if he can see how hard my nipples are or tell how bad ussy is aching for him.

“You can always leave if you’re feeling uncomfortable

He’s less than two feet away, and the sight of his gorgeous body this close has me practically drooling.

“Are you going to turn your back if I do?”
