“That’s dangerous.”

“Shut up,” Elena laughed. “No, but seriously, I’ve been thinking about something Alexis said.”

“About the land being for sale beside them?”

Elena’s head nearly snapped around to look at Skylar. They hadn’t talked about living anywhere—except Skylar’s townhouse in the Cove—but the fact they had both been thinking of the land for sale meant something new could be in their future. Skylar smiled.

“You’ve been to Alexis and Blake’s house. It’s gorgeous. And I know the designer, Arden Greene. We could definitely talk to her about the possibility of building a house there.” She shrugged, a slight smile on her lips. “If you want.”

“Are you kidding me? A house with you in the Cove sounds perfect.”

“And Atlas.”

“And maybe some kids one day.”

“Definitely kids someday.” Skylar leaned in, kissing Elena. “I know we haven’t really talked about the future, but I want kids. You know that.”

“I do know that.”

“I know from Blake and Alexis’s experience that it’s expensive and a lot of work.”

“But having our own squishy little baby would be so worth it.”

Skylar laughed. “Well, I can’t disagree there.”

“And it’s not like we have to make that decision right now. We can focus on the new album first and see how that goes.”

“And look into a new house.”

“Definitely.”

“We have time to figure all this out.”

“Yeah, but,” Skylar’s eyes danced in the moonlight, “we could start trying to make a baby now if you want.”

Elena giggled. “I don’t think it works that way.”

Standing, Skylar sat her glass down by the pool and jumped in. She slowly walked over and positioned herself between Elena’s legs. Elena wrapped her legs around Skylar’s neck.

“There’s only one way to find out.”

Elena smirked as she arched an eyebrow at Skylar. Slowly, Elena lifted the T-shirt off to reveal that she wasn’t wearing anything underneath. Skylar let out a noise that was somewhere between a moan and an evil laugh. She spread Elena’s legs wider as she started to suck on her clit.

Pool sex with Skylar was quickly becoming one of Elena’s favorite activities. It didn’t matter if it was inside the water or out. Elena knew an orgasm was definitely on the horizon. She grabbed onto the edge of the pool as Skylar’s tongue worked its magic.

Nearly an hour later, they were both sitting contently on the infinity edge of the pool as they looked out over the ocean. Elena’s head was resting on Skylar’s bare shoulder as they held each other’s hand. She was glad she’d put the T-shirt back on as the cool ocean wind was chiller than she expected.

“So, yeah, we’ll check into that heated pool.”

Elena chuckled. “Honestly, I’m not building a house with you unless that’s in the plans.”

“I’ll call Arden as soon as we get to the Cove.” Skylar smiled, and Elena kissed her. “I love you,” Ellie.”

“I love you too, Sky.”
