All the waiting, all the anticipation, all the hidden emotions erupted into that searing kiss. Isabella reached around Kelsey’s middle and pulled her closer.

After several moments Isabella felt Kelsey loosen her hold and they began to softly caress each other’s lips in the most luxurious of kisses. Heated breaths with quiet moans were the build-up to another scorching kiss. When their tongues touched, once again Isabella felt her heart open grasping for more of Kelsey. If this was how she felt kissing this incredible woman, Isabella couldn’t imagine what would happen next.

They pulled apart, both heaving for needed breaths.

Isabella looked into Kelsey’s eyes with amusement. “Go back to being friends. Are you fucking kidding me!”

Kelsey chuckled. “I wasn’t sure how you felt.”

Isabella tilted her head. “Let me show you.”

She grabbed Kelsey’s face and pressed their lips together in a long, soulful kiss. Isabella took her time, gently touching her tongue to Kelsey’s, softly exploring her sumptuous mouth and ever so slowly pulling away.

With her lips just touching Kelsey’s, she whispered, “That’s how I feel.”

Kelsey smiled and Isabella could see the emotion in her eyes. Too soon, too soon, too soon, she chided herself. Oh, who was she kidding, she could see love in Kelsey’s eyes.

“I don’t want anyone to know yet,” Kelsey said. “I want to keep this for just us.”

Isabella nodded. “You know, right before you walked up, Dana told me she’d share you with me.”

Kelsey’s eyes widened. “She did?”

“Those girls love you and want you to be happy. They also don’t want you to be alone.”

“I’m not,” Kelsey said with a smile and a sweet kiss to Isabella’s lips.

“I know we have more to talk about, but while we’re alone,” Isabella said, wrapping her arms around Kelsey’s shoulders and crawling onto her lap, “all I want to do is keep kissing you.”

Kelsey smiled and kissed Isabella on the cheek then below her ear. Isabella melted into Kelsey’s arms when she ran her tongue along the pulse point in her neck.

“Oh, God, Kels,” Isabella moaned.

She felt Kelsey pull her even closer until her center was flush against Kelsey’s stomach. Isabella found Kelsey’s lips once again and as she slid her tongue in Kelsey’s mouth, she ground her hips into Kelsey.

“Fuck, Bella,” Kelsey groaned.

“Hey, Dana. Where’s Mom?” They heard Emma yell down on the beach.

Isabella pulled her lips from Kelsey’s and widened her eyes.

“Ignore them,” Kelsey said, capturing Isabella’s lips once again.

Isabella giggled. “I guess we’ve been missed. What is it with your girls? They like you.”

Kelsey laughed. “They like you, too.”

Isabella took Kelsey’s face in her hands and smiled. “I know we won’t get to dance tonight, but I’ll play our song and think about you.”

“Don’t give up, Bella. Maybe I can sneak out of my room,” Kelsey said, wiggling her eyebrows.

Isabella couldn’t keep from laughing. “They’re supposed to be sneaking away from us!”

Kelsey shrugged. “We’re having more fun.”

“Mmm, we definitely are now,” Isabella said in a sultry voice as she kissed Kelsey again.

A few moments later she pulled away, stood up, and offered her hand to Kelsey. “We’d better go.”
