Lennart sat up. “On Wednesday.”

“In two days, huh? I hope there will be some cake.” Liam grinned. “Tell me it will.”

Lennart smiled. “Don’t worry about it. What’s a birthday party without a cake?”

“I can’t wait! I’m feeling like a little child!”

“You are still a child,” Lennart said, grinning too.

“Hey! I’m already thirty years old!” Liam exclaimed and pouted his lips.

“Did you come to work out or to mess with me?”

Liam gave him a mischievous look. “I came to do both!”

Björn sat on the white plastic chair beside the pool and scrolled through his phone. He glanced occasionally at the group of residents swimming to check if everything was okay. His colleague was also present, on the opposite side of the pool.

A glimpse of red caught his eye and Björn instinctively looked up; he expected it to be her, and he wasn’t wrong. Scarlett got into the pool and started swimming. Björn no longer paid attention to his phone. He watched her move: graceful, steady strokes up and down the pool.Had she come without her husband?Björn looked around to make sure. When he saw no sign of her partner, he pulled his chair closer to the water.

Scarlett caught his eye and swam in his direction. She put her hands on the edge splashing the water over. “Hi, Boo! How’s it going?”

Björn grinned. “I missed you.”

“Oh, really?” Scarlett asked and laughed playfully.

“Really, really. Are you here alone?” Björn asked to make sure.

“I am.” She confirmed with a knowing look. “He’s at work, so I came to see my favorite lifeguard.”

“I’m glad you were thinking about me.”

“Of course,” Scarlett said with a smile and pushed herself off the edge.

“I’ll wait,” Björn muttered to himself as he looked at her cut through the water.

After a few minutes, the red-haired woman emerged from the pool, wiped herself and lay down on one of the deckchairs, casting a look his way. Björn was barely holding it together when she finally got up and headed towards the door of the small office-storage room located right behind the corner of the big wall.

When she disappeared from view, Björn knew she must have walked through the door he had deliberately left open. He took a sharp inhale, feeling his nervousness and excitement rise. He looked around, making sure his colleague would be there to help if anyone needed it.

As he rose, he didn’t feel any suspicion that he had attracted the attention of a pair of eyes which were following his moves closely.

Björn opened the door with his card and secured it with the key from the inside. When he turned, he saw Scarlett already waiting for him on her usual spot–on top of the wooden desk. Björn was sure it was her favorite spot, because it sure was his. Scarlett had her legs crossed and hands supporting her from behind. Her hair was clinging to her body, and her smile in place. Björn approached her in a few strides and locked their lips in a passionate kiss.

“We’re kind of eager, aren’t we?” Scarlett grinned when they broke the kiss. She positioned herself so he could settle between her legs and put her hands around his neck.

“Of course. I can’t sleep at night… thinking about you, all day long,” Björn said and captured her lips once more. His hands moved over her bare back then slid down her waist and cupped her damp bottom. He pulled her body closer to feel her better;Scarlett moaned into the kiss as his erection pressed to her center.

“Boo…” she gasped when his mouth leeched on her neck.

“Yes?” Björn paused to look into her eyes.

“Nothing. Proceed.” She stroked the back of his head.

Björn smiled and kissed her full lips one more time while his hands worked on her bikini top. He took it off in no time and grabbed her exposed breasts with both of his hands. He broke the kiss and began to suck her sensitive nipples.

“Ahh–!” Scarlett moaned in pleasure and threw her head back. She pressed her legs tighter around him and proceeded to massage his scalp.
