the seam of her lips with his tongue. When her lips parted slightly, his tongue delved into her mouth, brushing against her own as he mimicked the action with his hips.  
    Alexa felt her already damp panties flood with moisture. Ethan’s hand that had been resting on her hip slid down under the edge of her coat and back up to find her bare skin. A lustful moan escaped her throat as he lightly traced circles along her waist and back as he continued to explore her mouth.
    Breaking away, Ethan placed his forehead against Alexa’s as he panted attempting to get ahold of himself before things went too far. “God, you taste so good.”
    Breathless herself, Alexa took a moment listening to Ethan’s pained breathing before she asked, “Why did you stop?”
    She could feel his conflict in her mind. His body clearly did not want to stop based on the rather intimidating hardness she felt pressing into her stomach before he moved away.  
    He took a deep, fortifying breath, trying to compose himself and then said, “Well, sweetheart, we are in a public parking lot, so I have to stop sometime.”
    Alexa felt the color rise in her cheeks. What had gotten into her? She was acting like some wanton teenager and when he said the words she realized she had no intention of making him stop. She was fairly certain he could have laid her down and taken her in the thin layer of snow that was still on the ground without a word of protest exiting her lips.
    It was the alcohol. Of course it was, at least that was the story she was going to stick to as she attempted to regain some of her pride even though she had sobered up a while ago. Just as she opened her mouth to explain as much, Ethan pulled out his keys and said, “Besides, we have a date.” He kissed the tip of her nose and smiled. “I have a feeling you are going to love the zoo at night.”

    The next thing she knew they were speeding along Washington Street heading for the zoo. As they were driving, he reached over and took her hand without saying a word. She couldn’t help the euphoric smile that spread across her face as she looked out the window, hiding her face from Ethan, trying to appear unaffected.  
    I can’t believe it! Oh God, it’s all happening too fast, but he is just so amazing, and the way I feel, it’s like my soul has been crying out for him my entire life and now that he has answered I am lost. He is different from anyone I have ever met. I am different just being near him. Maybe this is it, maybe this is my chance. He is what I have been waiting for, what I have been missing my whole life.
    Her heart started to race as she considered the implications of her thoughts. She had been waiting so long, convinced she would never meet anyone, yet here was this gorgeous man whose mind was gloriously silent. Her unsuccessful romantic past wasn’t due to a lack of trying. There had been several men in previous years. No, they were boys in comparison to Ethan. Boys who had clumsily pawed at her, trying to lift off her shirt or pull down her pants while they thought about how big her ass was or what excuse they were going to give to escape as soon as they had gotten what they wanted. At first, those types of thoughts caught her off guard. After a time she came to expect it and as a result, no guy ever made it past second base. Eventually, she started to avoid dating altogether.
    “Hey. Are you still with me?” Ethan asked noticing her dazed expression.  
    Alexa turned to look at Ethan and she was struck all over again with how attractive he was.  
    “Yeah, sorry, guess I was daydreaming.”
    A crooked grin lit up his face as he looked at her. For the first time she noticed his dimples. How had she missed those before? Maybe she hadn’t really seen him smile anywhere with enough light for her to notice. As if he wasn’t already the most ridiculously appealing man she had ever seen. He had to have dimples, too.  
    She was thinking about kissing each of those
