THE MOMENT HER green eyes looked into mine, I knew I was in trouble. Then she smiled at me and I knew I was screwed for sure.

“Cale, dude, we just graduated from college. I didn’t have this damn party for you to pussy-ass around. Find someone and screw her. Tonight’s mission is to get laid by the first willing girl. Not stare for two hours at some girl who is clearly out of your league.

I looked at my best friend, Jack, and laughed. “Is that so? Then why are you still standing here?”

Jack shrugged. “I just haven’t found the one yet. That’s all.”

I rolled my eyes and chuckled. “Uh huh. I’m going outside for some fresh air.”

Jack was about to say something when a blonde walked by. Her breasts were falling out of her shirt. As she walked by, she licked her lips and winked at Jack.

“And there she is,” Jack said.

He slapped my back and smiled as he turned and followed the blonde. I shook my head and walked around to the back deck that led down to the beach. I wasn’t surprised that Jack was hooking up with someone tonight. We’d been friends since first grade and, even back then, his blue eyes and blond hair seemed to attract the girls. Jack was more into one-night stands, but I at least wanted to find someone who made me feel something.

I stepped off the back deck and made my way down to the water. I couldn’t get those green eyes out of my mind. I walked to the water’s edge and looked out at the black ocean. I wonder if she goes to the University. Who did she come here with?

I shook my head and laughed. “Snap the hell out of it Blackwood.”

“Do you make a habit of talking to yourself?”

I smiled and turned around to see her standing there, giving me a smile that forced me to fight to keep my knees from shaking.

“Only when I’m alone, standing on a beach in the middle of the night,” I said.

The girl laughed and it pulsed through my body like nothing I’d ever experienced. I swallowed hard and tried to come back to my senses.

She walked up to me and tilted her head as she bit down on her lower lip. “Or when your best friend just ditched you to hook up with someone?”

“The blonde?”

She nodded. “Monica has been after your buddy all night.”

“Have we met?” I asked her, looking her up and down. I’d definitely remember this girl if I’d seen her before. She was beautiful. Her brown hair fell just below her shoulders. She had a perfect body with breasts that were begging to be held in my hands and hips that gave her the prefect hourglass figure. I’d never cared for stick figures or girls who wanted to be rail thin.

She laughed and began walking along the beach. “No, but I’ve been admiring you from afar.” She said as she wiggled her eyebrows. “At least for the last two hours.”

I smiled and followed her. “I guess that makes two of us then.”

“To think I didn’t even want to come this party. I guess we’re both lucky that I got dragged along.”

I glanced at her as she looked away and bit her lower lip. I had the feeling she didn’t put herself out there like this very often.

“Do I get your name, at least?”

She stopped and looked at me. “Maddison, but I go by Maddie. Yours?”

“Cale.”

She reached out her hand and I took it in mine. In that moment, I felt it. With the way she sucked in a breath, I knew she’d felt it too.

“Maddie, may I ask you something?”

She smiled slowly. Now it was my turn to suck in a breath.

“Depends on what you’re gonna ask me, I guess.”

I lifted my mouth and gave her a half-smile as I thought, What is it about this girl?

“Would you think it was too forward of me to kiss you? I mean, we literally just met, but you take my breath away.”

Her lips parted slightly. The moonlight was shining on her face, lighting it up in such a way that I could see her eyes searching my face.

“Do you often find yourself on alone a beach, propositioning a stranger for a kiss?” She asked with a smirk.

I shook my head. “This would be a first for me.”

She looked down the beach and giggled. “Me too.”

She looked back at me. “I can’t explain it, but you…you make me…” She laughed and shook her head, looking away. “This is crazy insane. I can’t even believe I followed you out here.”

I placed my finger under her chin and brought her eyes back to mine.

“I make you what?”

Her smile faded as she said, “You make me want more than just a kiss, Cale. And I’ve never in my life done something like this.”

I’d never had my heart beat so hard in my chest before. “Maddie…” I shook my head as I leaned down and brushed my lips against hers. She placed her hands on my chest and slowly moved them up, wrapping them behind my neck as I deepened the kiss.

I’d kissed plenty of girls, but I’d never felt anything like this before. She let out a little moan as I pulled her closer to me. She ran her hand through my hair, slightly tugging.

I pulled my lips back, attempting to get my erratic breathing under control.

“Tell me how far you want to go with this, Maddie.”

Her chest was moving up and down so fast as she eased herself down onto the ground. I followed her as she laid back on the sand and I brought my lips back to hers.

The kiss started out slow and soft. She wrapped her legs around me and pulled me closer. As I pushed my hard dick into her, she let out a moan. I began grinding my dick against her.

“Touch me,” she whispered, as she began unbuttoning her shorts. “Please touch me.”

Briefly, I felt like I should stop us from making a mistake. But didn’t feel like it could possibly be a mistake. It felt as if we had been waiting a lifetime for each other.

I COULDN’T BELIEVE the words that were coming from my lips—asking a complete stranger to touch me. On a beach. Where anyone could walk up at any moment.

The second he looked at me with his piercing, green eyes, something happened. I’d felt him watching me all night as I moved around the room. Earlier, when Monica told me about the party, and how she desperately needed a night out, I knew my best friend wasn’t going let me get out of going.

Then I saw him. Cale. It was as if we had been searching for each other. The moment we looked into each other’s eyes, we found destiny.
