Second Chance Secrets

Chapter Eleven

Sam had been thinking about Jess a lot over the passed few days. His dreams had once again become filled with her presence. Well she hadn't stopped starred in his dreams since the night he met her, but the dreams had slower down a bit. Now they were back in full force. He had not slept a full night since he had returned without dreaming of her. 

That night three years ago was still etched into his memories, and if he was honest with himself, very much a part of his dream state. He just couldn't help himself. Jess was one of the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her long dark hair was like a flower always pulling him in. Then there were those curves that she wore to perfection.

Before Jess, his women had been tall and leggy. Now he just couldn't see himself with anyone that wasn't shapely. After meeting Jess, if the woman didn't have the BBH as he called it -breast, butt and hips- he just wasn't interested in taking her out or worse, sleeping with her. Besides, he hadn't really been interested in anyone but Jess. It was surprising to his friends, but that was just the way things had gone.

Seeing Jess again had brought out every feeling he had tried to suppress. Plus they had come back even stronger than ever. Maybe that was why he had forgiven her so easily. Well that and the fact that she really wasn't to be blamed. He really need to asked her out. 

Sam started thinking and planning. He would take her to dinner. They could do lunch too and a movie. Maybe after the movie they could go back to his hotel room and spend some time there. He would do that as soon as he found the right time to ask her out. 

Meanwhile, he would spend some time with his daughter. He would have to ask Jess if Emily liked ice-cream. And where the ice-cream shop was so he could take her there. They could go to the park too. And the playground. Maybe a trip to the beach could also be arranged. That way he could introduce her yo the sea. He had quite a few ideas on how to spend time with his daughter. It was time to play catch up.

There was a slight sound that caused Sam to look up. Jessica was walking towards him. Seemed the sound had been the door. She stopped at his side just as he got the window down.

"I was going to wait here a little longer," he told her.

Jess smiled. "I thought I had given you a time to be here?" she asked.

"I know," was Sam's reply, "but I couldn't wait a minute more in my room. I thought if I drove here I could wait out some of the time here." He tried to give her his best imitation of a pout.

Jessica laughed. She just couldn't help it. He was really cute when he did that. "Come on inside. I'll introduce you to everyone. Truth is, I figured you'd be here early."

Sam got out and followed her up the driveway.
