âIâm still his housemate, not his personal chauffeur.â
Melanie Roberts waited by the ticket counter at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport for her friends to arrive. Waiting by the gates ensured sheâd see them faster than if she waited on the lower level by the baggage claims. She mumbled to herself as she gazed at the empty gateway. âI donât know why I let him talk me into this.â A woman turned, glaring at Melanie who shrugged. âWho am I kidding? I canât wait for Cade to return.â
The air in the terminal enveloped her in a personal sauna. What happened to the high-dollar air-conditioning system mentioned in the local newspaper? She fanned herself, trying to remember whether she put on deodorant this morning. Beads of sweat trickled between her breasts and dampened her bra. She blew out a puff of air and tucked her humidity-frizzed hair back under her hat.
An announcer interrupted her private sweltering. âFlight two-two-three-three from Dulles is on a thirty-minute delay due to heavy thunderstorms. Repeat, flight two-two-three-three from Dulles is on a thirty-minute delay.â
Melanie removed her ball cap. She ran a shaky hand through her hair. Her ruby ring caught on a few strands and she cursed under her breath. She replaced the tattered hat and tucked her hair under the frayed edges. Her heart thudded, making it hard to breathe. Her boys, Cade and Rhett, werenât on that particular flight. She checked the nearby screen. Flight one-five-two-seven from JFK International Airportâtheir flightâwas already on the ground and in the process of debarking.
Any time now, guysâŠ
In the distance, someoneâs cell phone played an old country tune, âHe Loved Meâ, and took her back to a time when things had been much simpler and her heart hadnât been broken. She hummed a few bars and scanned the crowd once more.
The image of Cade and the words to the song stuck fast in her mind. If he hadnât cheated, heâd still be mine⊠She fidgeted with the ruby ring and fought off the anxiousness that naturally came when she waited for him to return from a deployment. Nervous energy sizzled through her veins as she cracked her knuckles. She didnât know what else to do with her hands when she couldnât watch the world through the safety of her camera lens.
Where were they?
A barrage of laughter rang in Melanieâs ears and a shimmer of excitement slipped through her. She knew that baritoneâStaff Sergeant Rhett Ione. âGive me sugar, Melanie!â
Opening her arms, she turned. âRhett! Howâs my guy?â
Crushing her in his grasp, he whirled her around. âYou make coming home a blast, little girl!â
When he plopped her back onto her feet, she continued to clutch his biceps. âI missed you, but where is Cade? I thought you got leave together?â
Rhett tucked a loose lock of hair behind her ear. âLeave, yes. The same flight, no. Cade flew out of Germany and I came straight from the Gulf.â
Embarrassed by her lack of tact, she averted her gaze. Rhett tipped her chin. âHey, I know you missed me, but you have a thing for him. But Iâm still one of your best friends and only passing through. Chill. Heâs due to landââ he glanced at his all-weather watch, ââin a moment or two.â
Melanie sighed. She opened her mouth to speak, when a voice from behind interrupted her.
âExcuse me?â
Ginnifer Larkin stood a foot away and narrowed her green eyes. âAre you here to give them a ride?â She folded her arms and shifted her weight. The pale yellow sundress clung to her slender figure and accentuated her pert breasts. Her silky caramel-coloured hair fell around her shoulders.
Why the hell did Cadeâs fuck-friend have to show up? Melanie forced a smile to her lips. âIâm taking them home, yes.â Speaking under her breath so no one but Rhett would hear, she mumbled. âJust like an ex wouldâŠâ
Ginnifer chewed her ruby-red bottom lip. âWe never broke up, you know.â Her eyes lit up and a smile brightened her heart-shaped face. âYouâre home!â
When Melanie tried to turn, a pair of strong arms enfolded her and restricted her movement. Warm breath tickled her cheek and the scratch of day-old whiskers abraded her neck. While her legs turned to jelly, her heart raced. Desire pooled low in her belly.
âI missed you, Melly.â
