new objective is to get home alive and make Trish his.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
His chest tightened and before long, he had a hard time regulating his breathing. Finally, he slowed, turned and ran the opposite direction. He'd jog in the heat of the day rather than watch Ringer woo his girl. Instead, he ran sprints near the volleyball nets until he couldn't stand it a moment longer. After a while, he walked back toward his quarters, the long way. The path that would take him back by Delaney's tent. When he realized what he was doing, he almost turned around and headed back for more sprints.
Until he saw Delaney step out of the shower tent wearing clean shorts, a T-shirt and carrying her robe, towel and toiletries in hand. That robe was the clincher.
Tuck's groin tightened on sight at how beautiful she'd been wearing it last night in the moonlight. And how naked, soft, warm and wet she'd been beneath.
He sped up, determined to catch her. What he'd say when he did, he didn't know. Tuck only knew he had to say something. This deal with Ringer was eating at him and somehow it had to stop.
Before he reached her, Ringer jumped out from another path, carrying a giant teddy bear with a big red bow tied around its neck.
Delaney ground to a halt and laughed.
Tuck's gut knotted at the sound. Even her laugh was sexy. Damn.
She accepted the teddy bear, hugging it close and burying her nose in the soft fake fur.
Where in hell had Ringer gotten a teddy bear in the desert?
Wherever he'd acquired it, Delaney was enjoying it more than Tuck liked. She leaned around the bear in her arms her lips puckered, aiming for Ringer's cheek.
Ringer turned at the last second and her kiss meant for his cheek landed square on his lips. The asshole grinned, captured Delaney's cheeks between his palms and kissed her again. "I knew you'd taste that sweet. And that's just the beginning."
Tuck's fists balled and he lunged forward. Before he'd taken two steps, Delaney was shaking her head. "Cory, I don't—"
Ringer pressed a finger to her lips. "Don't decide anything. I'm not done yet. Be watching."
Ringer left before Delaney could complete her sentence.
Damn. Surely she'd been about to tell him to take a hike. After kissing her like that, she should have slapped him.
Unless...
Tuck stopped still in his tracks. Was it possible she could fall for Ringer?
After last night?
Delaney stared down at the bear. "I can't take you to the shower." She turned toward her tent, her gaze finding Tuck standing like a lunk in the middle of the path.
Her smile immediately turned downward on the corners. She marched toward the tent, passing him with barely a glance. "What are you doing here, Tuck?"
"You kissed him."
"So?" She stopped in the doorway.
"Why did you let him kiss you again?"
"Why does it matter to you?" She hugged the bear closer, like a shield between her and him.
Tuck wanted to rip the damned bear from her arms and tear it to shreds. "You don't love him."
"I could learn to love him. At least he cares enough about me to share his feelings."
"Is that what you want?" He gripped her arms, the fuzz of the bear's fake fur burning against his skin. "You want me to share my feelings? I'll share. I'm pissed as hell."
"I don't see why?"
"You know damn well why."
"I know that you aren't into commitment. I know from your track record that you've pushed away every women you've ever let closer than a one night stand. "
"I didn't care about them."
"And you care about me?"
"Yes."
"Enough to say three simple words?"
"What words?"
"Oh, forget it. We have nothing left to say. I'm done." She ducked into her tent and closed the door behind her.
"We're not done until I say we're done," Tuck practically shouted, making the group of soldiers in uniform passing by at that moment turn and stare. "What are you looking at?"
"Man, you need to turn down the volume. Some people are still asleep," a staff sergeant said.
Tuck wanted to tell the staff sergeant to shove it, but thought better of it. He outranked him and therefore had to set the example. And he wasn't doing a good job of it. Which made him even madder.
