“Every time she looks at you she gets all dreamy eyed.” Tobey grinned and started to get up, but Ellen grabbed the elbow of his jacket.
“You’re not gonna break her heart too, are you?” Tobey sat back down, suddenly serious. “I don’t intend to.” Ellen stared him down and he was surprised by the intensity in her young eyes.
“Promise? ‘Cause I really like you.”
Callie’s niece sure loved her, Tobey thought, to be giving out such stern warnings to prospective boyfriends. His face solemn, he said, “I promise. And I really like you too.” Ellen grinned and turned to greet a new customer who had just walked up to the table. Tobey waited until Callie put the top back on her metal pot of cocoa and then grabbed her hand.
“What’s going on?” she asked, trying to pull her hand back out of his. “Where are we going?”
Over his shoulder he said, “It’s time for a little break, Miss Callie.”
“A break? Now? But what about Ellen?”
“Ellen’s got it covered. Now tell me,” he said, “What size are you?” Callie flushed and looked down at her chest. “What size am I? What kind of a question is that?”
Tobey mock-leared at her breasts. “Get your mind out of the gutter, Miss Callie.” She turned pink and he said, “What size shoe do you wear?”
“Six, but what does it have to do with…” Her words fell away as he let go of her hand and picked up one set of rental skates in a six for her and twelve for himself.
Dangling the skates from his fingertips he said, “You and I are going skating.” Callie shook her head. “I don’t think so.”
Tobey grabbed her hand again and steered her over to a bench. “Put ‘em on.
Consultant’s orders.”
Callie giggled uncertainly, but took the skates from him. Staring at them, she said,
“I haven’t skated in years.”
“No time like the present,” Tobey said, as he quickly removed his shoes and slipped his feet into the skates. “Besides, you deserve a reward for all of your hard work today.”
Tobey hoped that Callie would let herself have a little fun. With him. He saw her shoulders relax a little and breathed out an inaudible sigh of relief. And when she shot him her pixie grin, he made a new decision—to forget all about his earlier decision about not mixing business with pleasure.
If ever there was a time for pleasure, it was now.
And by god, he was going to take it.

Callie had just finished tying the laces on her skates when Tobey whirled her out onto the crowded ice skating rink. Her legs wobbled beneath her and she found herself holding onto Tobey just a little too tightly.
“I need to get my skating legs back,” she said by way of explanation, letting herself enjoy the feel of Tobey’s warmth pressed up against hers while she could. He had one arm firmly wrapped around her waist and she could feel his warm breath on her forehead. His arms were heaven to her.
“No rush,” he said, pulling her closer to him.
They skated several circles around the rink in a comfortable rhythm and for the first time all day Callie let down her guard. If she was able to contain her raging hormones even now, she thought she just might be able to keep it together until she could get home and play with the new dildo she had bought on Tuesday. Cold vibrating plastic wasn’t nearly as good as Tobey, but Callie was realistic enough to accept that it would have to do.
Suddenly, Tobey steered them over to the far, deserted edge of the rink and pointed to the sky. “Did you see that bald eagle over there?”
“Where?” Callie shaded her eyes with her hands, but all she could see on the pine trees was white powder from the fresh snowfall.
“In the forest. Come with me.”
Tobey grabbed her hand and pulled her into the dense forest with him. Callie’s skates sank into the snow, but Tobey was moving so fast, she didn’t have a chance to get stuck as she tried to keep up.
By the time he stopped, they were far enough from the skating rink that the sounds of children playing had completely faded away. Not letting go of her hand, he turned and looked into her eyes. “I guess he flew away.” Callie found herself laughing. “Was there really a bald eagle out here?” Tobey pulled her into him and leaned his face down close to hers. “Maybe there was, but all I’ve been able to focus on today is you.” Callie breathed in his scent, unable to mask the raw need his words aroused. “Don’t tease me Tobey,” she said, her voice thick.
“Not even if it makes you feel good?”
“How good?”
Callie felt the familiar liquid rush building up between her legs, pooling at the tip of her breasts.
“Let me show you.”
He guided her over to a patch of ground far beneath the huge canopy of an oak tree and pressed her back into the bark of the tree, then leaned into her, shielding her from the cold. “One day we’re going to have to do this lying down. Properly. Warm and cozy in bed.”
Callie shivered at the thought of getting to do this with Tobey one more time. In a bed, even. It was too delicious to believe. But then again so was the velvet feel of his lips as they stole her breath away. Feeling bold, she said between kisses, “I like doing it standing up. I like being bad with you.”
Tobey smiled against her lips. “Me too, sweetheart. I love the way you wrap your legs around me. How slick you get when I’m pumping in and out of you. How ready you are for me all the time.”
Callie swallowed and licked her lips. “I’m ready now,” she whispered.
Deftly he threw his gloves to the ground and unbuttoned the fly on her snow pants.
Unzipping them, he slid his warm hands onto the soft skin of her belly. “I need to see if you’re telling the truth,” he said as his hand dropped another inch, just grazing the edge of her already damp mons. “Mmm,” he murmured against her ear lobe, sucking it into his mouth, “good so far.”
The feel of his mouth against her brought goose bumps to her skin that had nothing to do with the cold. She arched her hips into his hands, forcing his fingers to slide across her swollen nub into her wet folds. “Oh god,” she moaned.
“I want to see you come again, Callie,” he said. He made several slow, torturous circles on her clit and then slipped his fingers down into her labia, finally pushing her open with one thick finger.
“You’re not gonna break her heart too, are you?” Tobey sat back down, suddenly serious. “I don’t intend to.” Ellen stared him down and he was surprised by the intensity in her young eyes.
“Promise? ‘Cause I really like you.”
