We laid in bed the rest of the evening, just talking. I learned that her relationship with her family suffered because of her work. She grew up in DC and her parents divorced when she was young. Neither of her parents lives close, so she doesn't see them very often. "Luckily, banks shut down for most of December, so I do get to see at least one of them for the holiday's," she said.

"Don't you get lonely?" 

She looked thoughtful for a minute. "Sometimes. I guess I use work as an escape." 

I nodded, completely understanding. "I did the same thing when my dad died. Luckily, my sister pulled me out of it. She helped show me there's much more to life than work. At first, I hated that she drug me out with her friends and to all her fundraisers, but now I know I'm lucky to have her."

"I'm an only child. I wish I had that."

I sensed her shift in mood and decided to change the subject. "So, do you have a bucket list?" Her eyebrows furrowed together. "Not really. Why?"

"Let's make one. I'll help you complete it." She laughed. "I don't know if I have time for that." He was thoughtful for a minute. "Okay, what about a sexual bucket list?" I watched the blush spread across her face. "Tell me something you've never done, but always wanted to do."

She laughed nervously, "Now that would be telling wouldn't it?" I narrowed my eyes and scooped her into his arms. "I'm serious, baby. I want to give you everything you desire." The look she gave me was apprehension mixed with something I couldn't quite place. "Well, I've always wanted to have sex on the beach. Ironically, I moved to North Carolina to spend more time at the beach and I've only been a handful of time since I moved." She shrugged.

I smiled brightly at her. "You know I have a very private beach house?" She shook her head. So I continued, "I'd love to take you there sometime."

"That would be nice."

"Really?" I asked. I expected her to say she couldn't go because of work. "Yeah, I mean, as long as you feed me lots of seafood while we are there. Maybe we could do a long weekend."

I pulled her into my lap and sealed my lips over hers, kissing her to show my appreciation. I think this was the first time she wasn't trying to fight me on something and it couldn't have made me happier.

The next morning we got up and made breakfast together. Serena seemed happy, so I decided to ask her to spend the day with me. "So, I have a small place at Lake Norman, a boat, and some jet skis. What would it take for me to convince you to head up there for the rest of the weekend?" I expected her to turn me down.

"None of your neighbors are affiliated with my bank are they?" I laughed. "No, baby. Besides, it's pretty secluded."

She put on her best serious face. "Okay, but you have to promise me you'll bring me home tomorrow night and you won't bother me until after the board meeting on Thursday."

I picked her up and she wrapped her legs around me. "Deal."

She giggled and squirmed until I put her down. "But you also have to take me home so I can get some clothes first." I grabbed her by the waist and pulled her flush against my body. "Baby, I prefer you in nothing." 

She smacked me on the arm. "I'm not going to the lake without a bikini." 

I laughed, "Darlin' I'll just take it off." She huffed, "Fine, but we are still going to get it and I'm still going to put it on!"

We showered together, then I threw some clothes in a bag. I had Serena put her car in my garage and I took her to her place to change and grab some clothes. She came out wearing a short little sundress, gladiator sandals, and blue aviators. Her hair was pulled up on top of her head, but small pieces still hung down. She looked stunning. I helped her put her bag in my car and then we took off on I-77 towards the lake.

I let her plug in her phone and play country music. Partly because I'm a gentleman and partly because she laced her fingers through mine and laid her head on my shoulder while she sang softly. It felt so comfortable like we were actually a couple that did things like this every day. I'd never wanted a relationship before, but damn if being with Serena didn't show me what I'd been missing.

When we got to my lake house Serena perked up. "You weren't kidding when you said it was secluded. Did you buy this thinking you would have wild nudist parties or something?" 

I chuckled. "No, I'm not a nudist, however, if you were open to the idea... I'd probably become one just to see you naked all the time." I winked, but continued on. "I had two choices, a big house with two very close neighbors, or a smaller one with no neighbors. Also, don't forget I run my own business. There are a lot of people who know who I am and who try to get to me because of that." 

She nodded her understanding. "I'm a little surprised that you didn't choose the big house." She admitted. 

"I just don't need it. This place is big enough for my family, which is pretty small, so it's good enough for me."

I carried our bags into the house and showed her around. "This place is incredible," she said as she looked out the back door leading out onto the lake. I walked up behind her and whispered in her ear, "Wait until you see the view from the bedroom." She laughed, "While I would love to spend the weekend in the bedroom with you, maybe we could also get a little sun?" I sighed exaggeratedly, "I guess." She laughed and kissed me lightly on the lips. "Thank you."

I took her to the bedroom and let her change into a swimsuit. I didn't rip it off, even though I really wanted to. She was so happy and carefree and I didn't want to ruin the moment. I let her lead me down to the dock, to the area with the lounge chairs. 

"I want to enjoy the sun." 

I shook my head, "That's such a girl thing to say." 

She narrowed her eyes at me, "I am a girl!" 

"Okay, laying out in the sun it is."

We laid out in sun for all of fifteen minutes before she complained she was hot. I found it adorable. When she stood up, I picked her up off the dock and jumped right in the water with her. She sputtered as she came up for air and pushed me away, swimming further out into the water. I swam after her and caught her around the waist. She slapped my shoulder, but wrapped her legs around me, kissing me deeply. 

"As much as I would love to fuck you right here in the lake, we probably shouldn't." She laughed out loud. "But we could take the jet skis out," I suggested. "That would be awesome!" she said, swimming towards the ladder on the dock.

We spent the afternoon riding around the lake until we were both tired, then we decided to take a nap. We held hands as we headed toward the house. I turned on the shower and stripped off her bathing suit, claiming her mouth before backing her into the shower. I picked her up, pushed her up against the wall, and entered her slowly. The shower cascaded around us as I drove into her again and again. I whispered into her ear, "You feel amazing. Your pussy is so tight and wet. It's like it was made just for me." She moaned and her pussy contracted. I could tell she was close so I swiveled my hips, sending us both over the edge.

After our shower, we lay in bed, both exhausted from the sun. Her hand found mine and she pulled me into her back, silently asking me to cuddle. "Thank you for today, Reese. It's been amazing." I wrapped my arms around her and brought my lips to her ear, "Today isn't over yet, but you're welcome. Now, get some sleep."

We both drifted off wrapped up in each other's arms.
