Holy shit.

Casey is beautiful.

We had talked and hung out with the "Boaters", as Casey has come to call them, for 4 hours and when they had to head back, they had dropped Casey and I off at the dock for the lake house.

We'd walked up the dock and into the house where Casey had told me to go change for dinner.

I did, grabbing my clothes and a towel and shutting the bathroom door behind me.

I dried quickly and pulled on my clean clothes. I fought briefly with my stubborn hair before just letting it be and stepping out of the bathroom.

That's when I had seen Casey.

He wore bright white high tops, a tight, dark blue shirt that matches his eyes, and Khaki's while I'm wearing a black shirt and the same Khaki's I wore to my business meeting yesterday.

Casey smiles when he sees me and I blush, feeling self-conscious.

"You look great." Casey murmurs and steps towards me.

I blush and smile sheepishly. "S-so do you." I stammer.

"So, we're going out to dinner, obviously, and we're going to the best restaurant on the lake." He says and I smile.

"What's it called?" I ask and he smirks.

"You'll find out when we get there." He says and I groan.

"Why can't you just tell me!" I whine and his smirk groans.

"Because I like to watch you writhe." He says in a husky tone and my blush deepens.

"Sadist." I mumble and he smirks.

"Only sometimes." He replies and my eyes widen as I drop my gaze. He steps closer to me and tilts my chin up.

His eyes are so fucking beautiful, and I can feel his muscles through his shirt.

"Let's go, the reservation is at 6:30 and then I thought we could come back here and watch a movie maybe?" Casey asks, looking hopeful.

I pretend to ponder that. "What movie?" I ask.

"Anything you want." He says and I smile.

"Anything?" I ask and he smirks.

"Within reason. No Scooby Doo." Instantly I frown.

"What!?" I whine and he grabs my hand. "No Scooby Doo?? Are you for real?"

"Yep." He says cheerily, leading me downstairs to the front door.

"B-but Scooby Doo!" I whine and he smirks.

"No."

"Please." I beg and his smirk grows.

"I haven't even done anything and you're already begging?" He asks, his husky tone making my blush return.

"Ca-Casey." I stammer as he opens the front door.

"Hm? What is it luv?" He asks, leading me down to his car.

"I will never beg you for anything." I say defiantly and he smirks as he opens my door.

"You already have. And you will definitely end up begging for me when I'm done with you." He says and I turn so red Casey giggles. I climb into the passenger's seat and shut the door. He comes around the other side and hops in the driver's seat.

"Sh-shush." I order as he opens the door and he starts laughing again.

He starts the car and smirks at me.
