      June, 2001-

      "Make love to me, Jackson," 18-year-old Carly Dixon demanded huskily, gazing up at her best friend- and more recently, boyfriend- from the bed of his F-150 truck.

      J.D. Brewer’s dark brown eyes flicked back and forth between hers, searching them. How had she known that her use of his first name, not his nickname, would drive him insane with lust for her? Hell, he hadn’t even known. Are you sure, Carly?

      Not that he didn’t want to. He’d been ready for months, but she hadn’t, so they’d waited. Apparently graduating from high school had flipped her ‘I-can-have-sex-now’ switch. Thank God! Too bad, though, that she’d waited so long.

      He left in a week for the Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego. And after that, he was going for his firefighter certification before starting his four-year stint with the United States Marine Corps.

      He’d barely have time to familiarize himself with her body before he had to go. But at least he wouldn’t be leaving a virgin.

      Coming back to her, J.D. stared down at her, the stars in the clear summer sky reflecting back at him in her blue eyes. Mentally, he begged her to be sure, to be ready, to not change her mind. He saw a smile bloom beautifully on her face, watched her cheeks flare coyly when she looked away for a moment. He held his breath, certain she was going to shake her head no, that she wasn’t really as ready as she’d thought.

      But she looked back at him, and nodded. I’m sure, J.D. I want it to be you. I can’t imagine my first time with anyone else.

      He’d never heard sweeter words in his life. Thank God he’d decided to bring a couple of condoms tonight, just in case, knowing they’d be alone for most of it. He’d actually taken to carrying them with him months ago- wishful thinking that hadn’t panned out. She’d given him no indication in the last few days that she was ready, and he’d nearly left them home when leaving earlier this morning for graduation.

      But here she was, lying beneath him in the bed of his truck in the middle of Stagecoach State Park, after they’d just had a satisfying- and frustrating- make-out session, telling him she wanted to have sex with him. He still couldn’t believe his luck.

      Dropping his head, he put his forehead to hers, a gesture he knew she found incredibly sweet. I promise, Carly, I’ll do my best to please you.

      She smiled. You already do, J.D.

      Unsure what to say to that, he decided not to say anything, and instead began undressing her. When they were both naked, he laid his lips on hers, then moved slowly down, kissing her chin, her neck, her breasts. This, at least, he knew how to do. Though they’d never gone all the way, they had messed around quite a bit, satisfied each other manually as well as orally.

      While his lips and tongue worked over her nipples, he brought one hand to her slim thigh, gently parting her legs to touch her center. His eyes lifted to hers in surprise, and Carly blushed again. Curious, J.D. looked down. While he’d been near that particular area many times, he’d never seen it so… pretty. She’d trimmed her garden, he thought with boyish humor, and while he’d never disliked her natural blonde curls, he found he appreciated this neater look.

      Looking back up at her, his brown eyes shining with pleased humor, he said, You planned this, didn’t you?

      She looked away innocently, as if offended he’d accuse her of such a thing as seduction. I have no idea what you’re talking about.

      He grinned and lightly brushed a finger through her moist folds, making her gasp as her eyes closed. Well, I was just down there a couple days ago, and I don’t remember it looking like that.

      Carly’s eyes opened, sparkling with starlight. Maybe I planned it a little. More like a ‘just in case’.

      Surprised at their similar thinking, J.D. laughed and reached into his pants pocket, showing her the condoms he’d brought. Interesting how we both had the same ‘just in case’ supposition, don’t you think?

      She inhaled quietly, happily, then said softly, It must be fate.

      J.D. smiled again, nodding. I think you’re right. And who are we, mere mortals, to mess with fate? His fingers stroked softly over her inner thigh, and he felt her muscles quiver.

      She opened her legs wider, an invitation. Indeed.

      He couldn’t resist the offer, and quickly donned protection before positioning himself between her thighs. He lowered his head to kiss her gently, drawing it out as he inched closer, afraid to just go for it. When the very tip of him brushed against her, she stiffened and inhaled sharply.

      He saw panic in her eyes, and a second later she said shakily, J.D., I’m kinda scared.

      J.D. felt his whole body shake with the force of his disappointment, but he knew if she told him to get off her, he would, no matter what it cost him. His heart, his pride, his sanity. All very likely. Without realizing it, he shook his head in denial.

      Her lifted brows told him he’d done something she hadn’t expected, and he realized he’d essentially told her no, that she couldn’t stop now. Trying a smile to lighten his words, he said quietly, Carly, think of all the reasons you had just a few minutes ago to do this. Fate, remember?

      She smiled, already feeling better. Joking, she said, You’d say anything right now to get me to agree.

      He couldn’t
