this mess in the first place, after all. Now, though, it didn’t seem like such a bad mess to get into.
    “Of course, there are some rules,” he said, a sharp note of control entering his voice again. “There’s a decision to be made, after all, between the two of us.”
    “What rules?” she asked. Her heart was thumping like a gong.
    “Clothes stay on,” he said.
    That made sense. It was only five minutes anyways. So why did she feel a little disappointed to hear it?
    “And no serious touching,” Spencer continued. “We’re keeping it PG here. The point is to show you that we’re sensitive to what you like. Well, at least one of us is.”
    Jess nodded. That sounded reasonable. Sort of like a grown-up “seven minutes in heaven.” “So who’s first?” she asked nervously.
    “As long as we’re trading off,” Spencer said darkly. “I guess that would be me.”
    Ouch. Silently, she followed Spencer to the tent. He held the flap open and she went in, turning around briefly to catch a glimpse of Nate. He was standing several yards away, his back turned.
    “I’m not sure if I like this, Spencer,” she broke in as soon as Spencer had zipped the tent closed. A well of anxiety had suddenly risen in her chest. She let herself fall to a graceless seat. The grass poked through the thin bottom of the tent, pricking at her bare legs. “I don’t want to feel…you know… passed around between the two of you.”
    “Jess, no,” he said, his handsome features folding with concern. He knelt down next to her and put a hand on her shoulder. “I apologize for my comment just now. It was terribly insensitive. Forgive me.”
    She bit her lip, staring intently down. Gently, he put a finger to her chin and tilted her head up.
    “I hate the thought of someone giving you pleasure without me,” he said softly. She raised her eyes to meet his, and instantly she felt her insides melt like molten lava deep inside a volcano. His deep brown eyes penetrated hers. She was suddenly excruciatingly aware of how close his full lips were to hers—and of how much she wanted to feel them. In fact, all of a sudden she could think of nothing else.
    “When I saw you with Nate I felt so jealous,” he said, so quietly he was now whispering. His eyes were growing hazy as their faces got closer. “But I also have to be honest with you…”
    He trailed off. Their lips were now so close that only the tiniest whisper of air stood between their kiss.
    “About what?” she whispered. The heat radiating off his body mingled with hers, creating a vortex of heat that seemed to envelop them, hypnotizing her.
    “It turned me on to see you come,” he breathed.
    Their lips met. She felt the molten lava that had been simmering inside her bubbling up to the surface. The touch of his lips was firm enough to draw her in, but soft enough to intensify her already heightened desire. He let his fingers travel downwards from her chin, lightly grazing her throat and tickling her collarbone. She sank deeper and deeper into the kiss, her tongue melting with his, and everything else seemed to melt away.
    “Time’s up!” Nate’s gruff voice suddenly rang from just outside the tent. Jess started.
    Spencer broke the kiss. “That wasn’t five minutes!” he said indignantly.
    “It sure as hell was,” Nate said with just as much irritation. “Get out of there.”
    Spencer gazed at her with eyes full of reluctance. He put a hand on her cheek and she closed her eyes and leaned into it. She had almost forgotten how good his touch felt. How could she give this up?
    “I’ll see you on the other side,” he said. He stood quickly and unzipped the tent flap, quickly disappearing from view. Jess felt a pang. Clearly he couldn’t stand the thought of Nate following after him.
    Except hadn’t he said that it turned him on to see Nate pleasuring her? She felt a ripple of excitement deep inside her. Behind the shock and the guilt, hadn’t it turned her on
