The Bucket List Read Online Free PDF Page A

don't want you to feel like you're alone."
    "Thank you," she smiled.
    The waiter brought their food. She'd ordered herself a lot of greasy food; sausages, bacon and eggs all fried. What the heck? She was dying anyway, clogged arteries were the least of her worries.
    "My work is doing all right," she said.
    Actually, as of two weeks ago, she was unemployed.
    "Yes, I've noticed. I'm real proud of you, Rachael."
    For some reason, that warmed her heart.
    "Can I ask you a question? It's been almost ten years and I've been a total bitch to you more often than not. Why do you still bother with me?"
    Irving looked up from his breakfast, straight into her blue eyes.
    "I never give up on the things I love."
    She looked away from the intense gaze because she saw the proof of his words. The man did love her, she had known that for years. She knew, if she ever needed him, he would be there like a shot just like he always promised. And she was positive, in a few months, she would need him desperately.
    "How's Sara?"
    She never asked about his family. Actually, she never asked any questions period. But things had changed now. She had to make amends.
    Irving looked at her and seemed to realise he had gained another inch.
    "She's fine. She'll be here tomorrow for Riptide Rumble."
    As they finished their breakfast Rae thought how her mother had long since forgiven this man for walking away from her when she was pregnant and only seventeen. She had said, if he hadn't she would never have met her soul mate, the love of her life. It was her turn now to learn a little forgiveness. She owed him that much, at least. At least when she was gone, he would have something of her to keep, a few fond memories.
    "Maybe... maybe we can have lunch tomorrow, just the two of us," she said.
    Irving smiled at her. She had never initiated a meeting before.
    "I'd love that."
    "I'll let you know where and when," she said as she stood up.
    Irving , ever the gentleman, stood up as well. Rae smiled at him a bit awkwardly then walked out of the restaurant.
    Dave was waiting for the elevator when she walked up to him.
    "Hey handsome," she smiled.
    Dave turned and gave her the smile that had weakened her knees earlier. Damn, the man was hot! His sculptured body and dark looks made him the perfect model to base any Greek god. She was already imagining his big, muscular thighs pressed up against hers and prayed that they didn't call him an animal for no reason. She was in the mood for a hot, sweaty fuckfest. She could always start with the dating thing tomorrow.
    "Hey. Didn't think I'd see you again so soon."
    The doors opened and he let her in first. She felt his eyes on her butt and smiled. This was going to be so easy.
    "So, Dave," she started when the doors had closed. "What do you do for fun."
    "I do a lot of things, Rae," he smiled slowly.
    She knew that had a double meaning.
    "And I bet you do them so well," she said with a wicked smile of her own
    "I have my moments," he admitted. "I was watching you last night. Couldn't take my eyes off you."
    "Really?"
    "Yeah. You've been on my mind since. I've never seen anyone more beautiful."
    "Thank you," she smiled.
    Maybe she could fuck him and still get to know him. That seemed like a better plan. Maybe he wouldn't bore her after just the one time, like so many men before him.
    "So, what do you do for fun?" he asked after a brief pause.
    "Oh... I'm quite fluid, too. A lot of things excite me," she said with a little smile.
    "Are you excited right now?" the animal asked, moving to stand right in front of her.
    She looked into his brown eyes and saw the need in them, saw the way his breathing changed.
    "Very excited," she whispered.
    The next second the animal descended on her hungrily, his hot lips on hers as his large hands cupped her bottom and lifted her so she was pressed against his manhood. Her eyes widened in pleasant surprise at the size of him as his tongue delved deeper into her mouth. She let out a groan as the
