Awakening Lucy

Lucy's boss Adam was getting married, and had invited her to the wedding, which would be held on a pink sand beach in Bermuda, the wedding party was travelling to the site on a cruise ship which would depart New York City. Lucy wasn't looking for a romance, but found the groom's brother both attractive and overconfident: "At my door, he waited while I took the room card off the lanyard which I wore around my neck. While I was looking down, the ship swayed a little more than I was used to, and I lurched towards Nick, and grabbed his chest for support. As I looked up at him, about to apologise, Nick gazed into my eyes, and then slowly lowered his head to mine and kissed me so gently, his lips felt as if they were just touching mine. That felt nice, it had been so long since I had kissed anybody."
