DADDY'S GIRL
Chapter 7 -- One step forward
Lucy awoke the next morning feeling totally refreshed after a good night's sleep and found herself looking forward to the day with a sense of excitement she wouldn't have believed possible on the flight out.
Meeting Jessica and Danny the previous day and the time she had spent around the pool with them had been an unexpected and very enjoyable surprise for her. Then, when he had come to her rescue that same evening, it had completed an almost perfect day for her.
However, the fact that she had realised that she had feelings for him after just a few hours had come as a total shock, and she really wasn't sure how to deal with it.
One thing she was certain of though was that she was hoping she would spend a lot more time with the adorable 3-year-old and her very desirable father.
Taking a quick shower Lucy dressed, slipping on her leopard print bikini with a long t-shirt over the top so that she was decently attired for breakfast. With her flip-flops on her feet, she made a final check in the mirror and pulling her long dark hair into a pony tail she nervously headed to the restaurant wondering if and when she might see Danny again.
A little hesitantly she entered the breakfast room, once again conscious about being by herself.
"LUCEEEEEEEEEE!"
She had barely taken half-a-dozen steps inside the door when a loud shriek interrupted her concerns and everyone in the dining area looked up to see a small blonde bundle of energy hurtle across the floor towards her.
"Well, good morning to you Jessica." She picked her up and grinned as the 3-year-old leapt at her and wrapped her arms about her neck.
"Mornin." Jess giggled, "I save you a seat, come and see."
She wriggled out of her arms and taking her hand led her across to the table where Danny was sitting.
"Hi." Lucy greeted him shyly.
"Hi." He smiled up at her sending a familiar shiver down her spine and starting her pulse racing yet again.
"Jess wanted to save you a seat." He continued indicating a third chair at the table, "If you want to join us that is?"
"Thanks, as long as you're sure you don't mind."
Gratefully accepting the offer Lucy sat down with them for breakfast, immediately realising how much she had hoped that she would see both of them again.
"Are you kidding. Jess wouldn't let me forget it if we didn't sit with you."
His easy lopsided grin set her heart racing yet again.
Any uneasiness at being by herself completely disappeared as she sat and listened to little Jessica who couldn't seem to stop talking in her excitement.
"We're going to the seaside." She informed Lucy happily, "You can come to. Please?"
"Jess." Danny interjected, switching his attention to the brunette again, "Lucy might have things she wants to do by herself."
"No, no... I... I'd love to. If you don't mind." She answered shyly, looking back at him so their eyes met, sending another wave of excitement through her body.
"As long as we're not intruding on your holiday?" he stared into her eyes unable to tear his gaze away.
"You're not and it sounds like a lot of fun."
"Yay, Lucy is coming to the seaside." Beside them Jess started to wriggle excitedly in her seat.
With a grin Lucy pulled her eyes away from his and grabbed the little girl, tickling her and making her laugh.
Their plans agreed the three of them finished their breakfast and went off to collect whatever they needed for a trip to the beach, meeting ten minutes later in front of the apartments.
Once again Jessica happily settled herself between the two adults holding hands with each of them as they took a leisurely stroll down towards the seashore.
Settling themselves on the sand they laid out their towels and stripped down to their costumes, Lucy feeling slightly embarrassed at the scantiness of her bikini.
"Daddy, I want to go in the sea." Jess looked imploringly up at Danny with her big blue eyes.
"Sun cream first." He informed her picking up his daughter and tickling her.
Squealing with laughter Jessica wriggled in his arms, "Stop daddy.... Stop."
Smiling he put her down and she immediately clambered onto Lucy's lap.
"Sun cream!" he told her again.
"I want Lucy to do it." The three-year-old declared resolutely.
"It's ok, I don't mind." Reaching for the sun screen she started to cover Jessica in the protective lotion as Danny put on his own.
With the little girl finally done Lucy began to apply her own sunscreen, rubbing it onto her legs and front.
"Would you do my back please Danny." She glanced coyly across at him and lay face down, untying her bikini top.
"Oh err.... yeah sure." He swallowed hard, the sight of the gorgeous brunette laying in front of him almost naked making his cock twitch in his swimming shorts.
Squirting some lotion onto her back he began to massage it in, the feel of her soft skin under his hands creating even more of an unwanted reaction inside his shorts.
Although he was careful to avoid any indiscrete touching, he couldn't help but brush the swell of her breasts with his fingertips as he covered her back and sides with the cream.
Laying as still as she could Lucy tried to resist the sensations his touch was creating inside her until, when his hands brushed her tits, she groaned softly with desire.
"Sorry." He mumbled quickly pulling his hand back.
"It's ok... I..." She bit her lower lip trying not to sigh with pleasure, hoping that the dampness wasn't showing through her miniscule bikini bottoms.
"How about doing mine?" He interrupted whatever she was going to say and quickly rolled onto his stomach to hide the rather obvious lump tenting out his swimwear.
"Sure." Lucy retied her top and returned the favour, trying to stay calm and keep her breathing under control as she ran her fingers over his muscled back.
"Where did you get this?" she traced a fingernail lightly over an old six-inch scar on his side.
"Oh that, it's nothing." He answered casually, "Just something I did at work."
Lucy stared down at him trying to stop her heart from bursting out of her chest as her emotions took control of her. Annabelle had told her to have a holiday fling and get herself laid, not to fall in love, and that's what she realised she was doing.
She was falling for someone she had only known for a day.
"Sea daddy." Jessica interrupted her thoughts and she quickly finished rubbing the sun screen on him.
