He shows her

He takes her hands in his, and pulls her to him. She settles with her back against his chest. He lays one of his arms across her chest, and his other hand on her belly.

They talk for a bit. She pushes herself back so she is solidly against him, and he adjusts her arm so his hand rests between her breasts.

He asks how she likes her job, and how long she has been there. She tells him she’s been there a month, and likes it so far.

Jeremiah asks how her friend’s wedding had gone, as she had told his mother about it. “Did your trip contribute to this?”, as he presses his hand lightly against her belly.

Emily’s breath hitched as Jeremiah’s fingers pressed gently against her belly. His touch burned through the thin fabric of her bikini top, and she could feel the warmth of his palm even through the tension thickening between them.

"How did you know?" she whispered, her voice barely audible over the thudding of her own pulse in her ears.

Jeremiah’s lips brushed the curve of her shoulder, sending a shiver down her spine.

“3 reasons, the first is you told my mother you enjoyed the wedding, and the second reason is I have many cousins. I have seen many young ladies just on the edge of showing”

“You are being very careful when you walk, and when you pick up things. I also saw you holding your stomach as if it needed support. The last reason is my mother told me you were dressing less conservative.”

“I think the truth is your tops are being stretched by these”, as his hand slides her bikini top off her breasts.

The cool air hits her exposed breasts, putting a shiver down her back.

Emily arches slightly into his touch, her nipples hardening further under his gaze. She can feel the rigid outline of him pressing against her thigh, and her breath comes quicker.

"You knew all along," she breathes, turning her head to catch his lips—but he pulls back just enough to keep her wanting.

“It was not hard to see, if you looked at all the details. What I don’t know is how. I want you to tell me, I won’t tell anyone else.”
