The ultimate date (chapter five)
Fans, this story is getting too good to backtrack, so hang on. Hilarious.....
Now I'm the angry one. "What's so damned funny!?" At my outburst, you try to
compose yourself enough to answer; while I waited, impatiently fuming.
"I'm...giggle, giggle...sorry. I don't mean to laugh, but..." trying to catch
your now so short, of late, breath! "You're falling in love with me." Said so
demurely, I had to ask you to repeat the answer. With more confused bluster than
true anger, "What are you talking about? I don't even know what I'm doing, so
how could you possibly know?" Of course, you were not rattled, but simply looked
up at me with a look that said: "You know I'm right, so stop playing like it's
not true!" What does one say to refute a face so full of confident assurance?
I did the only thing possible for me to do. I pulled you to your feet and kissed
you. Softly, slowly, with tenderness, at first. Then, picking up force like the
waves so near, building, growing, surging forward until it breaks upon the sand
in a spray of foam and fury. Thus, did I find myself lying upon my back; your
trembling body atop me in the cold, dewy sand. "Stop, please?" I whisper against
your oh, so achingly enticing ear. "I can't stop if we go much further, and
you're much too important to me, to tempt what I know would happen." My mind
screams out for you to continue. "Let this animal, straining against the chains
of my own convention, go!" While my heart aches to be sure. "Don't blow it, E."
it says, "I know how you want her butt, don't blow it!"
To break this exquisitely dangerous spell, I ask "What now?" Your voice is husky
in reply..."What do you want?" "Oh, Baby, you already know that!" "Then stop
fighting; you're the only thing that stands between us." "Please don't put it
that way. I tried to tell you why we mustn't let this happen! Is it so hard to
understand?" Your grudging answer "No, but can't you just hold me?"
