My hands are slowly rubbing small tracks up and down his back as we kiss for what feels like seconds and hours all at the same time. It’s heaven. This place, right here, right now, is heaven on earth and I don’t ever want it to end. Reality is a bitch though because come Monday, it will all end.
“We should head back, the sun is setting and I don’t think there are many lights out here at night.”
With one more light kiss to my lips we turn and head back.
Standing on the patio and cleaning the sand off our feet I take a moment to look out to what is now the dark ocean and the moon reflected off of it. I can’t help but move to his side and wrap myself in his strong arms that engulf me the moment I reach for him.
“Thanks again, Jonathan.”
“My pleasure, baby.”
“So, what’s on the agenda for tomorrow?” I ask from my new favorite place, which just happens to be tucked under his arm.
“Well, that’s up to you. Come inside and I’ll show you.”
He takes me by the hand and through the sliding glass door. He tells me to have a seat, and then goes to get something out of his bag that I now see tucked away on the side of the couch, just like he said it was. I use this moment to follow him as he moves across the room. I love his tan skin, his perfectly sculpted arms, his ass always looks amazing in whatever he’s wearing but there is something about his calves. I don’t know what it is, but his legs are my favorite part of his body.
I don’t realize how obvious my stare is until he clears his throat and gets my attention.
“Can I help you, Gracie? See something you like?” He says as he turns in a circle and then stops in a super model stance, complete with his hand on his hip.
“You are such a dork!” I can’t help but laugh out loud at his silliness.
God, I love that he is this big bad-ass Marine but he has no problem saying how he feels and isn’t afraid to be silly. He’s kinda perfect aaaannnnd I am so screwed.
“Ha! You like what you see and you know it. Hell, I’ll be the first to admit that I more than like what I see when I look at you. I have no shame in telling you that.”
“Well, that’s sweet and all but let’s get back to our agenda for tomorrow,” I say trying to keep him focused.
He plops down next to me and hands me a stack of brochures on places to visit in California. Universal Studios . . . Disneyland . . . Legoland . . . Knott’s Berry Farm . . . Medieval Times and more.
“You pick the place and we’ll go.”
“What? Anywhere? Have you been to all these places? Is there anywhere you want to go?”
“Sweetheart, I don’t care where we go. I think we’ll have a great time no matter what we do. I would say that I’m sorry that your boyfriend Justin Timberlake isn’t playing anywhere (but I’m not) because I would have even taken you to his show if it that was what you wanted to do.”
“Careful there, Georgia. You’re cute and all but I made it pretty clear the other night the seriousness that is my love for Justin Timberlake.”
“Yes, you did. Believe me, it’s clear how strong your feelings are. I cross my heart,” he says as he makes an x with his finger over his heart. “I will never disparage JT in your presence. Now, what will it be for tomorrow?”
As I put on a show of looking at the brochures I already know what I’m going to pick, but I figure I’ll drag it out a bit. I feel him staring at me out of the corner of my eye . . .
“Hmm . . . what to choose . . . what to choose?” I say as though I really have to think about it.
He leans in and puts his chin on my shoulder again and sighs. “You already know where you want to go, don’t you?”
“How do you do that?”
“Do what?”
“Read my mind,” I say hitting him with my stack of brochures.
Suddenly, I’m on my back and he’s on top of me, tickling me and saying, “Where are we going, Em?”
All I can do is scream as I laugh my ass off and struggle for air.
“Come on, tell me, Em! Where are we going?” He says as his fingers continue their assault on my sides.
