The food turned out to be heavenly. They laughed and relaxed in each other’s company, their friendship expanding further than Maya ever believed it would. Now, opposite this man, listening to his every word, letting his deep brown eyes charm hers, she wanted nothing more than to share everything with him.

From their table, sharing the bottle of cold white wine, they were able to watch the sun gradually descend over the sea. As the sun dropped, Rhianna brought out blankets and turned on the patio heaters. Sam moved his chair once they’d finished eating, so he could sit beside Maya, holding hands and snatching a kiss while watching the waves tumble until the sun set.

“Everything okay for you guys, or can I get you something else?” Rhianna returned to clear away the dessert plates.

Maya shook her head. “No, we’re fine, thank you.” Sam squeezed her hand, his thumb rubbing gently over the back.

“Okay, enjoy the view.” Rhianna sighed and stood there for a moment, appreciating the view. “I never tire of it.”

Maya leaned her head into Sam’s chest, and he wrapped a comforting arm around her. “This is lovely,” she said.

Sam gently turned her head and kissed her. “I already know I want to spend the rest of my life with you,” he murmured, lips still brushing hers. “We can come here as often as you like.” His words warmed Maya’s heart. She wanted this too.

They walked back to Trenouth Cottage hand in hand, Sam occasionally pulling Maya in for a kiss. She could feel Sam’s arousal when their bodies met. Even though the sun had disappeared below the ocean, it wasn’t yet dark, providing enough light for them to see their way up the garden path. They couldn’t get through the front door quickly enough.

The farmhouse was dark, except for a couple of lamps in the hallway, to allow guests to see their way up to their rooms. They were both relieved that Rose and Charles had retired to bed, and they giggled like naughty teenagers as they climbed the stairs.

Outside Maya’s bedroom, neither wanting the evening to end, their passion grew as they kissed, Sam’s tongue softly finding hers, his arms tightening their hold, his fingers searching for bare flesh. Maya could feel heat pooling between her thighs, a sexual tension needing to be released. Sam was hard, pressed against her, equally turned on.

Only their clothes were in the way of flesh touching flesh…

“Come in.” Maya rummaged for her key, opening her bedroom door. She hauled Sam inside and he kicked the door shut behind them, their mouths barely disconnecting.

Maya fumbled with Sam’s shirt buttons as he tugged the zip at the back of her dress.

“Wait.” Sam stopped, pulling away. Maya felt bereft without the heat of his firm body against hers. “What about the three-date rule?”

“Sod the rule.” Maya tugged him back, urgently pressing her lips, breasts, and stomach against him, wanting the heat back.

“Oh, thank God.” He embraced her harder. She tore at his shirt, now unbuttoned, revealing his strong shoulders.

“Besides, if we count the cinema, Easter…” Maya murmured between kisses, while unbuttoning his fly, “we’re pretty much there.”

“Good, because I don’t think I can wait much longer.” Sam pushed the straps of her dress off her shoulders and it fell to the floor. “Seriously, you’re beautiful,” he whispered.

Without hesitation, he dipped his head, tenderly kissing each breast cupped in her lacy bra. Thank goodness she’d had the sense to wear matching underwear. His touch sent all sorts of feelings through her body and her mind, turning her on, her arousal becoming as urgent as his. Nothing else mattered tonight, just Sam, making her feel alive and loved. Swiftly, he twisted her around, pressing her back into his torso as he kissed the hollow of her neck, along her collarbone, sweeping her hair over her shoulder. His hands gently roamed the front of her body, sometimes firmly, sometimes as if brushing with feathers, smoothing over her stomach, hips, breasts… His fingertips trailed along the top of her underwear, then dipped gently inside.

A moan of delight escaped her, but she needed this to slow down. She wanted to savour every tender second.

“Gosh, I’m sorry if I’m a bit rusty at this,” he said.

“You are far from rusty…” Maya closed her eyes, relishing the delight and sensations Sam stirred.

And as if Sam knew, also wanting this night to last, he slowed the pace, becoming less urgent. He took his time touching her, with his lips and fingers, not rushing a single thing, so that Maya ached for him. Slowly, Sam led Maya to the double bed, kissing and caressing her, unable to let her go, wanting the heat to remain between them.

Between the twisted sheets, Maya became lost in the pleasure Sam was giving her. Her fingers combed through his hair, wanting to feel the softness of it…

“Make love to me,” she said softly.

As they made love, she felt nothing but completion, the two of them becoming one with their bodies entwined. She sensed nothing but pure adoration for this man.

Eventually, they both lay breathless and sated. Cuddled together, the sheets entangled around them, Sam continued to kiss and stroke her skin, his fingers trailing over the curves of her body, his gentle touches making her sleepy.

She felt his breath behind her ear before she heard his words.

“I love you, Maya.”

A lump formed in her throat and a single tear escaped. That was all she wanted. “I love you too, Sam.”
