over.
"Honestly, I don't know, Daphne."
Oh. I bit my bottom lip.
"All I know is that I can't stop thinking about you. When I close my eyes I see the green of yours. My fingers itch to feel the curve of your hips. All I want is to taste you again. And I love the way your face flushes when I talk to you. I don't really know what love is. I was kind of hoping we could figure out the whole love thing together." He pulled his belt out of the loops, tossed it on the ground, and unbuttoned his shorts.
"By skinny dipping?"
He smiled. "No. Well, partially. You said you didn't want to do it alone, Daphne. You said you wanted me. Well, I want you too. So I'm going to show you how to live by showering under a waterfall like humans are meant to do." He shoved his shorts and boxers to the ground, revealing his huge erection. "And by fucking. I should probably put that out there. Because if you're naked, there's no way I'm not fucking you. Come and get me, beautiful." He turned around and dove head first into the pool of water.
I just stood there and watched him as his head bobbed on the surface of the water.
"What are you waiting for?!" he yelled over the sound of the cascading water.
What am I waiting for? I grabbed my shirt and pulled it off over my head. I quickly unbuttoned my shorts and pushed them down my hips, leaving me in only my one-piece bathing suit. But then I paused. I had never been skinny dipping in my life. I looked over my shoulder to see if there were any passersby.
"All of it, Daphne."
How was I ever supposed to fall in love if I was scared of giving all of myself to someone? I wanted to give myself to Rob. And I wanted him to give himself to me. I closed my eyes and tried to ignore my hands shaking as I pulled the straps down my shoulders.
"Stop."
I opened my eyes, embarrassed that I was making this such a big deal. But I had only had sex in the dark under sheets before. At least until yesterday with him, but I hadn't taken off my shirt.
"Keep it on. I like it."
I smiled. No one liked my one-piece bathing suit. He was more patient that he realized he was. Patience and passion. Really, what was I waiting for? I ran onto the rocks and leapt into the air. I landed in the water with a splash beside him.
When I came up for air I thought he'd be right there, but he was swimming toward the waterfall. I swam after him, taking a deep breath and going under the cascading water.
"Hey." He grabbed my arm, pulling me toward him as soon as I was on the other side.
I wrapped my legs around his waist, very aware of his hardness pressed against me. "Hey."
His wet hand went through my hair. "I'm sorry that I left."
I shook my head and pressed my forehead against his. "I'm sorry that I pushed you away."
"Do you want to talk about it?"
"No. Not here." I pressed my palms against the muscles of his back. "Not right now."
"Hmm." He kissed my cheek and then the side of my neck. His breath was warm against my skin.
I didn't want to talk. I didn't want to shower under the waterfall. I just wanted him inside of me again. Instead, I heard the click of a bottle opening in the darkness and then his scent was suddenly stronger. "We're really going to shower?"
"Was something else on your mind?" Before I could answer, his fingertips were massaging my scalp. His soapy fingers wandered through the length of my hair. He grabbed the ends of my hair and gently pulled, tilting my head back. His fingers once again found my scalp and slowly massaged me. All I could smell was him. And for some reason, the idea that I was covered in the same alluring scent turned me on even more. He gently tugged my hair again.
I moaned and tilted my hips, pressing myself against his erection.
He took a step forward, letting the water cascade down onto my soapy head as his lips met mine. It was different than it had been before. Maybe it was just in my head, but his kisses seemed seductive and sensual. There was no sense of urgency anymore, just passion. I could barely breathe
