It was by chance we met. It was the right place, and the right time. For this, I would be eternally grateful, even though we never saw each other again after that night.
Like many others, I was in the Hamptons for Spring Break. It was a welcome change, even though going had not been my first choice. As we got closer to the sun and the sea, however, my mood began to change and I started to look forward to it. Perhaps it was this mood that set things in motion. I had cast off (albeit temporarily) all the reservations and rules I usually follow. I didn't plan to be a girl gone wild, but there was just something in the air.
When we arrived at our beach house, the first thing we did was go down to the beach. It was glorious, feeling the sun on my skin, the water at my feet. I felt freer than I ever had before. The days passed in a blur, and soon enough the last night of our break arrived. We were out to dinner, celebrating our last night, when I saw him. He ambled past the restaurant, then five minutes later went past again with an ice cream. He was alone, and I couldn't help but stare as I watched him with his frozen delicacy. I felt something stir in me as he passed, and I had to talk to him. I realised there was silence around the table -- I had stood abruptly and knocked my drink over. My friends stared at me, and I managed to stammer out an excuse and left, aware that they were watching me but not really caring. I had to go after him.
As I hurried along the path, my head was starting to argue with my heart, or rather, my nether regions. My head, thankfully, was starting to lose the battle, and I was nearing a somewhat unused jetty when I realised I was only a few metres away from him. He stopped as if he sensed my presence and turned. Meeting his eyes with mine was one of the most intense moments of my life. If a look could be that powerful, I wanted to know what a touch would do. I took a step forward, trying to think of something to say, but nothing could convey what was running around in my mind.
We stood there, until he closed the gap between us. His presence was intense, mesmerising. I couldn't look away, couldn't move.
He was the first to speak. I hadn't thought about what he would sound like, and while he didn't have an extremely deep voice, it was perfect for his appearance. There was a hint of an accent, but I couldn't quite figure it out. I had never been good at placing accents, not to mention my focus was more on his lips. They definitely looked like they could do amazing things.
He then took my hand, lacing his fingers with mine. He had a firm grip, and his hand matched mine perfectly, as did his height. He led me further along the jetty, away from the maddening crowd. I was grateful as I didn't want to be anyone's late night floor show. I had eased up a lot the past week or so, but was not ready to embark on a night of voyeurism.
We sat down on the edge of the jetty. He placed his arm around my shoulders and I leaned against him, watching the water lap against our feet. It was nice and cool against my warm skin, the perfect antidote to what I was feeling in his presence.
I placed my hand on his thigh. It was an instinctive action, suggestive without me throwing myself at him entirely. That was not my nature. He responded with a kiss on my shoulder, trailing slowly towards my neck. It felt amazing. We turned to face each other, rising to our knees. He pulled me to him in an embrace, and those lips that I had noticed earlier met mine. I was not new to kissing, but this was one of the best experiences to date. He was equal parts gentle and rough, and knew exactly what he was doing. His tongue gently met mine, and it was of the single most erotic kisses I had received to date. His arms around my back held me closer, and one hand slid slowly down towards my bikini bottoms, playing with the ties that held them together.
