It was cold. There was an unsettling, lonely chill to the air. The orange wash across the lake did not warm her heart the way it used to. Something was missing that she could not place.
A brisk breeze from the east washed through her hair and gave the calm lake a gentle swirl. The reflecting sunset broke into calm waves like the sunrise against a distant desert heat. A wave of her hair brushed down across her cheek, given little extra warmth to her cool skin. A warm stream broke the chill to the air and parted the hair away from her cheek. Her skin rose from the new sensation and gave her cause to smile. A produced breath traced back along her flesh and ran along the back of her neck. She craned her head forward to give her gentle suitor access to her delicate spine. The warm breath trailed down her neckline, sending a comforting chill down her back. She closed her eyes and sank into the moment.
A pair of fingers brushed lightly across her barren cheek. She leaned into the warm touch expecting a loving hand to cup her. She found air for her effort and was instead joyfully surprised by the same two fingers retracing the course of the warm breath. Gently, barely making contact with her skin, the fingers ran down to the edge of her soft blouse. Her eyes sprung open in shock as she felt the parting of her blouse. A second set of fingers had found their way in front and had undone the loose fitting buttons. In her mind she fought the insistence. Her body refused. The first pair of fingers continued down her back, taking away her inhibitions as the blouse fell from her shoulders. She found herself swaying her hips from side to side as the unrelenting fingers hooked inside her flowing skirt and slid them from her legs.
The setting sun had fled the landscape, leaving only a hazy glow. The comforting light of an impartial moon gradually took its place, embracing her in ecstasy. Could this be happening? Could she be so lucky this night, which seemed so empty but now had meaning? No, she mustn't think such things. This was real. The cool air tickling her exposed skin was proof enough.
She closed her eyes and entrusted him with the night. A warm hand encased hers and led her towards the lake. She could hear him part the edges of the water and anticipation overcame her. She wanted to stop, knowing that the autumn cool would be much stronger in the water. But again her body would not indulge the needs of her mind.
She continued on, first feeling a sharp chill up from her right toe, then the cool water caressing her legs. She had followed waist deep before she had to stop. The warm hand loosened. A second hand cupped over the top of the first. A wave brushed against her side, washing under her breast. She opened her mouth to object to his obvious approach. Her unrealized objection was met with the fiery connection of his hot lips. Warmth she had not felt saturated her skin and filled her body and suddenly the cold did not seem to matter anymore.
His lips fit hers perfectly. The undying kiss was soft, but forceful. Demanding, yet forgiving. For every ounce she accepted from him he received just as much. Her body felt afire with life and passion. His strong arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her close to him. She found solace there as he cradled her entire body against his exposed flesh. She trusted him entirely and let go all thought and strength.
He could have done anything to her. He broke the kiss and ran the tip of his lips down her right cheek. She leaned to the left, allowing him to continue his pursuit to her neck. He stopped several times, sealing his lips to her skin and gently running the tip of his tongue in a circle across her flesh. Her neck was his true goal, one that he reached with passion. He entrapped the curve with his strong lips and devoured her as if to drain her soul.
She could not let him have all the glory, though her body was more than willing. She slid her hands around his side and up the center of his back. She held on tight below his neck, while she allowed the other to explore his form. She traced down the middle of his back, breaking only at the touch of his soft behind. She ran down this soft curve with the back of her fingers, letting out a soft moan in the process.
