Achieve or die trying
One day. That's all he could bargain with Self. And it was nearly enough. One day, from dusk till dawn, only he and Sara and the warm sunny weather of an LA beach. They deserved a break after all. Predominantly, she deserved a break and he would make that one day worthwhile.
He didn't tell her about it, for it was a surprise. He simply nudged her from her sleep in the early hours - it was still dark outside – and answered her curious questions only with two words – Trust me. And God, she did.
He drove to a quiet, empty strip of the beach and took out a blanket, bathing in her bubbly laughter of surprise and enthusiasm. They watched the sunrise together, spooned upon the blanket, the heat from his body pressed against her back warming the flesh, the words whispered by his hot breath into her ear warming her heart.
Later, they went to have a bath, though they didn't have their swimsuits. Such petty things didn't matter anymore. They kissed heatedly, letting the water cool their heads and as the noon was drawing closer, they splashed and played like two little kids released in a water-park. They touched and they swam and they kissed and they laughed.
They had burritos for lunch and both loved it immensely, they laid lazily in the sun and exchanged childhood stories and little secrets with details about one another. Late afternoon, they walked the beach and Michael picked up pebbles and Sara picked up seashells and they kissed and touched some more.
They had ice-cream for dinner, then they returned to their blanket and watched the sunset together before their started to kiss anew, this time more heatedly and urgently, the boldness of their touches and kisses and caresses growing with the subsiding light.
They made love and they lay entwined together afterwards as they whispered how much they loved each other and how much they wanted this to work. Them to work. Sara asked him to run away with her right then and Michael loved the idea and already started to plan how to accomplish this insane notion. And sometime in the early morning hours, they got up and kissed and drove back to the warehouse, returning to their real lives. They were changed however, for now they've got to taste the sample of the life they could one day have, and it made them work even harder, for if just the sample was this divine, the whole package must be worth to achieve or die trying.
