Harry felt like the proudest man alive as he walked along the beach, holding Nikki's hand in his, showing every man who he saw glance appreciatively at his fiancé that she was taken and all his. Before he had confessed his feelings, he had had to put up with just being the friend when they went out anywhere together, in England especially, but now he was much more than that and that made his insides do happy flips every time he thought about it. They stopped for a few minutes so Nikki could take her sandals off, she handed Harry her handbag while she did so and he rolled his eyes.

"Why do I always end up with your handbag?" he asked incredulously and Nikki giggled as she opened it and dropped one sandal in, then doing the same with the other one. She then took the bag from her fiancé and they carried on walking along the sand, Harry entwined their hands again as they walked. They walked along in comfortable silence for a few more minutes and during that time, Harry counted at least five men who glanced appreciatively at Nikki, looking her up and down and no doubt, in Harry's mind, trying to picture her naked. Harry had glared at every single one of them and had wrapped his arm around Nikki's waist, pulling her closer to him as they walked.

"Are you alright?" Nikki asked as she felt Harry's frustration "What's wrong?"

"Every hot blooded man on this beach with a death wish seems to be looking at you and undressing you with their eyes" Harry replied moodily and Nikki giggled loudly and stopped walking. She then leant up and pressed her lips to his, running one hand through his hair.

"Well I've noticed quite a few women looking at you" she poked him in the chest "But you seem pretty oblivious to it"

"They are?" Harry enquired "Oh yeah, well..I mean...yeah they are" he added quickly and nodded confidently, even though he hadn't seen any of these women looking at him "I mean what's not to look at?" he grinned and Nikki laughed and hit him on the arm.

"Come on you"

The truth was, Harry knew, that he was too busy either shooting warning looks at the men who were, in his view, perving over his fiancé, or looking at Nikki to notice any other women. Harry then had to wonder what was happening to him, he had always known when a woman was looking at him before, he just had a problem talking to them. Deciding to veer away from the subject of his sex life before Nikki, he looked down at the woman beside him and laughed suddenly.

"What?" Nikki enquired with a frown as she looked at him, squinting slightly as she reached up and pulled her sunglasses from her head and down to her eyes.

"Nothing"

"What?" Nikki insisted and nudged him in the ribs, a coy smile spreading over her face "Tell me"

"No" Harry sighed "I'm afraid it's not material for your sensitive hearing"

"Harry tell me or I'll force it out of you when we get back" Nikki threatened and stopped walking. Harry did the same and raised an eyebrow, a smirk spreading across his face as he leant down to whisper in her ear so no-one else on the beach could hear.

"Is that a promise?"

He felt Nikki shiver slightly in anticipation and heard her breathing hitch slightly as he reached up to rub her naked arm gently, sending a rush of desire through him as well. Nikki licked her lips slowly and glanced around them at the surprisingly quiet beach before looking back at her fiancé, knowing that the desire in his eyes was mirrored in her own. She glanced down at his trousers and saw the unmistakable, to her who knew him well, bulge starting to form. Nikki chuckled and started to walk ahead of him, quite aware that Harry's eyes were running across her dress-clad figure and down her naked legs.

"Come on Harry" she called back as she turned to look at him, throwing some of her loose hair over her shoulder as she did so, her eyes shining with amusement as she saw the look on Harry's face. She knew that Harry would have his wicked way with her as soon as they got back to the house, and she also knew the longer that she delayed the inevitable of going back, the better it would be. So that's what she intended to do. "Come on" she repeated when Harry didn't move and she held her hand out for him to take. Harry glanced towards the sky with an exasperated look on his face and Nikki giggled, he then reached out and took her hand in his. "I'd like to go into Adelaide tomorrow"

"What for?" Harry asked, trying to think of other things apart from what he was going to do to Nikki when they got back to the house. He didn't need anyone glancing at him and seeing the obvious bulge in his trousers.

"Shopping of course" Nikki replied like it was the most obvious thing in the world and Harry moaned loudly.

"Nikki" he whined "We're on holiday. Don't put me through that hell. We can spend tomorrow in bed instead"

"Harry" Nikki laughed and hit him on the arm "as much as I love you, you tire me out" she murmured the last bit so no-one else would hear and Harry smiled proudly.

"It's because you're so beautiful and perfect and I can't get enough of you" Harry whispered into her ear as he leant closer to her "and I love you above anything else"

Nikki turned and wrapped her arms around his neck, bringing his head down so she could kiss him fully on the lips. She broke away just as quickly and played with a random strand of his hair.

"You're hoping that if you give me enough compliments then I'll let you take me back to the house where you'll have your wicked way with me" she smirked and Harry shrugged and smiled at her.

"I'm giving you lots of compliments because they are true" he told her and kissed her gently "But also yes, because I want to take you back to the house to have my wicked way with you" he kissed her again "Repeatedly" he whispered against her lips and Nikki felt desire build up inside her again.

"Mmm" Nikki nodded "But I want to finish our walk"

"Well how about we walk back to the house" Harry countered "Then we both win, we finish our walk, and then I get to have my wicked way with you"

Nikki considered this, she also considered messing with Harry and making him wait, but her own arousal didn't allow her to do that so she grabbed his hand and started to walk back the way they had just come.

"So how are you enjoying Australia?" Harry's mum asked him as they spoke on the phone. Harry was sitting in the armchair in the living room while Nikki showered after their passionate bouts of lovemaking, he refused to call it sex, when they had eventually got back to the house after their walk.

"It's good mum" he replied absentmindedly, glancing at the clock and realising that it was quite late in the evening in England "Shouldn't you be in bed?"

"I'm not old and decrepit yet son" his mother laughed and Harry chuckled, his eyes wandering to the living room door when Nikki walked in wearing nothing but a small towel, her body still damn from her shower and her hair wet. Harry swallowed heavily, not hearing what his mother was saying on the other end of the phone. His body reacted instantly and Nikki smirked when she saw it, not that it was difficult, he was only wearing his boxers and a thin pair of trousers.

"Sorry mum?" he asked as he realised he had been asked something.

"Honestly Harry" Anne chuckled "Is there something more interesting going on that end?"

"No" Harry choked out as Nikki smirked at him and bent over to pick up her dressing gown which had fallen to the floor, giving Harry a very nice view of her naked behind. He felt himself harden even more until his erection was pressing painfully against his boxers. Nikki's smirk grew, telling him that she knew exactly what she was doing to him and that she did not intend to relieve him. "Sorry?" he asked once more, too busy observing his fiancé to listen to his mother.

"What have you been doing?"

"We've been..." his hazy mind tried to think of what they had been doing apart from what his mind was stuck on now. "We took a few days to get over jet lag, been to...Kangaroo Island". His mind went blank and his mouth went dry as Nikki started to dry herself in front of him, her hands running over her body. "and too..." a small moan left his mouth as Nikki dried her legs, running the towel slowly over them, never once taking her eyes off Harry, even when she dried in between her legs. Harry couldn't help but bring his free hand to the front of his trousers squeezing himself slightly, watching Nikki's reaction as her eyes darkened and she swallowed heavily, her eyes darting from his eyes and his crotch, then back again. "Look mum I'll call you back, something's just come up"

Nikki giggled loudly when she heard this and leant down to pick up her towel as Harry threw the phone on the sofa and stood up. He made his way straight over to Nikki and scooped her up into his arms, making her squeal and laugh loudly, wrapping her arms around his neck as she kissed him.

Nice romantic walk along the beach :D I might even have them take a midnight walk along the beach :D
