Ginger awoke from her nap smiling at her husband who was still laying on the bed with her, his arm around her shoulder. He appeared to be in deep thought. "Darling." She said lifting her head and thing bringing her lips to his in a kiss. "What are you thinking about?"
"Just about how much my life has changed since being on this island. You for one thing. Never did I think I would have anyone like you." He said kissing the top of her head. "I love you. It just amazes me that you actually love me too."
The starlet smiled and snuggled closer to her husband. "Of course I do. You're wonderful. You are probably the first man to ever respect me. So many men in Hollywood just wanted to use me. They never cared about me at all. Just out for what I could do for them. They only saw my beauty and nothing more. You saw more than that. And I love you for it. Darling that stupid Lorna didn't know what she was missing. It's her loss. You are all mine now."
The Professor nodded and was silent a minute before speaking. "Ginger..there's something I haven't told you. I…I wasn't completely honest with you about something."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean.." The academic sighed gently moving his wife aside and picking up his clothes to dress. He buttoned up his shirt and got up from the bed. "I..I told you that Lorna didn't know my feelings…That wasn't true. She did."
"She did?" Ginger said perplexed. "How?"
"I told her." Roy replied. "I gathered the courage to tell her and then…I…kissed her."
"You did?" The movie star said surprised. "What did she do?"
"She quickly pushed me back and said in a somewhat angry tone that she had a boyfriend. She advised me to never do that again." He paused before continuing. "I never felt so stupid in my life. I felt like a giant fool. Who was I to go and…well I then told her I was sorry and I was unaware she was involved. I promised that I would not attempt that again. She said I better not. Then she informed me she had to go and then made it clear to me that the kiss was not that great anyway. I supposed that's another reason I chose to avoid love. I'm not any good at…"
Ginger fumed. She never met this Lorna but if she did she would most certainly give that woman a piece of her mind! "Roy…darling." Ginger said as she stood up wrapping the sheet around herself. "She is wrong. Dead wrong. I love when you kiss me!"
The Professor turned to his wife and offered a small smile. "No you love kissing me. You love wrapping me up in your arms and kissing me. Whenever we…you are the one who initiates it most of the time. You don't care for my kisses."
The starlet shook her head. "Roy that's not true! Don't say that! I love your kisses! I love you kissing me! You are wonderful! No one ever kissed me like you do! You don't know what you do…I swear I love every one of your amazing kisses! I do! Why would you think otherwise? That's crazy! That dumb Lorna didn't know what the hell she was talking about! She probably thought it was amazing and just said that because..well she is just stupid. Who cares what she thinks! I think you are a wonderful kisser and I told Mary Ann that too! When I was having trouble remembering that I loved you and we would…I told her you were a good kisser. Very good. I did I swear I did! You are an amazing kisser!"
"You mean that?" He asked touching her cheek.
"I do mean it. Darling there is nothing better than you holding me in your arms and kissing me. Don't you ever think otherwise, you hear me? You forget what that idiot said and the other idiot Patty who whined you were smarter than her. They are stupid women. You have me and I love you. In fact…." Ginger moved closer to her husband. "I want you to kiss me right now."
"What?"
"Kiss me." The redhead instructed. "I want you to kiss me."
The Professor put his arms around his wife and pulled her in close. He then slowly brought his lips to hers and kissed her softly. Ginger felt as if her knees would surely give out. She clung to him tightly returning his kiss with equal passion. The kiss broke and she gazed at him. "Do it again." She said in a breathless voice.
He complied with her request and the starlet practically melted against him. The sparks that shot through her were overwhelming. No matter how many times she was in his arms, she felt the same feelings each and every time. He released the kiss from her lips and Ginger smiled. "Darling once more…."
The Professor caressed her red silky hair. "I think you had enough kissing for one day."
The seductive redhead pressed herself closer to him. "Once more…" She said with fire in her eyes.
He brought his mouth back to hers and the kiss grew more intense and passionate. His shirt was being unbuttoned and was soon forgotten on the floor. The sheet Ginger had been wearing was yanked away and they two fell back on the bed in one another's arms making the most passionate love. The Professor soon forgot all about the humiliation he had felt with Lorna and how Patty thought him boring. It didn't matter. Most definitely he had something much better. He had Ginger. No woman would ever compete with her.
Not in a million years would his head be turned by any other female. It did not matter who may wash ashore their tiny little island, his heart belonged to the beautiful Ginger Grant aka Ginger Hinkley. His amazing sexy voluptuous wife with her big heart and not to mention the way she captivated him with that incredible singing. Roy Hinkley had heard many female singers in his day and thought they were all talented but no one compared to Ginger's sensual voice. The look in her eyes…the way she moved on the stage. It was the sexiest thing he had ever witnessed in his life and without fail always wanted to see more. Of course it wasn't just her sex appeal that drew him in. It was the feeling she put behind the song. He could actually feel what she felt. The words meant something to her. She put so much emotion into them. As far as he was concerned no other could top that. He kissed her lips once more with even more passion and then moved to her neck and briefly down to her breasts before going back to her lips. The academic felt as if he could kiss her forever. The feelings that brewed inside him were more than he knew he was capable of experiencing. He broke the kiss and gazed at his wife. "You know my love…I don't think there will ever in a thousand years be another woman who I could love as much as you."
Ginger smiled. "You are so romantic….Darling..say it for me once again…"
"Alpha Centuri." He replied brushing his mouth against her forehead.
The starlet giggled wrapping her arms around him tightly. It was true there was nothing better in the world then being with her husband. Roy Hinkley was the only man to care about her deeply. The amount of love he showered upon her was something she never believed was possible. Her Roy was the most romantic sweet sexy man on the face of the Earth and no one was ever going to rip him from her arms. Not a chance in hell. If by chance some chippy happens to wash up on the island, she best think twice before she attempts to set her sights on the Professor. And if they ever did get rescued, those women in Hollywood will know to keep their paws off of her man. Ginger knew how it worked out there. Men were horrible and so were the women. She had her share of them stealing away a boyfriend or two. Sometimes the redhead was convinced people were just sex starved in that town. No one seemed to care about real love. It was just cheap trashy lust. Well if she got back, it wasn't going to work that way for her. She was spoken for. Roy Hinkley already claimed her heart and too bad for you Cary Grant and Gregory Peck. You too Rock Hudson!
Ginger sighed happily in her husband's arms basking in the beauty of the moment however something was puzzling her. "Darling…why did you think I didn't adore you kissing me? Where did that come from?"
He lifted her hand and kissed it softly. "I guess I just doubt myself sometimes. Lorna was the only woman that I had really cared about before I laid my eyes upon you. I keep thinking that you will one day believe what she believes. And that woman who told my brother never to set her up with me again. That was after Lorna rejected me. When she too wanted nothing to do with me, it hurt. I thought it was me. That I was just too dull and boring. Everything that I believed to be interesting was apparently of no interest to anyone but me. However I know you are not Lorna and you are not that other woman Patty. You are beautiful Ginger. My beautiful Ginger."
"I love you." She said sitting up and kissing his lips. "I will always love you. Those idiots didn't know what they were missing. Well too bad for them. You belong to me and I'm not letting go. So stop doubting yourself. I love you you stupid stupid man."
The Professor brought her to him again and their love for one another started up once again. It was getting steamy and hot in the hut but neither of the two appeared to notice or care. What they cared about was being together in that moment.
It was later Ginger got up from the bed and walked out to the table to get herself a glass of cool water. The Professor watched his wife pouring the water without a stitch of clothing on her body. He got up putting on his pants and then he picked his shirt up and approached his wife putting the garment on her shoulders.
"Roy what are you doing?" She asked as she took a sip of water.
"You didn't have anything on." He replied.
"So?" She grinned.
"So what if someone comes in here…I don't want them to get an eyeful of something they are not allowed to see." The Professor explained. "No one gets to see your gorgeous body except for me."
Ginger shook her head. "Really.." She said tossing off the shirt causing it to fall to the floor. "No one is coming in here and no one is going to see me. You think they are going to go peeking through the windows?"
"Well there is no glass in the windows so someone could much more easily peer…"
"And who is going to do that?" Ginger asked turning around. "Skipper? He knows better than that. Besides he is preoccupied with Alice. You know he is smitten with her. I can see it. He would much rather see Alice naked than me. And Gilligan….if he saw me he would run and try to block the image out of his head. He only wants to see Mary Ann. By the way Roy you better only want to see me."
"My love you are the most beautiful woman on this island. Why would I want to look at anyone but you?" He said pulling her into his arms.
Ginger smiled. "You wouldn't. No one can turn you on like me." The redhead placed a kiss on his lips.
"This is true." He replied holding her close. "You do have a way of….well I can say for sure no woman has ever excited me the way you do my beautiful wife."
"I bet you are "excited" now." Ginger purred at him running her hands over his chest.
"Maybe." He said concentrating on the shape of her lips. "That does appear to be your daily goal."
"I need you turned on." Ginger said placing kisses on his torso. "We are working on making a baby…You need to be ready….whenever I want you."
The Professor shook his head. "Is that the only reason? So you can get a baby from me?" He asked amused. "Is this why you are insisting on appearing before me in your…birthday suit.."
"I thought I would give you something pleasing to look at…" Ginger smiled still kissing him. "Don't think I don't know your secret ways to arouse me.."
"My secret ways?" He asked lifting her head up. "May I ask what those are?"
"You know." Ginger said. "You walk around wearing that shirt all the time knowing full well that I know what's under that shirt and that I want what's under that shirt and you won't let me see and it drives me crazy. The way it hugs your body…so hot…" She captured his mouth in a deep hard kiss before letting go. "You do it on purpose."
"I do?" He asked with a small laugh.
"Yes you do." The starlet said placing her hands on his shoulders. "Would it kill you to take it off and let me have something pleasing to the eye to see."
"My love I did offer to do such a thing but you told me to put it back on." He reminded her.
"That's because I was distraught. I'm not anymore. You keep that shirt off for me. You would do that for me wouldn't you?" She asked.
"You want me to walk around the island shirtless?"
Ginger thought a minute. "Well no..not exactly…I mean I don't want the other women seeing you and having fantasies…You are the hottest man on this island but you are all mine. I know they would get all hot and bothered if they saw you and that's not going to be allowed to happen. The only one who is getting hot and bothered by your hot body is me. You can walk around here without a shirt." She grinned. "In fact, I'm going to make that a rule…you are not allowed to wear a shirt in this hut."
"What if we have company?" He asked.
"Well then of course you would be required to wear a shirt but when we are alone…off it comes."
"This is very important to you isn't it? I must not be allowed to wear a cover for my upper body is that it?"
"Yes." She grinned seductively.
"You know this is not fair." He said his eyes going over her. "You are asking this of me while you yourself are without clothing so I am at my weakest."
"That's the idea." Ginger said kissing him once more.
"You are a minx." He touching her nose.
"And you love me." The redhead said with a sultry look.
"Yes I do." Was his reply as he hugged her. "Very much. Now if you don't mind will you please put something on….It's making me very nervous…."
The starlet laughed. "It really bothers you doesn't it?"
"I told you there is no glass in the windows therefore there wouldn't be a glare if someone was walking by and they could get a good look…"
"Gee darling you don't seem to care about windows when we are making love. You don't seem to think much about anyone hearing…."
"My love I'm not responsible for the pitch or volume of your….that is in your control."
"Darling but you are…you just excite me so much and I can't control it…I can't fight it…What is the point? You know how to work…"
"I get the general picture." The Professor interrupted. "We could put some type of bamboo covering over the windows if it bothers you."
"Hmmm…" Ginger grinned. "That would mean you would be working on something and getting all hot and sweaty…which makes you look even more irresistible….. Like when you carried those rocks…Roy darling it was all I could do to not jump on you. You looked so darn sexy…"
The Professor noticed that look in his wife's eyes again. "Ginger…I think it would be wise to for us to not…"
He could not get the rest of the sentence out as the movie star pounced on him again.
The man never knew what hit him. The movie star could not help herself. Not only did she want to have a baby with his man…she loved him like crazy and all that time she spent not being able to make love with him…well it got to her. She needed to make up for lost time.
California
Kimberly Grant hung up the phone in shock. She was completely stunned. There was no other word for it. Stunned. Her daughter. Her lovely daughter Ginger….she could be alive! Her baby girl could be alive! This Chris said they didn't have anything concrete to go on but they felt they should check out this island. He did warn her that they may not find anything but still..it was worth a shot. Kim agreed. She felt anything was worth checking. If it meant her little girl was still alive by all means go check it out!
Yes her little girl was not so little anymore. She was a grown woman. One who the Grant matriarch was very proud of. Ginger had talent and she worked hard at any role she landed. Big or small, Ginger gave it everything she had. And her singing. It was incredible. When Ginger came to her at age seven saying she wanted to sing, Kimberly thought it would just be a passing phase but agreed to get her lessons. Then she and her husband Joshua found that their daughter really didn't need lessons. She was a natural. Yes the voice coach did help her hone her craft but really Ginger was already a pro.
Kimberly remembered when she saw her daughter performing at a nightclub. How beautiful she looked on that stage! Like she was born there. Simply amazing. The audience just loved her but how could you not love her? Ginger was charming. Sometimes Kim thought that she was a little too charming for her own good. She was none to pleased with some of the men her daughter had dated. Now she did not want to see Ginger unhappy but she could not help but be glad the relationships did not pan out. She wanted more for her. Much more. She wanted her to have a man who was intelligent and handsome and would treat her with respect. Treasure her and her big heart.
If only her daughter could meet a man like that! Well maybe she will. If Chris was right and Ginger was on that island...oh how she hoped it was true! I had to be true!
Kimberly collected herself and picked up the phone and dialed. She ran her hand through her long dark red hair while she waited. "Hello…Shelly? It's Kim. I'm good. I need to speak with Josh…it's urgent..if he's in a meeting can you please interrupt..thank you."
Joshua Grant was in the middle of putting together a deal with a colleague when his phone buzzed. "Yes Shelly?"
"I have your wife on the line…she said it's urgent."
Josh smiled. Urgent. Kim always said it was urgent. Sometimes he felt it was ruse just so she could get through to him quicker. "Okay…I'll take the call…Kim….sweetheart what is it?"
"I have amazing news! You are not going to believe it! It's about Ginger! She…she could be…Our baby girl could be alive!"
"What?" The brown haired man said with shock. "How…what…."
"I just received a call from this gentleman…Chris Norbanks…He said his mom disappeared in the same area. He and his brother were searching for her and well they found this little island on a map. They think…it is possible their mom could be there and well…Ginger could be there. Along with crew and other passengers of the Minnow."
"I…I can't…You sure this was not a prank? This not some joke…"
"No it's not. I assure you. He gave me his number…"
Joshua wrote it down and she continued. "I think he is telling the truth. He said he will call us as soon as he knows anything.."
"I think I will give him a call myself." The executive said. "I need to make sure this is a legit."
Kim nodded on the other end. "I understand but honey I really think it's true. I really believe Ginger is alive. Call me crazy but you know they never did find…it has to be possible."
"I hope it is." Josh said. "I really truly hope it is."
