"The pink one?" Jeff asked Stephanie. He picked up the white ball and hurled it at the milk bottles.



"WOOHOO!" Stephanie hollered when an old man handed her a pink M&M plain plush - about half the size of her upper body. Holding the doll up she smiled at Jeff.



"Good shot huh?" Jeff asked rolling his already cut sleeves up.



"Thanks." Stephanie leaned up and pressed a kiss to his cheek. Cradling the plush toy she sighed happily. They'd spent most of the day eating cotton candy and funnel cake and playing games. It was now that the sun was setting and people were leaving.



"I got an idea." Jeff said as they headed down to the beach.



"What's that?" Stephanie asked



"Put down the M&M." Jeff said and she did what he asked. Picking her up he ran with her to the cool water-crashing head on into the waves.



When they both came up he laughed at the look upon her face. A disgruntled Stephanie stuck out her tongue at him and began to swim back to shore. . Grabbing her shoulder he pulled her back against him. Turning so they could watch the sun's final setting he realized he was the only thing holding her up considering he a was taller than her and her feet kept slipping on the wet hard sand beneath them. She'd lost her shoes but for some reason he sensed that she didn't care at all. His arms enveloped her in a tight hold stopping what ever shiver was about to start.



"Wow." Stephanie smiled at the light pinks and blues dotting the now darkening sky.



"That was nice." Jeff had a goofy grin on his face.



"You are such a dork!" She laughed realizing he was holding her.



Leaning back in his embrace she let his warmth surround her. Her cheeks flushed and she hoped he couldn't see them in the dark. There was a light breeze but she couldn't feel it she only saw the small bits of sand race each other. His hands rubbed her arms softly and she shivered involuntarily. Taking in a deep breath she couldn't fight the inevitable Leaning up to look in his eyes she saw he was gazing down on her the same emotion apparent on his face. Tilting her head to the side his lips touched hers tenderly causing a trill to run through her. She couldn't remember when she left the cool water but when she came back down to it she still didn't feel a thing the stunning feeling of his lips moving from hers made her forget all reality. Every line she'd crossed, every rule she'd broken, her soon to be engagement did matter as long as his lips were upon hers and hers were on his. Licking her lower lip she opened her eyes and looked back up at him.



"You're cold." Jeff whispered in her ear tickling her senses wonderfully.



"I know." I said the sound of her teeth chattering breaking the mood. Lifting her in his arms again this time more gentle and sweet he carried her back to shore. Sitting down on the cooling sand she leaned back closing her eyes imagining she was anywhere but in North Carolina. She wished she and Jeff were in Mexico somewhere or in France. Water slid down her face and she couldn't tell if they were tears or just salty water from the ocean. She felt his presence next to her and looked up to see his eyes. Those beautiful green eyes dancing with something she'd never seen before. Not lust or a simple wanting or needing but a sweet tenderness that brought her to the heavens when he leaned in and kissed her again.



"Jeff?" Stephanie asked sitting up.



"Yeah?" Jeff answered sitting up with her brushing sand off his shirt.



"I don't want to but I have to go home." Stephanie said quietly not wanting the moment to end.



"I understand." Jeff nodded. "Tomorrow?"



"Definitely tomorrow." She said leaning in to plant a kiss on his still wet neck.



"I'll miss you till then." Jeff smiled. Damn she was falling for that smile.



"Some how I think I'll always miss you.even when I go back to Greenwich." Stephanie laughed.



"Such an honor I have to be missed by such a beautiful creature. That I can not tell whether to die of love or die from wanting, so that I may awake and see her beautiful face again above me; floating like an angel before returning to heaven where she belongs." Jeff said.



"OOOO a poet." Stephanie touched his cheek with her open palm and kissed his lips again.



"Have that I be a poor or rich poet no matter which. As long as thy love is still mine." Jeff kissed her back taking longer than she had.



"Smooth." Stephanie commented. She then raised an eyebrow. "Very smooth."



"Well being the master player that I am I do need some skills." Jeff said and she smacked his arm playfully. Standing up Jeff held out a hand and helped her to her feet.



"I'll be seeing you tomorrow." Jeff said walking to the car their hands intertwined.



"How'd you guess?" Stephanie asked after he opened the door.



"How could you resist me?" He asked in mock surprise and she got in shutting the door behind her.



"Sweet dreams." Jeff whispered in her ear at the gate.



"Only of you." Stephanie laughed.



"Are you sure you want me to just drop you here?" Jeff asked.



"Yeah.. it's going to be a riot and I'd better go alone." Stephanie explained.



"If you need me to come get you then just call me or beep me or something." Jeff said insistantly.



"I'll be fine.they're my parents I have dealt with them before." Stephanie said. Before he could say anything in protest she kissing him long and sweet on the lips leaving a lingering peck on the cheek before she jumped out of the car and walked through the gates and up the long path the mansion.



"I hope she doesn't have to make that call." Jeff said heading home after she disappeared along the trail.
