Sand and Water... and a million years gone by.

"Ah, Andrea. Please... come here. There's someone I'd like you to meet..."

Andrea heard Tony call her name as she reached the end of the staircase. She joined him in front of the door, where he was talking to a dark-haired man who looked slightly familiar.

"Andrea, this is John Black. John," Tony motioned to Andrea. "Andrea." He smiled. "Andrea is... a very close friend of the family."

John extended his hand. "It's nice to meet you, Andrea."

"The pleasure is all mine," Andrea shook his hand. "Please, call me Andy. It's so much less formal."

"Yes, well, John was just leaving..." Tony gave him a look.

"Right." John nodded. "I'll be in touch."

"I'm sure you will be," Tony muttered as he closed the door.

Andrea smiled. "Let me guess... enemy?"

Tony sighed. "Brother..." Noticing the look of confusion on Andrea's face, he quickly added: "It's a long story. One day I'll explain it to you."

"Gee, thanks." She gave him a sarcastic smile.

"Anytime," he grinned. "Now," he walked over, wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close. "Where were we?"

No matter how hard she tried, Andrea couldn't resist. Putting her arms around his neck, she smiled and touched her forehead to his. "I think we were right about...here..." She kissed him sweetly for about 5 seconds.

Tony chuckled and grinned. "Well, what about here?..." He kissed her a bit more passionately this time, then moved on to her neck. He trailed kisses up to behind her ear, where he continued to suck gently on the sensitive skin.

Her breath caught in her throat. This was the one thing that rendered her completely helpless. "Tony... you remembered..." were the only words she managed to get out.

"How could I forget, sweetheart?..." He laughed a little and smiled a mischievous smile before placing small kisses up her jaw-line until he reached her mouth once more.

Andrea was at the point to where she couldn't think straight. Never had a man been able to make her feel this way. Forget Stefano! He can't hurt us now... she thought, as she felt Tony's hand slide up the back of her shirt.

She arched her back, and Tony could tell that she was thoroughly enjoying this. She's not the only one, he thought to himself. He smiled again and began kissing at the base of her neck. He could feel her body tense up as he traced circles on her shoulder with his tongue. As he moved up to her throat, he felt her shiver slightly.

Andrea closed her eyes for a second, becoming lost in this euphoric state.

Neither of them had heard the door open.

Andrea's eyes went wide. "Tony..."

"Mmmm..." Tony slid his mouth up to her cheek, and quickly pulled away when he saw they were being watched.

Rex grinned. "Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt. I just accidentally left one of my books..." He quickly grabbed a book off of a nearby table and walked back to the door. He stepped outside, turned around, grabbed to door handle, smiled and said: "Carry on...," before shutting the door.

Andrea buried her head in Tony's shoulder.

Tony smiled and laughed again as he gently lifted her head up. "Aw, it will be okay, Princess." He grinned. "What do you say we move this to a more private locale...?"

Andrea was still clearly embarrassed, but she smiled and nodded. She then grinned and shook her head in disbelief. "Oh, my...." Tony put a finger to her lips.

"Let's save that phrase, shall we. I'm sure you'll be saying it a good many times in the next hour...." He grinned and kissed her gently.

Andrea turned bright red as Tony picked her up. "And just what makes you so sure about that...?" She looked deep into his eyes as he carried her up the stairs.

He just continued to grin as he brought her into her bedroom. Kicking the door shut with his foot, he managed to lock it with two fingers. Walking over to the bed, he sat down with her in his lap. "Now, once again, where were we?...Here?..." he covered her mouth with his own. As his arms wrapped around her again, his fingers caressed the small of her back.

"Yeah, that feels about right..." Andrea whispered in between kisses.

"Good..." Tony whispered back as he proceeded on to kissing her neck once more. He didn't know which one of them was getting the most pleasure out of the experience. He had yearned for the taste of her skin for so long...he just wanted to make her happy... I can't lose her again... he thought.

Andrea slid her arms around him, pulling him closer still. She wanted more than this, but knew that he would not take it past kissing and caressing. She had told Tony years ago that she was waiting for marriage, and he had graciously honored her wishes. He doesn't even know!... but I can't tell him now...no matter how much I want to.... she sighed.

He stopped kissing her and looked deep into her eyes. "Everything alright?"

"Everything's perfect," she smiled, giving him a quick kiss.

"Almost...." Tony gave her a wicked smile as he lifted her sweater up over her head, revealing her black tank top.

"Ooh, you're bad..." Andrea smiled playfully, and began to unbutton his black shirt.

"Well, apparently, I'm not the only one." He put her sweater down on the bed and enveloped her lips with his own for a brief two seconds.

Andrea finished unbuttoning his shirt, but left it on his body. She slid her hands up his chest and around his neck. "No, you're not," she whispered as she kissed along his jaw-line.

"Oh, you're good..." Tony chuckled lightly.

"I thought I was bad..." she gave him a flirtatious smile. "You know, I learned from the master...."

Tony laughed. "Really... and who might that be?"

Andrea brought her lips back to his. Kissing him lightly, she replied: "If you don't know that, then we have a big problem."

They both grinned and laughed. Tony pulled her close in a passionate kiss, and placed her on the bed. He gently laid on top of her and brushed her blonde hair out of her face. He gazed into her eyes. "You are so beautiful..." he said softly, as he caressed her face with his hand.

She blushed, and Tony leaned down and kissed her once more. His left hand traveled under her shirt and rested on her stomach.

Andrea drew in a deep breath as Tony placed short, sweet kisses from her throat down to her chest. He then moved down to her stomach. Lifting her shirt up, he traced around her bellybutton with his tongue. She arched her back and he grinned. He kissed down her stomach to the top of her jeans.

She gasped and grasped the sheets as Tony undid her jeans and continued to kiss down to the top of her underwear. "Oh my..."

Tony grinned and moved back up her body. He knew exactly what he was doing. He kissed her once on the stomach, once on the chest, and finally on the mouth, before laying down beside her. He loved coming up with new ways to tease her. Turning on his side, he kissed her cheek. "Had enough, Princess?"

Andrea was breathing heavily as she turned to face him. They looked into each others eyes, laughed and smiled, as Tony slid his arms around her once again and held her close. "You know, you should really learn to control your breathing..." he kissed her forehead. She smiled again and closed her eyes. Tony held her for a minute before saying softly, "Oh, and, um, string bikini?... Very nice." He winked and gave her an 'okay' sign with his fingers.

She blushed fiercely and grinned. "You..." she pushed him back down on the bed and leaned over him, growling playfully.

"Me..." Tony grinned back, pulling her on top of him. He brought her mouth to his, kissing her passionately, once again letting his fingers caress the small of her back. "So I take it you haven't had enough..."

Andrea grinned. "Never..." she whispered as Tony's lips met hers once again.

He chuckled lightly, continuing to kiss her passionately as he slid a hand up the front of her shirt.

Things were starting to heat up, as Eliana's voice echoed through the hall. "Count DiMera! Andrea! You have visitors!"

"I'll be there in a minute, Eliana!" Tony shouted, trying to catch his breath.

Andrea and Tony looked at each other for a minute and then laughed as they slowly climbed out of bed.
