Unexpected Fun

Theresa and Fox laughed loudly, earlier arguments forgotten, they happily splashed around in the ocean. People young and old looked on admiringly at the two thinking that they were both a happy couple perhaps even newlyweds.

Theresa ran passed Fox splashing him and taking him of guard causing him to take in a mouth full of salt water. "FOX!!!" Theresa yelled out with boisterous laughter as Fox tackled her and flung her over his shoulder carrying her back over to the two towels that they had lain out.

He dropped her gently onto her towel and flopped down next to her picking up his towel and drying off his neck. He glanced over at Theresa. She was lying on her towel with her eyes closed, her chest was evenly rising and falling with each breath she took. Fox's gaze followed Theresa's body.

"Fox?" Theresa asked. Fox was snapped out of his trance and smiled down at her face. "Yes Theresa?" He asked with an impish smile. She gave a sly smile and leaned in, her lips were a few inches away from his. He could feel her breath against his lips. "Fox..." Theresa said seductively. "Yeah..." he said. "Catch me if you can!"

She said pushing him back and running off laughing hysterically. "THERESA!!!!" Fox yelled. 'For a second I thought she was actually going to kiss me... what was I thinking? Why would she kiss me she's in love with precious little Ethan.' He thought as he jumped up and started chasing after her. She dodged his many attempts to catch her. "What's wrong Fox you having a little problem with catching little old me?"

"Theresa when I catch you..." "You'll what Fox?" She asked with a laugh. Fox sped up catching up to Theresa. He grabbed onto her but the sudden quick movement brought them both to the ground, they landed in an awkward position with Theresa on top of him. The ocean water lapped at their skin.

Neither one of them made a move as they stared into each others eyes. Fox slowly moved upward and hesitantly placed his lips onto hers, he was surprised that she actually kissed back. The kiss deepened into a more passionate kiss.

Theresa pulled away and looked into his eyes she was out of breath. "What the hell was that?" They both asked at the same time.
