a/n: This time you didn't have to wait too long. I didn't know what to do in this chapter, but Bobby and water is a combination I like. You can imagine the sacrifice I made to imagine the scenes for this chapter. Yes, it wasn't easy. Some fun and sexual tension in this chapter, because next chapter will be more serious. 'Cause it's time to make a final decision. Well I hope you enjoy and comments, ideas, suggestions and stuff are welcome!
Chapter twelve
Why, when there were so many things to do in NY, did they want to go swimming he didn't understand. When Alex had asked him to with that as if it was the most normal thing to do. She even took it a step further by asking Carolyn and Mike to also join. At some point he'd expected her to tell him that Deakins and Carver were joining them too.
Stepping out of the car, Abby was immediately at his side, grabbing his hand. "Are there slides? Will you go with me? Are they fast and high?" Abby fired her questions at him.
"Sure he will. Bobby loves to swim." Alex answered for Bobby.
"Me too." Abby pulled on Bobby's hand. "Let's go!"
While waiting for Alex and Abby, Bobby prepared himself for what was to come. Alex in a swimming suit, that sure was going to test his self control. The thing was that he couldn't be too obvious with his reaction to her with Abby around. But still this was Alex he was talking about.
Suddenly a weight hit his legs. Turning around, he bend and lifted Abby in his arms. She was wearing a pick one piece bathing suit. "Can we go?" Abby asked impatiently.
"Let's wait for your aunt."
"I'm here."
Turning around slowly, Bobby's eyes widened at the sight before him. Alex took his breath away and he swallowed thickly. She was wearing a green bikini which looked beautiful on her. He longed to touch her exposed skin, longed to take her in his arms and feel her skin against his. He wanted to tell her how beautiful she looked, but couldn't with Abby around.
"Come!" Abby yelled to Alex.
"Wh… when are Carolyn and Mike coming?" His eyes darted to avoid staring at her body.
"They'll be here soon." Watching Bobby walk away with Abby, Alex smiled. She'd seen his reaction to her and she was pleased. She had to admit that she didn't mind watching him walk away. Bobby had a strong, broad, muscular shoulders and cute butt. The front wasn't bad either. She wanted to reach out and touch. His chest was broad and muscular too. She couldn't wait to see him in the water with the droplets running down his chest. All in all she thought Abby's idea to go swimming terrific. They should go more often.
She waited for Mike and Carolyn in one of the pools while Bobby and Alex were on their way to one of the slides. The way he was with children, was one of his strengths. She loved to see him with kids. There was such a gentleness in his words and gestures when he was with them. Because of that she knew he'd be a good a good father. Not for the first time did she wonder if he wanted to be Abby's father. For now it seemed to early to discuss it. They were still figuring out their own relationship.
"Nice view, huh?" Carolyn's familiar voice sounded from behind Alex.
"Can't complain." Mike's voice was suggestive. To emphasize that he eyed both women up and down and winked at them. Spotting Bobby with Abby on the slide he left the two ladies alone.
"Boys will be boys." Carolyn and Alex stayed away from the slides and just enjoyed the water.
Some time later, while Bobby, Mike and Abby were in the pool with the high waves, Alex and Carolyn were sitting on the edge of the pool with their feet dangling in the water.
"Incoming." Carolyn nodded towards the guys that were looking at them from the other side of the pool.
"Do they seriously think they'd have a chance?" Alex guessed the guys were no older than 25.
They both watched as the guys dived into the water and make their way towards them. The two men lifted themselves out of the water one both sides of Alex and Carolyn. Probably hoping the women were impressed by their muscles.
"What are you two fine ladies doing here by yourself?" The one next to Alex asked.
"Having fun."
"It could be even more fun with some great company."
"It could." Carolyn didn't have to look at Alex to know she would do her part. "Know anyone?"
"Mmm…. Let me see…" Alex looked around and spotted Mike, Bobby and Abby making their way towards them. "They look like fun." She pointed at them to make sure the guys knew who they meant.
"They're old and one of them even has a kid." The blond guy next to Carolyn said.
"Bet they're a couple." The other kid added as if he was funny.
"I'm pretty sure they aren't. Let's see... Hey sweetie, could you come over here and say hi to these two nice boys." Alex called with a sweet voice to Bobby.
Bobby, who was somewhat surprised by the sudden endearment, knew that voice and knew she was up to something. Looking at Mike he saw he knew something was up to. Abby, who was oblivious to what was going on around her, skipped to Alex and sat down on her lap.
"Sweetheart, these boys aren't bothering you, are they?" Bobby stood behind Alex, looking down at the two guys, who were rightfully impressed by his length.
"No, they were just concerned. Thought we were lonely and wanted to keep us company." Alex smiled sweetly at the guys.
"That was very nice of you, but as you can see we're here now. You can go off and play again." Not waiting for the guy next to Alex to move away, Bobby gave him a gently push so he landed in the water. The other guy seemed to have no problem with that message and quickly got in the water too. Together they swam away.
Near the end of their stay at the pool, Bobby and Alex finally had a moment for their selves. They had found a somewhat secluded spot, behind a made rock formation. She was standing in the pool, where the water came to just below her breast and Bobby was simply watching her. With that knowledge she slowly leaned her head back and ran her hands through her hair. Looking innocently at him, she saw the intense look in his dark brown eyes and she couldn't help the shiver that ran through her. Slowly he threaded through the water to her.
"Finally I get you for myself."
His voice held the same intensity as his eyes and she was delighted by it. He made her feel wanted… and beautiful with just a look.
"Oooh poor baby." With him now in front of her, she couldn't resist the urge to touch him. Reaching out she let her hand slide from his shoulder to the middle of his chest. She watched how the water slid down and had to keep her hand still to avoid following the water's path. Quickly her other hand joined the exploration of his chest.
"Alex…" He almost growled. He hated that they were in a public place. Her hands were driving him crazy and all he wanted to do and could think of was lifting her out of the water and making passionate love to her. He settled for the next best thing, something he'd been also thinking about ever since he'd seen her in her bikini.
His hands settled on her waist and she kept hers on his chest. He pulled her closer. With his thumbs he caressed her skin. Slowly his hands travelled upwards… deliberately brushing against her breasts, causing her to gasp. "You're so beautiful, Alex." He whispered in her ear. His hands were now on her back, passing the string of her bikini top. "I've wanted to touch you the entire day." He admitted to her.
He couldn't resist the sweet offering that was her neck. He placed butterfly kisses on it and smiled when Alex gave him better access to her neck. His hands were on her waist again, but they slowly worked their way down over her butt.
Alex, who was glad she was in the water to keep her somewhat cool, didn't want Bobby to feel left out. Her hands trailed lower, with her nails slightly scraping his chest and nipples. She immediately felt his reaction as he pulled her body against his. She stopped her hands, just at the edge of his swimming shorts. She couldn't resist letting her thumbs dip inside a little. She felt his muscles tense and he stopped kissing her neck. Looking up she saw him watching her with dark eyes.
Suddenly he lifted her out of the water, in his arms and threaded to the edge of the pool. Setting her down he immediately found her lips. Passionately he kissed her, his tongues immediately sought out hers and they danced together as if it was a way to quell the passion they were both feeling at the moment.
It was Alex who didn't loose herself in their passionate moment. Slowly, but surely, she ended the kiss and slightly pushed him back. "We can't do this here." She said as she also tried to catch her breath.
Bobby nodded, in stead of answering. He still needed to catch his breath. This beautiful petit woman had the ability to make him loose control and forget his surrounding and make him focus solely on her. And that was exactly what he wanted to do at the moment. He, however, couldn't resist to steal one more kiss. He kissed her slowly and gently, his hands caressing her skin, not arousing her. This time Bobby could stop and he slowly parted from her. "We'd better go find the others. Wouldn't want them to come searching for us."
