"Come have lunch with me," she offered when Sam and Leah seemed to be slowing down.
For the last week, we'd met up on the beach.
I could see her translucence fading as she took on a golden glow.
A glow that was only enhanced by the sexier than sin bikinis she continued to parade in front me wearing.
Her eyes were always dull when we first met and quickly dulled when it was time to part...but our time together, in between, they sparkled.
We seemed drawn to each other, finding ourselves sitting closer and closer each time we gave in and permitted ourselves to drop to the sand.
For the first time since shaking her hand, our skin was touching again, our calves pressing as she invited me to eat.
"Where?" I whispered.
"My place." Her eyes looked determined.
It's always so warm at the beach...
