This had to be heaven! Amy felt completely weightless. It was like having completely melted into the water, into Sheldon. There was no separation of herself and her surrounding anymore. She just existed, she just felt. No thoughts, no hesitations, no fear or shame. Only bliss and joy and the yearning for the peak. She was on her way, slowly, with every of the little movements that Sheldon did to her pelvis, she got higher and higher, surrendering herself completely into his control. She heard a deep moan, not sure and not caring if it came out of her own throat or of Sheldon's. They were one body now, one mind and one soul…

Suddenly he stopped moving her. Instead, she felt his strong arms behind her back, carefully lifting her up, resting herself on his chest, their bodies still fully connected.

"I'm so sorry!", Sheldon committed whispering, "But I cannot do this. I… I just cannot… let everything… flow into the water. That would be disgusting. Not only for myself. Other people want to use this pool, too!"

"It's ok,", Amy calmed him. "What I just experienced was really fantastic and almost out of this world. We don't need to go further."

"But I want to. I want it so badly. It took me so much willpower to interrupt this. I… was almost there…" He took a look around their environment. Then he had an idea and let himself slide out of her slowly. He put one of his arms under her shoulder and one under her legs and started carrying her to the other side of the pool.

"It's a good thing that the water helps me carrying you", Sheldon admitted. "I probably wouldn't be strong enough on my own. But I'm working on it. One day I want to be able to do it." He kissed her tenderly.

"You know, feeling that weightless I was wondering how sex in space must feel like…" Amy giggled slightly.

"Oh please, don't make me think of Howard now! We have arrived." Amy turned her head and saw – the air mattress bobbing next to her in the water.

"This has already saved us once tonight, so I think we could use it another time." He looked at her questioning. She nodded.

Sheldon lifted her up the mattress and while doing so place a gentle kiss on her mound.

"Cannot wait to feel you again", he whispered and then climbed cautiously onto the mattress, too.

It was swaying a bit, but they managed to not fall down.

Sheldon smiled and crawled above Amy. He rested his stretched arms on each side of her head and looked down on her wet face, the water dripping from her hair.

"You know, that in an attempt to read all the books that are considered world literature, I also read the Kamasutra? I remember all of the sexual practices presented there. Tonight in this pool we would have been able to try a lot of them, but honestly, I like you the most like this, under me, with your body close to mine and your lips just in reach of mine…" With that, he lay his arms on the mattress and kissed her softly. Amy threw her arms around him and caressed his back.

"I love you, Amy, you know? Sometimes I think I don't tell you enough. You should be aware of it all the time."

"I know so well that I am loved by you, Sheldon, you make me know it every day." She caressed his face tenderly. "And you're loved by me." She let her hand slide down his back, around his hips and took his penis in her hand, guiding him to her folds. "Please. Let me show you how much I love you."

Sheldon kissed her deeply and at the same time entered her cautiously. They both moaned slightly at the feeling of finally being united again.

Thanks to their swaying base, Sheldon didn't want to risk moving too much. So they just held each other in their arms and gave pleasure to their bodies with tiny, shy strokes, while the air mattress was drifting slowly on the surface of the water in the illuminated pool.

The night was calm and bright. Distant solar systems could be spotted in the sky above. The crickets were chirping, the wind sometimes rustling slightly in the trees besides the pool.
Their lovemaking was tender and sweet, the heat of the previous minutes had been replaced by a deep and sincere feeling of knowing, loving and understanding each other.

Sheldon saw Amy's green, loving eyes shining brightly under him, her wet dark hair like a wreath framing her beautiful face, the turquoise glowing water around them creating an almost unreal atmosphere.

He felt she was close, he knew how her face looked like when her orgasm was approaching, how she closed her eyes, how her skin blushed red, how she arched her back, how her fingers were grabbing his skin, how her whole body became stiff, how she slowly opened her mouth…

And there she came, in the moment when he kissed her to muffle the cry arising from her throat, her walls tightening around his most sensitive spot, causing the last wonderful ounce of lust that he had needed to come undone himself, making them both moan into the other one's opened mouth…

Sheldon laid his head in the crook of her neck and let his body rest on Amy's for a while.
They both were excited and at the same time completely peaceful. They couldn't believe they just had done all of this. Here, in the middle of the pool. But it didn't feel wrong at all. Because they had done it with the one person in the world they would do everything with and for.

After a while they felt the chilly air again and decided to go back inside the house, hoping that Penny and Leonard would finally be asleep.

But at the door of the house they had to face an unpleasant surprise: it was locked!

"Oh no!" Sheldon was shaking the handle of the door as hard as he could, but it just wouldn't open. "Drat!"

"They thought we were already sleeping in our beds, we heard them talking at the pool", Amy tried to explain the situation.

"I know, but I'm still upset!"

"What can we do? Did you leave a window open?"

"No. But we can have a look if the others opened one when we were gone."

They sneaked around the house, but everything was closed.

"What shall we do? Wake them up? But we're completely naked, that would be humiliating!" Amy seemed desperate.

"Not my favorite solution, either. They would also know that we haven't been inside the house, yet and that we were naked at least since they took our clothes with them. Leonard might not be the brightest scientist in the world, but he's clever enough to understand what that means and I don't want to make him fun of me for the rest of my life!" Sheldon sighed deeply. "I think there's no other chance than going back to the pool. At least we can sit on soft chair pads there"

They returned to the pool and sat down on the table. But as time passed by, it became harder and harder for them to keep their eyes open.

"Do you have any idea how we shall get into the house without being seen tomorrow morning?", Amy tried to start a conversation, kneading the tablecloth between her fingers in lack of something else to keep her awake.

"No. But honestly I'm too tired to think about it. I just want to sleep… Do you think we can take advantage of the services of the new friend we've made tonight for a third time?"

"Which new friend?" Amy asked confused.

"The plastic one!"

Amy smiled tiredly. "That should be possible. He's a patient fellow. But won't it be too cold without any blankets?"

"Well, I think I've got an idea…"

Penny still felt guilty when she woke up the next morning. Why did she just push everyone in the pool? They would reproach this to her for the next ten years – at least!
She got on her feet and put all their clothes, that were almost dry now, but still full of clorine, into the washing machine (only rent a holiday house with a washing machine, thank God that Amy had insisted on that!). She even was careful to use the exact right amount of fabric softener to make Sheldon a little more merciful towards her.

Then she lay the table for breakfast, but there were no clean glasses for the orange juice in the cupboard or the dishwasher anymore. She sighed and set off to the pool to fetch the glasses they had used for their cocktails the previous evening. Washing the dishes before she even had had the first coffee? Well, probably she had to make that sacrifice to save their friendship…

Penny left the house and bend around the corner where the swimming pool was situated.

The view that she caught with her eyes, made he gasp, frown, laugh and weep, all at the same time.

The chair pads from the sitting place had been removed from their original place and were now tied together into something that looked like a mix of a tent and a very stiff blanket. Under it there was the plastic mattress that had started the eventful course of the previous evening by being blown into the water. And between, there was a cloth bundle, that, on a closer look, turned out as Sheldon and Amy wrapped tightly in the tablecloth, holding each other closely and smiling in their sleeps.

The end
