the sounds of the waves crashing ashore violently as he started across the wide clearing of sand. His wondering was interrupted by a dog barking in the clearing, then he caught sight of Lacey sitting on a large log, watching the sunset. Sidetracking across the stretch of beach, he walked towards them.
     
    He   was half way to the log when the dog caught sight of him and ran towards him.  Bernard’s ears were flying in the cold breeze and he had a large stick in his mouth. Aaron was positive, the dog was smiling.
     
    Lacey had made no movement and seemed deep in   thought until Aaron threw Bernard’s stick over her head.  She jumped up and looked guilty, but then she rose and started walking towards him.  He loved the way she walked; her strides seemed to quickly eat up the ground between them.
     
    How could someone so small walk so fast?
     
    He’d enjoyed seeing her at the grocery store a few days earlier. And as he watched her march up to him, he realized   he wanted to rile her up again. However, his wants might have to be put on hold, as it appeared Lacey had something on her mind.
     
    Her face was set with determination, and when she stopped her hands went to her hips.
     
    “ Why is it Dr. Stevens that wherever I am, there you are?” she said a little out of breath from the quick walk across the wet sand.
     
    She looked like she could have just walked out of the sea herself, her face was flush; and her short hair was blowing frantically as she waited for a reply.
     
    Tonight she wore a large bright green jacket, black leggings, and a pair of old brown boots. He could make out a pair of bright green socks with frogs on them, poking out from the above the boots. The darkness of her outfit accented the color of her eyes   along with the beauty of her face.
     
    Her lips pouted when he didn’t reply fast enough,   making Aaron smile.  He closed the rest of the distance between them and pulled her close. He could hear her breath hitch and saw anger   flash in her eyes.
     
    “ What do you think you are doing?” she asked trying to pull away. “I am not a play thing for you to paw,” she got no further, as his mouth claimed hers.
     
    After her head stopped spinning she realized her hands were gripping his shoulders.   She couldn’t believe it. Here he was walking on her beach. Damn it all, what was the man doing on her beach?  Was no place of hers sacred anymore?
     
    He shifted his head for a better angle, which allowed her to wrap her arms around his shoulders.
     
    Bernard was happily running around them in circles as Aaron kissed every last drop of anger from her body.
     
    She could still smell the water but now could smell him. He smelled of sawdust and paint. Why did she find that sexy?   How was she supposed to stay mad with a man who could kiss her like this?
     
    His lips softened and his warm body moved closer as his hands roamed up and down her back sending sweet waves of desire coursing throughout all of her limbs.
     
    As she ran her hands through his hair she felt him shutter and a feeling of power raced through her, along with desire.
     
    Was she trying to kill him? He knew he had started it and to be honest, he thought he could keep himself in check. However, now he could swear she was the one in control.  A soft sweet moan escaped her lips which sent chills coursing throughout his entire body.
     
    He ran his hands up and down her spine and felt her melt against him. Maybe neither of them was in control?
     
    He reached under her jacket and felt her warm soft skin.
     
    “ Please.” she said when he ran his mouth down her long neck. He was enjoying the   soft taste of her ear lobe, nibbling on the sweetness of it.
     
    “ Please what?  Tell me what you want.” he asked as he continued kissing   her neck.  He couldn’t stop shaking as she ran her hands over his shoulders and grabbed his hair and pulled his mouth back to her own.
     
    He came back to reality
