No, this was so wrong, he does not like lillies. He loves sunflowers. He should not be here, all alone, surrounded by those cold flowers, when he had always longed for the warmth of the 'happy flowers' making him smile.
Deep desperation penetrated...
The blue was startling. For a moment Michael was unable to decide if it was more reminiscent of a clear lake with reflected sparkles of golden light or if it was indeed a perfect match to the azure heights above them. Either way- water or air- both were essential to life. As was she. It was a miracle how he had survived without being able to gaze into Lisa’s eyes.
She caught him staring and her expression turned cheeky.
“What?”
“Nothing. Just being pulled into those mysteries of your eyes again. They are like a sweet, dangerous honey trap.”

Lisa laughed and sat up, leaning against him. “Are you saying I’m trying to trap you, dear?”
“No trying to it! You did it already. And I am your most willing captive.”
“I would not call you ‘most willing.’ More like I had to drag and pull you back to me.”
Michael reached around and kissed her.
“I like to play hard to get.”
“No shit. But I like it when you play hard…or get hard...”
The naughty hand reached behind her and found the part of his anatomy that could not behave around her.
“Lisa- the kids!”
“What? They are still trying to catch something in that pond. I sure hope they don’t succeed! I’m not about to take a flipping fish off a hook.”
Michael listened to the chatter of the kids down by the little pond they had stopped by. Staff had driven out to their picnic spot and delivered baskets with sandwiches and coolers with water and juices. Lisa and he indulged in some cool beer after the kids went to tempt their luck at fishing.
This was their second family outing- the first one with both sets of kids together. So far, so good. Despite the location Lisa had chosen, he found himself relaxing. Then again, the peaceful location of the valley was the reason he had chosen to establish his Neverland here in the first place.
