The moon cast a soft, silver glow over the tranquil waters of the Summer Court ocean. You watched the gentle waves of the water Wash up on the bank of the beach and back again as you waited. "Sorry I'm a little late," you heard a familiar soft voice say. You smiled as you turned to face your High Lord, Tarquin. The reflection from the moon on the water hit his turquoise eyes. Giving them a soft shimmer. "Are you ready to swim?" he asked. You and the royal fae had been having these secret little swims for years. You two wanted to keep things as secret as possible.

If it got wind that the high lord was courting a servant gossip and rumors would overrun. And Tarquin didn't want that. Not for himself, but for you. So that no one bothered you just because you've captured his heart.

"Always," you said as he took your hand in his and kissed your palm softly. He led you into the water. The coolness refreshing against the warm summer air. The farther you swam out the more the world seemed to fade away around the two of you. Just the two of you under the star-scattered sky. You were so lost in the stars you jumped when a small splash of water hit you. Then you heard Tarquin softly chuckling. "Did you just splash me Lord Tarquin?" you grinned.

"Hmm?" Tarquin pretended to ponder, "Did I?" You grinned and before you knew you were having a small splash battle. Soon you both stopped to catch your breath. Things were silent for a moment other than the soft sound of distant waves. Your gaze met those beautiful, soft turquoise eyes. A soft expression came over the young high lord's face.

"You're beautiful," he said. His tone was so soft and sweet. You blushed feeling a warmth within you that had nothing to do with the summer air. Tarquin swam over to you. He gently caressed your cheek before leaning in and taking your lips in his. The kiss was sweet and gentle. Even as he pulled you closer the kiss stayed that way. When you needed air Tarquin broke the kiss and rested his forehead against yours. "I love you," he whispered.
