Blue Moon (gxg)

"Your back beneath the sun..." (27)

"It's a surprise... stop asking..." Bella giggled as we walked through the resort.
It must have been the third time I asked her what surprise she had planned this time but she is not giving up...

"Come on, just tell me..." I pouted at her.

She rolled her eyes, giggling again:
"If I tell you, Ellie... it will no longer be surprise. Be patient, we are almost here..." She raised an eyebrow and pointed her eyes toward the exit gate of the resort.

I squeezed her hand tightly as I smiled.
"This is like the third surprise you did for me..." I pointed out.
She winked: "Yeah, who's counting, anyway?"

I turned around but the only thing I saw was a parked car right in front of the resort.
I didn't pay much attention to it, so I waited for her to give me some real hint.

Bella for some reason stopped right in front of that car.
Now I gave it a little more attention... it was small white, very shiny convertible.

"So?" She asked me, raising an eyebrow mischievously.
"So, what?" I laughed at her.

Bella lifted her chin slightly pointing to the car in front of: "Do you like it?" She smiled.
"What do you mean?"
"I reserved this car for a couple of hours..." She announced me, then opened the door on the passenger side.

I remained stunned by that announcement.
I felt my stomach twist with happiness.

I grabbed her wrist to stop whatever she was doing to hug her.
I hugged her so tightly that we both almost fell to the ground, we both laughed about it.

"I don't know how to thank you anymore... you really are..." I stared at her still unable to find the right words.
Bella smiled warmly: "For a car ride? Come on, Ellie, get in, let's drive."

I squeezed her hand: "It is really important for me." I whispered, smiling.
"It's important for me too." She kissed my cheek and opened the door's car for me.

Bella went to the driver's side.
She turned the keys and started the car.
I was feeling like a little girl getting into a car for the first time.

Everything felt new to me.
Everything felt so different to me; it tasted different.

"When did you have time to reserve it, by the way?" I asked her as I stared stunning at that car.
Bella laughed: "Last night... let's say after midnight..."

The road was clear in front of us, so she pressed on the accelerator and I felt a strong rush of adrelin and a strong sense of freedom in my body.
I turned up the volume of the radio, "August" by Taylor Swift was playing from the car speakers.

I don't know why but I focused on the way Bella was driving.
She was very sensual.
She just looked like a model in a car commercial, yet, as always, she made it look as natural as possible.

Bella was singing to that song.
... her long red hair in the wind.
...her arms, her breast, the way her fingers ticked on the steering wheel following the rhythm of the music.

"Give me your hand." Bella affirmed.
"You're driving..."
Her eyes still focused on the road as she spoke: "Not touching you is distracting me. Do you want me to get distracted while driving?"
She definitely know how to tease.

I immediately put a hand on her bare leg: "Not ever..."

We felt the need to touch each other, so we kept finding that silly excuses just to touch each other again.
Anything to feel a thrill again.

At one point I looked enchanted over the horizon in front of us:
"Bella... look at that beach over there..." I pointed her to a patch of beach in the distance.
I don't know why but in that place the sand was golden yellow and the sea was the color of cobalt.
She made a satisfied smile: "...And there's exactly where we should stop..." She commented.
