The year is 1994. The Artist finds himself in a situation no one ever thought could happen. How does he get out of it, or perhaps more importantly, how did he get there in the first place?

**The Artist POV**
We ended up being lucky enough to find a small convenience store where we could get a few supplies to hopefully last us for the week. Considering most of the stuff they carried was junk food, I have to admit I'm not so sure on that one...but we'll see.
Once we'd gotten what we could in terms of groceries, we decided to stop back at the cabin to unload everything and get ready for our beach day.
It didn't take long for us to carry our few grocery items inside, throw together a quick picnic, and put together a couple small beach bags. Before I knew it, we were back on the road.
Somehow during all of this, I kept thinking back to what happened back at the diner. That whole situation seemed off somehow. Sure Kandi appeared a little overly enthusiastic, but overall she seemed relatively harmless. But Lani's reaction really threw me for a bit of a loop. Not that I'm complaining about that kiss...
She seemed almost jealous somehow, though for the life of me I can't understand why. Suppose there's only one way to find out...

After having lunch, we found ourselves pleasantly full and getting cozy on a blanket as we look out at the lake. Lani's got her feet in my lap, as I'm giving her an impromptu foot massage.
Guess now's as a good a time as any... "Lani, I've got a question..." I begin hesitatingly, as my thumbs press gently into the arches of her feet.
She lets out a low moan at this, toes curling. "About what?" she asks, confusion evident in her sparkling ocean eyes.
"I was thinking about kiss back at the diner...." I continue as my hands make my way up to her calves, with a twinkle in my eye. "It seemed to come out of nowhere. Not that I'm complaining...but I can't help wondering, why then?"
She looks toward the ground, cheeks burning and mumbles almost inaudibly. "I was jealous..." then places her right hand over mine, stroking the back of my hand tenderly.
"What was that, mama?" I ask gently, just to be sure I heard correctly. Ahhh...now we're getting somewhere....
"I felt jealous, okay?! Kandi was all over you..." she retorts, frustration evident all over her face.
So that's what all this was about... I can't help but to let out a low chuckle over this...at least until her cerulean orbs flash icy fire. Okay...let's dial this down little mama...
"I'm sorry you felt that way, baby girl. Please believe me when I say that I only had eyes for one woman at that diner...and it wasn't Kandi..." I reply suggestively.
With that my amber gaze softens as I meet her blue one, then ignites with a slow burn as her soft pink lips lock with mine. Success!
And for a while, no more words were needed...

**Iolani POV**
**Several minutes later**
Even though we're comfortably snuggled together on the blanket, I find myself starting get restless.
Shiny eyes meeting his I make a decision, "Let's move this to the water shall we?"
"Sounds good to me," he replies with a grin.
With that, we quickly get down to our swimming suits and make our way to the water. I reach the waves first and hesitantly stick a toe in, before quickly pulling it out. Damn that's cold!
Before I know it, he's barreled past me and dove right in. When he breaks the surface I notice him start looking around before he spots me still on the shore.
Before I know it, he's stalking toward me with a wicked grin on his face. Eep!
Just as I think of bolting, he's made his way back over to me. He hefts me over his shoulder as though I weigh almost nothing as he carries me back toward the waves, shrieking and pounding on his back.
Completely unaffected, he gives a hearty chuckle before tossing me directly into the freezing cold lake. Oh, it's on!

Our frolicking came to an abrupt end as I suddenly realized that somewhere along the way my top had gone missing. Shit!
Feeling a little self-conscious I moved to cover myself with my hands, which only brought his attention to my situation. Now what?
His golden gaze turns heated as it meets my embarrassed one, before dropping down to my hands shielding my breasts from his view. He gently places his hands over mine, then nudges them away from my breasts and down towards my sides. His eyes light up at the sight, and I hear a quiet murmur of appreciation as his eyes land on my bare chest. "Beautiful..."
He moves in to capture my lips in a heated kiss, his tongue quickly probes my lips for entrance. I grant this with a whimper, and our tongues start to fight for dominance. I quickly lose the battle as I feel his right hand carefully move to tenderly cup my bare left breast, thumb grazing my nipple with reverence. Mmmmm...
Before things could go any further, I felt a sting on the bottom of my left foot. What the hell!
"Ouch!" Jerking away quickly in pain, I lift my foot out of the water finding it covered in blood. Fuck this hurts! I must've stepped on something.
Both of us take a quick glance down hoping to find whatever I've managed to catch my foot on, and to our surprise our eyes latch onto a large sharp piece of coral jutting out of a bed of seaweed on the lake floor. Seriously?!
It looked a little like this...

Seeing the pained expression on my face and my blood soaked foot, he quickly lifts me out the water and into his arms, carrying me back to shore.
A careful inspection of my foot and several bandages later, our beach day came to an abrupt end.
