Last Night

Chapter Seven

Once having left the apartment block I continue to walk towards the beach. This little town is beautiful at night, hanging baskets and flowers embellish the already pretty town. Little lanterns hang from each and every shop and house. It's still bright out but they give little light spots on the cobbled pavements. 

After about fifteen minutes of walking I reach the tree line which surrounds the beach. Stopping before passing through them I fixed my hair.

'I am pretty'  I had to tell myself in the fear that I might back out and run away. I took in a deep breath and walked out of the tree line onto the beach.

It looked amazing.

The beach was even more magnificent at night. The sun was just setting on the horizon, creating a beautiful back drop for this little paradise.

Sitting in the middle of the beach was Havery Brooks also known as Prince Charming. He had a picnic blanket laid out and candles surrounding it - a slight fire hazard but I didn't care. He sat in the centre and to the side of him there was a wicker basket, next to that sat two bottles of wine and a bottle of champagne - how much did he think I'd be drinking?! Although I could probably drink the three without a problem with my over familiarity of the bottle shall we say.

"Mia!" he shouted ever so egarly as he stood up. He looked just as beautiful tonight as he had this very morning. He wore khaki shorts and left his loose white shirt open, revealing his muscled torso. There was a slight breeze which added to his beauty as his hair blew about, it really did make sense he was a part time swimsuit model.

He greeted me with one of the best hugs I think I've ever had in my life. It was like a 'mum hug' you know? Those warm squishy ones. It was like a mum hug combined with the most sexual tension ever.

"Wow, you look amazing"

I couldn't see my cheeks and there was no way I'd be able to but I can assure you they were the darkest colour of red you could get and then blush.

"Aww, thanks, it's nothing really" I managed to stutter. "Oh and wow to you too" I am definitely a hopeless romantic.

He just laughed, emphasising his strong cheekbones and dazzling white eyes.

"Shall we?" He asked as he motioned towards the first of the wine bottles. I picked up one of his two wine glasses and held it out in front of me in response. Harvey filled mine then his.

"To drunken dates!" I shouted as we tapped our glasses together. This was good wine. Expensive stuff. Not the cheap crap I've had on most of my previous dates. I think if I'm honest I drank it slightly too quickly but I knew I could handle it.

"so, tell me about yourself Harvey Brooks. I don't know anything about you, well except you're a law student and part time swimsuit model."

"Well I'm 23, live alone, love the beach and have two brothers who emigrated to Australia. You? Miss Queen bitch psychology student?"

"There's not much too tell to be honest. An idiot who scraped her way into university - god knows how, parties too much, hooks up with the wrong guys and gets hurt. Oh and zero self esteem."

"I wouldn't say that's nothing!" He laughed and I could see his sparkling white teeth. He is so beautiful.

"I don't know why you're so unappreciative to yourself you know." He whispered breaking the silence. "You are so beautiful, the perfect girl, and I've only known you a day."

I grinned from ear to ear. "I wasn't always like this." I say sheepishly. "Just things have happened which have knocked my self confidence, and I don't not accept compliments for attention or anything I just genuinely don't believe them."

He smiled and stroked my cheek, pushing my hair back, causing shivers to tingle down my back. Then it happened, he leaned in towards me and closed his eyes, I replicated his motions and our lips touched. The feeling was unbeatable, I've never felt like this before. All my senses went into overdrive. I opened my mouth wide, allowing his ever eager tounge entry. He was good at this. His tounge, once granted entry, danced across the tip of my own, taunting me as to what was ahead. I pushed my tounge into his mouth, determined to show him just what I could do. I ticked the front of his mouth with mine and he repositioned his mouth so he and I both got the benefit. Our kiss slowly finished after a fair bit of lip biting and teasing.

My body was shaking. Harvey Brooks had given me more pleasure in one kiss than my previous partner had in four months.

"Wow, that's definitely your forte." he said smirking.

"You're not too bad yourself." I chuckle in reply.
