~ Maddi and Elijah, enjoying the lagoon and then getting back to girl's camp ~<br/><br/>Maddi could not only see the struggle Elijah was waging, she could feel it too.  He just couldn't hide what he actually wanted to do, and the more he talked, the more obvious it was.  As he washed her she let herself drift into the sensations, knowing that it was a beginning not an end.<br/><br/>As he swam off she called him back, "Hang on Elijah, I have something to show you too."  She saw the flicker of doubt in his eyes, and as she got out of the water, she called out, "No really, just hang on a second."<br/><br/>She had already seen the plant she wanted, in the shade of the trees and pulling out a couple she picked up a small rock and went back to where they had been washing and slipped into the water beside him.  She rinsed the roots she had picked and then in a depression in the rock pounded them with the stone, adding handfuls of water occasionally.   Cupping her hand into the foamy mess she scooped the now white, slightly frothy water and rubbed it over his chest, grinning at the look of pleasure, bordering on bliss, on his face.<br/><br/>He was so wrapped up in the foamy lather she'd made from the soap root as she washed him, it wasn't until she pushed his shorts off and stated to caress his groin, and his semi-hard penis started to grow again that he groaned, "Minx......." Her hands soaped him, bringing him more and more to life as she hummed in agreement.  Getting into the spirit of things only a few moments later his soapy hands were on her breasts, gliding across the smooth skin, oiling her nipples and then using the lubrication to tease them unmercifully.<br/><br/>They started their lovemaking in the water, and then progressed to the shore, the long languorous communion of their bodies grew until both of them could take it no longer and it ended up a triumphant medley whose beat quickened and fierceness grew until it exploded in a completion that left them both gasping, dazed and completely sated.<br/><br/>As they washed again, teasing, laughing and letting the wonder of the morning sing to them Maddi felt her heart was growing in her chest, swelling with such joy she could hardly contain it.  They walked back to the girl's camp in their wet clothes, holding hands, comfortably silent, until Maddi saw Kira, her back towards her, looking at Des on the beach down by the sea and called out, "Kira...!"
