He savored the feeling of the soft, supple skin of her hand on his face for a moment before she pulled him close and pressed their foreheads together.<br/><br/>For a moment Gregory said nothing when she spoke.

He said with a smile as he held her close. Content to sit where they were and watch the surf break on the shore as long as he was with her.<br/><br/><br/><br/>
