This is a wasted trip. When I get to the lake, he won’t be there. She felt tears suddenly well up behind her sunglasses.

Jenny turned off Highway 30 where the sign said, "Eagle Point Lake and Dam". "You still with me Bo?" Jenny glanced back at the little yellow trailer.

She drove across the dam, then down a long road that lead to the Cherry Cove fishing dock. He’s there!

She saw him wave. He’s smiling!

"Well, you’re right on time," he said cheerfully as she brought her scooter to a stop in front of him.

"I-I knew you would be on time, so the least I could do would be to accommodate," she said, her voice trembling with relief.

Robert stepped to her, put his arms around her and squeezed her until her eyes nearly popped out.

"I think you missed me," she gasped. He felt so good against her. He smelled of aftershave and soap, and she felt sinfully pleasured with his mere closeness.

"I’ve missed you terribly, Jenny." He tipped her face up to his and caught her lips in a soft kiss. Her mouth parted, inviting him in. He outlined her lips with his tongue, tasting her, drinking her in. Then he probed tentatively, until she welcomed him and their faces were welded together in a steaming heat.

She gasped for air, then broke the kiss. "Robert! Too fast, too fast!" she gasped as she twisted away.

"Sorry, sorry," Robert apologized as he let go of her. "So sorry."

She embraced him, again, not wanting him to leave her completely. "That’s okay, Robert. You just surprised me. I thought...I thought I had you all figured out and then you surprise me like this. This new aggressive you will take some getting used to."

"You like the new aggressive me?" he asked, a smile of satisfaction on his boyish face.

"I think so. But you have to move a little slower, Robert."

He took her hand. "I have a much better idea. Let’s take our poles down to the dock and see where that takes us. There’s no hurry. We have the rest of our lives." He grinned.

The rest of our lives?
