Chapter 36

"Really?" he kissed her fingers. "Well if you want trouble Mellie, I can promise you all sorts of trouble out on the road... anything you want out there.. I can give it to ya."

She curled into his body more, "Sounds like a plan my fine fellow."

He purred low in his throat and bent to trace his tongue where his fingers had been seconds before. As he worked his way up to her lips he swore. She was damn near snoring. She'd passed out on him.... out here? He glanced down at his raging hard on. Damn that saké to hell!

He sighed and sat for a few moments looking at the shoreline in the moonlight. It wasn’t all that deep here, if he got a few yards in he could touch bottom. He glanced at her passed out form then slipped into the water grumbling. And she claims I get her into trouble?

He reached up and grabbed her hands "Come on Mel come into the water with me" he crooned loudly as he sat her up and slumped her forward putting her arms around his neck before carefully sliding her into the water with him. He steadied himself a moment with his other hand on the float.

She squirmed close to the warmth, and reached for her blanket. Damn it had gotten cold. She shivered; her voice murmuring about the chill of the night. "Colllld."

"I know I know....." he reassured her " I need you to hold onto me darlin' can ya do that?"

She drifted off loving the heat, her arms slipping around his neck, her legs around his waist as she wiggled and tried to get closer. "mmhmmmm.”

He felt his body respond, even in the cold water, his cock tensed and jerked as he moaned then swore. "okay here we go..." He let go of the float and with one hand stroked towards the shore kicking his feet and holding onto her tightly with the other

She went to turn over in the bed, the warmth kept moving dammit, her hand reaching out to pull it in closer. Her soft voice murmured aggravatedly about wiggly heaters as she scrunched in attempting to get warm. And dammit now she had to go too.

Her movements were just enough to throw him off pace and under they went. He fought to keep a hold of her. His foot hit bottom and he pushed back up sputtering and dragging her with him "Damn it Mel!" he fussed. If this didn't bring back memories! He was forever getting her out of one sticky situation or another... but it was always his fault. As he sputtered he almost laughed at the irony.

She smiled as her lips slid along wet skin and she nuzzled in. There was the most delicious heat teasing her, making her feel all cozy and needy, but that silly cold kept intruding on the feeling. She whimpered out a sigh, and held tighter to the heat.

He worried for a moment that she might have swallowed water when they went under but it was obvious she hadn’t. He groaned and whispered a soft "stop that," as his feet finally found bottom. He scooped her up in his arms and walked through the water to the shore. Once near the car he managed to open the passenger door and deposit her dripping wet and naked into the seat. Leaving the door open, he went in search of their clothing before returning.

He laid her dress between his seat and hers, and placed her heels on the floorboard. He’d dress her, the best he could, in a minute. He stepped back to throw his clothes on, then turned back to fight with her half coherent form. Tugging the dress over her head, he lifted her hips sliding the dress down over her ass. His hands lingered a moment too long on her bare flesh there. Once she was covered he closed the door and walked to the driver side. With a sigh he cranked the engine and headed toward home.

Ohhhh warmth! She slid in and lay down, and nuzzled into the pillow, her nose burrowing into the lumps as she tried to smooth them out slightly. Nice pillow, smelled so good, just like him the night he'd slept over. Richie pillow was the best.

He drove on glancing at her sleeping form once in awhile. He let his one arm circle her shoulders as she snuggled into him. His place was closer; he'd go there, tuck her into bed and let her sleep it off.
