Trevor skillfully drove through the traffic on Interstate 275. He got off on the downtown exit, which led directly to the pier.
All was quiet. Couples walked slowly along holding hands.
How romantic. She and Telvin had never done this.
Trevor pulled up to the valet parking area. They waited for the attendant, who ran over immediately. Trevor handed the eager young man his keys.
“Nice ride,” the young man commented as he gazed enviously at the latest model Mercedes. Trevor shrugged off the compliment and Panzina smiled at his modesty. From each encounter she discovered more redeeming qualities in Trevor.
“Panzi, do you want to catch the shuttle?” he asked.
“No. I’d rather walk,” she told him. So, the two declined taking the shuttle that would get them to the pier in mere minutes; they opted to walk and enjoy the evening.
The sun setting over the horizon made a beautiful picture. It was postcard perfect. A cool, salty breeze blew in from the ocean.
“You come down here often?” she asked.
“I’m here often for work purposes, unfortunately, not for leisure. However, I do enjoy it when I get a chance to come. It’s relaxing.”
“Yes, it is.” She stopped to look over the seawall into the murky, water. Trevor watched her. He thought about how it would feel to touch her smooth skin. What would her soft body feel like close to his? She turned and caught the heat in his gaze. Her heart stirred. He was so handsome! Something she couldn’t read smoldered in his eyes.
“You do water sports?” he asked, shaking the erotic thoughts from his head.
“No, I’m afraid not. My fiancé isn’t the outdoors type. He doesn’t like to do anything except vegetate on the couch in front of a ball game.”
Telvin sounds like a regular bore.
“Let’s take a walk.” He changed the subject quickly, as the mention of Telvin irritated him. He saw no reason to bring Telvin to the beach with them, so he wouldn’t. Three’s a crowd.
“Okay,” she answered. “It’s such a beautiful night.”
“Yes, it is,” he agreed. “Perfect.” His eyes searched hers as he spoke the words. Panzina looked out over the water and tried to avoid his gaze. That was impossible. She found herself drawn to his beautiful face again and again. His eyes seemed to have a hypnotic effect on her.
They took off their shoes and felt the cool sand between their toes. They walked for a moment, fingers entwined. Panzina broke away and ran towards the waves. As the foamy, wet, water touched her bare feet she let out a startled yelp.
“It’s cold!” she gasped. Trevor’s rolling laughter echoed through the night air.
“It’s tolerable.” He waded in up to his ankles.
“Is it?” She had an impish glint in her eyes that he couldn’t see in the darkness. Trevor found himself getting a full face of cold, salty water.
“You!” he spluttered. “I’ll get you for that!” He wiped the water from his face and eyes.
Panzina took off running along the sandy shore. She knew that he’d pursued her when she heard his footsteps slapping against the sand.
