Chapter 10

Carisa could walk. Her feet were fine now, but she loved the feeling of all of Wyatt’s muscular power beneath her, loved watching him flex and stretch and move with so little effort down the path. With a reluctant sigh, she tapped his shoulder. “Hey, I can walk now.”

He turned his head. “You sure, cause I kind of like being choked by you.”

She gasped and moved her hands. “I didn’t realize. I’m so sorry.”

“No, I’m kidding.” He stopped and crouched so that her feet touched the ground.

“Thanks. How much farther do you think?”

“The website said the whole hike was four miles total, so we should be getting close.”

When they rounded the next bend, the ocean came into view and their elevation was significantly lower. In fact, one more switch back and Carisa thought for sure they’d be down on the sand. “I can’t wait to see the turtles. I didn’t check. Is this the season for turtles?”

He shrugged. “I don’t know, but I thought the hike would be cool and then the water. We’ve got to get down to the beach more while we’re here.”

“I’m game.” She picked up the pace. “Come on. Now that I know it’s close I’m excited.”

“Ha, says the woman who only just started walking on her own.”

Carisa stopped and turned. “You’re so right. I’m sorry. Do you need to take a breather?”

“Nah, come on!” He ran past her. “Race you to the sand.”

She picked up her pace, taking the lead for about three strides until he came up beside her and they ran, side by side the rest of the way. She was giving it everything she had and she was sure he only ran at half mast, but she loved the feel of her lungs stretching and her thighs burning.

They ran out onto the sand, turned in circles and then stopped. “Nothing.” Carisa kicked into the hot sand with her shoe. “It’s completely empty.”

“Maybe it’s not the season after all.”

“True.” She ran toward the water. “But hey, ocean.”

He took off after her and kicked off his shoes in the process. Then they sat on the edge of the hot dry sand, right before the waves touched the beach and took off their socks. With bare feet tickling in the sand, they turned to each other. Carisa knew Wyatt was gonna want to go in, but hike back in wet clothes?

“You know what I’m thinking.” Wyatt indicated the water. “You in?”

“You know what I’m thinking. Gross sandy clothes chafing my legs all the way back.”

He pretended to be deep in though, rubbed the scruff on his chin for emphasis. “And your thinking supports my thinking, cause now I’m thinking we ditch the clothes.”

Her face immediately flamed red. She could feel it and a delicious fear filled her. “No way. Anyone could come down here. Or see us from the trail.”

“I’m not saying all our clothes. I’m not an exhibitionist.”

“I should hope not.”

“Just to our unders. I’ve seen yours already. See. Sports bra. You’ve been wearing it this whole time.
