Is this destiny?

Chapter 516 - Perfect Date - Day 2 (2)

Aiden and Sarah are holding each other and walking through the tropical jungle. They are following a narrow trail made out of small pebbles, obviously well maintained, since there is no grass or anything else sticking out of place.

As they walked, sound of the waterfall was getting closer, and when they emerged between two bushes, there it was: a picture perfect scene of a small clearing of low cut grass, on three sides surrounded with bushes filled with colorful blooms, and tall trees; on the fourth side clearing opens up to a crystal clear lake and a tall cliff in the distance from which a waterfall crashes into the far side of the lake.

In the middle of the lake there is a small island which holds a white gazebo.

Aiden smiled as he looked at Sarah's expression. In his mind, he counted this as another success.

Sarah could not hide that she is impressed.

Aiden led her to the edge of the lake, and she saw two towels neatly folded, waiting for them.

When Sarah looked at Aiden, their eyes met. He placed a gentle kiss on her lips and tilted his head toward the gazebo. "Lunch is there."

"Oh…", Sarah realized that they will have lunch in the middle of the lake with an amazing view of the waterfall! She looked around and was confused. "I don't see any boat."

Aiden revealed a mischievous smile. He was waiting for her to notice. "We will not use one."

"How are we going to reach there?", she was still looking around, thinking that she missed something.

"Follow my lead…", Sarah heard him say.

It took her a minute to look at him and realize that he removed his clothes and is pulling down his underwear.

Aiden observed Sarah's stunned and completely red face and tilted his head slightly. "Don't tell me you haven't seen this before?", he was referring to his naked body.

"There is no one here except for two of us… Do you need help?" He was in front of her, removing her dress.

Sarah stood in place, frozen. Only when her dress was on the ground and he reached to remove her bra did she step back and bashfully tried to cover herself up with her hands.

"You either remove it, or it will get wet.", Aiden said with a chuckle, and jumped in the water after seeing that she will not let him undress her further.

Sarah was still stunned. She was never naked in open, without walls protecting her, or the dark, or something that can provide privacy.

'OK, OK! I can do this!', She was giving herself a pep-talk. 'He did it. If I don't, he will make fun of me… and he already saw everything… I can do this!' Sarah took a deep breath, swiftly removed her bra and panties and jumped in the lake.

Island is a short swim away, and Sarah was pleasantly surprised to see that there were neatly folded towels, bathrobes as well as slippers waiting for them.

Gazebo had a comfortable deep seating all around, except for the small gap where entrance is. Fluffy pillows are neatly arranged on the seating area and in the middle was a table, filled with covered plates, obviously containing dishes that were prepared for their lunch. Under the table was a cooler filled with beverages.

"My love…", Aiden extended his arm to Sarah, palm up.

She did her best not to show how wildly her heart is beating as she placed her hand in his and followed him into the gazebo. His words, his smile, how he looked at her, the whole atmosphere… everything was an emotional overload. Her cheeks were red, and her lips were curved into a smile. She was not able to control those.

He was making sure that plate in front of her is full of food, before getting some for himself.

"Why are you not eating?", he asked thinking that maybe something is wrong with the food. He saw her staring at him, but he still thought that she should eat. It was past lunchtime.

When she didn't respond, he tapped tip of her nose and startled her. "Eat... it's best when it's fresh."

Sarah nodded, but still didn't start eating. Her brain short-circuited and she only stared at him. They were sitting in a gazebo, in the middle of the lake, surrounded with a jungle, wearing thin bathrobes. Space was filled with sounds of a waterfall and tropical birds. Array of exquisite dishes was in front of them. And Sarah was only seeing Aiden, like a love-stricken fool. And she started understanding the meaning of his words that he will romance her until he makes her his, because this was different, more intense than she ever felt before. But she didn't like that her body was non-responsive; no matter how much she tried to snap out of her daze, it didn't listen.

"Here…", Aiden hovered a fork with food in front of Sarah's mouth. "Be a good girl and open… aaa…", he treated her like she is a toddler?! But it worked. She opened her mouth and he placed food inside. It was herbal, salty, and she didn't care what it was. Whatever he offered, she would take it. And he fed her. One bite for her, one for him… until both plates were empty. As she ate, Sarah managed to collect herself, but she liked that he is feeding her, so she didn't take her utensils. She just opened her mouth, waiting for her next bite, and he indulged her gladly.

Aiden reached under the table, and from a separate cooler, or maybe a freezer, he pulled out ice cream.

Sarah licked her lips, and her face showed excitement.

He laughed seeing her act so silly… overly excited about an ice cream.

She didn't reach for a spoon, so he continued feeding her.

Part of him grumbled internally: 'Does she not know how much time I took to personally pick all those dishes, and instruct how they should be prepared? And at the end, ice cream gets her most excited…'

When he saw her smack her lips in satisfaction while eating ice cream, he sighed in resignation. 'She is happy. That is all that counts.'

Sarah closed her eyes and enjoyed being pampered by him.

Unfortunately for her (or not), because her eyes were closed, she missed that his expression changed from dotting one to a mischievous.

Sarah felt something extremely cold slip down her cleavage and she screamed for a second until she realized that it's the ice cream. She reached for a napkin, but Aiden held her hand.

"Don't wipe it off… it will be a waste of a perfectly good ice cream…", he mumbled while untying her robe and diving toward her to lick the ice cream off. He pushed her down with his body and his cold tongue licked until there was no more ice cream on her.

Sarah trembled and closed her eyes, enjoying the cleaning service he provided. When he stopped, she was disappointed that it ended… but it was only for a second, because in next moment, another icy sensation hit her abdomen as he used the spoon to spread the ice cream. Sarah was unable to control herself, the cold was too much to handle, and she screamed again, scaring some of the birds which rested on top of the gazebo.

Aiden diligently licked icy dessert and sucked the melted bits which pooled in her navel. And she wished that he moves lower. And he did. She felt his cold tongue explore between her folds, and his hands firmly holding onto her hips… his tongue gradually shifted from cold to hot.. And not long after, she screamed again, even though he didn't put any more ice cream on her body.
