The two made love in the open, on the soft grass, and accompanied by the gentle breeze that brought the fragrance of wildflowers from the field.
When they were satisfied, Therius kissed Emma's hair and spooned her, enjoying the fact that their heartbeats slowly began to tune. When their panting had subsided and they both relaxed, Emma turned around and looked at Therius with a flushed face.
"Do you want to wash up?" she whispered.
Therius nodded. He kissed Emma on the lips one more time, then got up and pulled Emma's hand toward the lake.
"Want to jump together?" he asked.
Emma nodded. The two of them ran together while holding hands then jumped together into the lake. Therius and Emma's bodies entered the water and emerged a second later with wet heads and hair.
