All is Fair

The squawking of the scaled seagulls in the late morning sky, rose two sleepy heads from their slumber.

"Ugh….shut...up…" Mika groaned, turning over to snuggle down into Ailwin's warm chest.

Ailwin felt the cold tips of her toes touched his legs and moved his arms to encircle her body.

"We should head back to the palace." His morning voice was smooth and deep, she could feel the vibration of it through his chest.

"No, I don't want to move."

"It's already late into the morning...I need to check on the situation outside." Patting her butt to urge her to get moving. Ailwin left the warmth of the bed and walked to the edge of the pool.

Looking down at the clear water he wondered if her friends were still inside, "Are they in there?"

Mika peeked open her eyes saw Ailwin's physique from the back and forgot to answer his question.
