I don't know what I'm looking for
Vesper grunts softly at the sudden weight of her, the smooth flex of her legs wrapping tight around his hips like it’s exactly where she belongs. The cold of the ocean vanishes beneath the contrast of her body pressed to his—slick, strong and unrelenting. His arm loops under her thighs without thinking, the other bracing against the small of her back, holding her steady even as the sea churns around them.
The kiss doesn’t come. Not yet. And gods, that restraint burns.
He can feel it in the tension of her muscles, the proximity of her lips, the way her breath brushes his cheek with every near-miss, like she’s baiting him. Testing how long he can hover at the edge without breaking as if their entire morning hadn't been a lesson in just that. His jaw clenches, his eyes locked on hers through the salt and the shadows. And then, in a voice that rumbles straight from his chest: "You’re makin’ it real hard not to drown us both."
It’s a half-threat, half-plea, though there’s no real risk—not unless she keeps looking at him like that. He leans in close again, his nose brushing hers, the hand at her back shifting lower until his fingers slip just beneath the curve of her ass as he uses his body to brace against the waves before sinking down onto his knees lest they get swept entirely out to sea.
