The dancing had been lovely.

The picnic dinner that Granny had made them was divine.

They found a linen closet and a bedroom with a large bed.

Quickly they put the sheets on the bed.

Slowly they removed each other’s clothing just enjoying the touching of skin and lips.

They fell into the bed and explored each other’s bodies with both passion and some shyness.

Each had their concerns about their performance but neither should have been.

The act had been tender and satisfying for both parties.

Both were sated and happy.

One fell deep asleep and the other couldn’t.
