This makes us giggle, and giggles start lighting fires again... but just as I feel him hardening inside me once more, there are shouts somewhere down the path, and the sound of tramping footsteps.
In a flash, Sebastian pulls out, hauls up my jeans and panties, and swathes his Belstaff around him. Then, he tugs my own coat closed, and hustles me to the back of the shelter where we plonk ourselves down upon the bench.
I grunt when my sore bum hits the seat. But by the time another couple, the argumentative pair from the room next door to us, stomp along the path, remonstrating loudly with each other, my husband and I are sitting together, primly bundled up in our coats and having a civilized conversation about something we didn't really watch on the television last night.
When the combatants are out of earshot, we both laugh like maniacs, and finally put our clothing fully to rights. I even manage not to cry when the clamps come off.
"Come on, gorgeous," Sebastian urges me as we set off down back to the hotel, but at a stately pace in deference to my sizzling hind parts.
At the foot of the hill, though, he pauses, takes my face between his two hands and kisses me again, very slowly and reverently.
"You're beautiful," he tells me, "And you know I love you, don't you?" He grins, and his pale blue eyes twinkle. "Especially when you've got roses in your cheeks..."
I twinkle back at him, and return his kiss with equal tenderness, my heart as happy as my bottom is rosy pink.
