“I sure like you in that swimsuit, Val.”

I sit up and turn toward him.

“Thanks, but I don’t feel all that comfortable wearing it out in public.”

“Why not? You look great in it.”

“I just don’t feel comfortable in the swimsuit. I thought you’d like it, so I bought it on impulse. I kind of forgot I’d have to wear it out in public. I didn’t bring another swimsuit, but I have a short wrap-around skirt. I think I’ll put it on.”

I stand up and reach into my beach bag to get the black skirt when we both notice a guy on a bicycle. As he rides by he gives me a smile and a wave, “Nice suit,” then he notices Chase and starts pedaling faster down the beach.

“Hmm. On second thought, go ahead and put on that skirt. I don’t like other dudes checking out my wife,” he says darkly. “With you wearing that, they can’t help but look. You have a gorgeous ass, Val. But I think I like being the only one who has the right to see it—“ He gives me a possessive look. “Naked, that is.”

“This skirt is more like shorts that look like a skirt.” I stand and wrap it around my hips. Then, I turn and look at Chase over my shoulder.

“Does this look okay?”

“Yes.”

“I’ll probably get rid of the suit—“

“No, don’t do that. Keep it. I like it. You can wear it just for me, maybe when we cook out in the backyard or around the house. It looks great on you.”

“Alright, then, I’ll keep it.”

He comes over and gives me a warm kiss that curls my toes.

We lie back down on the chairs to enjoy the sand, the surf, and the sun.

As the day grows hotter, Chase moves our chairs under the beach umbrella. The sun is directly overhead and the Florida sun is very hot.

I look around at the picture-perfect sky. There is hardly a cloud in sight. The ocean is a beautiful aqua, and the white surf is rolling in.

“It’s a beautiful day, and it feels good to have nothing to do but relax in the sun.”

“Yes, we should do this more often,” Chase reaches for the cooler. “Time for a cold drink. Here’s a diet coke.”

“Thanks. I brought some light snacks if you’re hungry.”

“What did you bring?”

“Some grapes and strawberries. I also have cheese and crackers. Chips. You know. Finger foods.”

“Sure, break some out. I could eat.” he rubs his flat stomach.

I get the food out of the cooler and the insulated bag.

“This is perfect. It should hold us over until dinner.”

Once we’re done and I’ve put the remains of our snack away, Chase pulls out a frisbee.

“Want to play?”

“Okay, but I don’t know how good I am.”

“No problem. When you’re ready to quit, just let me know.”

Chase is more accurate than I am, so while he’s running around trying to catch the wildly tossed disc, I get to watch his chiseled body glistening in the sun. All of his manly muscles flexing in the sunlight.
