The beach was quite cold and blustery but with a bright sun.
We had been walking for about an hour along the edge of the shore, on the grassy part where the sand meets the land; we walk a little further to a small grassy area surrounded by dunes. Shielded from the wind by the dunes it is soon quite warm and as you are starting to get a little hungry, we sit close together and eat the lunch I had carried with me. We sat talking and looking out over the sea, watching the waves hit rocks, firing up white clouds of spray.
We sat with my arm around your shoulders, you snuggled closely. Your hands were icy cold; you unzipped the front of my jacket and slid your hand inside. I leant back against the edge of the dune, watching the sky, holding you close. I mentioned that my legs were quite tired from walking, wanting to know here it hurt; you started to rub my legs to ease away the aching. You continued to stroke, quite firmly, massaging, easing the pain away.
