I am walking along a deserted beach. The high, intense sun makes the bleached sand burn the soles of my feet, so I occasionally wade into the cool, blue ocean to ease the pain. The sun is unyielding as it beats down upon me. The sands reach ahead of me as far as the eye can see - the ocean laps to my left and to my right rise rocky bluffs. The sun casts weird shadows on their crenellated surfaces, causing illusions of depth and textures.
The sun is making me dizzy, so I resolve to find some shelter from its punishing gaze. I figure that my best chance is to find some shade in the rocks, as there is no apparent path up the bluffs to the land above. I begin to feel as if I am destined to bake on this beach. But my luck changes for the better. Just to my right I spy a dark entrance in the foot of the rocks. The sanctuary of shade is itself compelling but that is not all that captures my attention. Stood in this opening is you.
You are wearing a long, white beach shirt. The intense rays of the sun make its material slightly transparent - I can make out the outline of your swimsuit beneath. As I approach I feel a tingle in my body, a sensation that surges as we make eye contact. I smile and ask if I can share your shelter. You see the beads of sweat speckling my brow and you encourage me to join you.
We are now stood side by side and I feel very conscious of the proximity of your beautiful body. Each time you look at me I feel my heart leaping a little. When I look at you, you avert your gaze, as if trying to hide something. I become aware that my breathing has become more deeper and I am powerless to stop my eyes from roaming your body. We indulge in a small talk but however hard I try I cannot distract myself from my rising state of arousal. I can't be sure if you feel the same about me ... maybe ... maybe not.
