"True." Now wasn't the moment to reflect on the hard cots of prison or army barracks. He kept himself in the present by the sounds of the falls and her breathing, the feel of her body against his and the water on his feet. He nuzzled into her hair, cool on his closed eyes, tightened his hand gently on her opposite shoulder, felt her breasts rising and falling under his arm.
At last, the pain of his other arm, folded under him on the rock, was enough to break the moment. He kissed her cheek and murmured, "I'm going in." And he rolled carefully off, slipping into the pool with hardly a splash. The water felt wonderful after their exertion. He kept his head above so he could crane over and kiss her again.
