Chapter 36

She left the music store a couple of hours later, her anger beginning to simmer on high as she continued to chase the happenings of the morning in her mind. She wasn't ready to go back and face him, her te'sorthene, her ever loving blood drinking, stubborn as hell mate. She knew Mic wanted to go bowling, knew Jon would enjoy it, but she didn't want to face Richie yet.

Turning to the left out of the parking lot she headed towards Da Bar. No time like the present to wash away her worries. As she pulled in she breathed a sigh of relief to see it wasn't too crowded today. Slipping from the car she walked in and leaned against the bar. "HEY MICK!!"

Mick glanced up and grinned. One of his regulars and she looked pissed. "DOUBLE SHOT night Gia?"

"Damn straight and keep 'em coming."

Jon stood and shook his head. Reaching for Mic's hand he pulled her up and started towards the bedroom. "Come on baby, we have things to do."

Mic nodded "Yeah we do, you sure you want to come to a dingey old bookstore with me" she laughed as she followed him into the bedroom.

"Baby anywhere you go has gotta be fun. Besides I ain't staying here with Mr thwarted vamp."

Mic laughed "Hell yeah, he's going to stew all day I think, I'm kinda glad our connection is a little more stable" she pulled out some clothes.
"Anything I need to take? for after the book shop? its such a nice day out there" she said.

"How about a blanket, sunscreen and a bathing suit baby? I feel the need for sun." Jon winked as he watched her get ready. "We'll pick up soem take out for lunch."

"Sounds like a plan stud" she said as she threw the essentials in a bag and grabbed her bathing suit fastening it on under her clothes.
"No peaking" she teased as she tied the top half around her neck.

He twisted and watched unabashedly as she dressed. "Ya got something different I haven’t already seen?"

Mic snorted "No I guess not, just not used to be so naked around a man" she admitted.

"You slept naked in a bed, I made love to your naked body, I’m a man, you were pretty used to that baby." He grinned and winked as she walked towards him. "Let’s go get your business done.

Her cheeks deep crimsoned "Yeah well, as I said, I'm not used to it, before you honey, always been a bit of a loner" she said as smiled heading out the door.

He followed behind her, his gaze centered on the small of her back. There was just something about the sway of her hips he couldn't resist. Today was gonna be a good day. Those hips and a bathing suit promised fun.

Mic and Jon headed to the bookstore, after Mic convinced him to drive in San Diego which he obliged, after nearly two minor accidents and laughs they made it.
After talking with Giselle and introducing Jon, Mic found what she needed, some ancient texts from the Romany from a long time ago she needed to translate and study. She stored them safely in the trunk before climbing and Jon headed for beach. The sun was out, and the day promised to be a good one, she stole a glance sideways of him driving and softly singing along to the Beatle’s track that was playing while his long sandy hair blew in the breeze.

Pulling into a free parking space he switched off the car adn grinned. "Lets go sun worship baby."

"Sounds good to me" Slipping on her sunglasses and swinging her bag over her shoulder she climbed out of the car, Jon slung his arm around her waist low as they trundled down the beach away from the crowds. Finding a spot away from everyone they plopped down in the sand and Jon rummaged through the bag of food that they'd picked up on the way. "What ya got in there gorgeous?" she asked.

Jon chuckled, "Oh sandwiches, beer, chips, standard beach food baby." He flopped back and spread his arms out a huge sigh escaping him. "Now this is the life."

She stole a chip from the bag and ate it thoughtfully watching him with a grin spreading across her face. She reached out and and grabbed a little handful of sand and in one quick motion shoved in down his board shorts.

"HEY!" Jon bolted up adn growled, "That's not an area for sand paper products." Standing up he swiftly scooped her into his arms and started towards the water. "Someone needs to learn what happens when they are naughty."

She shrieked with laughter as he carried her out towards the water. "Noooo, its good for the skin, a nice scrub didn’t ya know" she tried to get out in between fits of laughter.

"And with all good scrubs you need a good rinse." He waded in to his waist and started to count. "One...... Two.... Three!" On the final three he swung her out and let go.

She screamed as she hit the salty water, thankfully it wasn't as cold as she anticipated. Surfacing quickly she squealed. "You so die for that Jonny Boy, so die" she said flicking her hair and wading towards him as she pounced on his back wrapping her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist trying desperately to tip him. "I wish you were as wet as I am right now" she teased.

The skies opened up suddenly as a downpour coated them both in rain water. Jon glanced at her scowling as he began to shake his hair, the water whipping from its dripping ends. "Let's discuss the usage of the word WISH around me baby."

He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply before taking her arms in hsi hands. Pushing carefully he began to dunk her, a soft warming energy flowing from his hands to her. "Wonder if I can electrocute someone this way?"

Mic shuddered as the electric jolts tingled all the way down her body to her spine, sending her hairs standing on end. She whimpered as the feeling was both pleasurable and concerning. "Ok ok, you win, I wont use it, well try too" a mischievous grin broke out on her face.

His hands slid from her arms to her waist as one hand dipped lower and slid along her thighs before one finger slid under the bathing suit bottom. "I always win Baby."

Mic whimpered as his finger found its way through the salty water and into her.
"Its because you play dirty" she gasped holding onto his waist. Her own hands slid down the front of his board shorts as she cupped him gently.

He pulled her tighter and waded further out, his fingers never leaving the moist center they were teasing. As the water grew cooler in the deeper water his fingers slid home and began to pump slowly, as he sent pleasure after pleasure through his finger tips.

As the cooler water washed around her, her arms wound around his neck holding her body upright, the heat and pleasure radiating off his fingers sending her senses into frenzy. "Jonnnn" she cried as her nails dug into his back, concentrating she lifted her head to meet his lips in a sizzling kiss, sending her own shocks onto his soft lips.

They were unaware of a set of probing eyes watching them from the shore, curious about the blinding light that the couple canoodling in the sea were causing. Squinting closer Glen was sure that his eyes had fallen on a PSI Upier and his te'sorthene. Shielding his eyes further his horror revealed to him the identity of that mate, Mic Davies, one of his own kinds. He shook his head and noted how heated and close they were, he immediately knew he had to report back to the elders as soon as possible, but before he did that, he’d just watch them for awhile, after all where ONE was another was sure to be. It would secure his place in the clan if he could help rid the world of such evil.
