“That was… amazing. That feeling.” I released my legs and arms and floated on my back in the water in complete bliss.

“That was called an orgasm.”

“I want to do that again.”

He laughed. “It is a pretty glorious feeling.”

“It’s always like that?”

“If you do it right.”

“Will you show me?”

He studied me for a minute and I was scared I had overstepped. I knew that whatever this was between us was only temporary.

“I’m not a good person.”

“I don’t care. I want that again. I’m not looking for a husband right now. They had me locked up for years. I want to explore. I want to live.” I swam back over to him. “So help me live, Gage. Let us take what we want from one another with no strings.” I grabbed his cock in my hand. “Teach me how to please you.” I ran my hand back and forth, slowly pumping it, feeling it grow harder in my hand. “Let me feel you inside me.” I pressed the tip of his cock to my pussy and wanted so badly to let it take him in.

He leaned forward and then pushed away at the last second. “I can’t.” He moaned and then swam back towards the waterfall.

I stayed there, watching after him in complete shock. My body was still buzzing. It was clear that he was fighting some internal battles. I had been right before. He wanted to fuck me, but there was something stopping him.

After he dipped under the waterfall, I moved. It was probably getting darker out and I needed to be ready for the purple mangor, I tried to convince myself.

Goddess, I hope it existed.

By the time I got to the plunge pool, Gage was out of the water and putting his pants back on. I stayed in the water one more second, admiring his beautiful chiseled body. It was perfection.

I eventually climbed out and got dressed, sitting on the edge of the bank. Gage had found a spot in the grass behind me and had laid down with his eyes closed.

I knew he wasn’t asleep, but I gave him his space… for now.

I don’t know how much time had passed. I had counted seven thousand and sixty-nine ripples in the water when I heard the wind again. It was like nature was singing me a song.

“Gage.” I tapped his foot.

He sat up, “Wha-”

“I think it’s time.”

The tree near the edge of the water started swaying gently back and forth. Bright pink and white blossoms opened, filling the entire tree in its beauty.

“Wow.” I said in amazement.

It was like the tree was opening its doors to the night, welcoming it in. As if unfurling its branches, a flurry of birds flew from the depths inside the tree, taking to the air in a beautiful dance, moving with the wind.

The wind, as if it was alive and reeling with excitement, continued to blow and sway. I grabbed my hair, holding it out of my face so I could continue to watch the show.

Suddenly, the wind stop and the birds fell to the water with such precision like someone had snapped their fingers.

They quietly swam as if nothing had happened.

“What was that?” I turned to Gage.

He shook his head. “I have no idea. I’ve never seen anything like that before.”

A moment later, a bird the size of a small elephant flew out of the tree and walked over to me.
