The traditional seaside resort of Sharpington-by-Sea with its Victorian Pier, seafront hotels, crazy golf, The Palladium ballroom, well maintained gardens, promenade, theatre and illuminations, has all the usual things to have a great time by the seaside, as well as amusement arcades and of course the Sharpington Fun Park, but there was also a very acceptable sandy beach, and it was on that beach on the Summer Bank Holiday when a group of friends from Purplemere were enjoying the warm weather, and among them were brothers Paul and Simon Maloney and Simon’s girlfriend Jules Madox.
But despite
the blue skies there was a black cloud hanging over the day because Paul knew
that his brother was going to dump Jules and he was not happy with what Simon
was going to do, because he was doing it so he could make a play for someone
else.
About an
hour after seeing Simon and Jules in a heated exchange by the seawall, Paul was
walking along the beach towards the pier when he saw Jules behind one of the
pillars and he could tell by the movement of her shoulders that she was crying,
so he closed the distance between them.
“Are you ok
Jules?” he asked when he reached her and as she turned to face him he could
discern that her eyes bore the evidence of crying, and then before he knew what
was happening she had buried her tearstained face in his chest and began to cry
anew.
“I’m sorry”
he said
They stood
in the shade beneath the pier in that embrace for ten minutes as she cried,
until the pattern of her breathing changed and he could feel feather light
kisses from her soft lips on his naked chest, before her lips journeyed upwards
until they reached his and she kissed him, a deeply passionate and electric
kiss, but he curtailed it.
“We
shouldn’t be doing this” he said
“But it’s
what I want” she retorted and tried again to connect her lips to his.
“But you
were crying for Simon ten minutes ago” he pointed out
“No, no,
you mustn’t think that” she said with alarm
“I wasn’t
crying because we broke up, I was glad, I was distraught because I didn’t think
I would see you again”
