"Oh my God, it's so cold. There's no way I'm going in!"

"You get used to it." I leaned down and splashed water up at her.

"Professor Hunter!" She ran away from me and back up to our towels. She pulled a small football from her bag. "Let's at least warm up some first!" She tossed it at me.

I caught the ball and threw it back. "I never would have guessed you could throw a football.” I shouldn’t have been that surprised, though. There were a lot of things about her I never would have guessed. We continued to throw it back and forth.

"What? Why?"

"Has nobody ever told you that you're clumsy?" She literally fell into my arms when we first met.

She laughed.

I tossed her the football. "Now try to see if you can run by me." I drew a line in the sand with my toe and stepped in front of it. "That's the goal line."

She ran toward me and did a few side steps, but I quickly caught her and twirled her around. Her laughter was contagious as I spun her in the air. When I put her back down, I kept my arms wrapped around her to keep her from falling over.

"You lost. So now we both have to run in the water as fast as we can."

"Professor Hunter, you're not even wearing a bathing suit. How about a rain check?"

"Yeah, I thought it would be more fun without a bathing suit." I let go of her, unzipped my shorts, and then tossed them into the sand. Her eyes wandered to my gray boxers. "Have you ever been skinny dipping, Penny?"

She looked away from my noticeable bulge. "No."

"Well, I thought you might join me."

"You did, did you?" She glanced around, but no one was nearby.

I pulled her close and kissed her. I wasn’t sure why I wanted to be so reckless with her. Maybe it was because she made me feel young again. She moaned into my mouth, deepening the kiss. God, I could get addicted to this feeling.

It seemed like she hadn’t lived very much in high school. A little danger never hurt anyone. This was as much for me as it was for her. My hands wandered up her back and untied her bathing suit top.

"Professor Hunter!" she screamed and held the front of her bikini in place. "It's the middle of the day."

"I dare you."Do this with me.We were used to breaking the rules together now, weren’t we? I just wanted to be free. And what was more freeing than this?

She looked around again. It was still only us on the beach.

If there was one thing to convince her…I pulled off my boxers. And there I was, in the middle of the beach, completely naked, with an erection. I stared at her, daring her to join me.

She finally mustered the courage, pulled her top off over her head, and stepped out of her bathing suit bottom. She was standing naked on the beach beside me.

I was pretty sure my heart was racing as fast as hers now. It felt like she believed in me. That I wouldn’t let us get caught. That I really could take care of her. I wanted to be that guy. Maybe I could be one day. But right now…all I could offer her was some fun. I grabbed her hand and we ran screaming into the freezing ocean.

We both dove into a wave before it crashed down on us.

“I can’t believe we're doing this," she said as we swam out a little farther. She was shaking. But I wasn't sure if it was because of the cold water or the thrill of what we were doing. This was probably the craziest thing she’d ever done. Besides sleeping with her professor. And even though I had done a lot of crazy things in my life, I’d never felt quite like this before. She was exhilarating.

I hugged her close. Despite how cold it was, I was still hard. She wrapped her legs around my waist.

"Shit it's cold!" she said. Her teeth were chattering. "How do you always get me to do such crazy things?"

I smiled. "Because you trust me."And I’m starting to trust you too.

"Well I don't know why. You've convinced me to do so many things that could get us in trouble."

"There's actually something else that I've always wanted to do." I placed my hand on her cheek. She’d experienced a lot of firsts today. I wanted to share one together.
