"Have a great time!" Maddy waved as the three of them pulled out

into the alley, off on their quest for fun and fortune. Once they were

safely gone, Kenny pulled her into his arms and another spellbinding kiss

as they stood on the back porch. A warm, gentle breeze had begun to

blow, dancing through her hair and complementing the goose bumps that

had already formed on her skin in response to his touch.

"God, I've missed you," he admitted in a soft, sexy voice.

"I've missed you, too," she replied, reaching up on her toes to pull

him even closer. She was wearing a strapless, sea foam green sundress,

with a matching bolero jacket and a short, flared skirt, with off-white

ankle strap sandals that had just a slight, two-inch heel. He had on a pair

of nice jeans with a navy tee shirt. Maddy could feel the hardness of his

chest muscles as she placed her palms against him. For a while, they just

stood there holding each other.

"Hey, I have a surprise for you," he finally announced. In the rapture

of her embrace, he'd almost forgotten about it.

"What?" she asked curiously, breaking away to look into his sparkling

eyes.

"Oh, now if I told you sweetheart, that would kind of ruin it,

dont'cha think?"

He really loved teasing her and watching the sparks light up her face.

Predictably, she tried to tickle it out of him before he literally swept her

off of her feet and into his car.
