"I have the rest of our lives to find out about you," he observed, "and I think I know as much as I need to for now. I'd rather use my mouth for something less liable to end in sorrow." Looking down at her with undisguised appreciation, he offered her a hand up. Whatever else he might feel for her (and for the time being, he was avoiding addressing that issue), there was no denying that she was beautiful, or that looking at her naked and wet made it much easier to drive serious concerns out of his mind than any amount of talking would.
