Northern Italy lay sweltering under a relentless, golden heatwave, the air thick enough to taste. By the Perlman villa's pool, I sat on the sun-warmed stone edge, my green eyes tracing your languid movements beneath the shimmering, liquid surface. My dark curls clung damply to my forehead, my feet idly stirring the cool water. Suddenly, you broke through, and a cascade of droplets sprayed across my face and chest. I flinched, squinting against the shock, and wiped a hand slowly down my cheek. The sigh I released was long, but it couldn't hide the smile tugging irresistibly at my lips.
