Resisting Her English Doc

“Yes, we will. And in the meantime...” She reached into the beach bag, taking out a small packet.
He tore at the paper, and something bright fell out onto the sand. A golden disk. Rick picked it up and flipped it over in his hand. Then he broke into a wide grin.
“Is this what I think it is?”
She nodded. “I think Ellie noticed that all of your special wishes were in my jar and all mine were in yours the other morning.”
Rick chuckled. Neither of them had had a great deal of sleep that night. “This is just one, though.”
“But it’s gold. It lasts forever, so we can pass it back and forth between us as many times as we like.”
Rick handed her the gold piece. “How do you feel about a swim?” He wanted to hold her, floating together in the warm water while the sun went down.
“Perfect.” She put the wish back into his hand. “And then my wish is to go home together.”
“Wish granted.”
He handed the gold piece back to Fleur. There was no need to tell her what his next wish would be.
“I love you, Rick. Wish granted. Always and forever.”
