As Ethan slowly blinked his eyes open, the first thing he noticed was the soft warmth of the bed beneath him. Confusion clouded his mind as he realized he was lying on the bed, facing Davis, the events of the previous night flooding back to him in a rush.

Regret washed over him like a tidal wave as he remembered the harsh words exchanged between them, the distance he had created between himself and the man he loved. Davis stirred beside him, his eyes fluttering open as he greeted the new day.

"Ethan," Davis murmured, his voice soft with sleep, "are you okay?"

Ethan's heart clenched at the concern in Davis's voice, his throat tightening with emotion. "I'm sorry, Davis," he whispered, his voice thick with regret. "I shouldn't have pushed you away like that. You mean everything to me."

Davis's eyes softened with understanding as he reached out, gently brushing a strand of hair from Ethan's face. "It's okay, Ethan," he said reassuringly. "We all have our moments. What's important is that we're here, together."

Ethan nodded, a sense of relief flooding through him at Davis's words. In that moment, he knew that no matter what challenges they faced, they would weather them together, their love stronger than any obstacle that stood in their way.

With a smile, Ethan reached out, pulling Davis close in a warm embrace, grateful for the chance to make things right and to cherish the love they shared. As they held each other in the quiet stillness of the morning, Ethan felt a sense of peace settle over him.

"Let's go out," Ethan suggested, breaking the silence.

"Where?" Davis inquired, his curiosity piqued.

"Anywhere, maybe breakfast?" Ethan proposed, planting a gentle kiss on Davis's forehead. "What do you think?"

"Okay ",

"I love you," Ethan replied softly, returning the affection.

"I love you too," Davis affirmed, his heart swelling with love.

After they bathed, they descended the stairs and encountered Mrs. Allen in the kitchen.

"Good morning, Mom," Ethan greeted, placing a kiss on her cheek.

"Good morning, honey," Mrs. Allen replied warmly.

"Good morning, Mrs. Allen," Davis chimed in.

"Call me Mom or Mary instead, you are like a son to me," she said with a smile, embracing Davis warmly.

"We are going out, Mom. We don't have time for been lovey dovey ," Ethan declared, feigning jealousy.

"Don't be jealous Ethan....I was about to make breakfast," Mrs. Allen protested.

"It's okay, Mom. I want to show Davis around...we will have breakfast there ." Ethan explained.

"Oh okay, and your dad just left for work," Mrs. Allen informed them.

"Okay," Ethan acknowledged.

"Take one of the drivers to drive you guys," Mrs. Allen suggested.

"Don't worry, Mom. We have that covered," Ethan assured her.

After bidding Mrs. Allen goodbye, they entered the car and embarked on their journey. As they drove, they engaged in lively conversation, sharing stories and laughter as they made their way to the beach.

Upon arrival, Ethan explained that he and Ashley used to frequent the beach together, evoking fond memories of their adventures.

"Davis, catch me if you can!" Ethan challenged playfully, taking off running along the shoreline.

"I won't do that," davis replied mischievously.

"Then the winner will be in control tonight," Ethan added with a wink, his playful tone laced with anticipation.

It didn't take long for Davis to catch up with Ethan.

As Davis held Ethan close in their embrace, their laughter mingled with the gentle sound of the waves lapping at the shore. Ethan's heart raced with excitement as he looked into Davis's eyes, feeling a surge of love and desire coursing through him.

"You won fair and square," Ethan conceded with a grin, his eyes sparkling with playful mischief.

Davis smiled back, his gaze softening with affection as he brushed a strand of hair from Ethan's face. "Does that mean I get to choose what we do tonight?" he teased, his voice low and husky.

Ethan's breath caught in his throat as he felt a thrill shoot through him at the prospect of Davis taking control. "Yes," he replied, his voice barely above a whisper, a flush creeping into his cheeks.

With a knowing smile, Davis leaned in, capturing Ethan's lips in a passionate kiss that left them both breathless. Time seemed to stand still as they lost themselves in each other, the world fading away until there was only the two of them, bound together by love and desire.

When they finally pulled apart, their chests heaving with exertion, Ethan felt a sense of completeness wash over him. In Davis's arms, he found solace, acceptance, and a love that transcended words.

As they stood on the beach, wrapped in each other's arms, Ethan knew that no matter what the future held, they would face it together, united in their love and devotion. And as the sun began to set on the horizon, casting a warm golden glow over the world around them, Ethan and Davis felt a sense of peace settle over them, knowing that they had found their forever in each other's embrace.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the beach, Ethan and Davis decided to take a leisurely stroll along the shoreline. Hand in hand, they walked side by side, the soft sand cushioning their footsteps as they breathed in the salty sea air.

The rhythmic sound of the waves crashing against the shore created a soothing backdrop to their conversation, punctuated by occasional bursts of laughter and shared anecdotes. They talked about everything and nothing, their words flowing effortlessly as they reveled in the simple joy of being together.

With each step they took, Ethan and Davis felt the weight of the world lift from their shoulders, replaced by a sense of peace and contentment. In each other's presence, they found solace and strength, their love serving as a guiding light through even the darkest of times.

As they walked, Ethan's gaze drifted to the horizon, where the sky was painted in hues of pink and gold. He felt a surge of gratitude welling up within him, grateful for the love that had brought them together and the promise of a future filled with endless possibilities.

Turning to Davis, Ethan smiled, his heart overflowing with love. "Thank you for being here with me," he said softly, his voice barely above a whisper.

Davis returned the smile, his eyes shining with affection. "I wouldn't want to be anywhere else," he replied, his voice filled with warmth.

With a shared glance and a silent understanding, Ethan and Davis continued their stroll along the beach, knowing that as long as they had each other, they had everything they needed to weather life's storms and bask in its joys.
