Come on, my darling, let me see some more of
that gumption of yoursHold up your head, my pet, it's almost
over
"Damn you for a quitter, Scarlett O'Hara! I should have let Sherman
get you in AtlantaYou weren't worth saving The words registered
slowly in her fading consciousness, and produced only a feeble stirring
of anger
Her eyes opened and her head lifted to meet the dimly sensed
challenge
"Take a deep breath," Rhett commanded
He put his big hand over her nose and mouth and dove under the
water
with her feebly struggling body held closeThey surfaced outside the
hull, near a line of tall, cresting combers"Almost there, my love,"
Rhett gaspedHe bent one arm around Scarlett's neck and held her
heavy head in his hand while he swam expertly through a breaking
wave
and used its power to carry them into chanel handbags on sale the shallowsA thin rain was
falling, blown almost horizontal by the gusting windRhett cradled
Scarlett's limp form to his chest and huddled over it, kneeling in the
white frothing edge of the water
A comber rose far behind him and raced toward the beachIt began
to
curl over on itself, then the foam-streaked gray water crashed, surged
toward land, and the rolling, roiling forces in it struck Rhett's back
and roared across his sheltering bodyWhen the wave had passed
over
and spent itself, he rose unsteadily to his feet and stumbled forward
onto the beach, clasping Scarlett to himHis bare feet and legs were
cut in a hundred places by the fragments of shell that the breaker had
thrown against him, but he was uncaring
He ran clumsily through the deep clinging sand to an opening in the
line of immense sand dunes balenciaga magenta pre owned and climbed a short way into a bowl-like
area sheltered from the windsThere he gently placed Scarlett's body
on the soft sandHis voice broke as he called Scarlett's name over
and over again while he tried to bring life into her chilled whiteness
by rubbing every part of her with his two handsHer snarled,
glistening black hair was spilled around her head and shoulders and
her
black eyebrows and lashes were shocking streaks across her colorless
wet faceRhett slapped her cheeks softly and urgently with the backs
of his fingersWhen her eyes opened their color looked as strong as
emeraldsRhett shouted in primitive triumphScarlett's fingers half
closed around the shifting solidity of the rain-hardened sandAnd she began to cry in gasping sobsRhett put one arm
under her shoulders and lifted her into the tiffany round tag necklace protection of his bent
crouching bodyWith his free hand he touched her hair, her cheeks,
mouth, chinI thought I'd lost youI thought
I'd killed you
I thought- Oh, Scarlett, you're aliveDon't cry, my dearest, it's all
overEverything-" He kissed her
forehead, her throat, her cheeksScarlett's pale skin warmed with
color, and she turned her head to meet his kissed with her ownAnd
there was no cold, no rain, no weakness-only the burning of Rhett's
lips on her lips, on her body, the heat of his handsAnd the power she
felt under her fingers when she gripped his shouldersAnd the
pounding
of her heart in her throat against his lips, the strong beat of his shirt
beneath her palms when she tangled her fingers in the thick curling
hair on his chestYes! I did remember it, it wasn't a dreamYes,
this is the dark swirling that dior monogram messenger bag draws me in and closes out the world and
makes me alive, so alive, and free and spinning up to the heart of the
sun"Yes!" she shouted again and again, meeting Rhett's passion
with
her own, her demands the same as hisUntil in the swirling, spiraling
rapture there were no longer words or thoughts, only a union beyond
mind, beyond time, beyond the worldloves me! What a fool I was to
doubt what I knew
Scarlett's swollen lips curved in a lazy surfeited smile, and she
slowly opened her eyesRhett was sitting beside herHis arms were
wrapped across hisknees, his face hidden in the hollow they made
Scarlett stretched luxuriantlyFor the first time she felt the
rasping sand against her skin, noticed her surroundingsWhy, it's
pouring down rainWe'll catch our deathWe'll have to find some
shelter before we make love tiffany heart tag toggle necklace agai
