I smiled and kissed her.

“It’s a shame we don’t have time to christen this room properly,” I said, grinning like a naughty schoolboy.

She smiled, “That’s okay, sailor. You make it back to me tomorrow and we’ll christen every inch of this room. Deal?”

“Deal!” I said.

That thought would be just the incentive I needed to make it through the night…
