The Siren's Gaslight

There was no getting away from it, the best thing in their out of the way little town, was their long golden sandy beach. And yet, with its miles and miles of golden sand, and more golden sand spreading in every direction, it was actually a kind of a boring place to visit regularly. But what the sandy beach itself lacked most of all, was any color, except that, is for the color of the golden sand itself. 'It was the spring break holidays when the usual hoards of out of townies arrived. They were easily identified seeing as they were the only people who were pale skinned, like walking snow people. While some of them were super rich, then you'd the working class people who were struggling to get by in their lives. And yet others, they were so poor they'd hitched a lift just to get to the beach. However, they all had one thing in common, few if any of them use sun block cream. So by the end of each day, lots of walking red lobster-like creatures would be seen packing up, before heading back home to cool down again. It's while the beach thronged with people, that's when suddenly everyone around one girl stopped what they were doing for a moment. She'd been almost unnoticed walking across the hot sand and long toweling beach robe. A beach bag packed with a few essentials was slung over one shoulder, while under her other arm a beach towel was firmly held there. It's when she'd taken off her robe that's when she'd grabbed the attention of others nearby on the beach. Blessed with dark skin she was a natural stunner, not just good looking, she was outstandingly beautiful. It was as if a young magazine model had graced them all, with her presence on the warm sandy beach that mid-morning. Once she'd packed her robe into her beach bag and set it onto the sand, that's when she'd spread her beach towel over her chosen spot. Now she was desperate to dip her toes into the gentle breakers running up the shoreline before they retreated slowly back out to sea. Only to do it all over again, and again! The crispy cool saltwater felt marvelous, with it refreshing her previously warm and slightly sweaty toes and feet. The other people on the beach had long since gone back to doing their own things. So no one really cared, no one was watching her when she'd dared to knee down in the edge of the water. Being careful not to get her figure-hugging bikini wet, the breakers rolled over her legs several times before she rose once more. Like a goddess rising from the sea, she skipped and scampered back over the hot sands to her spot, and quickly stood off the too warm sands, onto her beach towel.
