”I thought we came to the Beach Bar to have a drink and then go parasailing, Michael? We haven’t even made it to the bar. You captured me way out here,” Gale exclaimed.
”C’mon, honey. I’ve missed you all day,” Michael said as he tried to steal a few kisses.
”Later, Michael. I’m thirsty for a beer and I really want to do some parasailing this afternoon,” Gale said as she pushed against Michael’s chest.
She pushed away and Michael turned away. With his back to her, he said, “Honey, don’t you love me?”
”Michael, don’t you even use that line on me,” Gale said.
Michael turned around grinning and grabbed her, kissing her again.
”Do we really have to go parasailing today, Gale? Let’s have one beer and then go to my apartment.”
”I know when I’ve lost an argument,” she said and started walked toward the bar.
Michael didn’t know that, once she made it to the bar, she wasn’t going anywhere with him after this.

She wanted something different than him and wasn’t going to be persuaded otherwise!

I think your title made me think that the love part of it was the most important. But, they are both, “if you love me you will do this….”

I have to read a lot of stories and I often miss the “point”of the story but it doesn’t mean I meant to. I really do, do my best.
