"Where do you want it to be?" a lean blonde haired girl wearing a sundress asked the slightly petite brown haired woman sitting across the small 2 top restaurant table from her.
"The reception?" the woman replied back.
"No. The actual ceremony. Come on, the date is getting nearer and we still have nothing set in stone. Where is your ideal place?" the girl took her soon-to-be-wife's slender manicured hands in her own and looked right into her shiny brown eyes. "Your ideal place to say our 'I do's'."
"My ideal, perfect place..." the woman stared off into the distant remembering her youth from a few years back.
"Come on!" a young teen of about 18 was yelling back at a teenage girl wearing a yellow two piece bathing suit. She was floating atop the ocean gently letting the waves push her back and forth. "You know you could always get in; instead of staring at the water with that dumb look on your face."
"I would... if you know... Icouldswim," the teen girl yelled back to the green-eyed girl in a hurried fashion, smashing the last part of her sentence together.
The long, blond-haired girl started to frantically swim to shore.
"Um.. what..." she was trying to catch her breath after the fast swim, "What.. what do yo-yo-you mean? If... if you could what?"
The brown-haired girl lowered her dark eyes shyly and stared at her toes playing with the sand below her. "If.. If I could swim," she said barely above a whisper.
"You mean to tell me. You begged, almost cried for us to spend our last summer, before I go to college, in California and you don't know how to swim?" she scoffed, a slight smile was appearing on her face.
"I just, I thought, I don't know, it'd be fun. I've always wanted to come here, and when you offered a vacation just the two of us, I thought it would be perfect."
The slightly older teen took her girl's hands in her own and started to run towards the ocean. "You are learning to swim today! We aren't getting out of the water until you do!"
As soon as the younger teen realized what she was doing she started to try to run in the other direction. "No! Are you crazy? I'm going to drown! NO! Shouldn't we start with like, baby steps? You know.. in the bathtub?"
The older girl stopped running and faced her girlfriend who was now red in the face. She put her arms around her waist and whispered, "Now, please enlighten me, when have we ever taken 'baby steps?' Better yet, when have I let you take 'baby steps?'" A slow grin started to form when she saw that the younger girl lowered her eyes. "I. Am. Teaching. You. How. To. Swim. Right here. Right now. End of discussion."
"But-" the tan-skinned teen started to protest by taking her girls' arms off of her.
The emerald-eyed teen lowered her face and caught her lips. "Didn't I say end of discussion?" She carried her bridal-style all the way in the water; having once reached it she gently lowered the girl while she proclaimed the water was too cold.
"Please! Please, don't let me go," she frantically started to hang on to her girlfriend, wrapping her legs around her torso and carrying her arms across her neck.
"Now, why would I ever let you go?" She nuzzled her face in her neck, her lips were right on her earlobe. "I'll never let you go, promise."
"Promise?"
She stared into her eyes, she could see her reflection in them. "Cross my heart and hope to die. You are mine." And with that she kissed her very gently before saying, "Now we really need to address your problem. Not knowing how to swim and you're almost 18." She tilted her head back and laughed.
"Hello! Are you there?"
She snapped her head back to reality and focused on the person sitting across from her, waving her slender hand back and forth in front of her face. She blushed slightly and smiled.
"Sorry. I was just remembering something."
"So? Do you have the place?" She raised her fiancée's hand and kissed it.
The young woman looked back at the blonde and grinned, "Yes. The beach. In California. Right on the beach."
