Anyway I hope you like this next little chapter.
Today was the day Emily thought. She and Matt had been married two weeks now and were about to go on their honey moon. She was so excited, it was going to be a time for new things but she was nervous. She also had to go on a plane for the first time, something totally new for her.
But Matt would be right there beside her, so everything was going to be ok. They were headed off to Australia, figuring it was far enough away from the ARC, and they were going Queensland, where it was nice and warm.
It was going to be so much fun and she was enjoying daydreaming about it so what would it be like when she actually got there. She did not get much further in her thoughts because Matt came in and started to tickle her.
It very quickly snapped her back to reality and she in turn began to attempt to tickle Matt back, only to remember that he was not ticklish. 'It's time to go, are you ready?' Matt asked once he had finished tickling her. They were due to be at the airport soon and they did not want to miss their flight, the sooner they got away from the ARC the better.
'Yes Matt, I am ready to go! I can't believe this is finally happening.' She exclaimed as Matt started to walk out the room towards the front door with her bag.
…
When Matt and Emily finally got through all the security checks in customs and made it to their boarding gate they could finally relax and wait for their flight in peace. They were talking, but not one of those conversations that you can look back on in two hours' time and remember. It was just the small talk to pass the time because neither of them wanted to voice about how nervous they were about spending close to the next twenty hours on a plane.
So when they were called up to board the plane, the eagerly walked forward and acted as if nothing was bothering them at all. But in actual fact they were both feeling the same as each other.
…
Sometime later they were sitting on the plane, neither of them enjoying themselves. They were just over half way on their journey. Emily had been asleep on Matt's neck peacefully until about 45 minutes ago, when that frustrating little baby had started crying. Emily had almost immediately woken from her pleasant sleep to find that she had that not so peaceful 'crick' in her neck, which she was still rubbing as it was causing her some discomfort.
But that baby had not stopped crying since then and did not appear as if it were going to stop anytime soon, and Matt and Emily were not the only ones who were exasperated by the baby who would not stop crying. Hopefully it would end soon.
…
Many hours later, or so if felt, Matt and Emily landed at the Brisbane airport. The baby on the plane had continued crying for another two hours and it felt like even longer. But they were finally in Australia and it was going to be great. They finally one their honeymoon and it was going to be great fun.
They were going to be spending a few weeks on the Sunshine Coast, going to the Great Barrier Reef, Swimming in the glistening blue ocean, just having fun away from the stress of the ARC and its duties. It was going to be just the two of them so how could everything not be perfect?
Later that night they checked into the resort, the holiday was finally underway, safe from the anomalies at last.
…
Matt and Emily were both up incredibly early due to jetlag so they decided to go for an early morning swim. When they got outside they noticed that it was a lot hotter than they were used too and it was still only the early morning. It was definitely something that they were not used too and it was only going to get hotter!
The water at the beach was unlike anything that they had ever seen before, even when they went to the beach in London. The water glistened in morning sun so much that you could see your reflection in the beautiful blue water.
They walked along the water's edge for a while before Matt decided he was going to drag Emily into the water. She resisted for a while but then followed in his footsteps and they ran into the water, small waves splashing around the bottom on their legs, the taste of a lot of salt in their mouths. But they were laughing and having a good time, like they were the only two people in the world, like they were the only two people on the beach (which they were).
They splashed around in the water for a while then retreated up onto the sand. The sand was soft and stuck to the bottom of their legs which had just been in water, giving their legs a very grainy look.
They were marvelled by how hot it had gotten and how fast it had happened so the moved into the shade of a tree where they sat for a while. Then Matt decided to speak. 'I love you Emily! I hope that you always remember that.'
He looked into Emily's eyes and all he could see was love. She then replied to him but did not use words, but, Matt though it was a much more desirable way.
Well I hope you like that chapter. And for just in case you have not already noticed from this story I love the beach! I also live in Australia which is why I brought them here…it's also to a beach I have been too, it's called Rainbow Bay if it helps?!
But I hope you enjoy it. How long do you want the honey moon to go for and how much detail do you want? Please let me know.
And as always: may your gateways remain ever open…musicgirl97 =)
