Chapter 7
The island was small, miles away from the nearest coast. It was completely isolated and completely romantic. My grandparents came here, my parents came here, now I'm here, and hopefully my children will come here. Welcome to Esme Island. The plane itself was small and I slept on Jacob's shoulder the whole time. I didn't realize that he was asleep too until we landed hard against the calm waters and he jumped in his seat. The pilot and his co-pilot carried our bags to the house and then left. If we needed anything we were to call the main island, or take the speed boat.
"After you my love." Jacob said while holding out his hand for me to walk into the honeymoon home. I turned to him. "Aren't you going to carry me? Like in the movies?" He dropped his arm and smiled at me. "Just kidding, I don't find it romantic so please don't." He sighed with a laugh and followed me in.
The room automatically lit up as soon as we stepped in, no switches anywhere around the house. The kitchen was all white and the living room was all golden. I had the feeling every room had a signature color. I could smell the scent of sweet vanilla as I walked into the vacation home even farther. I peeked in every room and finally found the master bedroom, all the way up stairs in the west wing. It was a violet and brown colored room; couches, chairs, desks, the canopy bed, all of it matched those two colors. It had a long balcony that swept around the side of the house and led out wide enough that there was a hammock/bed swing on it too.
Jacob placed our suitcases on the cushioned bed and took off his jacket. "Want to go for a swim?" I nodded and grabbed my duffle bag.
The bathroom was another world. The walls were painted all violet; freshly painted. White tile floor, matching sink and toilet, and a sauna bathtub with a pull off shower head. I walked over to the mirror and examined myself. My hair was still immaculately curled nice and my make up was as if I had just put it on. Probably because Rosalie sprayed my face with Makeup Stay for almost an hour. I unzipped my dress and let it fall to the floor, opening my duffle bag I realized Alice packed more then one swimsuit. I picked out a lime green one that tied around the neck and back. It was just plain at the top and the bottoms said Hurley on the butt. I grabbed a white towel in the bag and went outside.
When I walked down to the beach I saw Jacob walking out into the ocean. He disappeared as I began to walk towards the shore line. The water was extremely warm, like a summer night. My thoughts were still collecting when Jacob popped back up flipping his hair every which way, "You coming?" he turned toward me. "Cause I can swim alone." He floated a way and I took a step toward him.
He met me half way his warm hands resting on my back making it even hotter then it already was. He pulled me close to him and kissed my neck. I felt the shivers go down my back as I clamped my hands delicately on his face. His muscles clenched and he pulled me deeper into the water; we were standing waist deep now. I ran my hands down his arms, back up, and then down his chest. He watched me the whole time. His face smooth and serious, his eyes big and welcoming. His jaw clenched and I ran my hands back up to his face. My fingers trailed through his hair and I pushed his lips to mine. It was like every other kiss but with more passion more realism like we could do whatever we wanted now and everything would fall into place. My fingertips danced from his hair to his pecks and I gracefully rested them there.
"I'm glad I get to look down at my hand and see this ring on my finger, and realize that I am the luckiest girl in the world and I get to spend the rest of my life with you."
He smiled an embracing smile at me, "And I'm glad I get to look down and see this girl that is so beautiful and so happy, and is willing to let me know that I am the luckiest guy in the world and I get to spend the rest of my life with her.. Forever."
His warm hand brushed my hair out of my face and kissed me again. I dropped my hands to waist and let him kiss my jaw line. I could feel his hands caress my shoulders, arms and back. My stomach and heart clenched as the nervous feeling swept over me and then he kissed my lips softly again sending the feeling away. We backed up and he laid me down on the shore, the warm waves crashing against the back of our bodies, sending his body heat and the waves temperature against my skin with every moment or breathe we made. He kissed me again and I cupped his face, letting his hands stroke my back. He stopped in the middle and pulled away from my kiss. I felt his right hand resting over the knot in my swimsuit top holding it together, "Ready.." he asked. I nodded and kissed his cheek sending him the excitement and fulfillment I had floating in me from my body to his.
