Chapter 52: The Best Adventure yet.
When Lina stepped through the portal, she couldn't believe what she saw on the other side.
They were on a beatiful island. There were palm trees, and sand everywhere (besides a small walkway) and best of all, there was a giantic almost castle like resort. She also didn't see any people ANYWHERE!
She turned to Xellos, astonished. He smiled at her, and let go of her hand.
He came to stand next to her, and put a hand on her shoulder.
"This, My queen, is your kingdom. You rule it from the soft sandy beaches all the way into the heart of the rainforest." he said with a bow.
"YOU DORK!" she said, hitting him on the head.
She smiled at him, and when he was done complaining about how his head hurt "so bad" she gave him a hug.
"Thank you Xellos, this is beatiful." she said.
Then she pulled away, and grabbed her suitcase.
"We should probably drop off our luagge before we do any adventuring." said Lina.
Xellos looked at her. Adventuring?
"JUST COME ON YOU DAMN FRUITCAKE!"
She grabbed his arm and pulled him along, he barely had time to grab his suitcase.
...
Meanwhile, back in Seyruun, Amelia's baby was due in a few days. They had found out it was a boy. (How you ask? MAGIC!)
Zelgadis never let Amelia leave his sight, always making sure that she comfortable.
Gourry and Sylphiel had left for Sairaag, nobody really knew what was going to happen with those two. They were both pretty damn clueless, so they probably weren't going to go very far.
Also, Prince Phill had decided not to go on any missons untill after the child was born.
...
Amelia awoke to her husband brushing a few strands of hair away from her face.
"Good Morning My Dear." said Zelgadis. "How are you feeling?"
She reached up to touch his cheek.
"I'm doing fine." said Amelia.
She sat up and looked at Zelgadis.
"What about you? Did you get any sleep last night?" asked Amelia.
"N-No, but that's ok. I just get so worried about you." he said with a sigh.
Amelia rubbed his arm.
"You can't keep doing this to yourself Mister Zelgadis."
Zelgadis sighed.
"Would you stop calling me 'Mister Zelgadis' already? Haven't I asked you to just call me Zelgadis?"
"Oh..right." said Amelia. "Wait a minute! Your trying to change to subject!"
He laughed at her and patted her on the head.
"Your so funny." he said.
...
Back on the Island, Lina had changed into a blue bikini and had gone down to the beach, pulling her husband along with her.
He was wearing black swim trunks, and a t-shirt, even though Lina told him he didn't need it.
"Come on Xellos! There's nobody here you don't have to worry about that!" said Lina.
"I'm only trying to be a proper gentleman." said Xellos, grabbing hold of Lina's hand.
They held hands all the way down to the beach.
Then Xellos took of his shirt and set it on a lounge chair.
"I don't understand why you have to be a gentleman when nobodys even around.." said Lina.
"It's just good manners." he said, scooping her up in his arms.
Lina was about to struggle her way out of his arms, but then she realized there was no point in that. There was no reason she had to pretend she didn't love being this close to him. Everyone already knew, that she loved him.
Xellos faced the ocean, he walked alittle closer so that the water was touching his feet, and every once in a while coming up and splashing Lina.
She snuggled into his chest.
"Xellos..I'm so happy I met you." she said.
He smiled down at her.
"As am I."
She got down from his arms and pulled him by his hand deeper into the water.
"Are you coming?" she said.
They stayed at the beach for hours splashing each other and slipping over the soft sand at the bottom of the water. Together.
