He jumps in the water and swims over to me. We embrace for a short while
and just float side by side for countless hours just enjoying each other's
company. I float on my back and he grabs my hands and holds them. "Just
relax." I let all of my worries leave me and, for the first time in two
years, I am finally at peace.
He moves me so my eyes are looking into his. He towers over me like a
majestic mountain. I rise from my floating position and stand in the chest-
high water. He kisses me and wraps his arms around me. "I love you."
I kiss him back and rest my cheek on his shoulder. I whisper into his ear,
"I love you too." I then close my eyes and start to fall into a dreamlike
state.
I feel myself being lifted in the air and I open my eyes and see that he's
carrying me to the beach. He carries me as if I was a precious child. He
then gently sets me down on the soft sand. I open my eyes and look past
him into the night sky. The sky illuminates his outlines so he looks
heavenly.
I kiss him one more time. We then join hands and begin to walk down the
beach towards my house. We walk in silence not saying a word. Our hands
just keep our souls together and we know that we'll be eternally bonded
together.
We get to my house and I part the curtain a little bit to see if Rikku is
still in there. Rikku lives with me when she's not with her family. She
stays with me for six months and she goes to the local club a lot. What's
even better is that we have a signal on the curtain to say if we have a
"guest." So far I haven't had to use the signal but she uses it a lot
more.
