DISCLAIMER: I am NOT Meg Cabot. I do not own the charecters (except for the unknowns). The plot, however, is all mine.
I'm really bored so... I'm just gonna type and see what happens with this chappy.
Thanks to everyone who has reviewed.
Ta-da!
Jesse's POV
Seven days into the honeymoon, we decided to actually leave the hotel room and go explore.
"So... where should we go, Querida?" I asked Susannah as we got into the rental car. We figured that instead of constantlygetting a cab, we would get a car so we could see more on our own.
"We could take that submarine tour that we saw at the hotel." Susannah suggested.
So, we went. We got there just before it left and luckily got a seat.
As the Submarine went down, A female voice came on the intercom. "Welcome to the Atlantis Submarine tour..." So on and so forth. I really wasn't paying attention, though.
Susannah was staring out of the window, looking out at the underwater creatures. The blue glow that was coming from the ocean made her look even more stunning, if at all possible.
"Isn't this cool?" She asked witha smile, looking up at me as she placed a hand on my thigh. Her smile caused me to jump back in surprise. i mean, it's not surprising to see her smile. She's been smiling the entire honeymoon. But the thing that was shocking was her teeth.
"Nombre de Dios, Querida. Your teeth are orange." I exclaimed quietly, knowing people didn't want to hear me screaming.
"Well, if you had listened... everyone's teeth are. It has something to do with floride in the toothpaste." Susannah explained. Call me wierd, but watching my wife is far more entertaining than listening to a woman on an intercom.
For the next 30 minutes or so, we simply watched all all of the sea life pass by. At one point we saw dolphins, which was pretty awesome.
Suddenly, Susannah jumped on me, screaming. Looking out at the window, I found what caused her to shout. It was a dead woman.
It was Malia. Rob's wife.
Suze's POV
Leave it to me to ruin everyone's fun. Thanks to my scream, we resurfaced and called the cops.
The cops identified her as Malia, a woman who disappeared two years ago. After the police asked some questions, we went to lunch.
"Well," I said as we got in the car. "At least Rob and his daughter can move on... and we can enjoy the rest of the honeymoon without any ghostbusting."
Jesse reached up and gently touched my cheek. I leaned into his warm hand, softly kissing his palm. "Are you ok, Querida? I hate seeing you so scared."
"I know. I mean, I don't plan on jumping in another submarine anytime soon, but I'm ok." I told him, giving him a reassuring smile.
After eating at a resturant called Dukes, we went to a Hawaiian store called Hilo Hatties. They actually gave us a lei as we walked in. It was shells, not flowers, but still. It was pretty cool.
The store was filled with a ton of Hawaiian clothes, which was good. Everyone wanted us to bring souviners and gifts.
We got a bunch to t-shirts for the guys and a cookbook for Andy (I know I'm gonna want more Hawaiian food in Carmel)
"Jesse." I said, causing him to turn and look at the baby outfit I found. "What do you think? For the new baby."
"I think it's great. Your Mom will love it.What if it's a boy, though." Jesse said, pointing at the pink material.
I glanced down at it and nodded. "Good point." I said. "I'll get the green."
As we continued walking, we spotted a booth where we could crack open an oyster and get the pearl inside.
So, we decided to do it. Out of curiosity, mostly. The woman handed me some wierd wooden tong-like things to pick an oyster.
Let me just tell you right now how much oysters smell. Even more so when opened.
"Just tap the shell three timesand thenshout 'Aloha!'" The lady told us. "For good luck."
Behind me, I heard a small snicker come from Jesse. I turned to look at him. He also thought it was ridiculous. But hey, we were on vacation. our honeymoon, to be percise. Who cares if we look like complete idiots?
"1..."
I tapped it once.
"2..."
I tapped it again.
"3!"
With a final tap, I shouted, along with Jesse anda group of about 5 people that gathered around the oyster.
"Aloha!"
The Woman cut open the oyster to find a beautiful pink pearl. "Pink means love." She told us, as she cleaned it. "Would you like to put the pearl in a charm for a necklace?"
Just when I was about to say no, Jesse said. "Sure."
I looked up at him to find a gorgeous smile on his face. "Pick one, Querida."
Eventually I settled on a white gold heart on a matching chain. The woman set the pearl inside the heart. Jesse told me to turn around as he put the necklace on me. The feeling of his fingers against the back ofmy neck was beginning to make me giddy.
We finally got to the register to pay for everything. The whole time we were waiting in line, Jesse couldn't seem to stop kissing me. AndI couldn't stop giggling. This was kind of surprising, since Jesse's not a big fan of PDA's.
But I guess when your on your honeymoon with you wife, things change in that department.
All I knew was that our next stop was the hotel room.
Yeah... i might have to end the honeymoon sooner since I'm leaving for Europe in 2 weeks. I'll be pretty busy packing, for the trip and our move. Yeah, were moving to a new house in a cople of months. So It's brown boxes, tape, and bubble wrap for me. No Jesse:-(.
Anywho... please review.
