Zander finally got me pulled up. There was a look of complete horror on his face until he saw that I was perfectly fine. He pulled me into a tight embrace and buried his face in my neck.
"Aida, Aida, Aida... I'm so sorry. I can't believe I let that happen to you. I'm so sorry...," His voice quivered, " You almost died because of me. I'm so sorry."
"Zander It's okay; I'm perfectly fine," I pulled away from him and spread my arms out, " See perfectly fine!"
Zander still had a worried look on his face, but he nodded his head.
"Okay..." Zander said.
We both turned our heads when we heard the sound of a bell ringing. There, just barely within sight, was land. There were trees practically completely covering the entire beach, and several small cabins.
"Welcome to your vacation home guys!" I heard Nina say from behind us.
"Vacation?" Zander and I said at the same time.
"Yes. Vacation. You two need a nice and long vacation together, just the two of you."
I looked at Zander and saw that his cheeks had a slight pink hue to them. Was he... blushing?! It makes me wonder what dirty things he's thinking about right now... ew.
"How long will we be there?" I asked.
"You guys will be there for one month. I'll come and pick you guys up after the month is over." Nina replied.
I turned to Zander, " Did you know anything about this?"
"No I didn't, but this might be a good opportunity for us to catch up."
"He's right Aida." Nina pitched in.
The three of us just stood there for about ten seconds before I sighed and agreed with Zander and Nina.
"Well," Nina said, "it's not going to be long before you guys have to row yourselves into the shore, so I would suggest packing up your stuff and loading it onto the row boat." She paused. " Also there isn't anyone else here right now, so you have the entire island to yourselves, but that doesn't mean you have nothing to worry about. They say that this place is haunted, but I'm sure that's just an old rumor to keep people away from this place. Anyway, shoo shoo you two. Go get your stuff together!"
Zander's muscles were looking quite lovely while he rowed the boat to the shore. The closer we got to the sandy beach, the clearer the water got. It was gorgeous.
The boat finally eased it's way onto the golden sand. Up close, the cabins were in much nicer shape than they looked from the distance. The wood used to construct the cabins looked freshly cut and polished. There was even smoke coming out of one of the chimneys of one of the cabins. It was nice. This was going to be fun.
I grabbed my suitcase and walked to the cabin in front of us. About halfway to the front door, I decided to take my boots off and let my feet soak up the warmth from the sand. The sand was almost as soft as silk.
"WOAH!" I heard Zander yell.
I turned around to find Zander laying on his back halfway in the sand and halfway in the water. The sight was so ridiculous I simply had to laugh.
"Zander, how could you have possibly fallen? Did your foot get caught or something?" I asked.
"I guess my foot did get caught. I could've sworn that I felt someone grabbed my foot though..." Zander replied while rubbing his foot.
I shook my head, set my suitcase on the ground and walked over to him. "You silly little klutz. C'mon. Lets go get unpacked."
Zander grabbed my outstretched hand and pulled himself up." Yeah.." He said.
He then grabbed his own suitcase while still holding my hand and walked up to the front door of our temporary home.
Hey guys! Creature here! So I'm sorry to keep you all waiting for this update. I've just been really lazy -_- Also sorry for such a crappy chapter...
Anyway, Thanks for reading this story and PLEASE leave a review! It feels good on the soul whenever I read a review from someone who read my story (whenever I read reviews it makes me want to write, so if you want me to update my chapters more often, just post a review!) Also, Also, Whenever I read a fanfics, there's usually a disclaimer saying that you don't own the story or characters, blah, blah, blah. Should I start putting up a disclaimer at the beginning of my chapters? Oh, and it would be nice if you people could give me some ideas for later on in the story! I'm pretty much set on ideas right now, but I never know When I might run out... Thanks again peoplez!
PEACE!
