Chapter 5
Kol's POV
We are sitting on the edge of the boat's platform with our legs dangling into the water, we are surrounded by beauty and mainland is near the horizon. Elena leans on her elbows soaking the sun. I can't help but stare, infatuated by her and her body. The gold metallic zip on her strapless bikini is undone by a centimeter, as it is tight. Every breath she takes causes her chest to tighten, so does her stomach, which has hidden abs. As a guy it is inevitable for me to notice these things. She tilts her head back revealing her pulsing neck with water dripping down through her cleavage.
Elena's POV
Oh my god. Does Kol know how hot his body is? His modesty makes him even more irresistible. While leaning back, I have a perfect rear view of his back muscles glimmering in the sunlight. I lean my head back and let my hair fall. This is a great feeling. Somewhere in me hopes Kol will admire my body, guilty.
"Do you want to ride the Jet Ski?" He asks.
"Yes!" I exclaim, "But I can't drive."
"I can." He politely and subtly suggests. I can't help but smile in my head as this involves an intimate positioning. He brings out the Jet Ski in no more than 15 seconds, literally. He laughs at my startled expression. "Hop on" He asks. I un-hesitantly strip off the suit and Kol extends his hand for assistance, it is about a one and a half meter gap forcing me to leap, Kol pulls me in quickly, embracing me. I feel his breath against my chest making me weak. I grip his arms while bringing myself to the back seat. I place my hands on Kol's waist for stability. We immediately zip away and all of my worries slip away, I tighten my grip and slowly bring my hands to his stomach bringing us closer.
Kol's POV
Elena basically jumped on me, who can't resist? Her cleavage was no more than an inch away from my face making my heart rate quicken. Elena just can't stop hugging me today. First when she jumped onto the Jet Ski and now this. Her grip comforts me. I feel her body being pressed to mine, her heartbeat spreads through me like a disease and all I can focus on is her. She feels my stomach as she pulls her hand away to lift it into the air and screams "woo!" for a dozen seconds as we ride the waves. She returns to her warm embrace and gives me a tight squeeze to show her happiness and I reply with a smile back to her. I love making Elena happy, there is no better feeling.
Elena's POV
This is the best feeling in the world. For once I feel so carefree. With my excitement I cant help but hug Kol tightly to show my appreciation. He looks back at me with a smile of nothing but adoration. We drive through the waves and back to the boat when we start to see storm clouds forming. As we drive back I just sit with my head against Kol's back and arms wrapped around, feeling his muscles tense and just think about how I hope life could stay like this forever. It suddenly starts to rain when we arrive back to the yacht.
Kol's POV
I help Elena get back onto boat before I lock up the Jet Ski. She comes back with a blood bag and I thank her with a hint of a smirk. She walks to the front of the boat's point where she overlooks the view and I join her. It is already 6, the sky darkens with the rain clouds. I sit leaning on the edge of the boat in the dark facing the window. The light turns on and I see Elena with her long tanned legs strolling across. She dries her hair with a towel so gracefully I don't move a muscle. The glows of the lights comfort me. I hear footsteps; a bullet is shot from my left and I duck. I immediately look to Elena and she is shot in the shoulder. I speed to her, pulling out my attacker's heart on the way. I catch her before she hits the floor and I place her on the sofa as I rip out the other two men's throats out. I look through their belongings to find my wallet, my Rolex and some china. They were just a few guilty thieves who are willing to kill for loot. I rush back to Elena still with blood on my face and hands. I feel tears forming in my eyes as Elena is struggling to maintain consciousness. "Elena! Stay with me, don't close your eyes. Drink my blood." I tell her as I rip out some flesh from my wrist. I squeeze my wrist to pour blood down her throat. Her blood stains her white bikini and coats her skin. I hold her in my arms as we lean against the door on the floor with a man's body two meters away. There is so much blood but it does not affect me. All I can think about is Elena and how I couldn't do the only thing I was supposed to do.
Elena's POV
I wake up to see Kol, I am in his arms and he sighs with relief as he squeezes me tight. "I couldn't tell if you were taking my blood." He tells me with his mouth against my ear. He loosens his grip and leans his head back in relaxation. I look to his face, his eyes closed. I am flattered he shows so much care. I put my arms around him while sitting on his lap and just drop my head in his neck, "Thank you Kol" I tell him. I had almost died and if it weren't for Kol, my attacker would have shot me fatally. I feel calm with Kol, my hero.
Kol's POV
I wake up and the room is filled with a soft glow from the sunrise, we are in the exact same positions with my arm holding her. Her left arm rests on my stomach. I want to stay like this but I am desperate for blood, I slowly stand up with Elena still in my arms. I bring her to the bedroom and place her on the bed. I take one last breath with Elena's face lying in my neck and regretfully leave to the fridge. I drink out of the blood bag while cleaning up the dead bodies by throwing them into the ocean. I start the engine to vacate the crime scene and head back to land. I set it on auto-drive so I can go outside on deck and admire the sunrise.
Elena's POV
I wake up. I am in the bedroom of the Mikaelson yacht and cant help but smile, this is a good life. Even though I was technically kidnapped. I am not really as affected by the events of last night, as I should be. I am so used to this type of drama. I walk out to put my white beach dress back on and see Kol staring into the view. I join him and he greets me with a smile.
"Are you feeling better?" he asks.
"Yeah, don't worry I'm fine." I reply, "Thanks again for, well, saving my life."
"Yeah don't worry about it." He simply replies. I firmly grip is arm.
"No really Kol, I could've died." I tell him while looking into his eyes.
"You should regularly drink my blood for safety precautions, if you want" he suggests.
I nod and then look back at the sea and spot an animal stuck in a net caught onto a buoy.
"Kol! Look, we are going to kill it!" I tell him panicked. He speeds to the cockpit to turn off the engine and speeds back to the deck and takes off his shirt to dive in. The boat continues to move through the momentum and I scream for Kol to hurry up, we are going to crush both the animal and Kol. In no more than two seconds Kol frees what looks like a dolphin and dives just out of the way of the boat. I rush to the back of the yacht and hug Kol as he is climbing up the ladder, he is brushing his hand through his wet hair and he hugs me back pulling me into the water. The water drowns my scream. We are both laughing and relived, we breathe fast out of adrenaline. "Oh my god, that was so close. The boat almost crushed you!" I tell him as I nudge his shoulder.
"You mean like this?" He grabs my shoulders and pushes me underwater once again. He gets back on the boat and offers his hand. I take his hand and try to pull him in but he is too strong. Instead he quickly pulls me in so our faces nearly touch. He is on the edge so my feet are positioned one in between both his feet and the other on one. I awkwardly and softly thank him, as I was not expecting this. After staring into each other's souls he steps back and allows me to pass.
Kol's POV
Elena and I can't stop intimately embracing. We have moments of hesitation, which I thoroughly enjoy. Elena's dress sticks to her body like glue, I follow her up the stairs, so tempted to just sweep her off her feet and-. We drive to the docks and park next to the road crowded with people. I compel a boatman to deal with the yacht and I help Elena down. Her dress has already dried in the morning sun, her skin has tanned beautifully giving her face a tint of red from the sun. Her eyes enhanced by the contrasting tones. We walk along the busy street and this time I hold Elena's arm for security. I see her look to me with a smile.
"How does breakfast sound?" I ask.
"Yes, I would love some breakfast right now, where should we eat?" she asks. We walk along the seaside and choose an outdoor restaurant with couples.
"I can get used to this life easily, thanks again Kol. " She says while I chuckle, she clasps my hands and leans forward "Not only this trip, ". Wow Elena is really thankful even how I actually kidnapped her, this makes me feel guilty.
"Elena, don't thank me. You-" I am cut off by the energetic waitress eager to serve us.
"Hi! What can I get for the lovely couple?" She asks. We both laugh and attempt to tell her we aren't romantically involved but instead she just starts listing all of the special offers. She lets go of my hands and we sit back smiling at each other. We place our orders and are served immediately with cups of freshly brewed coffee.
Elena's POV
We are asked to be taken a picture of. We both stand up and Kol puts his arm around my waist. "Kiss her!" The waiter next to her shouts. They refuse to not lose. Kol looks to me laughing and I nod with 'approval'. He gives me a peck, the woman tells us she didn't catch it on camera. Kol sighs and pulls me in again and kisses me, I, surprisingly, get into it and we start making out. I grab Kol's hair while pulling him closer, while he lowers his grip down my spine. I release a soft moan of enjoyment and he smiles and we pull back and look to her questioning. The waitress cheekily smiles, "You sure do make a good couple." While handing us the Polaroid in a heart shaped paper frame. It slowly fades into focus. I feel the need to say "Sorry about that," while chuckling nervously.
"What? Don't be. That was- enjoyable." We both laugh.
