The captain informs everyone that a big storm is going to be making landfall in the next few hours. After they dock, everyone is ordered to pack up all their things. The curse is paying for a hotel room for everyone. Everyone exits the ship and heads to the hotel. Tracy and Antonio open the door to their room. They conveniently get one of the romantic suites. It has a heart shape bed up against the left of the room (a crystal chandelier is hanging above it) and a mini fridge. There is a bottle of white wine and two champagne glasses sitting on the table next to the bed.
"Wow this is amazing," Tracy says.
"I know my little angelfish, so I think we should get settled," Antonio says.
Tracy nods as they walk inside. Tracy unpacks her bags. She puts her dress in the closet and her other clothes in the dresser. Antonio puts his clothes away, and his fishing gear is up against the far wall. Tracy walks into the bathroom. She puts her toothbrush in the holder nest to the sink and her hair brush in the wall holster. Antonio is standing in the doorway. He sees a sad expression on his fiancée's face from her reflection in the mirror. He walks over to her and wraps his arms around her waist.
"Hey, my little angelfish, why are you so sad? I mean we're in a romantic suite in a hotel in Italy." He says.
"I was hoping that we would get to take a gondola ride while we're here that's all." She says
"We'll get to do that I promise. It's not going to storm the whole time we're here." He says.
Tracy covers his mouth with her hand. She tells him to be quiet before he jinxes it. Antonio chuckles and uses his right hand to remove Tracy's hand from his mouth. He tells her to relax and that everything is going to be fine. After he lets her go Tracy walks out of the room. He turns around to follow behind her. Tracy climbs onto the bed and sits up against the headboard. Antonio grabs the TV remote off of the end table. Then he climbs onto the bed and snuggles up into Tracy's chest.
"Let me guess you want to watch a movie?" She asks.
"It all depends on what is on," He answers.
Antonio turns on the TV and starts to flip quickly through the channels. Tracy reminds him that she knows that his attacks were fast, but she doesn't think that his eyes can work that fast. Antonio slows down and stops on the monster movie channel.
"I don't think so Tony; you know how I feel about monster movies. "Tracy reminds him.
"You know monster movies are fake, right?"
"I know that my golden knight, but I still don't want to watch it," Tracy says.
She reaches for the remote. Antonio moves his hand away quickly. Tracy pins him down onto the bed. He asks if she is going to let him up. She says that she won't until he changes the channel. Antonio wraps his right foot around Tracy's left ankle and pulls her down towards him. She lands softly on top of his chest. Then she asks, "You think you're cute don't you?" Antonio reminds her that she promised him that she would continue what they started in the bathroom when they were in Spain.
"I did say that didn't I. I can see that you want to watch a monster movie." She says sweetly
She starts to kiss his neck as she gets up to his jaw. She can hear a light moan escape from his mouth. She has her lips a few inches away from touching his. Antonio turns off the TV and puts the remote back on the end table. Tracy lets him out of her grasp as she kisses him passionately on the lips. As Tracy backs away, he sits up slowly.
"Wait that's all I get?" He asks.
Tracy walks to the door and puts the do not disturb sign on the outside of the door knob. She goes into the bathroom. When she comes out and looks towards the bed to see, her fiancé sitting in his boxers. He sees her in only her bra and underwear. She walks over to the bed and lies down. Antonio crawls like a crab over to her and lies down in her chest again.
"Remember our first time on the beach in Spain?" Antonio asks.
"Sure I do sweetie, why do you ask?" Tracy replies.
"I'm curious how come you never let me be on the bottom and why did you close your eyes after I took off your bikini top."
"Well, my golden knight I was afraid that it wouldn't work that way and that you would be disappointed when you saw how small my breast are." She answers.
"Honey, that size of your breasts doesn't matter to me. You're an amazing woman. Why would you think that it wouldn't work angel?"
"I'm shorter than you remember." She says.
"You're not that much shorter than me. I'm 5' 7'' and your 5' 5''."
"Those two inches make big a difference honey." She says.
Antonio rolls over and places his hands palms down on the bed. Tracy looks up at him Antonio starts to run kisses up and down her body. After he finishes that they begin to make out. A few minutes later they are lying on the bed on their backs completely naked.
Ten minutes pass before Tracy removes herself off of her fiancé and lies down on the bed staring at the ceiling. A few seconds later she sees her lover looking down at her.
"I guess it's my turn." He says.
"You sure that you want me to be on the bottom," She asks.
Antonio minutes later they are lying on their backs feeling so alive after what just happened. Tracy goes to use the bathroom. While she is in the bathroom, Antonio pours two glasses of white wine. When she come out, he walks over to her and gives her the glass. She sets her head on his shoulder. They tap their glasses together and take a sip.
"I hope that you didn't use up all your best moves honey." Tracy says.
"Don't worry sweetie I have plenty more I promise." He says.
Tracy smiles and takes another sip of wine. After they finish their wine she gives the glass back to him. Antonio asks her if she would you like some more wine. Tracy shakes her head no. Antonio goes over to the table and puts the glasses back on the table. They get dressed and go get some food before the storm hits. When they get back from the restaurant and walk into their room. When they get back from the restaurant and walk into their room. Tracy hears a loud rumble of thunder a few seconds later. She walks over to the bed and jumps into it. She wraps the blankets around her and grabs the TV remote. She turns on the TV and finds a movie channel that is showing "The Vow" and she sets the remote back on the end table. Antonio looks at her and watches her start to shake with fear. He goes over to the bed. He sits down next to her. Another loud rumble of thunder sounds, Tracy lets go of the blankets, and jumps into Antonio's lap. Antonio wraps his arms around her and pulls her into his chest.
"Sorry, " Tracy says.
"It's okay Angel. I know you hate loud sounds." He says.
Tracy looks up and sees the chandelier shaking above them. Tracy asks, "The chandelier isn't going to fall is it?" Antonio says no, he slowly lies down on the bed, places his right hand over Tracy's heart and feels it beating a mile a minute. He hates seeing her like this so he tries to find a way to calm her down.
"You know that you're safe right sweetie I won't let anything happen to you." Antonio reminds her.
"I know my golden knight. This storm is not as severe as the typhoon, but it's pretty close." She says.
Another rumble of thunder sounds and it's so loud that the room shakes slightly. Antonio feels Tracy's heart nearly jump out of her chest and hears her scream in terror.
"Relax my little angelfish and I'm right here. I promise everything is going to be fine." He says.
A bolt of lightning lights up the sky and power goes out a few seconds later.
"Great so much for the movie and it was just getting to the good part." Tracy whines.
"How many times have you seen this movie my little angelfish?"
"Five times," She answers
"I figured that considering you/we copying it word for word."
"Hey, it's a good movie," She snaps.
"I did pack the lightzord with my things, I'll be right back," Antonio says.
Tracy lies down on her side of the bed and he leaves to go get the light zord. He comes back, sets it on the end table, and turns it on. Then he lies back down on the bed. Tracy snuggles up next to him. Ten minutes later the room is starting to get stuffy so Antonio is lying in his boxers and Tracy is in her bra and underwear. Tracy begins to squirm from the hooks of her bra digging into her back. She turns over on her stomach. He rolls over as well and starts giving her a message.
A few minutes later he didn't hear Tracy saying anything. He stops and lies down on top of her and whispers into her ear, "You awake sweetie?"
"Yes," Tracy says.
Antonio gets up and lets her roll over. He looks down at her and sees her eye sparkling like stars. Tracy sees a smile on his face. She repeats the same move Antonio used on her to shorten the distance between them.
"Hey, I thought that was my move?"
"Who made the rule that you're the only one who gets to use it, my golden knight?" Tracy asks.
"No one I guess,"
Then she wraps her arms around his neck and kisses him gently on the lips. They back away a few seconds later. Antonio smiles and leans back in to kiss her again. This kiss was more passionate than the last one. While this is happening, they feel each other take off their last piece of clothing. They break away for air and notice that they are now in their birthday suits again.
"Do you want to have a little more fun?"
"Sorry honey not this time. I just thought you would like to let the boys get a chance to air out." Tracy answers.
Antonio chuckles and starts to kiss her neck. Tracy feels her body tingle with delight as each kiss happens. After he stops she tells him that she would be right back. She comes out of the bathroom she sees him lying on the bed with his back up against the headboard. Antonio watches as she throws herself at him. Antonio starts to kiss her passionately on the neck again. Then he kisses her on the lips. The kissing turns to making out and then things heated up. Twenty minutes later they are lying in bed in each other's arm.
"Honey, don't you think that we're going a little overboard?" She asks.
"No I mean we aren't forcing each other." Antonio answers.
Tracy gets up to use the bathroom and notices that the storm is over.
Well that is one way to distract me from getting scared by the storm.Tracy thought
When she is finished using the bathroom she walks over to the bed. She lies back down in her fiancé's chest. He puts his arms around her and smile comes to her face. A few minutes later she knew Antonio is asleep because she can feel his chest move up and down underneath her. She smiles and reaches over to turn off the light lightzord before she falls asleep too. Around two a.m. Tracy wakes up to the sound of the T.V. and shivers from the coolness of the air conditioner blasting through the room. Tracy turns to her left and picks up the remote to turn off the TV. She takes Antonio's hands off her waist and tries to get up to turn down the A.C. Tracy moves a few inches but Antonio pulls her back in towards him. She tries again but the something happened. Tracy rolls onto her stomach and whispers something into his ear.
"I promise that I'll come, back my golden knight. I just want to turn the A.C. down so we don't become samurai ice pops." She whispers.
Antonio opens his eyes slowly and sees Tracy's beautiful blue eyes. He tells her to hurry back. Tracy chuckles and kisses him on the cheek. Then he lets her go and she goes over to the air conditioner. She turns it down a couple notches and walks back over to the bed. She climbs onto it and lies back down in Antonio's chest. He wraps his arms around her again and they fall back to sleep. Two hours later Antonio hears Tracy say "No, stop it leave them alone" in her sleep and feels her tossing and turning in his arms. He wakes up a few seconds later. He shakes Tracy in an attempt to free her from her nightmare. Inside Tracy's nightmare, Tracy is walking through the park with a one-year-old. Then she is attacked by a new kind of nighlok and some moogers. She tells Anastasia to take cover behind a tree. Then the moogers capture her.
"Mommy help me," Anastasia yells.
"Don't worry Anastasia I'm coming." Tracy yells as she runs over to her.
The nighlok gets in front of Tracy and slashes her across the chest with his sword. Tracy rolls along the ground. She stops rolling and tries to get to her feet. She falls back down, demorphs, but has enough strength to lift her head up.
"Anastasia, no," Tracy yells as she watches Anastasia being dragged through a gap.
Back in reality Tracy's eyes dart open, she sits up quickly, moves over onto her side of the bed. Antonio looks over at her and sees sweat and tears rolling down her face. He gets up and walks to the bathroom to get a hand towel. He exits the bathroom and goes over to Tracy's side of the bed. She finds the strength to look over at him. He uses the rag to dry her face off.
"Antonio, it was awful." She says.
He sits down next her and pulls her into a hug. All Tracy wants to do is stay in Antonio's arms and listen to the comforting/ soothing beat of his heart. A few minutes later Antonio looks down and sees Tracy asleep in his arms. He lies back down on the bed slowly. He falls back to sleep again a few minutes later. Antonio wakes up again around 7 a.m. and sees his fiancée sleeping peacefully in his arms. He moves slowly so that he didn't wake her up. He lies her back down on the bed and kisses her on the forehead. He goes over to the dresser and takes out a change of clothes. He walks to the bathroom to take a shower. He finishes getting the water to the right temperature and steps in. He stands under the shower head and lets the water rinse the sweat off his body. A few minutes later he feels someone hug him from behind.
"Good morning handsome," Tracy says.
"Hey, I thought you were asleep?"
"I was honey, but you know I'm a light sleeper." She answers.
"Yes, you are my little angelfish."
"So, what are our plans for today?" She asks.
"I don't know angel. I was going to check out the city and see how bad this storm really was."
"Well, that's not very romantic." She jokes/whines.
"I promise we'll do something romantic afterward." Tracy starts to kisses his neck. "Are we really going to be that kind of couple?"
"No, unless you think that we should stop listening to our hearts," Tracy says.
Antonio thought about this for a second. While he is doing that Tracy stops kissing his neck. She starts to tickle him and she notices him beginning to squirm.
"I thought I was the ticklish one," Tracy says.
"Well, I guess we both are," Antonio says.
Tracy slowly sits down so that neither of them would get hurt while she continues to tickle him. He asks for her to stop through the giggles. She stops a few seconds later. After Antonio catches his breath he slowly gets to his feet and help Tracy gets up as well. "I'll let you finish your shower." Tracy starts to leave. Antonio pulls her back in towards him.
"You don't have to go. We could always just share the shower to save water." Tracy nods and smiles at his last statement.
A few minutes later they finish their shower. Tracy leaves to go change and after they get dressed. They leave the room and head to the lobby. On the way they run into another young couple.
"HI, I'm Kahlika-Ann, and this is my boyfriend, Rajanikant." Kahlika-Ann says.
"It's nice to meet you Kahlika-Ann I'm Antonio and this is my fiancée Tracy." Antonio says.
"Well congrats, how long have you two been engaged?" Kahlika-Ann asks.
"Not that long I would say five weeks." Tracy answers.
"Well it sure sounded like you two were having some fun last night." Rajanikant says.
Kahlika-Ann slaps his arm. She tells Rajanikant to stop being rude. Tracy jokes back by telling her it's all right. I figured out that walls were super thin when you can hear what is going on in the room three doors down from you.
"Wow, how did you manage to find such a lovely girl with such a great sense of humor?" Rajanikant asks.
"Destiny my friend, and if you don't mind me asking, How long have you two been together?" Antonio answers.
"Three years," Kahlika-Ann answers.
They talk for a while before saying goodbye and heading their separate ways. Antonio and Tracy walk into the lobby and the captain of the ship walks up to them. He has large eyes the color of the evening sky; fine, wavy, medium-length hair is the color of milk chocolate. He is very short and has a lithe build and china-white skin.
"Good morning Captain, is there a problem?" Antonio asks.
"I'm afraid so, the ships engine was severely damaged by the storm. It looks like we are going to be stuck here until the company can send another ship." The captain answers.
"What about the rest of the trip?" Tracy asks.
"I'm sorry Ma'am, but it looks like we are going to have wait see." The captain answers.
"Thank you for the information, sir, " Antonio says.
The captain nods turns around and leaves to find the other passengers
"Well, this sucks," Tracy says.
"Not really angel, I'm sure that we can find something to do to keep us entertained." He says.
"Yeah, I guess so." She says.
