A/N: So, just because I've had a lot of writers block, I'm unable to properly finish it the way I want to. So I might just have to rush the completion of this book but I promise, when I'm not struggling so much, I will pick this back up and start on the second book.. or just put this book on hiatus, we'll see how this plays out. As always, thanks for reading! It's always good to take time for yourself when you need it. Remember, you're more then welcome to vote and comment letting me know how you like the book.

---Narrators POV---

"I can't believe this room!" Rain said in excitement looking over the edge of the balcony to see Kriti in all it's beauty.

"I can't believe the beauty either." She turned around to see Luke looking at her and then quickly at the city of Sitia behind her.

"I'm glad you're enjoying the view." She chuckled.

"How could I not?" He looked away trying to hide his blush.

"Thank you Luke." She smirked.

"For what?" He placed his bag on the chair getting ready to put his clothes in the drawers.

"For all of this. I feel...weird but in a good way."

"I think you mean to say you feel happy or content or even satisfied." He smirked as he turned around and watched her think.

"Not exactly that. I do feel happy in the moment but what I'm feeling is... complete. I've been feeling like I've missed something just leaving a hole in me and now it feels full."

"I'm glad. I've been feeling the same way after getting you back in my life."

"Right, well.. what are we going to do first?" She smiled brightly turning around trying not to blush.

"Why don't we go explore a bit? Or we could just hang out in our room for a bit and then explore later. It's whatever you want to do." Luke smirked at the power he had over her.

"Let's go for a walk. I'd like to tour the island a little bit." She said shaking off her blush and walking back inside.

"Sounds like a great idea. Let me just finish unpacking these real quick." He said grabbing her luggage.

"I already told you, I can do that myself." She rolled her eyes walking over to him and her bags.

"Then you can help me as I put them away, how about that?" His smile was contagious as they unpacked the rest of her clothes.

After unpacking and having a decent lunch, the two hiked up Spathi and explored the caves enjoying eachothers company more then anything else.

"I love these caves." Rain smiled as she ran up the stairs.

"I'm glad you're enjoying them. It's a little dark for my liking but if you love them then so do I." Luke chuckled following behind her carrying a back pack filled with water, snacks and first aid if neseccary.

"I love caves because the unique atmosphere. It's always different then the wide open skies. If you want to enjoy the nature of Earth, I think the best way to do that is to travel through caves because the stars, the moon or sky won't distract you from the real beauty that our planet has to offer." She smiled looking up to the stalactite in awh.

"You have a point there. A lot of people are more romanticized with space and other planets and completely forget the beauty of our own home." Luke couldn't help but be drawn into Rains passion as he followed her steps up the stairs.

"I understand the sky and stars and other planets are beautiful as well but, Earth needs a lot more love. It gives us shelter, food and everything we need to survive. It deserves a lot more then we're willing to give it."

"I agree. What did you want to do after this? Because it's pretty warm today." Luke said fanning himself.

"Let me carry the bag for a little bit. I think you're over heating a bit." Rain said as she pulled out a bottle of water for Luke and grabbed the bag from him.

"I could have carried it for a while longer." He said before opening his water and chugging the contents.

"And I'd rather not have to carry you and it. You've been kind enough. Let me do some stuff too please." She laughed as they walked back towards the entrance. "Besides, I was thinking we could drive to Psiloritis and hike over there?"

"You really love nature don't you?" He chuckled as the air drifted in with the smell of the ocean.

"I can't help it. It's in my blood." She looked up and saw the light seeping in with the fresh air.

"Your blood is about to be spilt." A nasty, angry and familiar voice rung in Rains ear.
