Off Limits - Josh Dunkley

Thirty Nine

"Are we nearly there yet? We've been driving for an hour." I say to Josh and he just chuckles. 

"Nearly, only half an hour to go." He says and I groan. 

"Hey, you're gonna love it." 

"I hope so, otherwise I'm suing." 

"And who exactly are you going to sue?" 

"You of course." 

"Hey, I'm the one paying for the petrol." 

"Fair point." I say which makes him laugh. 

Not long after we arrive at our destination. It looks somewhat familiar but I still have no idea where we are. 

"I hope you put some runners on." Josh says with a smirk and I nod. 

"Of course I did. I don't go anywhere without a pair of runners on." I say and he nods. 

We both get out of the car and Josh grabs my hand. 

"Come, this way." He says virtually pulling me and I chuckle. 

We walk up this path and it looks like we're walking through a jungle. 

"Are you sure you're not kidnapping me?" I say and he laughs. 

"No bubs, trust me you're gonna love it." He says giving me a reassuring squeeze and I sigh. 

We continue walking until we stop. 

"Alright do you trust me?" He asks and I nod. "Okay, close your eyes." 

I close my eyes and feel him pulling me. His hand is intertwined with mine, and his other hand is on my shoulder, guiding me and making sure I don't fall or trip on anything. 

"Alright, I'm gonna get you to take your shoes off." He says and I frown, with my eyes still closed. 

"Take my shoes off." 

"Just trust me." He says and I sigh as he helps me take my shoes off as I can't really do it with my eyes on. I feel my shoes and socks come off and feel a hard surface underneath my feet, it feels like a massive rock. 

"Okay, now sit down." He says. 

"Right here?" I say and he nods. 

"Yes bubs, right here." 

"Okay." I say carefully sitting down and stretching my legs out until I feel them dipped in cool water. 

"You can open your eyes now." He says and my eyes shoot open. 

"Oh my god." I say as I take in my surroundings. 

"See, I told you I'd love it." 

"You brought me to Cape Schanck?" 

"Yes, yes I did." Josh says sitting down next to me and also dipping his feet into the water. 

I take in the view around me. I am sitting on the edge of a rock pool, with the ocean not too far away from where we're sitting.
