I woke up to our hotel door being opened, and heard Lukes groggy -yet totally sexy- morning voice as he exchanged with who I assumed was the room service guy.
I sat up in my comfortable spot, and watched as Luke pulled the little cart in between our beds. He sat opposite me, and silently munched on some bacon as he thumbed through his phone.
"Want anything?" He finally asked. I looked up and through my tired eyes, recognized amusement his hazel ones.
Without saying anything, I scooted over and took a pancake.
"What's planed for today?" I asked, awkwardly smacking my tongue and lips together to wake them up.
"We can hang out at the pool." He shrugged, and picked up a few crumbs he dropped on the white bed sheet.
"When?" I asked, after watching in amusement at Luke pick up the crumbs like a guilty five year old.
"Now?" He suggested, shoving another pancake into his already full mouth.
I breathed out heavily and crawled off of the end of the bed, to my duffel bag.
A bathing suit had been packed. An extremely adorable pastel pink strapless bikini, to be exact. I held it in a ball in my hand and covered my mouth as a yawn escaped, and made my way to the bathroom.

Luke and I both had changed, and I also slipped on one of Lukes tshirts before heading down.
It was still pretty early (I was surprised that Luke was already up and ready before me), so no one was down yet.
The pool was fancy, just like every other inch of this hotel.
Luke and I walked past the still water, and took two seats against a gold colored wall.
We began slipping off our tshirts, and my gaze was connected to the water for quite some time. That was until I could feel Lukes gaze on my chest, it was like invisible lasers burning onto me. I snapped my head sideways, just to catch Luke for a split second. "Let's go then." Lukes face burned pink slightly, and so did mine. Luke jumped right in, and I headed for the stairs. It was cold! Step by step, i inched my way into the 4ft. Deep water. Luke just gave me one of those stares, you know when they tilt their head and raise their eyebrows. I refused to go any deeper, seeing as it was still 40 degrees in there!
I looked around a little, and that's when I spotted the hot tub in the corner. I darted back up the stairs -as fast as you can run in water- and tiptoed into the warmth.

Luke finally rose from the water, and rubbed his face free from any excess drippage. His dark brown curls fell flat against his forehead, until he flipped it back.
He looked around the pool confused, and I stuck my head up from the hot tub wall, just enough for my eyes to show.
When he spotted me, he grinned widely and treaded over to me. He jumped in, creating a splash and stood in front of me. We both laughed a little as I wiped the large drops of water from my face. "You jerk!" I giggled. I was still laughing as I rubbed my face, and hadn't realized Luke wasn't. I regained my vision from rubbing so hard, and my laugh slowly faded.
We stared at each other for a minute, Lukes gaze switching back and forth from my eyes to my lips.

And then it happened. Luke slammed his lips to mine, cupping my cheeks.
Part of me was screaming quick, pull away! you're kissing you're kidnapper? a criminal?
But a larger part of me screamed just out of pure joy yay, yay, yay! and I did little happy dance inside my mind.
