Young Love

Chapter 3

                                                                     The First Day of Paradise...

After hours of being stuck on the plane, we finally landed at 3:00pm. Me and Amelia got to the hotel and checked ourselves in. The hotel room was massive! There were two beds on either side of the room and two wardrobes opposite. Next to the beds was a giant window that overlooked the beach. And there was also a separate room attached to the bedroom that contained a shower, bath and sink. Everything looked so neat and clean. I collapsed onto the bed on the left side of the room where I thought I would be staying for the rest of the day. However, Amelia had other plans. "Get up lazy, I want to go to the beach!" She yelled. She pulled me up so I was unattached from the bed. I tried to think of an excuse that would help me avoid running around in public with a bikini on. "I er forgot my bikini." I said. She laughed. "Thats fine because I packed a spare bikini in my bag." She pulled out a 2 piece bikini that was mint green out of her suitcase. I sighed as I grabbed the bikini heading towards the bathroom.

Before we went to the beach, I put some shorts and a vest over my bikini so I don't feel as uncomfortable. I got out my tote bag from my suitcase and put in sun cream, lip balm, a towel, a hair bobble, a book and water. Amelia packed similar things in her bag. Then, I put on my flip-flops and walked out the door with Amelia excited to go swimming in the sea and get a tan. Looking at the expression on Amelia's face, I could tell she was excited too.

As soon as we got to the beach I played my towel on the sand next to Amelia's. I then took off my shorts and vest and ran into the sea. The salty cold water felt cool against my skin. Amelia laid on her towel  to try and get a sun tan. After swimming in the sea, I sat down on my towel and read 'Little Women.' "Little women, good choice." A figure said behind me. I turned around to see Brian standing infant of me with his arm crossed. I giggled. "What are you doing here, stalker?" I asked with a grin. I got lost in his eyes before he said, "To surf on the waves, you?" He asked. I could feel butterflies in my stomach. "Just reading a book and hanging out with Amelia. And, you do surfing?" "Yeah I do, I've been doing it since the age of 5. I come to this beach every summer to get in some surfing practise before my business meetings." He says. "Business meetings? What for?" I ask. "You ask a lot of questions Mia. I own an engineering company here. So I come visit Dubai a few times a year to make sure my company is doing ok." I nodded my head so he could see I was interested. "That sounds so cool! Is that what you have always dreamed of doing?" "Yes either having my own company or being a lawyer. What do you do?" He asked. "At the moment I work in my mum's cafe but I'm training to become a flight attendant." I replied. He looked at me in awe. "That sounds sick! I could see you being a flight attendant. So are you in university?" He asked. "Yes I am, i'm currently doing my masters but I'm graduating next year. You?" I looked at Amelia who was sleeping. "I graduated last year and to be honest I kind of miss university." I laughed and nodded. "Well anyways I'm going in the sea, you want to come?" He asked. I thought about it. And all I could think about is how good of an opportunity it is so I can get to know him better. "Yeah sure, I will be there in 2 mins I just need to do something." He nodded and walked towards the beach. I got the sun lotion out of my bag and put some on my arms, legs and face so I could stay protected. I then put some on Amelia so she wouldn't burn up. Then I ran to the sea not wasting another second. 

I dived into the ocean and could see Brian in the far distance on his surf board. I swam towards him and cheered as he surfed over a Wave. He got off his surf board after seeing me and swam towards me with his surf board in one hand. "Hi Miss Richards, want to go on my surf board with me?" He asked. OH MY. Did he just call me miss Richards? "Yes Mr Evans I would be delighted to." I answer and laughed. He got back on his surf board and pulled me up. I held onto his waist as we floated on the water. I could feel the cool air push against my wavy hair, causing it to go everywhere. He turned his head and looked back at me with a smile on his face. "Do you want to fall into the water on our backs?" He asked. "HECK YEAH!" I answered. I wouldn't do this kind of thing normally but Brian makes me want to be adventurous. And every time he's around me I get butterflies and goose bumps. Ive never been so nervous yet confident around anyone before. I cant wait to spend 3 weeks with this man. He grabbed hold of my hand and turned his back towards the ocean and I did the same. "3...2...1..GO" He shouted. We both fell backwards into the sea and it felt electrifying. When we both rose to the surface I laughed. "That was so fun!" I shout.
