Convergent Love

Chapter 24: Yoongi's Time

Yoongi picked me up at exactly 12 noon. Fortunately, no one else was home to see me leave with him. Mom thought I was spending the weekend with Malia. Before he started to drive, he turned to me and said,

"From this moment until I bring you back home, you are all mine, right? Your time, attention, and love. No one else exists."

"Yes, I am all yours."

With a big smile, he leaned in and gave me a kiss. "Good, because I plan on not wasting one second with you."

It took us about 45 minutes to reach the beach house. It was a cute little place right on the north shore. I looked around while Yoongi took our bags into the room. He must have come earlier because there was a vase full of white roses and lavender on the dinner table and the fridge was completely stocked.

"Did you come here earlier this morning?

"Yes. I wanted to make sure we had everything and no reason to leave this weekend."

"I'm impressed. That was smart planning."

He came behind me to give me a back-hug and whispered into my ear. "I told you, I'm not wasting a single second with you." He softly kissed the back of my neck. I slowly exhaled.

"Shall we go swimming first?" he asked.

"Swimming? You don't really care for the water."

"Yes, but I know you do. I want to do something that makes you happy."

"Okay, swimming it is."

We changed into our swimsuits and headed down to the beach. The waves were small and the water wasn't too cold. I knew he was hesitant to go in, so I grabbed his hand and pulled him into the water with me. I dunked myself under the water a few times while he just stood there shivering a little. It was actually very cute to see him enduring the ocean for me. I swam up to him and wrapped my arms around his neck and slowly pulled him down into the water until it was up to our necks.

"Pretend you're in a really big bathtub," I suggested to him.

Looking at me with a little smirk, "Well, if this is supposed to be a large bathtub, shouldn't we be naked."

"Ha, ha. Nice try. I don't think that family over there with the three little kids would appreciate that."

Moving his hands over my body under the water, he seductively said, "Oh, but I sure would!"

"Behave!" I said while swimming away from his embrace.

He tried to catch me, but I was a better swimmer than him. Finally, I gave in and let him catch me. I jumped on his back so that he was piggybacking me. We were laughing and having a good time when a green sea turtle happened to swim by us. It was an amazing site to see.

I could tell after 45 minutes of being in the water, he was getting cold. I suggested we get out and sit on the beach for a while. We dried off and let the rays of the sun warm us up. He reached over and held my hand.

Looking out at the ocean, he said, "This is nice, being here with you."

"Yes, it is," I replied while resting my head on his shoulder. We sat like that for some time, just enjoying the view and each other's company.

Finally, he suggested, "Hey let's go in, wash up, and get something to eat."

"Sure, I'm actually kind of hungry."

When we got back into the house, he suggested I shower first while he started making something to eat. By the time I got out, he had already made sandwiches.
