chapter 32: The cruise

I looked out to the glistening blue sea. The sea was free. Free from troubles. Free from pain. Free from the aches. And finally, so was I.

We were getting ready in the hotel room, preparing for our night out that Lye had apparently planned for us.

I was finishing up on my makeup whilst Lye was helping Sadie tie her heels. Our outfits made us look like luxurious people, it was so different to what I truly was used to, well until Lye and Sadie that is.

Ever since I met them all I ever felt was luxurious, it felt nice to feel spoiled and like royalty. As much as I missed the simple life it was just as nice to be able to dress up in such pretty outfits and go to amazing places that were only once in a life time experiences.

I looked at our outfits and smiled. Lye was wearing a suit that fitted him perfectly, most men looked great in suits but he made it seem like the suit looked better because of him instead of the other way around.

Sadie was wearing a red dress that stopped just before her knees and a white pearl necklace with matching earrings and black heels. She looked as elegant as ever.

And finally there was me. I wore a dark purple dress with a white shawl, a black necklace and earrings and white heels.

Truthfully I loved how we all looked. We were like true royals, Sadie and Lye were the queen and king and I was their princess. It fitted perfectly.

The place we went was a surprise for me and Sadie, a surprise we both loved and would remember forever. At first we went to to a family business restaurant that felt like one of the friendliest places on the planet and then we went for a long walk along the sea front, making it feel like the perfect romantic night as we looked at how beautiful Paris was. Suddenly Lye had made us stop in front of a boat, making me question what was going on.

Me and Sadie were as confused as ever at first before a man came out "Vendetta, Azrail and Dian?" We were addressed by our last names. How did he know what our last names were?

"Yes" was the simple answer from Lye as we were let on board.

We were on an actual boat, like an actual one. I felt like a little kid again who wanted to be a pirate queen.

Every surprise I ever got from Lye always seemed so perfect and I felt like the most special person on the planet to have such an amazing couple in my life. Sadie my perfect queen and Lye my perfect king, the two people I wouldn't have any trouble in worshipping forever.

The boat soon started up and i leaned against the railing, looking out to the sea. The sea always fascinated me, knowing we had only ever explored 5% of the ocean made it seem so intriguing. What was out in the ocean, we knew sharks and octupus and fish existed, and we had theories about mermaids and sea monsters but what else? 

The sea both terrified and welcomed me, it felt dangerous as well as safe, it felt loving as well as hateful. There was so much to discover about it. The ocean covered at least half of the planet itself and there was so many disoveries of lost cities down below and other things too. I felt like the ocean was calling to me. 

"fascinated beautiful?" I heard Lye's voice and i nodded as a reply, still focusing so much on what made the entire world go around. Without the sea we wouldn't be able to be alive, however the sea killed us too. The sea was the most dominant thing on the planet to exist. 

As i watched the sea i took photo's of it, to me photo's were some of the most important things in the world, photo's showed history and memories. Photo's kept a moment frozen in time forever. 

I felt Lye pull me in by my waist and i kissed him softly, wrapping my arms around his neck, the romantic moment made everything feel euphoric. 

As the swift moment ended we were taken to an entertainment room, there being two singers in the centre. they were singing what seemed to be original romance songs and it just set the mood so much more. 

as i turned to lye and sadie i saw them kissing eachother like they were the only people in the room and with the most love any couple could have for eachother. I smiled softly at the sight, the love they had for eachother always made me the happiest and feel like the luckiest person in the world to be able to see such a beautiful couple.

I turned back to the singers and watched them with dreamy eyes, my fantasies playing in my mind. How did I get so lucky?

During the entire performance Lye and Sadie continued to show their love for eachother and I couldn't be happier. Sometimes seeing them together felt even better than having them show me the love they did for eachother.

Eventually as the performance finished we went to the ice cream bar and ordered some of their flavours. Sadie and Lye ordering chocolate as I ordered a vanilla one.

Vanilla ice cream was the only thing vanilla was good for. I giggled at my thought.

As we ate our ice cream, we talked and laughed together. It felt like how a normal couple was supposed to be.

I knew nothing about us truly was normal but in that moment it felt like we were no different to anyone else.

We were simply a couple on a boat with many rooms. There was no danger. There was no suffering. It was simply us and many other people on a boat.

It felt nice to not have to worry about anything.
