Unexpected

Congratulations

Where is Patrick? How long does it take to put a bathing suit on?

"Excuse me I asked you a question," the voice says sounding stern.

"Yes that seat is taken," I respond shakily.

"I don't see anyone sitting in it."

"Actually I am sitting there so I'm going to have to ask you to move," I hear Patrick say. I jerk my head up and see Shawn facing Patrick. Their faces are inches away from each other. Patrick breaks the staring contest between them and looks at me. "Hey babe sorry it took me so long I was just looking something up," he says leaning down and kissing me.

"It's fine what were you looking up?"

"Why Shawn isn't in jail," he says turning towards Shawn.

"Patrick stop."

"No Olivia he's not going to hurt you. Because the police are on their way. Shawn broke free from jail and the woman he is with is a prison guard who helped him escape. He tricked her into thinking they could run away and live happily ever after. Now I'm going to have to ask you to leave because I believe you are not far away enough from my girlfriend."

"You're so lucky there are way too many witnesses otherwise I would of-"

"Would of what? Hurt me? Slap me? Huh?"

"Kill you!"

"That's hard to do from jail."

A sudden burst of commotion comes from the doors in the lobby. Police are armed with all sorts of weapons and vests. They come charging at Shawn and throw him to the ground. They slap hand cuffs on him and take him away. I start to tremble and my lips quiver. Patrick pulls me to my feet and hugs me tight.

"Shh. Olivia you're okay."

"I love you."

"I love you more."

Patrick kisses me and sits me down in the pool chair. He sits in the one next to me and rubs my leg. Why does this always happen to me?

It's Saturday. Also known as Valentine's Day. Patrick says he has a romantic evening planned and I'm supposed to look sexy. After Patrick and I finished breakfast we went snorkeling. I honestly have to say the ocean is a hell of a lot more beautiful under water than above. There's a bunch of different fish swimming around enjoying themselves. Patrick and I got a bunch of photos of us swimming around having the time of our lives. We spend about 3 hours snorkeling and eventually we have to get out. We drive back to the hotel and shower. Its almost 6 and our reservations are at 7:30. I shower after Patrick since it takes me longer. I dry myself off and put on my red strapless tight dress with sheer on the hips and above my breasts. I blow dry my hair and put in a headband braid and straighten the rest. I grab my white wedges and my white wallet. I present myself to Patrick and his eyes are glued on me.

"My girlfriend is beautiful."

"Eh. You're not so bad yourself," I say adjusting his tie. He wraps his hands around my waist and kisses me neck.
"No. Later. We have to get to our reservations."

"Okay put this on." He hands me a blindfold and ties it in the back of my head. "Take my hand and trust me."

"Do I have a choice?"

"Not really no."

He takes my hand and leads me
to the elevator. We wait patiently for the elevator to get to the lobby. Patrick picks me up off my feet and carries me bridal style.
