Lena stepped out onto the private deck of their overwater villa, eyes wide, takin' in the clear blue water stretchin' out as far as she could see. She could barely believe they were here, all the way in the Maldives, just her and Que. It felt like somethin' straight out of a dream, the kinda place she'd only seen in magazines. But here they were, finally gettin' the chance to just breathe and enjoy each other.Que came up behind her, slidin' his arms around her waist, pullin' her close. "Ain't this view somethin'?" he murmured, kissin' her neck softly. "I wanted us to have this. Just me and you, no distractions."
She leaned back against him, smilin'. "It's perfect, Que. Can't believe you really brought us out here."
He chuckled, squeezin' her tight. "Anything for my wife."
Soakin' Up Every Moment
They spent their days slow, soakin' up every moment. The villa was somethin' else, with floor-to-ceiling windows lookin' out over the ocean, a huge bed draped in white, and even their own private pool. They didn't have to go nowhere if they didn't wanna, just layin' in each other's arms, listenin' to the waves.
Some days, they'd take a dip in the pool, laughin' and splashin' each other like kids, or they'd sit out on the deck, lettin' the sun warm their skin, talkin' 'bout everythin' and nothin'. At night, they'd have dinner under the stars, the sound of the ocean all around them, no worries, just the two of 'em.
Romantic Nights
One evenin', Que surprised her with a candlelit dinner right there on the deck. The villa staff had set up a table, candles all around, rose petals on the floor, and soft music playin' in the background. Lena felt like she was in a movie, her heart skippin' at how perfect it all was.
They sat close, Que reachin' for her hand, lookin' at her like she was his whole world. "You know, I ain't never felt like this 'bout nobody," he said, his voice low and filled with emotion. "You been my heart since day one."
Lena felt her cheeks heat up, smilin' as she looked down, feelin' a lil' shy. "Same here, Que. I don't want nobody else but you. You my forever."
After dinner, they headed back inside, Que pullin' her close, kissin' her slow and deep. He carried her to the bed, layin' her down soft, whisperin' how much he loved her between every kiss. They spent the night wrapped up in each other, the world disappearin' outside those walls.
Explorin' the Island
They spent a few days explorin' the island, ridin' bikes down palm-lined paths, visitin' secluded beaches, and swimmin' in the warm, clear water. Lena loved every second, feelin' like she was seein' a whole new side of life. They'd snorkel, watchin' colorful fish dart through the reefs, Que always close, holdin' her hand, keepin' her safe.
One afternoon, they took a boat out to watch the sunset, the sky turnin' shades of orange and pink, meltin' into the water. Lena sat beside him, layin' her head on his shoulder, feelin' that quiet happiness deep in her soul.
"This is the kinda life I want with you," Que murmured, his arm around her. "Just peace, love, and bein' together."
She nodded, smilin' up at him. "We gon' have that, Que. I believe that with my whole heart."
Leavin' with a Full Heart
As their trip came to an end, Lena felt a lil' bittersweet, wishin' they could stay longer. But she knew they were takin' this peace back home with them, carryin' every memory as a reminder of what they were buildin'.
On the flight back, Lena held Que's hand, leanin' on his shoulder, already dreamin' of the life they'd continue to create together. This was just the beginnin' of their forever.
