"What do you mean our booking was canceled?" Kim asked in confusion.
"Well sir, somebody logged into your account and canceled your booking. That's the only explanation I can give you," the woman on the reception explained.
"Damn it!" Kim murmured and turned toward us.
"Umm sir," the woman called.
"Yes," Kim turned back to face her.
"There are two rooms still not booked, would you like to have them?" She said smiling.
"Oh, yes please." Kim said exhaling.
We took our luggage and headed toward our rooms in the fifth floor.

Why are we here? You may ask. Well, we've finally finished our final exams and what comes after the exams is THE SUMMER VACATION. YAY!! And in order to celebrate we booked a flight to Florida. Also the band are going to have a concert here so yeah I tagged along with them.

Kim and I entered the room on the left while the others took the one on the right. Wow! The room was beautiful. It had a creamy colored, king sized bed matched with the walls, along with a table set for two. And last but not least there was about five paintings hanged on the walls with a plasma TV which was put in front of a big, brown sofa. Not to mention the gorgeous view we saw from the balcony.

All we had to do was take some rest before going to explore the places here. I laid straight on the bed while focusing my vision on the ceiling.
"I see that you have no trouble sleeping with me on the same bed," Kim said smirking as he plopped down next to me.
"What?!" I exclaimed looking around for another bed.
He chuckled "I'm just joking."
And without saying any more words, he stood up and walked toward the sofa. "I'm going to take a nap," he said before laying on the sofa.

I tried to take a nap too but I couldn't. Taking naps isn't something I'm good at so I decided to take a shower instead.

After I finished showering, I wrapped the towel around my wet body and walked outside. The slight, cold breeze coming from the air conditioner sent shivers through my spine and made me realize how cold the room was. I walked toward my bag that was placed under the TV in order to take some clothes. After I was done I turned around to head to the bathroom but then I saw Kim sleeping. I covered him with a blanket and kneeled down to take a closer look at his face. He looked handsome as always. Eyelids closed against the light and his breathing was deep and relaxed, all the muscles in his face and body were totally at peace .Not a twitch, not a spasm, barely any movement, his chest rising and falling with each intake of air such was the depth of his oblivion.

As I looked at him in admiration, I felt a sudden grip on my wrist.
"Kim,"I whispered. He opened his eyes slowly revealing the beautiful blue color hidden underneath them. "Oh, it's you Diana. What were you doing?" He asked with a raspy voice, his baby blue eyes never leaving mine.
"I was-um -actually I-" I stuttered not knowing how to reply. A big smile appeared on his lips as he touched my jawline.
"What?" I asked feeling my cheeks turn slightly pink.
"You look so cute when you don't know how to reply," he said before tracing his finger down to the crook of my neck. I don't know why but recently whenever Kim touches me not only I get shy but also so nervous.
"Kim, I -I need to -" I then stopped talking once I felt his sweet lips against my bare skin, his lips placed a kiss on my neck making me hot as fire. For a moment I wanted to stay like this for like forever but he then pulled away, looked at me with adoration, uncovered himself and walked to the bathroom leaving me in the room breathless.

I changed quickly before he got out of the bathroom in his new clothes. He was wearing shorts and a blue t-shirt along with a pair of blue vans.
"Ready?" He asked shoving his phone into his pocket .
"Yeah, sure." I replied taking my mini backpack.

*************
"Kim!! Slow down!!" I yelled over the wind trying to make Kim slow down. I didn't know that Kim knew how to ride a water motorcycle until now and not only that but he was also a pro in riding it.
"Why??" Kim yelled back.
"Because we are going too fast!!" I replied but the motorcycle didn't decelerate.
"Hang on tight, lollipop!". I heard Kim say these words and immediately tightened my arms around his torso. Oh God!! Please let us survive!!

Kim made a quick, sharp curve making my heart stop and my body melt like ice-cream. "Kim !!"I screamed at the top of my lungs while closing my eyes.
"What??" He replied in annoyance as he turned his head to face me. I opened my eyes slowly, exhaled and said "thanks God we are alive. And why do you look annoyed ?" 
"Coz you have just made a hole in my eardrums with that loud voice of yours," he responded.
"You know what?!" I said cheerfully and he replied coldly with"what?" 
"Let's do it again!" I smiled. Kim looked shocked at first but then grinned from ear to ear.

The beach was almost filled with people taking pictures, swimming, walking and doing a lot of other stuff. So as we walked along the beach then stopped for some ice-cream. Kim ordered a strawberry type of ice-cream while I went along with a chocolate one.

"Diana, watch out!" I heard Kim say before my body crashed into a big frame. "Sorry," I said as I lifted my head up to see a tall, tanned man with a light beard standing in front of me. I guess he was in his twenties.
"No, I should be the one apologizing for getting you covered with ice-cream." He said guiltily with his weird English accent.
"Covered with ice-cream?!" I exclaimed as I looked at my cupcake t-shirt. The guy then took some tissues from his pocket and handed them to me "I know wiping it away wouldn't help much but can I help you in any other way? " the man asked looking at me with a small smile on his lips.
"Nah she is fine, now if you would excuse us." Kim said all of a sudden as he grabbed my hand and pulled me away from that guy.

"Hey! People are looking at us! Kim! You're hurting my hand!" I said in annoyance. He stopped unexpectedly making me bump into his back.
"We're going shopping," he said before starting to walk again.
"Now?!" I asked in disbelief .
"Yes, or would you rather keep walking in these dirty clothes," he retorted and I just responded with silence.

Kim's sudden actions and ideas really surprise me sometimes. Half of his actions are crazy but they're always cool. In fact, they all end up satisfying both of us, except that stupid idea he got about us riding sharks.

We did some small shopping before going to one of these fancy restaurants we saw on the tour guide. Kim bought a black v neck t-shirt with a pair of black jeans, he said he doesn't like to be formal to go to some restaurant but insisted that I should get a long, fancy red dress. Though long dresses weren't my type I still got the dress since Kim said I looked beautiful in it.

"Why did you grab my hand suddenly without giving me some time to at least thank the guy for the tissues?" I asked in concern before taking a sip from my glass.
Kim put down the fork and the knife he was holding, sighed , looked at me in the eyes and questioned "do you really not know why I did this?" 
"No, I don't." I replied truthfully.
"Didn't you see the way that man looked at you?"
"Umm, I guess it was normal," I responded with a shrug.
"Well, do you call looking at people's lips in an erotic way and undressing them mentally in your head normal?!"
"What? Of course not. Doing that is absolutely low and flippant," I stated.
"Well, that was what that guy was doing in my own point of view," he said his face features showing how pissed off he was. I can't believe how can some men be so perverse. I mean I know it's a person's own freedom to look wherever he wants but once it encroaches another person's rights then it's not freedom anymore.

We then sat eating silently before I decided to break that silence "thanks," I said.
Kim lifted his head, looked at me and replied "you will be mine soon so protecting you from such guys is my job."
"Yours?" I asked raising one eyebrow.
"Yes . Soon you will be mine or are you in a hurry already?!" He said smirking as his blue eyes showed so much joy, happiness and privilege.
