Not Much to say except Read On!.

After unpacking, I change into my rainbow bikini, a tank top, maxi skirt and flip flops, grabbing my sunnies, book and towel and tell Mum and Dad I'm going down the beach for a while. I leave the hotel, walking down the chalky winding white lane that leads to the beach. I set my towel down at a spot right at the end and change out of my tank and maxi skirt. I run into the ocean, diving under the waves. I love swimming. I swim about, splashing and whirling and enjoying the wondrous feeling of the waves lapping against my hot skin. Suddenly though I trip over a rock I didn't see and splash head first down in the water. I struggle to come back up again and realise the waves have carried me too far out. I can't swim back. 'Help' I scream but it feels too late. I sink under the waves and stay there for a few seconds before feeling strong arms wrap themselves around my body, tugging me back to the surface. They swim powerfully back to shore and lay me down. I gasp and cough, choking on the salt on my tongue, in my mouth. 'Are you ok?' A soft voice asks and I look up to come face to face with the most beautiful green eyes. Deep emerald eyes bore into my grey-blue ones. I nod slowly. 'I'm Alessandro' He says. 'Carmela' I reply. 'A beautiful name for a beautiful girl' He says and I blush. I stand up and nod at him. 'I think I'm okay now. Thank you for saving me' I say and pick up my stuff, about to head back to the hotel. 'Wait, will I see you again?' He asks and I smile. 'Most definitely' I say confidently and with that I stride on up the path and back to the hotel. The whole day my only thoughts are about him and when I might see him again. I certainly hope so. I make a mental note to make it my goal to see him at least once before the vacation is over. Later that evening after dinner of chicken pasta and garlic bread in the hotel I climb into bed and fall asleep, dreaming of boys with green eyes.
