Sail your soul, and cherish your moments.

For every second of breathe is stolen.

Life is limited, we shan't take it for granted. Our life's should only consist of moments taking our breathes away. And in that breathtaking moment shall we find solace, we shall feel happy, we shall feel, free.

Sail your soul, and cherish your moments.

For every second of breathe is stolen.

"I'm fine...I'll be back when I feel ready to return....yes, Adonis. Don't try and contact me after this, I'm not going to answer you. I'm on vacation...tell her I said I love her too...alright, goodbye." He disconnected his call. "He's really butt hurt that I didn't invite him on vacation." He chuckled.

"Does he know that I'm with you?"

"It's not his concern. A private life is a happy one. Not saying he'd impose, I just prefer things kept to myself."

"I know, Olympas. Remember, I am the same as you."

"Besides, they say for if a man finds a good woman, he finds a great thing. And if you do encounter greatness, you ought to keep it to thy oneself."

"Are you staking a claim over me?"

"Not at all, I'm stating that you are a very great thing miss."

"We're on first name bases now, Olympas."

"I agree, I was thinking we'd go venture out into the island today? We've been here a week and the most we've done was walk the beach, and eat at a local restaurant. We aren't abusing the full experience of vacation just yet."

"I have something in mind.."

"Care to enlighten me?"

"That's not what the element of surprise is about, Olympas."

"Olympas, I don't think this is the brightest idea you could come up with. You do understand we are both three years shy of thirty?"

"Oh, hush your fuss. As far as I'm concerned, age has nothing to do with how old you are. You tend to forget that you are not only your current age, but every age behind it too?"

"Yes I understand, but we aren't as limber as we used to be back in our golden days."

"The golden days haven't even occurred yet. C'mon."

His fingers latched onto his harness, petrified. I'd surprised him with parasailing, but the catch would be the jump once we reached our destination.

"If I don't die, remind me to make sure I kill you after this Olympas. You know I'm afraid of heights."

"Poor thing!" I giggled. "What better way to get rid of your fears than to face them?" I lightly smiled at him.
