My hero, my lover.

Chapter 36.

Surprisingly Alan had not planned anything for the bed in the back of the plane. For some reason it was like he knew I would be restless throughout the flight and so he had a bed in the back to help me relax and to nap on through the duration the flight. Before I knew it we were already there. 

Stretching from my numerous naps, I climbed off the plane hand in hand with Alan. Already the heat had hit me and I had a little bubble of excitement floating in the pit of my stomach. Climbing into a roofless car, we travelled to what I assume will be the place we are to call home for the duration of this holiday. Smiling, I took in the views as we passed by lots of lovely scenery and little extravagant houses. In this moment I  could not be a happier woman, I am so in love with Alan. He is so caring and sweet with all the things he has done for me/us. He has given me a place at home for me to make a project on; My little green house dome, taken us away to escape the drama that we have endured and has been there for me through thick and thin. I couldn't imagine anything more perfect than being on holiday with the one I love and escaping all the troubles that we left behind in England. 

The car come to a stop outside what looked to be a villa completely made of glass overlooking the ocean, it was almost as if we were living directly on the beach. I was speechless as I took in the view. Time seemed to stand still as I took a very deep breath in and stepped forward toward the villa. I couldn't even make something this beautiful with my imagination let alone know such a place exists. I took the few steps that led to the front doors and turned the handle and pushed lightly to reveal a wooden interior hallway, it was gorgeous, you could ever so slightly see into the living area off to the left and there were gleaming white leather arm chairs staring back at me as I ogled every inch of what I could see so far. Taking my shoes off at the door I left Alan to get the luggage while I went on an adventure through our new abode. 

An archway to the left lead to a gorgeous white marbled kitchen with an island to eat at, a little off to the dinning area there stood a glass door that led to a porch that looked over the ocean, there was a little swing facing the view. That would be a perfect place to spend an evening with Alan, soaking in the picturesque scenery  as we cuddled and lightly swung back and forth. Smiling at my thought I left the kitchen and Headed into the living area where there was a little white leather love seat sat in front of a fireplace with a radio on the mantle. Again the back of the room was a massive glass door that led out over to a balcony that stood over a slight cliff at the back of the house, there was a Jacuzzi off to the right and a fire pit off to the left. This, I thought to myself, is a dream.

Walking back into the living area there was another hallway leading to the bedroom. Opening the door I gasped at the sight before me. A four poster bed lay in front of me with gleaming white sheets perfectly made with not a single crease to be seen. A little wicker chest sat at the end of the bed which added to the beauty of the room. There was an on-suite bathroom to the right of the bed and to the left a clear wall so that at night we could watch the waves come crashing in.  What a romantic view. I fell in love with this room quickly and just ended up staring out at the sea.

Two arms snaked beneath mine and hugged me around my torso, squeezing lightly as not to hurt me. I smiled at him in the reflection of the glass. His smile was as wide as mine and he lent his head on my shoulder in a loving way.

"Thoughts?" Was all that left his mouth as he lightly tickled my forearms.

"Perfection, absolute perfection. This is definitely a dream come true Alan. How on earth can a place like this exist? It's gorgeous and extremely modern and stunning." He just smiled at me and sat on the edge of the bed. I turned around and looked at him with such love. Never in this entire world would I have dreamed I would be where I am in life right in this very moment. I would have laughed in someones face if they would have told me I was going on a romantic get away with fricking Alan Rickman. I shook my head and headed for my suitcase. I had the urge to just go for a swim, no matter whatever Alan may have had planned or not, I need to be in the ocean. Pulling out my bikini I changed quickly in the bathroom and took a towel on my way out. Alan smiled at me as I took out my sandles and headed for the front door to take the stairs down the side of the building to get to our own little private beach. 

"I will be down soon, I just have to check over a few things and I will join you for a swim my love." He kissed me on the head, I shut the front door and meandered down to the beach being careful of my stepping as I took the slightly steep staircase to the soft white sand. 

Dropping my towel just off the shore I jogged into the ocean, being a little cautious as if expecting it to be freezing like it always is in England, but to my complete and utter surprise, the sea was as warm as a freshly run bath. I smiled and dove right in, letting the warm water soak my hair and push against me as I swam a little way out. I resurfaced for air, smiling and flicking my hair out of my face. ' This is the life.' I laughed, I haven't had this much fun in quite a long time. I lent backwards and fell letting the water catch me. The mix of a scorching sun and a refreshing dip in the water filled me with such joy, the little things in life are what matter most and in this current moment in time, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
