Fossegrim's Love. (Original)

First Date.

April 30th, 2017

The couple were currently on the ferry boat that would be taking them to one of Paige's favorite places in Sweden, the Örskär Lighthouse.

Fossegrim stood on the railing of the boat holding on to the flag pole next to him. He was holding on to a pair of binoculars looking at everything surrounding them. His black long sleeve caught an updraft and blew it over his head and caused him to almost fall off the ferry until he regained his balance. Embarrassed he got down from the railing and went back to Paige. The wind caused her white sundress to blow in the wind giving her an ethereal look; as he approached her he put his arms around hers; the heat that radiated from her black jacket made him shrink closer to her.

The couple started walking around the boat mingling with the other passengers while Paige continued snapping photos on her phone of passing boats, birds, herself, clouds, Fossegrim, and the city and forest outlines.

Finally they arrived at their destination. When they got off the ferry the two immediately went towards the lighthouse. Paige got out her Polaroid camera and snapped a picture of Fossegrim as he was leaning his back against a wooden fence. She took the photo from the camera and showed it to him as he put his arm around her.

Two hours later after going up into the lighthouse and taking pictures at the shore line Fossegrim started noticing that Paige kept looking at a group of men anxiously and started holding onto his arm tighter.

"What's wrong?"

"Those men, there's something off about them, they keep staring at me and whispering something after they think I'm no longer staring at them."

Fossegrim used his hair as a blind and watched the men as they continued to look over at them. Every so often the men would stop walking around and just stand facing them all the while talking amongst themselves while still looking at Paige.

"We're going now love."
He guided Paige back to the ferry and as they were walking back to to the dock he looked over his shoulder and could see the men following slowly behind. Paige looked behind he as well and spotted a member of the Swedish police and ran from Fossegrim's arm to the officer and pointed at the men and he turned towards the direction she was pointing and quickly walked to them. The men saw him coming and nonchalantly waved at him and approached.

Fossegrim walked quickly to her and pulled her to his side and rushed her back to the dock as he looked over his shoulder. The two men were continuing to smile and chat up the officer as the left the island's dock on the ferry.

'How's that for a first date.' Fossegrim grimly thought as he rubbed Paige's back. He could feel how worried she was about this incident.

"I don't know why this idea popped in my head but, I think my dad sent those people." As Paige slowly turned her head to him.

"We need to talk Foss."
