I laughed as Thanatos kept my eyes covered; his large hands big enough to nearly cover my entire face. I shook my head slightly to get him to budge, but his hips forced forward to my back, telling me to quit my antics.
"Can I look now?" I moaned and tugged at his hands.
Thanatos chuckled, his excitement almost more than mine; "Try and guess where we are. Three tries!"
"And if I win?" I pursed my lips, sniffing at the fresh air. I could taste the salt water and feel the humidity on my skin.
"You get a present."
"Compelling..." My dry remark earned me a bite on the earlobe and a flick of the tongue; "Guess woman."
"Alright, alright..." I hummed in thought and bit down onto my bottom lip in concentration; "Greece?"
"No." Thanatos' smile was blatantly obvious in his voice.
"Um... Croatia?"

"I don't know!" I giggled; "Thailand!"
"No present for you." Thanatos sighed in fake regret, "Such a shame. Oh well. Better luck next time."
"You idiot!" I laughed and tugged at his hands again, my excitement too much too bare; "Let go so I can see where the hell-" He dropped his palms from my eyes.
The sharp intake of breath left me speechless- that, and the view.
Thanatos leaned in to whisper in my ear, his hands stroking down my upper arms; "Welcome to Bora Bora, my Rora..."
