Love of My Life

Paradise

Delayed gratification. The worst combination of words in any language.

I looked at the view from the small window of the chartered plane  and I was mesmerized by the bluest water of the Indian Ocean.

I heard the pilot announcing that we will be landing  in Maldives in about an hour.

It's been a little more than a month since I've seen Taehyung in person.  It's been torture hearing his voice and seeing his face on screen but not being able to hold him.

When the plane finally landed and I got cleared by customs, I headed straight to the docks to take a private boat to the resort.

Once the boat docked, the staff welcomed me and ushered me to a private bungalow built above the clearest blue water I've ever seen. I walked a good distance on wooden planks stretching from the beach to the entrance of our accommodation. 

Taehyung did well choosing this island resort as it provides ultimate luxury and privacy.

While waiting for him, I decided to give myself a tour of the place. The bungalow suite has 1 master bedroom and a guest room both connected to a patio with a full view of the Arabic Sea. Each bedroom has an attached bathroom with floor to ceiling glass and the same breath-taking view. Moreover, it has a small kitchen and a spacious sitting room that opens up to a patio and to an infinity pool.

This is paradise. I literally feel that the bungalow is floating on water. The view from every room of the house is surreal.

I unpacked my belongings and organized them in the closet of the guest room. I examined each swimsuit I brought and carefully placed them in the most accessible drawer. Jenny gave me a simple black one-piece from Chanel. Jisoo gave me a two-piece brown classic plaid bikini from Burberry . Lisa gave me a Norman Kamali one-piece snake mesh in white. I also packed a yellow and pink animal print two-piece from YSL, a long sleeve houndstooth one piece, and a black lace bodysuit from YSL.

This insignificant task of organizing my clothes allowed me to relax  a bit and not dwell so much on my expectations for this trip.

I took a fresh fruit bowl and a chilled wine by the pool. I changed and put on the the snake mesh one-piece suit that was given to me by Lisa. I paired it with a chloe aviator sunglasses in rose gold. I feel a bit less uneasy.

I took a dip in the warm pool and just enjoyed the impressive view in front of me. I closed my eyes momentarily, while I floated on warm water.

"Whatever it is you're wearing should be deemed illegal."

I opened my eyes and saw Taehyung leaning on the frame separating the living room and patio, arms crossed while watching me like a predator. His gaze shot a jolt of electricity to my wet body.

I decided to swim to the shallow part of the pool  to greet Taehyung properly.

"Stop. Don't come any closer or I won't be responsible for what I'm about to do."

Of course,  I didn't listen and continued to walk towards him slowly and deliberately with a tempting smile.

I watch Taehyung licked his lips with his tongue  while his eyes never left mine. Fire was coming out of his eyes.  He unbuttoned his white linen shirt, leaving me with a clear view of his rock hard chest and abs. I remember that he always looked good but he is more chiseled and slim today.

I reached Taehyung and he caressed my cheek with his thumb softly. He looked at me with definite lust. He kissed me like I'm the last water droplet during a long drought.  His hand still on my cheek and his other arm holding my waist.  Instinctively, I supported my legs by putting my hand on his chest.

Taehyung started nibbling my lips while uttering in between. "I . . . came here . . .with . . . no . . intention . . . of sleeping  with . . . you. But, to hell with . . . good intentions!"

Taehyung picked me up and carried me to the master bedroom.

The sun is about to set on the horizon and the ocean is a canvas of blue, purple, and orange hue. The colorful sky is the only witness on what is about to occur.

Taehyung carefully placed me on the center of the bed.

He has no intention of stopping.

I don't want him to.

I put my arm around his neck and reciprocated his kisses . . .
