The Island

Sree

"It's going to be a long trip, so you can sleep for some time", he said

" Ok.. Do I need to wear this dress,.. For so long? ", I asked

"I have the other clothes I got for you at the back, you can wear them. ", he said

" I'm not wearing them here, stop at some restaurant for coffee", I said

"Sure", he said

We stopped for coffee, where I changed into the top and jeans he had got, in the restroom.

Then we drove, somewhere and I slept for some time.. It was almost 4 30 by the time we reached some coastal place, it's definitely not banglore as banglore isn't coastal.

" A beach! ", I exclaimed.

Vikram didn't say anything.

We got down from the car and headed towards the beach.

" Thankfully I changed, the dress would have gotten spoilt in the sand and water", I said

A man came towards us

"Is it ready? ", Vikram asked him

" Yes, there the boat is there, ", he said

I followed Vikram and saw a small motor boat,

Vikram moved towards it and entered it.

He raised his hand towards me.

" Come on Sree", he said

I took his hand and entered the boat.

"Welcome aboard, Captain Vikram welcomes you and hope you have a good journey", he said

" Wait, you are going to drive this thing? ", I asked

" Of course, Sree, wouldn't want anyone to spoil our private moment, would I", he said

" The sea was brightly blue and beautiful and the wind blew in my face..

Vikram turned towards me..

"Ever wanted to kiss, in the middle of the sea? ", he asked

" What? , here? ", I asked

" Yes.. Here.. ", he said coming next to me..

" Then who will control the boat", I said

"Well it has to go straight for some time", he said

He touched my cheeks with his hands.. And moved my chin up and looked at me admiringly, till my lips parted..

He looked at my lips and moved towards them to kiss them gently..
The wind around us, blew at our skin.. His lips felt a little salty..
He moved away and looked at me again

" No matter how many times I do this, I feel that I could do it forever Sree ", he said..

" Look around, there is no one around us, just you me,.. The sea and the wind.. ", he said

" And the sky and boat", I said smiling

"Not bad, for a person who hated love and had zero experience in romance, you are quite romantic", I said

" If you have the girl who you love, and who is your life,.. In front of you.. You feel you can do anything for her,.. Anything to make her happy... Romance comes automatically then.. Doesn't it", he said

He moved forward and kissed me again, lingering on my lips, closing his eyes.. As if he was memorizing every second of this moment..

I understood what people meant when they said, they wanted time to stay still and freeze moments, if I could I would freeze that moment, because I felt a warmth in my heart, flutters in my stomach, .. Peace in my mind.. I felt happy like never before..
