After some time of sitting in the water, Christian and I loosened up, conversation wise that is. We pretty much talked about the general topics discussed during our first conversation.
But we remained static where we were. There were no hugs, kisses or other display of affections. Smiles and laughter were expressed more as a relief that this moment finally happened.
Also, his buddy was sitting on the boat so, although he was looking away, I couldn’t help but feel intimidated.
Yeah, I did want to show my joy in some way, but something inside of me told me not to. I can’t explain what it was, but I knew it would have been a bad move, especially after my past experiences with other men, plus all the complications I’ve had with this guy to get to this moment.
But as for today, I decided to just enjoy the moment for what it was.
Yep, I guess what we want the most sometimes takes the hardest work. But, did it have to be this complicated? Ah, whatever…
I’m relaxed and still talking to Christian when a ‘higher power’ interrupts the afternoon. I felt a strong wind moving towards us, the sun fading to gray, and the water getting cold.
I looked to the horizon and…what is that? Is that a storm??
No. No! This can’t be happening!!
