"Mmm.." I shifted tiredly in my bed, running a hand along the vanilla-scented satin sheets in search of him, but he was not there.. I opened my weary eyes only to immediately shield them from the blinding rays of the mid-morning sun as they shone through the straw blinds of his beach cabin. My lips curled up into a self-satisfied grin. He had finally brought me there, his own private getaway. He had whisked me, of all women, away, to celebrate his recent success.. but where is he..? My smile quickly faded as I wistfully waited for him to return. One side of me feared that he had only brought me there to use me and that he wouldn't come back for me. The other side, however, was a more optimistic, and expected him to surprise me then carry me away in his strong arms to the ocean side. The salty scent of the ocean entered the room when a small breeze blew in. I could hear the waves through the window and doorway as they rode up onto the sand. I turned over on my to back and the African 'geisha' themed kimono I wore came apart at my bosom, exposing just enough of my endowments to attract the eyes of any man. But there were none.

I rose and walked to the doorway, letting my long, bushy curls billow out around me as I peered out.

There you are......

He came back with an exquisite assortment of fruits and scones. They were perfectly plump and scrumptious. My stomach rumbled at the sight of them and I blushed. "Hey," he called out to me. "I brought you something." His voice was as soothing as the tranquil sounds of the beach, and his smile was beaming like the sun. And his eyes? Oh lord. He had eyes that were blue like the ocean. I swear, there must have been more women who've gotten lost in them than pilots and sea captains who've dis...

...e invaded. Soon I found myself at the eye of the storm, desperately reaching out into the vortex to try and stop it, but to no avail.

I zapped back into the real world as our amorous lip-lock came to a slow end with his lips dragging off of my own as he pulled back. God, I loved that. He uttered a couple things in that beautiful native tongue of his while his finger played with one of the straps of my bra, as if he were looking for permission to remove it; and who was I to deny such a perfect man? I smirked and chuckled lightly, playfully touching his lips with my pointy finger. "Javier, you have my full consent." I felt a bit sheepish being so easily submissive, but any defenses I had were already breached by his disarming charm. If he wanted to have me right then and there, he could have, and it wouldn't have been a thing that I could have said or done about it.

    Looking out across the stone-paved road, she watched the neighborhood inside the coffee colored fence. It was very similar to hers, containing multiple cookie-cutter homes and an assortment of businesses, except no one was there was her color and no one in her neighborhood was their color. All of them had chocolate skin with eyes and hair that were all equally dark. Across the road to her right, a yellow fence contained honey colored people. She enjoyed seeing all the little, squinted almond eyes, much smaller then her own, which were wide set and round. One little, sunshine colored boy with dark straight hair raised his arm and waved his hand, but before she could do the same back her father called her into the house. His lips were pressed and his body was rigid, the blue of his eyes making direct contact with her

  • Personal Narrative Essay: My Florida Experience In Florida

    The smell of the restaurants faded and the new, refreshing aroma of the sea salt in the air took over. The sun’s warmth on my skin and the constant breeze was a familiar feeling that I loved every single time we came to the beach. I remember the first time we came to the beach. I was only nine years old. The white sand amazed me because it looked like a wavy blanket of snow, but was misleading because it was scorching hot. The water shone green like an emerald, it was content. By this I mean that the waves were weak enough to stand through as they rushed over me. There was no sense of fear of being drug out to sea like a shipwrecked sailor. Knowing all this now I knew exactly how to approach the beach. Wear my sandals as long as I could and lay spread out my towel without hesitation. Then I’d jump in the water to coat myself in a moist protective layer before returning to my now slightly less hot towel. In the water it was a completely different world. While trying to avoid the occasional passing jellyfish, it was an experience of

  • Creative Writing: Immigrant To The Island

    I arrived at the islands just yesterday. I was a mess when I arrived; I reeked of horrible body odor. My clothes were soaked with salt water, and were as rigid as a board. I had sea sickness, too, so I spent most of the travel throwing up and having diarrhea. I wasn’t the worst, though; some others had fever, and had to be crammed inside a small compartment so none of the others would get sick. For the last couple months of the journey, though, I was emotionally beaten and depressed. I thought I might die out there, and never get to see you again. However, when we arrived at the islands, everything seemed to be perfectly pristine there. The islands were pure paradise, filled with sunshine and gentle waves. Considering that it was October,

He rose to his elbows and listened intently; it wasn’t loud, but it wasn’t soft, either. It was like a missed lover come home, calling to him, missing him. His thoughts flew to the girl that occupied his bed with him the night before, and called out her name.

    The chilly air and squishy bugs hit my face as I drove through the prairie. My four wheeler sputtered as I topped it out back in the country. Loud distracting barking of dogs as I zoomed by made it feel exhilarating because I imagined them as cheetahs chasing me like I was a zebra. The beautiful sunset shined on the beans and corn and was nearly blinding ,and the sand fought with my tires taking me side to side on the road. As I drove past a shiny chicken barn shimmering in the sun I saw a flock of eagles on a ripe manure pile looking over the fields for mice. The tall trees were swaying back and forth from the strong wind. Some clouds appeared aflame because the bright orange sunset contrasted with the dense purplish blue clouds giving

It appeared to be a motel with a diner around the side, I’d park toward the outskirts of the parameter so that I could keep the vehicle concealed. Stepping out I’d take another quick look around, there wasn’t anything that seemed out of the ordinary so I retrieved my lighter and lit the cigarette that was hanging loosely from my lips. The embers would glow a cherry neon red in the darkness, exhaling the smoke I pulled the hood of my jacket up over my head and began to move. Every movement was graceful, but every step had purpose behind it.

Touching the sand was like touching sugar. It felt smooth yet rough. As I strolled through the sand, and turned to look back, I could see a perfect imprint. The smells were intoxicating.

    I couldn’t find my voice, so I just nodded instead, my cheeks flushing red, his doing the same. When it became obvious to me that he wasn’t going to do anything else, I just went back to his French textbook that was sitting between us on the bed. As I reached for it, I felt two dry lips press against mine. I felt a shock go through my body, my eyes wide in surprise, but closing as I felt his long, soft eyelashes flutter against my cheeks gently. I turned my head to one side, feeling his fringe tickling my face as I deepened the kiss. He pulled back and let out a breath that he had been

  • Descriptive Writing About The Beach

    1183 Words  | 3 Pages

    Away from the immense sea, white foams from the waves gather gently onto the golden shore. Now, half of a glowing, radiant light looms across the water 's horizon. The sea turns blood-red and darkness creeps up like a thief. The necklace that once reflected its passionate energy of fury moments ago now resembled a mere costume jewellery. Perhaps the loss of the necklace’s elegance and sophistication was the reason to why it was disregarded. Pity the owner did not see the necklace radiating its splendour at its peak. Anyhow, the nightfall creates a sensation of joy and tranquillity in me. Every sight and sound stimulates a sense of composure and serenity; and the effect is heightened by the absence of the noisy bustle of our daily work, only to be exposed to the never-ending music of the waves, and to breathe the fresh air instead of the stale atmosphere of classrooms. It is not easy to describe the effect of this sight; it can only be strangely deciphered in my mind. It is however, a very tangible and distinct emotion, though its allure really depends upon the reality of the world from a further point of view, away from the definite predictabilities of the world, all in which an instant becomes like a translucent drape which almost consents me to catch a glimpse of a ideal and more breath-taking reality. The worldly desires, expectations, worries, schemes, suddenly cease to exist. It is as though all of

  • A Day at the Lake

    The grass was soft and green, reserved for those who wanted to lie down or sit. A sweet aroma of flowers overflowed near by like s shinning light, but was hidden by the untrimmed bushes and wildly growing trees. Up above me was the beautiful, high noon blue sky spotted with fluffy, white clouds and airplanes flying by. I emerged into the parking lot and stopped happily as a squirrel under a tree. Hesitating to proceed anywhere further I took a few minutes to treasure the moment of silence and peace. As my girlfriend and I got out of the car to get ready for the picnic, she happened to be distracted by the water; a rhythmic ongoing resemblance of rhythm in her heart. The water was clam and beautiful in every aspect. To me she was like a wave, never stooping to catch attention or go unnoticed. Before doing anything else, we began setting up the picnic. By the time we ware done, her temptation was unbearable and was finally unable to overcome it, consequently she eagerly ran towards the water pulling me right behind her. Each step was like an imprint in my heart, a fossil that would always remain the same and special inside me forever.
