The Educator

I wake up and a couple of hours later, we’re in the middle of the ocean. I could faintly see the coastline still so it means that we have not gone too far. I see Elliot laying and his back to me. He was sound asleep. I look out the window and I see the ocean so blue. It’s making me want to dive in take a dip even under this heat. I stand and look around the small cabin of the yacht. It did not resonate a fancy cabin. It was more of having a cozy feel to the person or people staying there. There is a small bathroom at the end, complete with a shower too. I look myself in the mirror and I notice a little weight gain. Damn, my friends were not joking. I extended out my chin to see how my face would look slim and then I pressed my chin to my neck and I could see the amount of fat that garnered during my stay here in Thailand.

I hear someone walk across the room. I see Elliot’s reflection behind me. He comes closer and wraps his arms around my waist from behind. He places his chin on the crook of my neck and lands a soft kiss. I close my eyes and breathe in deeply, the smell of saltwater creeping in the deeper I breathe.

“What do you want for lunch?” he asks me. I turn around and wrap my hands around his neck.

“I might want something like … this?” I tip my toes and kiss his neck lightly. I hear him let out a heavy breath.

“Just this?” he asks. He places both hands on my face and pulls it for a kiss. I pull myself up for a deeper kiss. He glides his palms down to my back side to pull me much closer if there was anymore space left. He kisses me, tilts my head to the side to get a better angle. I feel his tongue sliding across my lips before he slides his tongue in my mouth. I feel something hot in between me, something hot.

Suddenly, there is a knock on the door, “Sir?”

Elliot and I suddenly pull away from one another. He clears his throat before he answers, “Yes?”

“Sir the crew would like to know what you and Mrs. Smith would like for lunch so that we could get the grill started” one of the kitchen crew said behind the closed door.
