Chapter 22

One month later...

"Isn't this great, Crys?" Nick asked, looking out at the ocean on the boat he had bought. They had decided to live on the boat, and travel to anywhere they could go. They were en route to wherever the boat took them. It was on automatic pilot.

"Yes, Nick. This is perfect," Crystal replied, smiling at Nick, who was lying next to her on the blanket-covered floor.

"No more worries...about anything. It's great," Nick repeated. He leaned over, and kissed Crystal gently on the mouth.

"I love you so much, baby. I don't know what I'd do without you," Nick whispered.

"I love you too, Nick," Crystal responded, caressing Nick's cheek.

"You're the most special person in my life. I love you now, and I'll always love you, Nick. No matter what. Please don't ever leave me," she said.

"Oh, sweetie, you know I'd never leave you. We're here now, together, on our own, doing whatever we want. Life's perfect here with you. You're perfect." Nick leaned down again, this time kissing her more deeply, his tongue gently entering her mouth. Crystal moaned softly. Nick pulled back, and placed his lips on her neck, suckling gently. She put her arms around him, pulling him on top of her.

Nick ran his hands over her sides, pulling her shirt up with it, then pulling it over her head and tossing it to the floor of the boat. He went back to her neck, placing small kisses, and trailing up back to her mouth.

An hour later, she lay there with Nick, his head on her chest, her hands stroking his hair. She stared up at the bright blue sky, and knew that everything was going to be all right.
