Cicilia's POV:
"Welcome to Maldives, darling."
Maldives! Can you believe it, I was in Maldives, it has so many beautiful beaches, whoah!
The air was warm, the sun was shining brightly, everything was just perfect!
I squealed in happiness and threw my hands around his neck and hugged him.
"Thank you, thank you so much, I always wanted to come here", I exclaimed pulling apart from him.
"You are welcome darling", he said smiling widely at my enthusiasm.
He then held my hand before guiding me down the stairs and towards the car that was parked there for us.
Slipping into the backseat, he wrapped his hands around my shoulder before the car started moving through the roads of Maldives.
I was looking out of the window and I could see a beach in the distance.
After half an hour the car stopped and on the right side of us was the beach!
Are we directly going there?
Seb gestured me to come out as he wore sunglasses and I followed him to the beach and we walked beside each other along the ocean.
And to my surprise the beach was empty, there was not a single person there.
I had no idea where we were going but I kept quiet and walked with him, enjoying the view.
After walking for ten minutes, I felt tired completely as I stopped abruptly and sat down on the sand.
"I am tired Seb", I whined, "I can't walk anymore. Where are we going and when will we reach there?"
"It's a surprise too darling, though we could reach there by car but I thought that you would like to take a walk on the beach", he said.
"It was fun at first but now I am extremely tired. Now, you going to pick me up and walk till there", I demanded at which he chuckled deeply before bending down and picking me up in bridal style and continued walking.
I was surprised that he is actually carrying me because I was just kidding but let it be...I like being carried by him.
As he walked, instead of looking at the sea beside us I was busy staring at him. He looked like a Greek God with those sunglasses and it was still hard to believe that this Greek God was now my husband, he was mine.
I leaned in and placed a kiss at his neck which made him stop as he looked down at me and I gave him a shy smile.
He smiled back before he continued walking.
After around five to seven minutes he stopped in front of a two-storey cottage with the beach right in front of it.
He gently placed me down on my feet.
"Are we... staying here?", I asked in surprise hoping he would say yes.
"Yes darling, we are staying here. This is my cottage and this area of the beach is also owned by me."
"No one will be able to disturb us here", he added.
"Yes!", I exclaimed, "thank you Seb."
He placed his arm on my lower back before guiding me towards up the 3-4 steps to the door of the cottage.
He took out a key before inserting it in the lock and opening the door.
The interior was so warm and cosy, it felt just like home.
"How come this is so cleaned?", I questioned him.
"It gets cleaned once in two weeks and especially when I have to come."
After checking out the living room and the kitchen I followed him upstairs to the master bedroom, it was beautiful but the main thing that caught my attention was the balcony because the view from there was awesome as the sun rays shined over the blue sea making it glitter.
I was standing at the balcony with my hands resting on the railing as Seb came and stood beside me silently.
"So, for how long are we here?", I asked breaking the silence.
"Four days including today...sorry but we can't stay here any further because I have some important work back home", he said sadly and that made me sad too because I wanted to stay more here but let it be...Angela needs me too.
I placed a hand on his shoulder and said, "It's ok Seb, by the way, Angela is also waiting for us back home."
He pulled me closer by my waist and placed a kiss on my forehead.
"Take rest, for now, we will go to the beach in the evening", he said and I nodded before going inside and after getting fresh, I laid down on the bed as sleep soon took over me.
I woke up in the evening, the sun was not shining brightly anymore instead there was a faint ray of it.
I moved out of the room and searched for Seb and at last, I came across a room, the door of which was slightly opened and I peeked inside to see him working on his laptop, a desk was in the centre and the files were scattered around it. It looked like a study.
I opened the door and walked in and on seeing me he gave me a tired smile as he stretched his arms, leaning back in the chair.
I stood near him as he said, "You want something?"
I sat on his lap as he wrapped his arm around my waist and I leaned my head on his chest.
"Why didn't you rest Seb?"
"Work, darling. I had a meeting over a video call and it just ended a few minutes ago."
"Can't you forget about your work for a few days and enjoy your time in this heaven", I complained.
"It sure is heaven but I have been here before also so, that's why. But if you want then I can definitely spend some time with my Goddess", I blushed when he called me 'Goddess'.
"What do you wanna do, darling?", He asked.
"Um...beach, let's go to the beach."
"Ok, meet me at the door in five minutes", he said before I got up and he left the study.
I went to the room and opened the suitcase that was packed for me to search for a swimsuit and there was not a single swimsuit...I mean a proper one, they were all bikinis.
There was nothing that I could do about it so I chose a bikini and wore it and covered myself with a robe.
With that, I walked towards the door to see Seb only in his boxers and he looked so hot, I was literally blushing.
He grabbed my hand we walked out of the door, on the beach.
"You wanna swim?", He asked me.
"Well...I actually have a bit of hydrophobia, I think I would be fine at the edge of the water."
"You don't know how to swim?" And I shook my head.
"Come on, I will teach you how to swim, it's really easy", he said grabbing my arm and started dragging me towards the water.
"No, no, I don't want to learn it, I am fine", I protested.
"You made me leave my work now, it is my turn, so, you have to listen to me now", he smirked.
Feeling defeated, I started walking towards the water slowly with him beside me.
I gripped his biceps before walking into the shallow water.
"Remove your robe, Cicilia", he said and I remembered that I was still wearing it.
I removed my robe and threw it on the sand and on seeing me Seb's eyes turned a shade darker.
He was intensely staring at me and I started to feel a bit uncomfortable as he eyed me from head to toe.
I made an effort to cover myself with my arms but he stopped me as he stood in front of me, staring directly in my eyes.
He then brushed the tip of his nose against my cheeks down to the base of my neck and then back up as his lips lingered near my earlobe.
"Forget about swimming, I have a much better idea in my mind to do right now", he whispered huskily making me shiver as his words registered in my mind.
His hands gripped my waist tightly as he trailed kisses down my neck.
My mind was a mess because of his actions and I wasn't able to think straight.
And in a swift moment, his lips met mine, as our lips moulded in an urgent and a passionate kiss making the butterflies to explode in my stomach.
I rested my hands over his shoulder as he continued to kiss the hell out of me.
After a few minutes, he pulled apart and buried his nose in the crook of my neck as he whispered softly, "You drive me crazy, Cicilia." And his actions were enough to justify that statement.
"Um... swimming...we wer-e about to swim", I shuttered because my mind was still not working properly.
He pulled away and pouted at me before saying, "You didn't want to swim right, we can go back and conti--"
I placed my finger over his lips to shut him and then once again grabbed onto his biceps before dragging him into the water along with me.
"I don't wanna go any further", I told him as I started to feel that the water was getting deeper with every step we were taking.
He agreed and then he continued to teach me how to swim, he taught me the basics for the next half an hour after which I was extremely tired so, we decided to head back.
He again picked me up(bridal style) before going back to the cottage.
