Water Glass

ZAC

I stare up at this beautiful woman standing next to me. In one moment she has taken away all my pain. If I ever felt like I wanted to be with this woman then this moment just confirmed everything to me.

How is it even possible that one woman can impress me and attract me at the same time? Everything within me wants to hold her hand and pull her closer to me. I want to show my appreciation to her in the best way that I know.

But I know that these damn rules do not allow me to. Then I watch her as she gives me that shy smile as if she does not deserve my praise but I know she deserves so much more.

"It is the least that I can do, Captain"

"What do you mean the least?"

Then she avoids my eye contact completely and says.

"For saving my life. You are in this pain because of me, sir"
