Hey guys.. been having a writers block lately. Wrote this over the last couple weeks. Don't know how good it is. Includes some personal stuff that has been going on lately. Hope you'll like it. :)
I needed to take a step back and breathe just to tell myself I wasn't dreaming. I had come down to LA with Dimple and Deesha to do a summer course in film making, and we chose LA for obvious reasons. But the summer wasn't quite turning out what i was expecting it to be. I imagined to be working and studying a few hours in the day and then spending the rest of the time with my friends, their boyfriends and Justin… but summer school was much tougher than i expected. i barely got anytime to spend with my friends or Justin. Since we hadn't rented an apartment and were staying with the boys, the only time i got to spend with him was at dinner, when i had to put my laptop down and eat, and by the time i went to bed he was already fast asleep. So, when we finally got a weekend off i was so excited to just be with him and relax, but Justin being the over the top romantic that he is, was ecstatic when he found out about my weekend and planned something for all the 6 of us a week in advance. He was taking us to his holiday home in Bahamas which i happened to find about a day before we were actually supposed to leave when i caught him packing my bag and thus ruining his surprise.
"Justin, what are you doing with my clothes?!" i exclaimed. All i saw was a bag, a few of my bras lying around and justin holding up a pair of green shorts and an orange top trying to pair it up.
"Do you think this will go with this?" he asked innocently. "Absolutely not. would you wear green and orange together?" I walked over to him to see what other awful outfits he had put together. "Yea, you're right. Can you please pack upur bag for 3 days? I begged dimple and deesha but they didn't agree, so please help me out, as you can see I'm doing terribly." He said with a small pout forming on his face. "Awww ok, well maybe with the clothes it was terrible but i see that you matched my bras and undies pretty well, maybe even better than i do" i said smiling. "Hahahaha, thats cause i know what i want to see you in." he winked at me and kissed me on the cheek. I started packing my bag, "So where are we going?" i finally asked him. "I shall give u 3 clues: beach, starts with b, my favourite place in the world" excitement and anticipation coloured his face. "oh my god, oh my god. Justin, please tell me its Bahamas?!" i said holding his arm for support and really trying hard to breathe. "YES!" he said laughing.. "best boyfriend everrrrr. oh my god oh my god" i started jumping up and down. "When do we leave?" i finally controlled my excitement. "In 2 hours" he replied taking out a bag for himself and putting his clothes inside. "And you tell me this now?! How am i supposed to pack my bag in that much time?" i screamt. the next two hours i spent running around the house gathering everything i needed and jumping occasionally cause i was so excited.
"Okay I'm finally done packing, gimme 5 mins, i just need to get ready and then we can leave." i kissed him on his cheek. "Whoa whoa, slow down, you don't need to get ready right now. you need to sleep, we have to wake up early tomorrow and be on the road!" he made me sit on the bed. "Then why would u tell me we were leaving in 2 hours, i would've packed better and maybe got sometime to breathe too?!" i looked at my hastily packed bag. "haha, thats cause i want you to go to sleep right now with me, so that u can be fresh tomorrow when we leave." He said stroking my cheeks. "Alright, I am pretty tired." i yawned. Justin went around the room tidying up, shutting the curtains, turning on the A/C and making the bed while i just started at him and brushed my teeth simultaneously. "Hey babe, are you done tidying up?" I asked Justin as i wiped my face dry with a napkin. "Yea.. why? do you need something?" He asked with concern. "Umm, could you carry me to bed, I'm so tired." I pouted and then smile. Without another word, Justin marched towards me, swept me off my feet and carried me to bed. He made me lie down on the bed, took off his shirt and lay down next to me. "This time tomorrow, we're going to be in the Bahamas. Wow, imagine that. you know, I've never been to the Bahamas. I'm so excited. Thank you so much for all this, I can never thank you enough." I said, cuddling up to him and resting my head on his bare chest. "Hey hey, you don't have to thank me, look at me." he said lifting my chin with his finger and then he just kissed me. It felt like i was kissing him after decades, and i had missed him too much. I didn't have a thought in my head about summer school and all i knew was that this moment right now, was exactly where i wanted to be. We said good night to each other and for the first time in the past month i went to sleep without any worries.
"Vrutika.. baby.. wake up.. we have to go.. come on." I heard a raspy voice in the midst of my sleep. "We're going to the Bahamas baby, lets go. We don't want tp be late now, do we?" The voice became louder and clearer…the word bahamas made me want to get up so i opened my eyes to see who it was, but the light was so powerful that i shut my eyes again.. 'Hey baby, i know you're up.. lets go.. wake up.' And now that sounded like Justin to me. I stretched in bed and finally sat, and this time tried to open my eyes slowly so that the light wouldn't blind me. "Looks like you slept pretty well. Good morning, sleepy head" he said and kissed my forehead. The next hour an hour we spent getting ready, smiling at each other, eating breakfast and then we finally left for the Bahamas.
"Bahamas baby! here we come!" Chaz exclaimed. I hugged dimple and asked her where Deesha was. We all finally sat in our cars and left for the Bahamas.
And so we set out.. Dimple and me hadn’t really been on good terms lately because of a lot of disagreements between us when we were put in the same group at film school. The boys were trying to fix it, but the day they did fix it, we’d get a new project and we’d fight about a new thing.
“I hope it isn’t very awkward in Bahamas, living with Dimple all the time with no school or work forcing us to.. You know?” I said to Justin, as i watched her talk to Chaz while he loaded the luggage in the car.
“Babe, its Dimple you’re talking about. She’s your best friend. You guys just need to put your egos aside and talk it out..” He said, stroking my cheek.
“I don’t know. I love her… but she’s the most annoying and egoistic person I’ve met in my life.” I said wrapping my arms around Justin and digging my face in his chest.
“Ok look, I’ve planned this trip after going through a lot of pain, and I’m not going to let women rivalry get in the way. And I’m certainly not ok with you being upset and bothered by such a lame issue. So chin up, let me see that smile and tell me that you’re just as estatic to go as I am.”
“Ofcourse I am. Like that’s even a thing to ask.” and we got into Justin’s car and drove towards the airport.”
Bahamas.
As we stepped out of the airport, a warm breeze of air greeted us. There’s just something awesome about the air that hits you when you go outdoors. It’ll never compare to an ordinary air conditioner. Big roads, a ton of convertibles of all sorts of colours, and a whole lot of palm trees and a pinkish orange sunset in the background.
“Welcome to the Bahamas Mr.Bieber… This way please” said a man who greeted us and shook Justin’s hand and was leading us to some place i didnt know about.
“When you see this you will flip” Justin said as he kissed me in my hair. He hadn’t let go of me since we had got off that plane. He either held my hand, or put his hand around my waist like he was doing now.
The guy stopped in front of 3 convertibles. “NO… you did not book us convertibles. Omg, I think I’m going to cry out of happiness!” Ryan cried.
“Haha, need to make my girl happy. Which one do you want babe?” He said looking at me with all the love somehow fitting into his beautiful brown eyes.
“The pink one. I’ve always wanted that one!” I exclaimed.
“Alright then. See you’ll at the place. Adios!”
Justin drove the mustang as if he drove one everyday. He had his glasses on and so did I… My hair was flying in the wind and tangling all over the place, but i didnt care. Bahamas was beautiful. The endless stretch of sea that i could see. People casually walking around in bikinis and swim suits, carrying surf boards or drinking beer on the street. It looked like one big party here, and everyone seemed to have lost their shirts.
The smell of the place just reminded me of summer. The cute little shacks and restaurants that we saw on the way, I made a mental note to eat in all the ones that i find to be interesting.
I had barely even entered and i was already loving this place.
