He surprised me by grabbing my shoulders and placing his head on a side.
Clearly, the bikini trick had done its work.

Mike: I’m sorry, that was rude.
Damn straight!

Me: Its okay. Really.
Mike: Well, it that case…
He took my coconut and threw it onto shore suddenly.
Me: Hey!

But then he picked me up and I didn’t want to protest. Mike started for the sea, laughing when my hands braced his face. He dumped me into the water and laughed some more.

Me: I’ll get you back for that!

Luckily, it was swallow, so I didn’t have to explain how I’m not the best swimmer. I splashed him in the face and he returned the gesture with a bigger one. We continued to splash and play around as if we weren’t stuck on an island. It seemed as if we were on the beach back home, two friends just having fun on the coast.

So much for that.
