Spring Break 2003

Spring Semester 2003
Faith and Bill are freshman

To say that the love is gone would be an understatement. Faith and Bill were going through the motions. Since they purchased thier spring break package the first week of school, they didn't foresee that they wouldn't be in love with each other any more. It didn't matter, a week in Pirate Cove had the tendency to make all things better. The first day, Faith and Bill did what they do best before exploring the cove.

Bill decided to relax by the large ship. His thoughts turned to Alison and Faith. He knew that his relationship with Faith was over...he was waiting for it to end. They seem to have an unspoken agreement that after Pirate Cove, it would officially be over.

Tired of tossing the thought around his head, Bill jumped in the ocean for a swim.

When Faith saw him coming, she swam out. Obviously she wasn't avoiding him, she couldn't do that since they were sharing a room, but she wanted some time alone.

Returning to the boardwalk, Faith ran into a familar sim. "Professor Scampal! What are you doing here? Why are you wearing that suit, aren't you hot?"

"Even professors need vacations too."

"Are you enjoying yourself?"

"I am, thank you for asking. What about you? Are you having fun?"

"Yea..."

"You don't sound as though you're enjoying yourself."

"Things are weird bewteen my boyfriend and I."

"Ah, I understand. My wife and I are having some problems as well."

"But you're still with her."

"Yes, but remember, sometimes staying with a sim out of comfort isn't the wisest decision one can make."

While Faith was having deep discussions about love and relationships with her music therory professor, Bill had made a new friend in Lotus. She was a native and a very beautiful one at that. Bill didn't mind that she was bossy or brash. As soon as he stared into those deep brown eyes of hers he was hooked.

Dusk came quickly and Bill escorted Lotus to his hotel room. Faith wasn't around and he knew he only had moments with Lotus before she returned. Thankfully, she didn't take much convincing.

Meanwhile, Faith was enjoying dinner alone when the server placed a large fruity drink and note on her table.

Beautiful One, would you like to meet tomorrow for breakfast? If so, show up here tomorrow morning.

The next morning, Faith showed up and met A'kahil.

"I hope I wasn't too bold," he explained. "I saw your beauty and was amazed."

Faith couldn't help buy grin at the cheesy line. Hey, she liked cheese.

Breakfast was spent discussing his job as a fire dancer and her dreams of being a famous violinist. It wasn't love at first sight, it really wasn't even love, but it was enough of a fling for Faith.

All too soon, it was time for the couple to leave. As they waited for the airport shuttle to arrive, they turned to each other. Both knew what the other would say and instead of wasting words, a very simple smile and promise to be friends was exchanged with a hug.
