Jones<br/><strong>Role:</strong>Boyfriend<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Nearest island with a decent-sized airport -> floatplane heading for the family island<br/><strong>Tagged:</strong>Alexis<br/><hr/><br/>The tropical heat hit Edward with a blast. He was certainly glad that he had worn sunglasses and sunscreen.<strong>"This is my first time this far south."</strong>He observed to Alexis.<strong>"I am looking forward to enjoying all the sun and the sea, and, I must admit,"</strong>a slight blush crossed his face.<strong>"The sight of you in a bathing suit. You are an incredibly beautiful girl, after all."</strong>The rest of the trip to the float-plane, he talked idly in a similar fashion, speculating about the weather, and musing on the history of the island they were leaving. Those who did not know Edward thought him shy and quiet, but around Alexis he was generally quite chatty.<br/><br/>He had long ago noticed that Alexis seemed rather nervous, or was it apprehensive? Either way, she seemed worried about introducing him to her parents. He understood that feeling. He had been worried about introducing her to his own father, a stern widower raising ten children alone after his wife's untimely death in a car accident nine years ago. He definitely did not want his father to know that he had been sleeping with her. That would have scandalized the old man something fierce. So her worries about introducing him to her parents were something he could relate to. Then again, she had mentioned something about her parents being libertines, whatever that meant, and so they probably would not be too hard on the boy having sex with their grown daughter, especially because his intentions were nothing but noble. So, there really was not anything to worry about. He could handle her family. It was not like they were nudists or swingers or something bizarre like that. So, smiling, he squeezed his arm affectionately around Alexis for a moment.<strong>"I love you too, no matter how crazy your parents are."</strong>
