As was his norm when traveling Jeremiah woke by the clock, not by the amount of time he actually slept.  So, it was just after sunrise when he took his first steps onto the balcony, in time to watch as the Hawaiian sun rose above the hills of the Eva side of the isle.  He contemplated going down for an early breakfast, but opted to wait till after eight when others would be stirring around more, and thereby get to see more of the lovely sights the resort hotel had to offer, though he could barely think of any other than the wondrous lady next door, a challenge to be dealt with at first opportunity if the degree of his attraction had anything to do with it.<br/><br/>He showered and made himself ready for the day and finished just after 8 am local time before walking to the door and patting the adjoining door with a lighthearted chuckle stemming from his devious thoughts in her regard.  It had been a long time since he had been attracted to anyone in this degree, and he felt all-be-it giddy.  He walked to the poolside café and found a table for two that was open and ordered coffee and a two egg omelet from the pert waitress. As he sat and waited he heard a familiar voice and looked up to see his new neighbor standing beside him asking if he minded if she joined him for breakfast.  More of a dream come true could not have been hoped for.<br/><br/>He rose from his chair and pulled out the chair next to his own for her to sit down.  He sat back down, and they both started to talk at the same time.  "Did you rest well?"  As he chuckled at the shared query he began again and seemingly in harmony their voices echoed each other’s with “Isn’t this just the most beautiful place?”<br/><br/>They laughed together at their shared thoughts, just as the waitress brought his food.  He asked if it could be kept warm, until Marti's order had been taken and prepared, so they could eat together.  The waitress nodded politely and with a gaze in her direction the waitress asked what she would care for.  He sat quietly reflecting on the manner and beauty of his new found friend, and recalled just how the tale he had written the evening before went, and how much he hoped it would happen just like that.<br/>
