the boat. I was doomed. My only hope was to get Alejandro’s attention. I stood up in the boat and screamed as loud as I could. I waved frantically. I yelled for several minutes. I was in tears. This was awful. There was no one else on the beach and he would be the only one that I could reach. I looked down at the water. I wasn’t the strongest swimmer but I could try. I had to try. I wouldn’t leave myself to drift out to sea. Just then I heard my name faintly over the ocean. I looked up to see Alejandro on the beach with binoculars. I stood up and waved and screamed and made sure I looked frantic. He threw the binoculars to the ground and ran to the house. What in the name was he doing? Then he ran back toward the water. He had a paddle on a rope looped around across his body. He ran into the water and dove in. He swam fast and hard. It was his Navy Seal training kicking in. It was impressive to watch. I couldn’t believe what was happening before my eyes. I was suddenly one of his operations. I was the one being rescued. My adrenaline pumped through my body as I watched him stroke through the choppy water. His form was perfect and his body moved with grace and ease through the ocean. I was so impressed.
In no time at all he had reached me and was climbing up the side of the boat.
“I’m so sorry Alejandro! I’m so scared and I didn’t know I had drifted. There’s no paddle in here and…”
“It’s okay, I got you,” he said breathless as he grabbed the rope from around his body. He grabbed the paddle and handed it to me. I put it down on the floorboard. Then with one swift movement he hoisted himself into the boat. Alejandro immediately, came to me. Hugged me and rubbed my back.
“Elaine, my Elaine. Are you okay? Are you hurt?”
“I’m okay,” I said as I started to cry. He hugged me tighter.
“Oh my Elaine, I can’t live with out you. My stomach, it hurts. I’m glad I saw you before too late. Would break my heart with out you”.
He kissed me aggressively. As though he had lost me and now had me back. Then he let go and grabbed the paddle and began to paddle back to the shore. His shoulders were strong and with each movement I could see his muscles ripple. It was intoxicating to watch him be a Navy Seal in action. He was a real man. Here was a man that had rescued me from certain death. This is a man that, with out hesitation, dove into the ocean risking his own life to save mine. He was focused on getting us back to shore, and it was exhilarating to watch it. Nothing made more feminine like I did now. It was such a change from the bookish hard journalism woman I had been only a few weeks ago. This man took care of me. He rescued me from a life of mediocrity and now he rescued me from death. I owed him everything. Yet he made me feel like I owed him nothing. It was his pleasure to do these things for me. It’s what he wanted to do. I was in awe of him. I felt more bonded to him now than I had with anyone ever in my life.
Finally we were in a few feet of water. He jumped out and dragged the boat the rest of the way onto the shore. When we were on sand he reached his hands up to me and carried me out of the boat. Now that his rescue was over he could give me his full attention.
“You sure you are not hurt?”
“Yes, I am fine really. I feel so stupid.”
“Water, lets get you some water.”
He put one arm around my back and escorted me up the beach and back to the house. He gave me a large jug of water and told me to drink it in small sips until it was gone. He wrapped me in a towel a pulled fresh aloe very stems from a plant outside. He rubbed it on my sunburned face and shoulders. All the while he was lecturing me in Spanish about not falling asleep in a boat that is not tied. When he was done nursing me, he looked at me and let out a big sigh and said,
“Elaine, don’t ever do that to me again. I love you so much Elaine. I do. I know that now. I didn’t think at all when I saw you
