Navi had bounced like a little girl during the entire trip. She'd actually really liked the airplane - how interesting, landbound creatures reinventing flight! - and she was all but glued to the windows of the car as they drove to the villa.
"I wonder why the sand''s so white! Look! Palm trees!" Navi felt like a little girl, and she hadn't even gotten to be alone with Alec yet. Two weeks with her boyfriend was a heady possiblity, and she was planning on indulging in every possible delight with him, be it swimming in the warm ocean water, or dancing on the beach, or just cuddling in bed.
Then the villa came into view. It was a gorgeous house - nothing too expansive or lush, but it was still a gorgeously well taken care of house that they were going to stay in for two weeks. For once in her life, Navi was at a loss for words, her jaw just dropping.
