You Are The Star Tonight 20 I REALLY CAN'

"Let's go to Morton island" Kian said with a smile face and his blue eyes were twinkling like the north star in the night.

Tara was so much into those blue eyes that she didn't even noticed what he said but just nodded.

After getting ready both of them looked like the sun and the sea meeting together during the sunrise, one so bright and one so lively they were just complementing each other.

After a ride of nearly seventy minutes they reached the Moreton island, the scenery there was so soothing that Tara stretched her hands in the air and inhaled the wet air, it was very enchanting. Kian was mesmerized by the beauty of that place too but he was more mesmerized by his girl, she looked so beautiful today just like a flower which have bloomed only for him.

Kian then slowly approached Tara and slowly whispered "Can we go our destination now".

"Huh!!! This was not our destination" Tara pouted adorably.

"Yeah it is but something more exciting is waiting for you...let's go now" he gently grabbed her hands and lead the way.

Tara was a bit taken aback his touch was somewhat different, it was able to generate electricity in her whole body, something she never experienced before.

After walking for ten minutes they were standing in front of a diving training institute.

Tara was a bit shocked she suddenly felt a slight fear in heart she was very afraid of water from her childhood only, she never ever tried to learn swimming also outside their house's pool where two trainers were always present for her but now Kian wanted her to directly swim in the sea. Her whole body stiffened noticing some change, Kian turned back only to she her face a slight pale, he immediately moved towards her.

"What happened Tara are you feeling unwell, is your again paining?" Kian was very worried.

"No I really can't do this Kian I am a bit afraid of water and and.... I just do it".Tara said with sad eyes.

"Have you ever tried this before?"

"No...but I know I can't"

"Listen Tara the more you will step back because of your fear the more they will bother you...you have never tried this before so why not try it today ...you are a person who have raised above every fear of yours so why not this also " Kian said with a smiling face.

"But...but" Tara was still not convinced.

"You believe me right?" Kian said with a gentle face.

"Yes..." Tara answered without even thinking, how can she believe her savior.

"Then believe me , nothing will happen to you... I will be there for you always and protect you...just believe me"

Tara was very moved by his words never ever in her whole life she have experienced something like this someone was ready to protect her against everything, she was the one who always took the tension of every matter she never shared her problems with anyone, she was really good in hiding her insecurities from the world but this person standing opposite to her was just breaking all the walls near her heart and was just entering her heart without any warning...this was not a good sign but what can she do about it, her heart was already betraying her.

"Okay... but promise me you won't leave me for once also" Tara said with a straight voice.

"Okay promise .. I won't leave you not in this lifetime" Kian said with a smile on his handsome face.

Tara was a bit taken aback, how can he promise something like that...just standing here he promised me that he won't leave me any day...is he real.

After learning the basics and precautions of diving bot of them changed into diving suits, their instructor was a middle aged man who looked very experienced.

Then the group of three got seated on the both to travel a distance from the beach

Then the time came when both of them have to dive into the water. Tara's hand was sweating profusely she looked totally horrified the water everywhere was giving her chills, all the bad thoughts were coming to her head, she just can't do it...at that very moment a warm hand grabbed her hand firmly as if saying that nothing will happen to her. She tightened her grip and looked towards that man's blue eyes they were so calm as if giving her a sense of security and relief. Then the countdown began

One...

Two...

Three...

And both of them just jumped into the waters holding each others hand. Tara was momentarily blanked out but immediately regained her sense. The view inside was so beautiful, the corals were just showing why they were called magistic and those tiny fishes of different color were so full of life. The whole sea was looking like a carnival of colors and life. Everything was so real and untouched by the world's miseries. Tara was really happy she had never seen something this much beautiful. On the other hand Kian was carefully observing her expression he was himself a bit afraid but when he saw his Sunshine shining brightly he also relaxed both them swim for a long time before coming back to the boat . Not a second also Kian have left her hands as promised. Tara wasore than happy as soon as her feet touched the boat she jumped towards Kian and hugged him tight. Kian was a bit startled in the beginning but after some time he also hugged her tight as if they were promising each other some unsaid words.
