Stuck In Heaven
On a Friday morning, sleep betrayed me for excitement. As I lay awake on my bed at 3 AM with the thought of my voyage that was about to begin in a few hours. 3 months after my 20
th
birthday, I thought things would be different, and it sure was. As confident as I was, that I won't be able to sleep anyway, I got out of the bed, brushed my teeth, put on some facemask on the face, and ice mask for the eyes. Did some meditation for a while, before I stripped naked and hit the cold shower.
By 11 AM, I left the house, on the cab to the harbor. The traffic didn't bother me for the first time in a long time. I reached the Brisbane harbor around 12 PM. Although, the ship I am going to board won't be in the harbor itself, but on a private port about 3 miles down. For some reason I felt like taking a stroll, and on the way, I had my breakfast and supplies for the next 10 - 15 days, though, I knew, it would take more than that for me to reach Hawaii. More specifically, Honolulu.
By the time, I reached the private port, carrying my bag and trolly, which had gotten so heavy after the supply run, there was a sturdy, robust man called for me, waving his hand. He had a balding head, bushy beard where his lips were hidden, and sunburnt here and there. His wore a white shirt, which was stained with dirt and looked greyish with buttons unbuttoned, displaying his belly and hairy chest to the locals. Despite his untidy appearance, he had a strong arm. And his legs were beastlike with huge calves, that appeared after his knee length orange shorts.
'Jacky?' He yelled at me, still waving his hands, while his other hand held a dark green brimmed hat.
'It's John, uncle, not Jacky.' I said as I reached near him. Kept my bag down and hugged him. Like the stereotypical sailor, he did not reek of booze, but he definitely reeked of dry fish, salt, sweat and grease.
'Yeah, yeah, Johnny, how have you been?' he asked.
'Not bad uncle. Looks like you've been living your life huh?' I said as I kept my hand on his belly.
'Oh yes, you'll see, you'll see.' He grabbed my trolly and walked to the old, almost a ramshackle of cargo ship. A small one compared to the normal cargo ships but still bigger for me. This should could fit about 20 people, excluding the space of mini containers and goods. I took my steps carefully as I placed my bag and trolly in the captain's deck.
'You can either wait in the shop, or you see a small hut over there, yeah, so you can go there, maybe a grab a couple a beer or a have a small nap or something. I got another last-minute booking. They said they might be little late, maybe couple hours.' He said as he grabbed his old phone, which almost lost its paintings and I for one was surprised on that century old mobile still functioning, like the ship itself.
'How many passengers? I mean if you're taking passengers other than me.'
'Yeah, I'd say about 8 others. One of them said, they would pay me a shit ton of money to get them to Hawaii. I wonder what's there in Hawaii really. Never went past the port.' He got off the ship, down the shore.
I followed him and went to the hut like place, which was essentially the local bar. He got us both a couple of beer and sat there talking about my old drama and his old adventures.
A while later, he got a call, and he went out rushing, answering the phone. 'Get to the ship Jacky...I mean, Johnny.' He said as he walked away urgently. I did as he asked and sat in the captain's deck, taking a look around. That's when I noticed, it's already half past 3 PM.
As I was looking around the ship, I heard few voices of women in distant, and among those cluster of voice, one sounded very familiar. I looked through the glass and saw 3 women and 4 men, and my uncle getting on the ship. The voices echoed louder now, as I went back to the deck to take a peek, I saw a tall, muscular men, and one lean and another one of an average height with bush like curly hairs, altogether blocking the view. I couldn't see anything but the tall pole on the front. I move to the side and I see one petite blonde woman, and another chubby yet, fit women.
The familiar voice kept speaking and my uncle was responding, curious, I try to get close to my uncle, and the time along with world stopped. For the third woman, another blonde haired, blue eyed gorgeous lady stood there in a white tank top and blue jeans, casually discussing the travel timing and payment. It was none other than Elizabeth Olsen, the infamous Hollywood actress.
First question to my mind, among thousand others were, why would such an actress prefer a ramshackle of a ship like this, instead of choosing first class seat in a private jet even. Not that I had a complain, but I started wondering the possibilities of this.
'This is my nephew. Ja...I am sorry...John. If you need anything let him know. We will be leaving in an hour.' My uncle said as he left the group and went to the engine room, while I stayed behind, adoring Elizabeth Olsen. They all looked at me, including Elizabeth Olsen, and she passed a weak smile at me. I considered that as a luck.
24 hours in the sea, with rain drizzling now and then, little harsh waves, it was all good. At least for me. That night, I stood leaning on the edge, looking into the ocean, with bright dense stars on the sky and she appeared before me, once again, after one complete day.
'Hey' she said and stood near me, wearing a grey t-shirt, a jacket and denim shorts. It took me a short moment to realize and get back from the blank zone.
'Hi...Hey, I mean, Hi. You know I am a huge fan.' I stammered, my hands trembled and my cheeks shivered in fear.
'Don't sweat. Relax.'
'Of. Okay.' I stopped talking after that.
'Don't get so anxious around me. I am not gonna bite you.'
'Okay.' I smiled. She had her hair pulled into a bun now, which the loosened it and let her silky hair flow for a while. Then she pulled it back into a pony.
I got the feel of getting an erection just by seeing her do this.
'I am..a huge fan of yours Ms. Olsen. If...If you don't mind?' I grabbed my mobile from the pocket. 'Can I take a picture with you?'
'Aww, thanks. Yeah, Yeah, sure, come here.' She got close to me, with her hand on my shoulder, her face near mine, her tits pressing against my arms as I raised my mobile for a picture. That moment was more pleasurable than any orgasm I attained through masturbation.
'And, call me Lizzy. I'd like to be considered as a regular person and leave this drama behind for a while now. Initially, I craved attention, wanted to be an actress. I loved signing up autographs, click pictures with fans and the sound and view of them going crazy...I loved that.' She started speaking, leaning on the edge, looking into the ocean, just like I was. I joined her and listened to everything she had to say.
She had to lot to vent it out. If I am being honest, I was only actively listening to her half the time, cause the rest of the time I was just checking her out. Her plain lips, loose t-shirt where I got a glimpse of her cleavage and even better view when she crossed her hands, and her thick legs in the shorts. It was too much beauty in a single form.
'I don't even know, why I am burdening you with my rants.' By this point, her eyes were red, and few more minutes, she'd have been crying. 'You have a cigarette?'
'Umm, no. But, just a second, I can get it for you.' I rushed to the wheelhouse and grabbed the cigarette box from my uncle and rushed back to Lizzy.
'Here you go.' I handed her the cigarette and an electric lighter, which I carry with myself for safety purpose. Thanks to Bear Grylls on this.
'Thanks!' she lit the cigarette and started smoking it up. Two puff later, she looked at me and asked if I smoke, I said no, hesitantly. But then, when Lizzy Olsen is offering you a smoke, you don't say no. Hence, I said, 'I've been wanting to try though.'
She smiled, dusted the ash and passed me the cigarette she was smoking. I didn't expect this, but I was also fast on accepting the offer. I tried on puff, a slow moderate one. Didn't do any harm. I blew it out. And on second one, I got greedy and took a big puff this time, which caught me and I coughed, passing the cigarette back to her.
'We're not on race. Take it slow.' She said taking another puff, and gave it back to me.
'I don't know the technique.' I answered, trying to pull a moderate one.
'There's no technique. It's just the process. You should learn to enjoy the process, rather than crave a good result. Now, breathe some air in along with it.' She instructed and I did as she mentioned.
'You feel it hit the lungs? Now, get it out.'
I did and this time, it felt wonderful and my head started losing focus for a minute. By this point, more than half the cigarette was done. Few more puffs and few more rants out of her system, the cigarette was done and she handed me back the cigarette box. But I asked her to keep it. She smiled and thanked me for that.
'It's time for dinner, I guess. We better get going.' We started walking to our cabin, as she walked beside me, with her hands on my shoulders.
People had their dinner in deck sometimes, and sometimes in their cabin, or in the common place where the food is served. My uncle Jason had to assistance to run the ship. Which was majorly under-resourced, but considering pay, they were sufficient.
That night we had dinner in the common cabin. Elizabeth Olsen for the first time looked at me while others were and passed me the typical Lizzy Olsen cute smile as she had her dinner.
