It was my first day in my new at Nirwana Beach Hotel. I had been trying to secure a job in a classy hotel for such a long time and I was so pleased to be working here. Beach security wasn't going to suit me forever but it would do as a first job and my parents were happy that I had found something.
My manager gave me my smart new uniform and detailed instructions on how to keep our clients safe at night as there are robbers and a few wild animals that roam on the beaches in Bintan.
My first real shift started at 8pm that night and I watched the clients wend their way towards the bar and restaurant for dinner. A 12 hour shift didn't fill me with glee but my manager said that things are normally very boring and I was Looking forward to my pay check at the end of the week as I had my eye on a new pair of trainers I was keen to buy.
One particular couple caught my eye as they weren't your average middle aged punters. They were slim and very cheerful, giving me a lovely wave as they set off in completely the wrong direction with a rucksack in tow.
As it was so quiet I decided to take a peek and see where they were off to so I could make sure they were safe. The couple, a tall handsome dark haired man and his slim blonde girlfriend, headed off to the pontoon. Clearly armed with a bottle and some glasses to enjoy watching the sun go down.
Back to my beach and the evening settled into a routine of keeping an eye on the guests. I spied the cheerful couple strolling back from watching the sun go down on the pontoon and went for dinner where I could tell from my spot on the beach they were not your average couple.
They exuded joy and happiness which is rare and I could tell by the way he looked at her or she touched his hand that they were very much in love.
The restaurant was closing down around them when they left and instead to turning right to go back to their beach villa the couple went left and headed into the far end of the beach which was dark and far from any hotel lighting.
I don't have much experience in the other sex and I decided this might be a great way to find out more about how western couples make out on a beach.
