Im so glad we finally decided to take the time out of our grueling schedules for a week so we can relax. This could very well become one of the best weeks of our lives; right, honey?

            Elizabeth glanced out the window. Im worried about the kids, she said.

            Ohhhh, theyll be fine. Dont be silly. Just calm down and try to take everything in.

            Elizabeth sighed. Never before had she been away from home for more than a couple of days at a time but she had always known that Micheal was there to take care of the children while she was gone. She glanced out the window. She could see everything from up here; the icy blue waters, the white beaches, the trees overlooking the calm coast line The scene was nothing set apart from enchanting.

            Please turn off all tape players, telephones, computers and electronic devices at this time. Flight 109 to Cancun will be landing in five minutes.

            Elizabeth shifted slightly in her seat. This is the worst part, she muttered to herself.

            The planes wheels slowly descended beneath the large mass of metal. Elizabeth drew a large breath. Micheal reached over, took her hand in his and smiled. Just breathe, he said calmly.

            Easy for you to say, she snarled back.

            Elizabeth tightly closed her eyes and waited for the plane to come to a complete stop.

            Thank you for traveling with American Airlines, the voice on the PA said. Have a great rip. Please exit out of one of the following doors.

            Micheal picked up Elizabeths bag as well as his computer bag and followed her out of the front exit.

            After arriving at their hotel room, Elizabeth immediately called home. Trish, she said. Is everything okay?

            Yes, Miss Lancaster. Everythings just fine. Have a good time with your husband. Oh! And I almost forgot! Dont forget to relax!

            Uncomfortable laughter ran through the line.

            Thanks, Trish.

            Anytime, the nanny said and then hung up the phone.

            Do you see now?
            Elizabeth jumped. I didnt know you came in. I was just

            I know.

            Elizabeth looked at the floor. Lets go get something to eat, she said. Im parched.

            Micheal nodded. Sounds like a good plan to me, he said.

            He took her to a casual beach spot; a secluded place that not very many people often went to. The music played in the background and a few couples filled the dance floor.

            Shall we?

            Elizabeth laughed nervously. I havent danced in years she said.

            I know, he agreed. I was there.

            He grabbed her hand and guided her onto the dance floor.

            Twenty minutes later, their food was ready and they were both fully relaxed. Lets order a drink, shall we? asked Elizabeth.

            Micheal stood up from the table, went to the bar and ordered two margaritas. They both drank them at an incredibly rapid pace and ordered two more. After a few hours (and many drinks later), they decided to return to the hotel.

            Good evening, sir, said the bellhop. May I help you with anything?

            Slurring and stumbling Micheal responded, You could help by leaving me alone for starts. Then Id like you to get back to your little JOBUH!

            From there, the situation got very rambunctious and argumentative. Before they knew it, Micheal and Elizabeth were forced to spend the rest of their week in a more suitable location The local prison.

            The moral of this unfinished story is people can be influenced by their environment so if you dont want things to get out of control, then you should remain in your personal safety box for the rest of your life and stay home.
