The Surf School – Part 2: Ride It In

On Thursday morning the swell was perfect. Camille paddled out beyond the break with Noor beside her, heart hammering, and waited for the right set. "This one," said Noor. "Now. Paddle, paddle, paddle."
Camille paddled. The wave lifted her. She popped up, wobbled, bent her knees, and for twelve glorious seconds she flew across the face of a glittering green wave, shrieking with joy, until the sand scraped under the board and she tumbled into the shallows.
Noor was there instantly, laughing, hauling her up in a soaking hug. "You did it! You did it!"
"I did it!" Camille was crying with laughter. "Did you see?"
"I saw. I saw everything." Noor held her at arm's length, wet and radiant. "You were beautiful."
The coffee, at a tiny beach cafe, turned into lunch. Lunch turned into a long walk along the rocks, where the lighthouse flashed white above the surf. At sunset, with salt drying on their skin, Noor stopped on the sand and said, "I would like to kiss you. Is that all right?"
"Very all right," said Camille.
The kiss was warm, sandy and a little salty. Noor's hand slid into her damp hair. The waves rolled in below them, indifferent and enormous.
Noor's flat sat above the surf shop with a balcony facing the ocean. They showered the sand off, took turns laughing at each other's tan lines, and fell onto the big white bed with the shutters open. Camille traced the freckles on Noor's shoulders. Noor kissed the inside of her wrist. They took their time, unhurried, tender, bold and teasing, with the surf pounding gently beyond the windows like a slow, endless heartbeat.
On Friday morning Camille's suitcase stood by the door. She watched the sun climb over the water.
"I have a lot of holiday left," she said. "Four years' worth, at least."
"The advanced class starts in May," said Noor. "You could book."
"Will you be the teacher?"
"Only for you," said Noor, smiling. "And I will never let go until you tell me."
