Nothing to see here, just a casual swim-yourself-to-work day.


I'm not sure that these fellow conservationists agree with Elei's more laid-back approach to work attire.


A litterbug! A custom content disaster litterbug! Elei did not hold back when it came to telling this lady what's up.


After a few more bits and bobs of work were taken care of, it was back to wooing Nohea.



Elei: Wanna come back to my place?


Yeah, those seductive moves totally worked. It's about to get steamy.


Later, Elei headed to the beach to play some chess and hang out with Nalani, who abandoned their game mid-move to build a sand sculpture. You do you, girl.


Elei: Nalani, take a good one for Simstagram. Get my good side!


To wrap up the day, Elei went for a quick sunset snorkel.


So many starfish!


The next morning, the first thing on Elei's list was brushing up on a bit of recent conservation research.


Followed up by some good ol' field work.


And no trip to Mua Pel'am is complete without changing into some swimwear and taking a quick dip.


Woah, there, Mister Fish Poacher! What do you think you're doing!?


Don't worry, reader, our girl is on the case.


This perpetually eyes-almost-closed gentleman tried to talk his way out of the situation, but he was no match for Elei.


Elei: You, sir, are getting a citation*!

*Wouldn't it be so cool if you could actually give citations?!


After that taxing day of work, Elei and the girls went to the newly revamped bar for a few drinks and some catching up.


The bubble blower was a big swing and a miss.




A little late night skinny dipping anyone? It's a big "yes" for our lovebirds.



Nohea spent the night, ooooooh baby! Things are definitely going strong with these two.



She's definitely singing "How Far I'll Go" in her head.

And then my favorite thing to happen thus far happened and it is Nohea pushing Elei on a swing at the little party that was happening on the beach.




Elei: Really put your back into it, okay? I gotta get higher than this little twerp next to me.


I could cry at how wholesome this is.



Do pineapples really grow on plants this short?


After her little harvesting break, Elei told Nohea to meet her at the waterfall. Apparently she needed to take care of some hygiene stuff first, though.


Nohea: So, I've been thinking about how cool it would be if... um, if you would be my girlfriend.


Elei: Yes! Obviously! I was going to ask you the same thing!

And a hug from two angles because one angle is never enough when the scenery and the Sims are both beautiful.




Hey, girls, where are you going?


I personally don't think kissing under a rushing waterfall would be that great but if it floats these two's boat...


Uh-oh, I think it's getting a bit friskier than just kissing. Let's give Elei and Nohea some privacy, shall we?


Later, after freshening up and coming down from that watery WooHoo...


The struggle when all you want is to take a cute picture with your new girlfriend but you also don't want to let go of her long enough to take said picture. Elei relates.


Awwwwwwwwww! I told myself I wanted to take this story slowly and not fall into my pattern of falling in love and having kids as soon as possible so just expect a lot of romance and dates and cute moments between these two before any serious decisions start to happen.
