"Not right now," Finn said as he sat down."Guess what?"
"What?"
"My boss gave me two days off," Finn told him excitedly.
"Really?That's great."
Finn tilted his head, staring at Prince suspiciously."I'd be suspicious that you cooked something up with my boss to get me those two days off, if it wasn't just me but a couple of the other interns too."
"I…"
Finn pressed a finger to his lips."Don't lie to me," he smiled."I'm not angry about it.So since I don't have to be at work until Monday, I assume you have something planned."
Prince lightly kissed his finger, then gently removed it from his lips."Is your passport up to date?"
"Yes."
Prince smiled."Good, then let's go."
He stood and grabbed Finn's hands, pulling him from his seat.
"Where are we going?"
"It's a surprise."
Finn started to speak, but Prince cut him off with a peck on the lips."A surprise is a surprise, so no questions."
"So bossy."
"Admit it, you like it when I'm like this."
Finn grabbed his coat collar and pulled him down for a lingering kiss."I find it extremely sexy," he said between another sweet kiss.
Prince had to keep his hands at his sides to stop himself from pulling Finn in, or he would forgo all his plans to court Finn the right way.Breaking their kiss, he sucked in a deep breath and let it out slowly, trying to calm his racing heart."You're tempting, Finn Turner."
"I know."He wandered away, leaving a trail of enticing scent that left Prince no choice but to follow.
Give him time, Prince.
When Prince had askedhim if his passport was up to date, Finn was curious.Hell, who wouldn’t be?But he never guessed that Prince would bring him to Bermuda for the few days he had off.
He stood on the balcony of their hotel room, looking out at the clear blue water.Just like the cabin, they were in one suite with two bedrooms and a bathroom between them.He wasn’t sure if Prince had planned it that way, but it made Finn chuckle when he was shown to his room.
But before getting to the island, they had a romantic dinner on the plane, starting with champagne and fresh oysters with mignonette, followed by filet mignon with truffle butter for the main course, and ending with fresh strawberries and whipped mascarpone cheese.
Finn had caught Prince watching him more than once during the meal, a small, amused smile tugging at his mouth every time Finn took another bite.
"Why are you staring at me like that?Do I have food on my face?"
"No."Prince smirked."I like watching you eat.It tells me I did a good job planning this."
"Oh," Finn said, suddenly a little more aware of Prince's gaze as he returned to his meal and took his time eating.
The meal was filling, the conversation was delightful, and to top it off, all Finn had to do was sit back and enjoy it.
Since starting their relationship, Finn had noticed that Prince had been following his lead and had not pressured him into anything.He was respectful of Finn's feelings and emotions, which Finn greatly appreciated.
Each night, they separated.Finn wished they wouldn’t, because he was left with a yearning he had never experienced before.
