“Yes. Too much. Maya thinks she’s got it bad; she has no idea what those two have been like when she’s not around. God, even Lucy mithers me at least once a day to make sure I’m looking after myself, and you know how crappy she is at communicating.”
What a weird thing to say.
I thought it was just me she distanced herself from, but the others, too? This is something I need to dive deeper into. I’ll have to ask about it later when there has been a tequila or two. That way, they won’t pay as much attention to my questions.
“Well, sis, you seem to be doing a lot better. I’m proud of you for how you’ve managed it all.”
She just hums a reply, clearly not wanting to take the compliment.
“Oh, look, we’re here.” She says giddily, pointing to the strip of beach up ahead.
Well, that’s one way to change the conversation.
Looking out at the beach before me, I can’t contain my sigh of relief. Finally, I get to relax. They can all get to fuck if they think I’m doing anything else whilst we’re here. I am heavily debating jumping in a cab back to the villa at this rate.
“Oh, my God. Look at that inflatable obstacle course!” Lucy squeals from up ahead.
Fuck.
My.
Life.
Really? Is this what hell is like? This is some special form of torture. How the hell can I not do it now when she looks so bloody ecstatic?
“Hell yes.” Samuel, one of the bodyguards, adds from beside her. “We’ve got to give that a go.”
Fucking great.
“If you want me on that, you'd better feed me first.” I grind out, pouting like the child I am.
“And me. I feel like I haven’t eaten in days.” Blair complains, and Gracie nods her head next to her. At least there are two other normal people here.
“Ah, I don’t think I can wait! It looks so fun.” Maya chimes in.
Tommy stalks towards her and leans down to kiss her lips.
“First you eat, then we play.” He says in a low voice, thinking no one else can hear.
Maya's eyes go wide as she looks side to side at all of us staring at them. Her cheeks flush, but her eyes sparkle at the way Tommy is with her.
“Ew, you two. Get a room.” Fallon pretends to gag on her fingers.
“We have a room, a full villa actually. But you fuckers are all there, in our way.” He huffs; he must have a case of blue balls.
That makes two of us. Last night was unbelievable, but what I would give to have my girl back in my bed every night. I never realised how much I had gotten used to it until now, not being able to be close to her whenever I want to. As soon as we get home, we are telling everyone, and she is packing her shit and moving in with me officially.
