Beautifully Damned

Imogen.

It was my last 2 weeks in Paris and I wanted to remember them. Max took me around to try everything, cafes, cake shops, even lingerie. My birthday was tomorrow and I didn't even remember until I was awoken by a crash downstairs. I woke and brushed my teeth, going downstairs, wearing my Versace robe.

"Shhh, she'll hear you and wake up" Yasmin whispered

"Sorry it just fell, here hold this" Maxime told her

I looked around "What's going on?" I asked

They all looked at me like deers who'd just seen headlights, "Well...Happy Birthday!!" Antoinette blew the party horn

I approached the kitchen to see a buffet of fruits and breakfast, turning my head to see a mountain of gifts. I saw a 'Venus et Fleur' Large bouquet on the table. "You guys...you didn't have to. Plus my birthday isn't until tomorrow" I spoke

"Of course we had to celebrate the greatest day in history. Plus I'm taking you on a trip so we won't be here until Wednesday" Maxime spoke

"You'll be too preoccupied with your sex-tivities to even look at your phone" Yasmin spoke, nudging Antoinette

I hugged him before looking to Yasmin who held a crepe cake. They began to sing happy birthday and we sat down to eat. Everyone went around saying their favorite story/thing about me.

I opened each of my presents, in the living room. Yasmin got me Fenty lingerie and some strange sex swing. Antoinette got me an autographed copy of 'Midnight Sun', signed by Robert Pattinson as well as some expensive wine. I looked at Maxime's gift and began to reach for it.

"Aht aht, this one is for later" he spoke

"Thank you guys for this, this has been the best birthday ever" I leaned into Max

"Well it's only the beginning. Pack a bag, we're going on a trip" He winked

"Oh God" I rolled my eyes

"Where are we going?" I said clinging onto Max's arm

I attempted to lift my blindfold but he quickly took my hand and kissed it, "You'll see" He said

"Watch you step amour" He said as I climbed up the step

"Can I take this off now?" I asked

"We're here" He chuckled as he untied my blindfold

We stood on a patio of a huge mysterious house, "And where is 'here' exactly?" I looked around

"My vacation house chérie" He said, "Come on let's go inside" He took my hand

We entered the house which was bigger on the inside, to reveal a mountain of gifts which I assumed were from Max. We walked to the bedroom which looked like heaven on Earth. White and Red roses scattered on the bed, and a bag with a swimsuit laying on the rack.

"Max" I started

"Yes my love?" He responded

I was speechless, "What? Did I do something wrong?" He asked

"No...you...you did all this for me?" I furrowed my eyebrows

He held my cheeks and kissed me, "Of course I did. My woman deserves the only the best. Now what would you like to do?" He asked

"Well" I looked out the window and picked up the bikini, "We could go swimming" I smiled

He hummed, walking away as his phone rang. I took the opportunity to walk around, giving myself a tour. It was a beautiful house, and the outdoor view was killer. I wondered how long he'd had the house, he's never mentioned it before. The sculptures and paintings distributed around the house were mesmerizing.

I walked back to our room, then the bathroom and changed into my swimsuit, looking at myself noticing how much I was glowing. I smiled, realizing I truly was happy. I put on the matching kimono, and took the door in the bathroom leading to an outdoor lounge area. Maxime came out in his trunks, I smiled as he walked towards me.

"Damn, chérie, you look...damn" He stared at me

"Are you just gonna stand there or are we going to the beach?" I sat on the outdoor bed, looking at my reflection in the glass door

I stood, walking down the stairs towards the beach. I put my sunglasses on as my feet touched the sand. Maxime not to far behind.

I settled on a beach chair that was positioned not too far from the water. I laid back, out in the shining sun as it beamed against my skin. Maxime sat on the chair next to me before getting up.

"I'm going for a swim, you coming chérie?" He looked down at me

"Mmmmm" I stretched, "Soon babe" I responded

He ran down into the water until he disappeared, I laid back enjoying the sun and even picked up a magazine. A bartender came up to me, asking me what I wanted. I ordered a Mai Tai and he left to the bar area, returning with my drink not too long after.

I sipped my drink and looked up to see my boyfriend walking to shore, slicking his hair back. My mouth almost watered at the sight. I brought my glasses down the bridge of my nose, taking him in.

"The water is amazing, come on chérie" He dripped on me

I stood, "But the sun is so nice" I spoke

He put me over his shoulder and I squealed. He began towards the water and I screamed "Max, don't th—" I stared before I was submerged under water.

I swam, standing up to see him laughing. I wasn't much worried about the wig I wore today because I made sure I used my waterproof lace glue. I hit his chest,

"Maxime!!" I screamed

"You look so beautiful right now, you know that?" He said

"Stop it" I put my hair in a low ponytail

He smiled, walking towards me, I backed away and began to run. He chased me and I giggled, not being able to get away due to the water weighing me down. He grabbed my waist and took the both of us down. I quickly stood, seeing him still under. I took the opportunity and sat on his shoulders as he stood.

I held his head for support as he laughed, he began to walk in the water before he lost his balance, I laughed until I realized as he was going down, I was going too. A wave crashed over us as we were still under. He stood, picking me up. I wrapped my legs around his waist, as he kissed me.

"Okay that's enough ocean for the day, let's go sunbathe" I spoke getting off

"D'accord" He said
[Translation: Okay]

I struggled to feel my legs, so I hopped on his back, he laughed walking both of us to shore.
