Even Better Together

chapter nineteen

Sophia

A spa resort.

That's where Hunter has booked for the weekend.

I'm so happy. I definitely need the relaxation. Feeling tears begin to prick my eyes as I'm speechless for a moment.

"Shit, you don't like it, we can go-"

"No, Hunter it's perfect. They are happy tears I promise." I interrupt him, he is so thoughtful, I take hold of his hand and give it a squeeze.

"Are you sure? They have a yoga studio, I thought maybe I could take you up on that lesson you offered me?" He grins cheekily at me.

"Of course." I reach up and kiss his lips.

"So we are staying in the hotel for two nights, we can grab dinner in the Italian restaurant on the top floor tonight, then tomorrow we can do what you like. They have a yoga studio, swimming pool, sauna, ice rooms, and I booked us a couple's massage, if that's alright?" I gaze up as Hunter tells me the plan.

I can't believe this man is mine.

He has been amazing to me since the whole Lucy situation, he's really trying to make me happy.

I know I probably overreacted, which is why I accepted his apology so quickly. I should have heard him out and let him explain, which I will grow and learn from going forward.

I'm just happy getting to know him more and more, spending time here this weekend together will be ideal.

After checking in and dropping our bags off in our room, we head to the restaurant.

"What do you fancy?" Hunter asks me, knowing I love Italian food, so it's going to be a hard choice.

"Hmm, I think the ham and mushroom tagliatelle, what are you thinking?" I ask Hunter who is scanning over the menu in detail.

"I think spaghetti bolognese, classic." He smiles closing the menu and reaching for my hand.

Once we finished eating, we retreated back to our room, I change into a silk cami and shorts set to sleep in, while Hunter is just wearing his boxers.

I settle my head against his chest and relax the weight of my body, my eyes fluttering shut.

"Night Hunter."

"Goodnight baby." He responds, placing a kiss on my head.

This room is so peaceful to wake up in.

The feeling of the soft bedsheets against my skin, the beautiful natural sunlight shining in through the side window.

I could literally stay here forever.

I look up to Hunter who is on his back, arms still tightly wrapped around me.

"Are you ready for that yoga session?" I ask, my heart warms at the fact that Hunter wants to make me happy by bringing me here.

"Sure, although I must warn you, I'm not very flexible." He chuckles deeply, his voice always a fraction lower in the mornings.

"That's alright, you can just watch me." I grin at him.

"Oh, don't you worry baby, I won't be able to take my eyes off of you." He grabs my ass giving it a squeeze with both of his large hands.

I squeal, trying to slide myself away and out of the bed.

"Come on, let's get dressed." I shout over my shoulder, finding my leggings and sports bra out of my suitcase.
