"We heard you last night" Cassidy's eyes widened in embarrassment and her face turned red, the blush going all the way down to the cut out neckline of her swimsuit top. Maya burst out laughing. "Someone sure knows how to take care of his wife" Christina winked at her and Cassidy looked down at her lap. "Don't pretend, I heard you too, I don't know how Damon sleeps with such noise" Christina looked horrified at Maya, who was rolling in the sand.

Cassidy looked in the direction of the three men who were playing volleyball a hundred meters away. She giggled as Trevor tried to reach for the ball, which Jason hit a serve and landed on his face in the sand. Trevor stood up spitting sand and looked defiantly at Jason, who grinned devilishly. Even compared to Trevor and Peter, Jason looked big.

Her gaze drank in the way his muscular thighs effortlessly carried the weight of his body, contracting and relaxing with each step, the way his abs were defined as he raised his arms and powered up to hit the ball, perfectly outlining his six pack. How his biceps loomed as he hit the ball and his back strained. Everything about Jason was perfect, absolutely divine and sexy. Her gaze drifted over the tattoo on his shoulder, the coiled dragon seemed to come to life with every movement and its huge, toothy maw opened and closed lightly on his chest.

"Girl, you're gonna eat him with your eyes" Christina whispered in her ear and Cassidy responded without thinking. "If you only knew how delicious he is!" she gaped, slapping her hand over her mouth and Christina burst out laughing. "What, what?" Maya curiously poked her head between them, having missed the gossip. "Cassidy just admitted that last night's menu was delicious" Christina replied and Maya looked up at Jason, then turned to a startled Cassidy and burst out laughing.

"Mom" Damon stumbles over to Christina, rubbing his eyes and she sighs. "Debt's calling me, I'll see you at lunch" she stood up, gathered up Damon's things and hers, waved at Trevor to show him that she was going to take their son for a nap and left Cassidy and Maya alone. "You know, at your wedding me and Peter..." Cassidy looked at Maya in surprise and then at Peter, who was just fighting with Jason and Trevor for the ball. "And?" she asked softly, knowing that for Maya, Peter was more than a friend for years.

"We've been on a few dates, nothing serious, but I think it's going to work out and I wanted you to hear it from me" Cassidy smiled and hugged her friend. "I'm happy for you, really" Maya smiled shyly, uncharacteristically for her, and her dark eyes turned to Peter, who waved at her, blowing her an air kiss. "You both deserve it, especially you, you've been alone for a long time" Maya sighed and bit her lip, laying back on her hands. "We'll see, it's still early, but I really like him" she murmured and Cassidy nuzzled her, winking at her.

As they spoke, two girls approached the three men and Cassidy and Maya fell silent, waiting for the men's reaction. One of the girls deliberately walked up to Jason, who gave her an indifferent look, but still, she hung onto his arm and Cassidy felt her throat tighten as she gave him a seductive smile. "Let's go and protect our men" Maya sighed and stood up, pulling her hand. Cassidy followed her but was trying not to look at how Jason was doing nothing and just letting the girl hang on his arm.

Jealousy was overwhelming her with every step and Jason's lack of response was starting to anger her. He looked up and their eyes met, his softening and hers flashing with anger at him for the first time. "You know, I don't care!" Cassidy muttered and freed herself from the stunned Maya, walking back to their towels. "Cassidy" Jason called after her and finally broke free of the girl, running after her.

She picked up her beach dress, which she had been using as a pillow until now, and put it on, gathering up her towel and patting it out of the sand, putting it in her large bag and walking back to their hotel. If Jason wanted to enjoy the attention of another woman, she wasn't going to stand by and watch that bitch hanging around his neck, and he didn't even bother to inform her that he was married.

"Cassidy,love,wait!" Jason stopped her, grabbing her arm. "Where you going?" he asked breathlessly and Cassidy looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "In our room,to pack" Cassidy replied coldly and pulled her hand away, walking back to the hotel. "What, why?" he caught up with her again and stood in front of her, blocking her way and trying to hug her. "Love.." she passed under his arm and he cursed, he had never seen her like this before.

"Don't call me that!" Cassidy hissed over her shoulder and Jason gritted his teeth. "For God's sake,stop!" he caught up with her again, grabbed her arm and twisted her around, locking her in a hug. "What's wrong Cassidy, why are you acting like this?" he asked softly and she laughed wryly. "Go ask that sexy blonde who's looking at you like you're a piece of meat right now!" Cassidy replied looking past him, the fact that the girl was standing there looking after Jason as if expecting him to come back to her only fueled her jealousy.

"Jealous, love?" Jason relaxed, he had never seen her angry before, Cassidy was always happy, but the fact that she was jealous of him gave him real pleasure. "Why would I be jealous when you clearly don't care?" she tried again to free herself, but this time without success. "I didn't know you were jealous,my love" Jason chuckled and began to shower her face with kisses. "Stop it, get back there, she's waiting for you" Cassidy growled, trying to stop him.

"It's going to have to wait, because I'm all yours" Jason growled, his lips trailing down her neck. "Really, why didn't you push her away then?" Cassidy was slowly starting to give in. "I'm sorry, I just wanted to see how you would react, I promise to never let another woman touch me again" Cassidy relaxed her shoulders and sighed. "You'll get away with it this time, but just this once" she murmured and Jason smirked, pressing his lips to hers.

"Do you want me to go back and explain to her that a scarecrow like her is no match for my beautiful wife and will never be able to reach even the lowest rung of your league?" Cassidy giggled and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Won't she be mad at you?" Jason snorted and nibbled lightly on her ear. "I don't care, as long as you don't get mad at me,baby" Cassidy huffed and let herself be picked up and carried back to the beach.
