65 - life with thrill

- Lauren -

I took another bite of the food and sat the fork and knife down, pulling my eyes forward and on Maddy. "How are you liking the dinner?" I asked, kicking off a conversation as we've only been buried in our food ever since getting to the restaurant.

"Fancy." My pretty thing kept it short, clearly caring more about eating so i unlocked my phone, getting my email to be on the screen before setting it in front of her to see.

I absorbed as she took a glance on it, studying it for a couple of seconds. "The Maldives?" Maddy looked at me with a curious smile. "Mhm." I tried to hide my excitement.

"Are you like a mind reader or something? Sure, i loved Spain and Denmark! Absolutely amazing places but the Maldives, babe? For our honeymoon? You spoil me, have you acknowledged that?"

"Do i? I don't know about that."

"We've already wasted thousands of dollars with those two countries! I swear, you need a lecture about techniques on saving money."

"That much has been wasted? I haven't even noticed." I calmly responded, being fully honest but i rather showcased a smirk towards the girl.

"I feel like i'm dating a sugar mommy."

"Maddy! Okay, that's definitely not the way i want to be described!" I immediately exclaimed, her confession having me taken aback.

"Why? You're wealthy and a woman. Combining both of those-"

My leg lifted up under the table, pressing the tip of my heel right on her area to shut her up. "Lauren!" Maddy didn't hesitate to yell out, throwing her hand over her mouth from how loud it actually had been.

"Close your pretty lips, okay?" I whispered back, eyeing her out with pure seriousness however i added even further pressure, seeing her nervousness rise.

"Babe, stop. We're in a public place." Her head shifted down, trying to busy herself with the food yet i only continued to rub. "When i said stop last night, you still decided to demolish me, didn't listen at all."

"I'm sorry! You fucking deserved it but yes, i apologize nonetheless!"

"So be it then." I said and lowered my leg back down.

I finally panned my eyes off the lake, turning to look back to understand if Maddy hasn't actually ran back in the cabin which she thankfully wasn't, rather nervously just standing, eyeing me out.

"Yeah, yeah. Go on. I'll just stay on the dock, watch you." She formed a smile, obviously slightly shivering from the coldness of the night.

"Oh no, no. You're coming with me." I stepped over, already grabbing the bottom of her hoodie to pull off. "Lauren, please! Let's do anything but a swim in that freezing water." She exclaimed but i only continued to undress her, same with myself.

"Put that pretty smile on for me." I ordered after setting the clothes aside, seeing as she looked completely annoyed at first before forcing a smile. "Good girl." I said and grabbed her wrist, bringing her closer to the water.

"You go first." I heard her say. "Together. Otherwise you'll ditch." I proudly replied and we sat down before sliding off the dock and into the water.

"Oh my god, i couldn't hate you more, Lauren!"

"Shh." I swam up closer, pulling her in to feel the extreme pressure her body held. "Look at me, baby." I whispered out since her attention was flying around but on me.

"Look at me, Maddy." I purposely added pressed on her bare waist, knocking her focus on me. "Breathe in," i took one myself whilst saying, "and out." We both exhaled.

"You did good when we first had a swim here. Who's taken your bravery away?" I mentioned even though i saw her get used to the coldness by now.

"If you weren't aware, the first swim that happened here was also in the winter, all the rest in much warmer weather. I don't fucking know how you do it but this is the one activity i hate in our relationship."

"Marriage." I happily corrected her. "I'm gonna drown you. I swear, i'll do it if you don't stop frustrating me." Her hands actually gripped my shoulders, sensing how serious she was but nothing knocked down my playfulness.

"Honestly, something about you being mad just brings such arousal over me that i can't even explain it." I commented, watching her annoyance rise even higher.

"Yes. Keep doing that. Spike your rage towards me." I smirked out yet as soon as she was about to dunk me under, i threw my arm up, grabbing the dock.

"Lauren!" The girl exclaimed, by now easing out as she got the clearance of who's more powerful. "Come on. Enjoy this. Stop being a pussy." I let loose of the dock, grabbing her back in.

"We're already doing something i don't like so how can i enjoy?" Her arms set on my shoulders, resting her forehead on mine for a couple of breaths.

"Not everything will go your way all the time." I admitted but my tone not as serious as those words were. "Risks and challenges, baby. Makes life more thrilling." I kept going.

"You're right." She brushed her answer against my lips and i pressed a kiss back, finally bringing a genuine smile across her face.
