So far day two of the family gathering is going fine. I haven't bumped into my parents which is good, but today we're all meeting up at beach. I'm not in the mood to see them, but I do want to apologize to Kevin and Nikki for last night. Michael has been enjoying today so far. Well from what I can tell he is. I look over at him, and smile.
"Keep your eyes on the road." he turns to look at me.
"What? I'm just appreciating the scenery." I wink at him.
"Now I'm part of the scenery?" his voice playful.
"I mean with that hair, I don't think you're part of it, but eh." I joke.
"What? You don't like my red hair?"
"I don't." out of the corner of my eye I can see him frown a bit. "Kidding loser, I love it. It makes your lips look nice."
"My lips?" his voice becomes lower, and I get chills down my spine.
"Yes your lips." the words come out more huskier than intended, but I quickly change the conversation. "So are you excited to see the Melaque?"
"I don't know where that is?"
"It's a nice little place near the coast. Actually it's right on the coast." I turn to look at him.
"By the water, meaning there will be sun, meaning I will be getting tan.. not good." he gives me a panicked look, then places his hand on thigh.
"Babe, it's going to be fine." I assure him. It's not like he isn't going to put on sunscreen.
I park outside my house, and Michael is the first to get out. In the rear view mirror I see my brothers SUV pull up after, then another car. Here we go. I clamber out of the truck and my dad walks past me.
"Are you ok?" he asks as he walks around the truck.
"Why wouldn't I be?" I flash a fake smile.
"Well with everything that is happened, I bet you're overwhelmed." he places his hand on the small of my back.
"It's ok Michael. I'll be ok." I lean over and kiss him on the cheek as Nathan gets out of his car. Michael nods in his direction, and he nods back. My parents are already inside the house, my sister and brother walk in behind them.
Once inside I immediately go up to my room. All I want to do is change into my bathing suit and go relax by the pool. But thinking about it I might even go down to the beach. The further I am from them the better.
"Princess what are we going to do?" Michael's voice comes from behind the bathroom door.
"Beach or pool" I say, as I finish putting on my kimono. I look up at my refection in the mirror, and I don't recognize the girl looking back at me. Who have I become? A couple months ago I would not be wearing this. Hell I wouldn't even been thinking of ever wearing something like this.
"Ready babe?"
"Yeah coming," I pick up my clothes and put them on the counter. I step out of the bathroom, and Michael sits up on the bed. He looks at me with his mouth opened. My eyes look down at the ground, all of the sudden it's become more interesting. Did they change it?
"Look at me." Michael speaks up. Slowly my eyes meet his, and he motions me over to him. I shuffle my feet, and stand in front of him.
"Do you know how fucking hot you look right now?" I shrug. "I'm the luckiest man at the moment." he smiles "I shouldn't even be allowed to look at you. That's how good you look." his hands come up and rest on my waist.
