Stay With Me

Chapter 24

"We need to leave the bed. It's almost lunch time." I kiss up Ian's chest.

"But we have 5 days left here to do everything else, what's another hour?" He smirks and pulls me on top of him so I straddle over his waist.

"We've been saying that the past three hours." I smirk down at him. He slides his hands up my stomach and behind my neck bringing my lips down to his.

"Fine. We can go paddle boarding like you wanted." He says. I smile and kiss him again.

"I promise tonight we can go back to doing what we do best." I grind myself into him and climb off of him quickly.

"You tease." He sits up and I laugh.

"Tonight." I wink and shut the door to the bathroom.

An hour later we are showered and dressed for the day. In our swim wear that is.

"Do you remember how to paddle board?" I joke with him when we get our boards placed in the water.

"Yes." He says with little confidence. I laugh and climb on to my board. I hear him curse behind me and a splash.

"Son of a bitch." He comes back up from the water.

"Don't you dare laugh." He swims back to his board and I cover my mouth.

"I can't help it!" I start laughing and he swims to my board, pushing at my ankles until I'm in the water with him.

"Ian!" I splash the water in his face and he laughs.

"That's what happens when you laugh at me." He smirks, kissing my cheek. I climb back on my board and paddle away from him.

"Try to keep up." I say with a smirk. He scrambles back on to his board and catches up with me.

"Look! A sea turtle!" I point to the turtle swimming close to us.

"There's another one behind it." Ian points out. We watch them for awhile. Not moving our boards. The turtles swim around and then under us until we can't see them anymore.

"I had a pet turtle once. I swore up and down it was a sea turtle but I was also like four." Ian says with a laugh.

"What was its name?" I ask.

"Scooby." He says and I turn back to look at him.

"Scooby? Like scooby doo?" I start laughing.

"Like I said, I was four." He shakes his head with a smirk.

"I'm sure you gave your pets weird names too." He sticks his tongue out.

"No, my mom always named them." I say.

"Until I got Lynx. I named her." I got Lynx when I was sixteen.

"Are you hungry?" Ian asks a little while later as we paddle back to the shore.

"Yes. Starving. I think I could catch a fish right now and eat it raw." I joke and he laughs. We take the paddle boards back to the shack and dry off.

"We can go there and eat, Mexican food." Ian points to the Mexican bar and I agree that it does sound good.

Ian and I go back down to the beach before heading back to our villa. He swings our hands back and forth as we walk.

"I've had so much fun here." We stop and look out at the sun setting.

"I have as well. Why can't we do this as a living?" He says with a laugh.

"Because then who would cook me delicious dinners every night?" I pull him close to my mouth and kiss him.
