With Me Through Troubled Times (With Me - book 2)

Chapter 45

I lay on my right side in the bed, looking out the window as Joe places kisses along my bare shoulder. I smile before turning round to face him. “Everyone will be wondering where we've disappeared too”

“And?” He asks, moving to lay on top of me.

“I'm just saying,” I shrug slightly before he kisses.

“Mia, where....oh my god!” Anna shouts, opening the bedroom door and suddenly walking back out and slamming the door behind her.

I laugh and shake my head. “Anna, go away!”

“Don't worry, I'm going!” She calls through the closed door as I hear her heels on the wooden floor fade away.

“Really need to get a lock on that door,” Joe points out, looking at the door.

“I guess it didn't help when you've not got anything covering the side that she can see,” I tell him.

“Doesn't she know how to knock though?” He asks, looking down at me.

“Guess not.”

I move Joe off the top of me and up before getting out of bed, holding a sheet round my body.

“Where are you going?”

“I need a shower,” I mention while walking into the en-suite bathroom.

I stand in the shower letting the water fall onto my skin when a cold draft hits my back. I turn round and smile at Joe who is now standing behind me.

“What are you doing?” I question as he puts his hands on my waist, stepping closer to me.

“Taking a shower with my wife,” he answers, pushing me up against the cold wall.

I look at him as water drips down his face and the rest falls onto his back. I place my hands on his chest and and sigh. “We can't.”

“Why?” He ponders, moving my wet hair away from my neck.

“We'll get caught,” I point out as he comes even closer to me and places his body against mine.

“By who?”

“Let's see...my family, the children!”

“Mia, we're married. They can't say or do anything. Plus, there's a lock on the bathroom door so no one can get in.”

“Very well,” I sigh and see a smile creep onto his face.

He brings his face down to mine and kisses me with a passion filled kiss. I move my hands over his chest and place them on his shoulders as one of his hands moves to rest on the side of my face, making the kiss deeper.

It was nearly time for dinner (6pm) and Joe and I were just getting back down the stairs to join everyone. We had even changed into different clothes from the once we arrived in earlier.

I wore my Saint Laurent skinny jeans, white fitted top and Jimmy Choo sandals. Joe was wearing the same jeans as earlier but had a grey top on with his white trainers. I held his hand in mine as we walk out to the back garden and over to the table where everyone was sitting at.

I look over at Anna as I sit down and she simply shakes her head and continues to talk to her husband. The touch of Joe's hand resting on my thigh under the table makes me turn my gaze to him. He smiles at me before pouring himself a drink. I return his smile before reaching for some food.

“You must be hungry after earlier,” Anna speaks up, looking over at me.

“What are you talking about?”
