TO HAVE & TO HOLD-Sequel of Catch Me I'm In Love

Chapter 39 - The Honeymoon

Writer's Note: 

This is Rated R, since it is, obviously the honeymoon. For the #TeamMahalay, #TeamCorrupted and the new thought-of #TeamRomantic

This is for you. Remember this is Roan and Erik's first night.

*************************************************

The wedding was nice and intimate. Several people from the Fashion Show were there, Monique Lhuiller, Kate, Erik’s cousin Abby who is a journalist in Long Island, Roan’s cousin Millicent who is based in New Jersey among others.

It was a short-planned wedding, they just wanted to do it as soon as possible, they still plan to have a church wedding with their family in the Philippines.

Both their families agreed and supported them when they told them a few days earlier that they wanted to get married in New York. Roan’s planned vacation in New York for a week turned into a month. She has to go back to Paris where she is based only after they go to their honeymoon which will be in Santorini and then both of them are going back to Paris.

They have a flight to catch to Greece first thing in the morning.

They are in their rented cottage at East Hamptons Point. It is a one level one bedroom cottage with private balcony, view of the marina with king size bed, full bath with jacuzzi tub and shower. 

Just what they needed. Both of them still wearing their wedding outfits.  

Roan stared at the engraved ceiling, which must have been about forty feet high. There was an actual hush inside the large bedroom at a little past 10 when they got in.  

On the bed was a bottle of red wine with a congratulatory best wishes card from the place.   Erik teased Roan if she’d like a glass of it.  

“Hmmmm kung gusto mo akong matulog ng mahimbing…sige give me a glass of it,” she laughed.  

Erik laughed too…“Oh, no.. Never mind I asked.” Erik moved closer to Roan, held her hand…kissed it.

He then pulled her close to him, his eyes twinkling   

“I can’t believe it babe… You’re mine. You’re mine alone.” Erik said, stroking the side of her cheeks, smelling her hair. It kept getting better from there.

They have everything they need – airy, plush, with a king-size bed. They even have a view of the marina.

It was dark but the glimmer of light from the side of the resort adds a certain effect to it – it was romantic.  

About that king size bed, it was covered with cream and gold duvet, a comforter? They always get confused between the two – whatever it is called they didn’t bother to remove the duvet/comforter, they just fell into it.  

Laughing and talking, happy to be there together, finally the moment they’ve been waiting for – Roan was a little afraid but excited at the same time.

Realizing how much they loved each other – they missed each other, the one year they’ve been separated only ignited the passion and love they have for each other.
