"Can I please go with you guys?" Roxie whines, clinging onto my arm while I pack my suitcase.
"Roxanne Katzman, please let go of me. It's our honeymoon. It will make no sense for you to come," I remark, shaking free of her hold.
"But I want to go to Bora Bora too! I've never gone before." She continues to whine like a child.
"I've never gone before either. What's your point?" I state with my arms crossed across my chest.
She pouts then gives me the side-eye. "You're such a meanie! I don't like you!"
"Alright then, if I'm such a meanie then I'm not bringing anything back for you, only for Donnie." I zip up my suitcase, set it on the floor on its wheels, and walk away.
She gasps then springs into action. "Wait, no! I want souvenirs too! I'm sorry, Vi." She gives a guilty smile as she holds onto my leg. I smack my face, shake my head and sigh.
"Roxie! Get up! You're pregnant for Pete's sake!" I pull her up and dust off her clothes. "Don't worry, I'll bring plenty of stuff back for you." I chuckle and roll my eyes. She squeals with glee and rubs her baby bump. "I'll bring something back for you too, little one," I add in and kiss her belly.
"Are you ready, Violet?" Kendall shouts from downstairs. I carry the suitcase down with Roxie following behind me. As I'm halfway down the steps, he grabs it from me with one hand and wraps the other around my waist then lifts me down as I squeak from the suddenness.
"Wow, strong man!" Roxie exclaims. "I wish Donnie could do that to me." She pouts.
"Haha, maybe you should make him go to the gym with Kendall," I remark. I look at my watch and realize what time it is. "We have to go now, honey. If we don't leave right now, we'll be late for check-in," I declare. "Bye, Roxanne." I kiss her cheek. "Bye, Leon." I kiss her baby bump and link my arm with my husband then leave.
. . .
"I can't believe we're going to such a beautiful place like Bora Bora," I say and look down below at the aqua ocean.
"Of course, my beautiful wife deserves to have a honeymoon at a beautiful place," Kendall remarks and kisses my hand.
"Flattery won't get you this." I gesture towards myself.
"No need. I already have it all to myself." He smirks and gives me a deep, passionate kiss.
"I didn't know Mr. Williams was such a passionate young man." I smile, and he gives me another kiss.
"Don't call me that because I might think you're talking about my father." He chuckles.
"Now, that would be weird, but if he's got your mother then he must be very passionate, and that must be where you get it from." I giggle.
"Maybe..." He exhales and gives me a final kiss.
"Mr. Williams, we're arriving at the destination," the pilot says on the P.A. system. Kendall presses a button next to our seats.
"Thanks, Earl," he says.
. . .
I glide my hand over the wood fence of the platform above the aqua ocean. Huts are surrounding us, and the water is so clear we can see the marine life living in it. Our hut is one close to the end of the platform. Kendall inserts the key and opens the door to reveal a luxurious place. There is white furniture, a king-sized bed, and the bathroom is amazingly glamorous. There's a glass window that shows the ocean outside along with the beautiful view. The tub is big enough to fit two people, and it has jets installed. "What do you think?" he asks me.
