Arielles POV
I smiled as I looked myself over in the mirror. I looked good for once and felt hella confident. My straight brown hair cascaded down my back, one side tucked behind my ear. My makeup was very simple; bit of foundation, powder, bronze, highlighter and mascara, that did it. Around my neck hung my favourite necklace; it was real silver with a small diamanté heart. My mum had got it for me not long before she passed so it holds a lot of meaning to me.
My eyes floated down to my outfit, it was a little more dressy but I liked it. I was actually wearing a dress Noah had picked out for me, mainly because he said that, and I quote, "you'll look fucking sexy in this and Ill want to rip it off you when we get back later". So here I am, wearing a mid thigh red body con dress that showed off my curves just perfectly. I also had paired it with some red heels that weren't too high but just the perfect height."Are you read- woah." A voice startled me from behind. I turned around, looking at Noah who was stood in the doorway, his jaw agape.
"How do I look?" I laughed a little, giving him a small spin. I watched as he quickly shut the door, his back pressing up against it and a smirk playing on the corner of his lips.
"I might have to rip your clothes off right now." He slightly growled, starting to walk up to me. I laughed, scrunching my nose up at his words. Not much of a turn on to me I guess. Lol.
"I'll have you know, this is a very expensive dress so I'd much appreciate it if you took it off with care." I fought back a smile, wrapping my arms around his neck.
"Meh, I'll just buy you another one." He shrugged before his lips came crashing down on mine. The kiss was passionate and heated, like we'd both been longing for this moment for a while.Before I knew it, my back was pressed up against the wall, my breath hitching in my throat as our tongues fought for dominance. Noah was such a good kisser and every kiss just seemed to get better and better. Maybe I'm really in love with this boy.
"Kids, come on! Tables booked for six!" I heard Kelly shout out to us. I pulled back from Noah, giving him a few more pecks before grabbing my bag and heading to the bedroom door.
"God, your ass." I heard him gasp from behind me. I turned around, laughing.
"It's nothing on yours." I gave him a slight wink before heading to the kitchen where dad and kelly were gathering up some bits."You look lovely, Ari." Kelly beamed as she looked me over.
"Well I do try." I gave her a little bow, laughing.
"I thought we were going to explore the central?" Noah asked, stuffing his phone in his jean pocket.
"We were but we've found a 5 star rated restaurant so we thought we'd give that a shot." My dad shrugged, twisting the car keys around on his index finger.
"Are we ready then?" He asked, looking among the three of us. There was a little chorus of yes's and then we were on our way.Noah and I sat in the back of the car, giving each other the occasional glance. He even tried to hold my hand at one point but I gave him a look as if to say "they're right there". The last thing we want is to get caught on this holiday. It'll ruin it for everyone. So we kept our hands to ourselves in the end, just glancing at each other. It was like our eyes had sex, I can't even explain. He just has that look that makes me weak at the knees. Goodness me.
The restaurant wasn't far from our villa, only about a 15 minute drive. We parked up in the car park, heading inside where they showed us our table almost instantly. It's beautiful in here. Wow. The walls were a deep red colour, chandeliers scattered around on the ceiling. Most probably the prettiest restaurant I've ever been to.
Once we were escorted to our table, the lady left us menus and we all took our seats. My dad opposite Kelly but next to me and myself opposite Noah who sat beside his mother.
"It's lovely here." Kelly beamed, looking around the restaurant in awe. It really was lovely, way too fancy for someone like me but whatevs.
I looked up at Noah who was scanning the menu, his eyes quickly glancing up at me and then back down to his menu whilst he fought off a smile. He looked so good tonight. His hair was perfectly messy, just how I liked it and he wore an ironed white shirt that really complimented his broad build. I bit down on my bottom lip, tearing my gaze away from him before I couldn't control myself any longer. What does this boy do to me? Holy moly...
"Whats everyone having then?" My dad snapped me out of my somewhat dirty thoughts of Noah. I looked back down at my menu, licking my lips. Everything sounds so good right now.———
After ordering our food, we sat around the table sipping on our drinks and having a good old chinwag.Noah got up to use the restroom about 5 minutes ago leaving my dad, kelly and myself talking about all the different things we could do here in Bora Bora.
"We have a whole week, there's plenty to do." Dad smiled, sipping his beer.
"Tomorrow we were thinking of heading to the beach for the day, possibly even go snorkelling." Kelly added, a wide grin spread across her face. I wasn't a very big fan of swimming with fish and baby sharks...
"We don't all have to stay together obviously." My dad looked at me.
"You can always wander off and do your own thing, same goes to Noah." Dad watched as Noah sat back down at the table, running a hand through his hair.
"What?" Noah asked.
"We were just discussing that we don't all have to stick together, you can both go and do your own things if you like. Just stay safe." My dad chuckled lightly.
"It'll be nice bonding time for you both if you went off together." Kelly smiled, looking between her son and myself.
"I'll think about it." I nodded my head, taking a sip of my wine.I'm kind of excited to see what this week has in store. We're very far from home and that's what makes it so exciting.
