love - j.w [BOOK 2]

5.

Jeff hadn't told Olivia anything about what they were doing, but judging by the packed suitcases in the back of the car, they were staying somewhere. Jeff said he'd taken care of the babysitter and that this weekend was their weekend. And off they went.

"We're here." Jeff spoke, turning to Olivia. Who was curled up, asleep with her head on her knees. Jeff smiled and gently shook her, which had worked. "We're here. Let's go, baby." They'd grabbed their suitcases and rolled them into the building. It was a hotel, with quite a fancy interior.

"A hotel?" She asked, rubbing her eyes and putting her glasses on. He nodded and grabbed her hand, leading her in. Whilst he had collected the key cards and figured out their room, she had pulled the suitcases over to the elevator, Jeff joining her shortly after. "What exactly are we going to do at almost 8pm?"

"It's not what we're doing tonight, it's what we're doing tomorrow night."

With the question still playing on her mind, she had a shower and was waiting for Jeff in bed. Jeff, having left a while ago to get dinner, hadn't given her any clue as to what was happening tomorrow night. And had left her to ponder on it. But soon enough he was back with dinner.

"Just tell me!" Olivia groaned, putting her empty box of wings in the bin. Jeff giggled and shook his head, not giving in. And after a while, Olivia has given up. Her exhaustion had gotten the best of her as she fell asleep whilst watching a movie. Jeff, still awake beside her, tucked her in and decided on a shower.

After shutting the bathroom door quietly, he turned the shower on and stood underneath the water. He recollected every memory of Grace and Olivia, and how great of a mom she is. Despite her busy YouTube schedule, she still had all the time in the world to be a great mom. And no matter how much of a daddy's girl Grace was, she'd always have a soft spot for her mommy. And taking her away this weekend was not only for their anniversary, but for a break. Grace had a hectic lifestyle and they both barely kept up with it. Luckily, they had amazing babysitters like Natalie and Todd. Jeff turned the water off and got out, drying himself off before slipping on some shorts. And joining his wife in bed.
