"Your heart is on my sleeve, did you put it there with a magic marker?" U2-Ordinary love

It was the last week of their honeymoon on Bora Bora. White beaches and clear blue waters greeted them everyday. The two lovebirds were lying in a hammock right outside their cabin. A sultry wind caressed their bodies. Riele wore braids to protect her hair from the seawater. She was clad in an ink blue one-piece swimsuit, with a light shawl covering her shoulders, while Jace had on blue swimming trunks, a hat and sunglasses to protect his fair skin. Riele made sure that she sprayed him with sunscreen every few hours otherwise he may end up looking like a lobster.

The spend their days and nights in each other's arms. Every now and again they resurfaced to eat or bathe and then they just went right back into their love bubble.

"Are you happy, Mrs Norman?" he asked. He just loved calling her Mrs Norman. And she just loved hearing him call her that.
She lifted her face and smiled at him."The Happiest."

Part 1: Married Life

"What is that smell?" Jace was nibbling on her ear and his head quickly shot up. "Oops, I think that's my cue. "
He ran through to the kitchen, leaving Riele smiling. He was making breakfast for them but he was more distracted by his beautiful wife than anything.
She was leafing through a few fashion magazines, looking for inspiration.

"Jace, everything alright in there?" she asked.
"Uhh" came the answer.
"Is that the smoke alarm going off, Jace?"
"Noooo.... "

She heard a crash and winced, but made no move to get up. He told her that he was serving her today.

Moments later, a head peeked around the door.
"Honey, I think I'm gonna order us some breakfast."
She smiled. "Okayyy."

She couldn't contain the happiness she felt. It was evident in the glow on her face and her soft smile. She reflected on their whirlwind wedding.

After he proposed, she was shocked to hear they were getting married immediately. Jace had everything planned to the last detail. All she had to do was show up and say "I do."

The di Cento's were surprisingly understanding to let her go on such short notice. She did not think that she would return but Gianlucca let her know in no uncertain terms that she was welcome to return if she ever felt like it.
It wasn't easy to part with all the friends that she had made in Italy, especially Mia and her family. It was a particularly teary-eyed farewell for them.
"Mia, sweety, I'm going to miss you so much"
"Oh, Bella, you are going to make me cry... But I don't want to cry, because I am so happy for you."
Riele promised to buy her plane tickets to come visit as soon as they have settled down.
