The Mistress

Chapter 12;

Another quick and short chapter , enjoy!

We were seated on the couch, Jace was watching some show on Netflix about detectives, and I was searching for something nice to do together.

I was hoping to find a nice cabin or a luxurious resort somewhere close to any ocean really.

A nice last minute holiday getaway for us to spend the week we have off together before the chaos that is Christmas hits.

I found the perfect place in Cuba. It was close enough to be doable and far enough to feel as a real vacation.

I excitedly turned to Jace, tapping his shoulder repeatedly to get his attention.

His confusion at my excitement almost made me giggle.

"What do you think about going somewhere tomorrow? We pack our bags today, and return in time for work. I'd like to go here with you so we can relax and enjoy each other for a while before the Christmas chaos comes around.

What do you think?" I asked him expectantly as I scrolled through the pictures of the resort.

I watched his eyes widen with excitement before agreeing with me.

"That looks and sounds amazing. I can't even remember the last time I bothered booking a vacation during my days off." He smiled at me.

So with that in mind, we quickly booked our first class flights, along with a cabin on the water at the resort. Once we were sure we had everything in order we rushed over to Jaces house. 

We may have seemed like giddy idiots but we were being spontaneous and having fun, and it felt so good.

Whilst he was packing his suitcase with trunks and

Polo's, I made sure to let everyone who should know, that we wouldn't be in town for the upcoming week.

Once I was certain that I had contacted everyone, I checked on how far Jace was.

I found him packing a bunch of underwear and once he realized I had stepped into the room he gave me his million dollar smile. A smile I could see for the rest of my life.

I walked over to the open drawer and realized that I saw something interesting. I pulled out the neon yellow abomination and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Jace turned around to see what all the ruckus was about and once he realized what I was holding he instantaneously turned red. 

He stammered and tried to reach it but I kept pulling it away from his greedy fingers.

"My oh my, did you actually buy this by choice? I have to say I'm a bit surprised but I can totally get behind this idea." I said seductively, stretching the fabric in my hands and releasing it. The loud snap of it making my point all the better.

He smacked his forehead before lowly chuckling to himself.

"I don't even remember why I hold on to that thing. A close friend of mine had given it to me on my birthday last year as a gag gift. I never tossed it out, but clearly that was a mistake." He groans before trying to snatch it away from me again.

I dodge his hand before smacking it away as if it were an insult.

"Tsk tsk, don't worry about it. I think we should take it along with us. I'd just love to see you swim in a neon speedo thong. Oeff I'll have to fend off lookers but damn will it be worth it." I teased him before placing it in one of the pockets in the suitcase.

He laughed at my silliness and soon we finished up at his house. Making sure everything was locked and we had all the right papers we went back over to my place.

I quickly packed all of the things I felt were necessary and after everything was ready we placed the suitcases by the door. Along with all the printed tickets, passports etc. So when morning comes we can have breakfast in peace and then be out of the door, hopefully without a concern in the world.

I made my way into the kitchen, opened up the fridge to see what I could whip up for dinner. Trying to use up anything that could spoil. It's a good thing I hadn't done groceries yet.

I settled with some fish and shrimp tacos and quickly got to work, making some salsa an guacamole as the fish sizzled away and the tacos were heating up.

Soon enough Jace came in, plated the table before taking a seat opposite of me, after I reassured him there was nothing else he could help with.

Dinner was served and we spent the rest of the night watching movies before going off to bed so we could be up nice and early for our trip.
