I turned my body around, still smiling. "Say whatever nasty little thing you want, you cannot ruin my mood. This view just makes me happy."
And it did, something so irrelevant to most people – like dickhead Alec – made me very happy. I always did enjoy the little things in life.
"So, now that we're here what's the plan?" Alec asked me as I finished unpacking my suitcase.
I placed all my clothes into the wardrobe, there was only one so Alec said he was cool with his stuff staying in his suitcase on the floor. I didn't argue with him and just did as I wanted and put my things away.
I glanced at Alec when he spoke and shrugged, "I know you're here so I can rub you in Jason's face, but I don't really want to go lookin' for them right now. If we bump into them or anyone I know that is attendin' the weddin' then so be it. But if we don't, I think we should just chill on the beach by ourselves since it's mornin' time here."
"That's fine by me. Once I can lie down, I'm happy."
I smiled. "You're tired?"
Alec was currently lying on the bed we would be sharing throughout this death sentence.
"I didn't sleep at all on the flight over here, I'm still on Ireland time, and it's evening time there."
I whistled. "Maybe you should have taken a sleepin' tablet yourself so you could have gotten some shut eye on the plane."
"Nah, I wouldn't have been able to look after you if I was out cold too."
I swallowed. "You didn't have to look after me, Alec."
He sat up on the bed and looked down at me from my position on the floor.
"I know I didn't have to, but I wanted to."
That was so... sweet.
"Well, thank you. I appreciate it," I mumbled and looked down to my make up bag, fiddling with the products so I could keep my head down and escape the embarrassment of Alec seeing my flushed cheeks.
He wanted to look after me!
I wanted to smile but kept my face passive and aimed down as doubt entered my mind.
I hated that I couldn't just accept his gestures of being sweet and genuine because in the back of my mind a voice told me he was only doing all this to get into my knickers. The more he buttered me up by being sweet, the easier it would be to slide my knickers off.
I wasn't being paranoid with my thoughts either, he has flat out told me he wants to fuck me and will fuck me by the end of this trip. I just have to keep my guard up to avoid that happening.
"Are you okay?" Alec's voice asked, which got my attention.
I cleared my throat. "Yep, I'm grand, just thinkin' about how Aideen is gettin' on with Storm."
"One of them might be dead - my money is on it being Aideen."
"Alec!" I shouted. "Don't say somethin' like that!"
Alec howled with laughter. "I'm playing, I'm sure they're fine and will be fine for the rest of this vacation. Don't worry about them."
Easy for him to say, he didn't know what Storm and Aideen were like when they were left alone for long periods of time. I dreaded to think of the damage that could be done, war could easily erupt between those two.
"Maybe I should call. You know, just to check in."
Alec lay back down on the bed and waved me on with his hand. "Go ahead then, mama bear."
I smiled as I crawled over to my bag and dug out my phone. I typed in Aideen's number and waited for it to go international. The phone rang a few times before Aideen answered.
"Hey, you arrived safely?" Aideen asked when she answered.
I grinned. "No, we died. I'm callin' to tell you that you get to keep Storm forever now that I'm dead."
Alec snorted while Aideen huffed over the phone.
"Over my dead body, he will be put in a kennel so fast you would turn in your grave!"
How lovely.
"Things aren't goin' well then?"
"He chewed my gym runners up, they are completely destroyed and in the bin. The fat fucker did it on purpose, I know he did."
I held back a chuckle as I said, "He is brave for puttin' his nose anywhere near your runners."
I heard her dramatic gasp then a firm, "Fuck you!"
I did laugh then. "Don't get your knickers in a twist, I'm jokin'."
"Sure you were."
I smiled. "Jokin' aside, is everythin' okay?"
"Yeah, he is fed and sleepin'. I'll bring him out for his second walk later."
Hold the phone.
"Second walk, what do you mean second walk?"
I looked at Alec when he sat up on the bed and before Aideen spoke, I knew exactly what she was going to say.
"Alec told you to bring him out twice, didn't he?"
"Yep, to help shift the fat fucker's fat."
I narrowed my eyes at Alec and growled at Aideen, "Stop. Callin'. Him. Names."
"I will when he stops eatin' me shoes and growlin' at me all the time. I'm the only one here to feed him so he better learn quick."
It was like I was talking to a five year old.
"I'm not arguin' with you. Just take it easy on him when you're out walkin'."
"Aye, Captain."
Smartarse.
"Thanks, look I'll ring you-"
"Have you had sex with Alec yet?"
Is that all she bloody thought about?
"No, I have not have sex with Alec and I won't be havin' sex with him either. You're worse than him for goin' on about it!"
I could feel Alec smiling as I spoke.
Aideen laughed. "Yeah, yeah. When you do finally buck him I want to hear all about it. Every sexy little detail."
She was a male inside a female's body.
"Goodbye, Aideen."
"Slan!" Aideen sang and laughed as she hung up.
"You should take Aideen's advice and fuck me."
How romantic.
"Put a sock in it, Romeo," I grunted as I folded my arms across my chest.
Alec lay back down on the bed and patted his stomach. "Feel free to straddle me at any given time."
