yellow.
“Jesus, you’re beautiful.”
“No I’m not.”
She blushed pink and swam away, splashing me. I caught her foot and dragged her up against me. Her eyes widened.
I was hard again.
“Don’t you know?”
She avoided my question, wrapping her arms around me.
“I’m going to prove it to you. I’m going to show you how beautiful you are. Every day, if you will let me.”
She rolled her eyes.
“What, you don’t believe me?”
“Trent… you are an amazing guy. And I know you like me. But this is just a fling. Isn’t it?”
I frowned at her, gripping her tightly.
“What are you talking about?”
“You. Your lifestyle. I can’t possibly compete with all those women. And I don’t want to.”
“You don’t have to. You are so much more than any of them ever were to me.”
Her eyes widened. But she still didn’t believe me. She kissed my cheek.
“You have opened up a whole new world for me. And I will never forget it.”
Then she swam away.
I watched her saunter back to the cabana, throwing a flirtatious look over her shoulder. She thought I was a fling. A good time. She didn’t want me for real.
The sun lost its sparkle. The waves were suddenly a cheap and cheesy blue. The beach looked like a worn out old photograph. A postcard someone forgot to mail.
Hurt and anger flooded my body. She wanted to use me? Well, two could play that game.
I would use her right back.
I walked past the cabana toward the hotel. I didn’t stop, even though I heard her feet padding behind me. Once inside I started throwing clothes into the luggage.
“Trent?”
“Let’s go. The captain is ready to take us back.”
She looked at me, surprised hurt in her eyes.
“I thought we didn’t have to leave until tonight.”
I shrugged. She started to say something and stopped.
“What?”
“Nothing.”
Her voice sounded so small, so hurt. For a minute I wanted to pull her into my arms, to tell her that I would be whatever she wanted. A fling. A friend. The love of her life.
Instead I just stared at her, making sure my eyes were cold as ice.
“Spit it out Lexi.”
She shook her head and walked into the bathroom. I stared at the luggage, pulling out the gorgeous silk dress I’d bought her to wear to dinner tonight. I’d made reservations at the fanciest place on the island. It was almost as good as the surf shack. I’d wanted to show her everything I loved about this place, top to bottom.
I stuffed the dress back in, pulling out the tank dress and cashmere cardigan I’d bought her for the flight back.
I laid it out on the bed for her and left, heading to the hotel bar. I needed a drink. Or twelve.
I would not be sober for the flight back, that much was certain.
Lexi
Trent was angry with me. I knew it. I just didn’t know why. He’d disappeared while I got ready, showing up only to grab our luggage and throw a hundred bucks on the pillow for the maid.
I’d said nothing, feeling confused and sad but not sure why.
Now we were in the air. So far he’d spent the flight staring at me from across the cabin. He wasn’t even sitting next to me.
The seatbelt light went off.
“Lexi. Come over here.”
I jumped. There was something cold in his voice that scared me. But I did as he asked.
He pulled his shirt off and unbuttoned his jeans. Then he patted his lap. I started to sit on his lap but he shook his head. He guided me face down over his lap.
“What?”
“Lay down Lexi.”
I felt ridiculous but there was something commanding in his voice. Something that made me do as he said without hesitation.
Slowly, he pushed my dress up and over my ass. I gasped as he pulled my panties down. I moaned as his hand rubbed my bottom softly. The he lifted his hand and brought it down with a loud smack.
“Ouch!”
His hand was back on my ass, making soothing circles. My skin felt super sensitive. And for some reason, I felt myself getting wet.
“That didn’t really hurt. Did it Lexi?”
I bit my
