The look on Spencer’s face when I suprised her lasted the entire ride to the airport. We stopped on the way and dropped Jayden at the Carlin’s for the weekend. THere were happy to have him and was more than relieved when Arthur had said he was able to convince Paula to allow it.

We took the shortest flight I could find to HAwaii and arrived within a few hours. After we had landed, we got into the car I rented for us and it took us back to the hotle we’d be staying at; it was a five star, six story building that sat right on the beach. It also included things like a heated pool [with waterslide, in-water bar, and hot tub], a recreational room, small casino in the basement, and a work out room [with another pool]. Spencer and I found our room on the 6th floor and hauled our bags through the door. The room was huge – there was a kingsized bed in the room to the left, there was a kitchen, a huge bathroom and a nice entertainment center in the open space serving as a living room. There was a set of double doors off of the living room that led to a balcony which looked out at the water.

“Oh … my gosh. Baby, I cannot believe you did this! Look at this place! It’s amazing!”

“You’re amazing” I looked into Spencer’s eyes and spoke seriously, “this is our special weekend, okay? From now on. I hope you like here, babe.” I leaned down and kissed her on the lips, closing my eyes. I closed the door using my foot and slowly walked us farther into the room, tightening my grip on my girlfriend’s waist. I felt her loosen up and she allowed me to lower our bodies to the bed. I didn’t break the kiss at any moment – there was no way I’d let that happen, thid moment was too perfect. With my body on top of Spencer’s our kiss intensified; she parted her lips, allowing my waiting tongue entrance. My heart was full – I couldn’t remember the last time Spencer and I had shared a moment like this one. I allowed my lips to leave hers, and I trailed down her neck, but I stopped when I felt my emotions mold from a need to a want. And I didn’t want this to turn inro some kind of wild night – not yet at least. So, I rolled over and allowed myself to lie next to her.

“Baby, why did you stop?” Spence turned to and looked over at me.

“I don’t want this trip to be about sex, Spence, so I’m not going to focus on that. I’m only thinking about us.”

“But Ash, what if I want to focus on sex for a minute? It’s not like that’s the only thing we do!”

“I know – it’s been months since we have and that’s why I’m not going to jump into it now.”

“Which is so not like you!”

“Yeah, but this way I don’t make it seem like that’s the only reason I planned this trip.”

“But it is why you planned the trip, right?”

“It was a bonus.” I whispered while running my hand up Spencer’s inner thigh and kissing her once more.

“Ashley! You are such a tease!” Spencer called after me as I left the room to bring in our stuff. We both took ourr things and placed them around. After everything was finished, we sat outside together on the balcony.

The lawn chair was big enough for both of us, and I allowed Spencer’s slender body to sit in between my legs and she reclined over my stomach so that her head was just under my chin. I placed my hands on top of hers, which were sitting at her waist, and I intertwined our fingers. We then laid there together, soaking in sun rays, drinking iced tea, and talking for the rest of the morning.
