I lay bored in mine and Matthew's shared bed. He left for his meeting at four, and it's currently eight. I didn't expect to take this long. I stand up and peek out the window. I see that the hotel hot tub is empty, and I brought my bathing suit because Matthew had informed me about the pool and hot tub. I could go for a dip. I have nothing else better to do.

I quickly undress and pull on my bikini. I open the linen closet and wrap myself in the hotel's robe. It's actually really cozy.

It's colder outside then I anticipated. I feel goosebumps form on my skin making me walk faster towards the hot tub. I unwrap my robe and dip my foot in. It's the perfect temperature.

I fully submerge myself and let out a deep breath. I rest my head on the edge of the hot tub and close my eyes. The sound of rippling water surrounds me and it's peaceful. I could almost fall asleep.

I wake up abruptly when I feel some water splash on my face. I look over to see an amused Matthew sitting across from me in the hot tub. I splash him back and he rushes towards me. I burst into fits of laughter as he tickles my sides.

"Okay! I give up!" I yell out and he stops. I'm out of breath from the tickle attack. Matthew settles next to me with his hand on my thigh. I try to ignore the subtle touch.

"How was the meeting?" I ask when I catch my breath. I watch him shrug.

"Boring. I missed you though." He smirks and I roll my eyes.

"How smooth, Matthew." I giggle. His hand moves from my thigh to around my waist and he pulls me closer to him. I look over at him to see he's already staring at me. My eyes land on his lips again just like last night. I've already prepared myself for him to deny me.

"Can I ask you something, Lydia?" My eyes meet his again.

I nod my head.

"Can...can I kiss you?" His voice is barely a whisper.

"Yes." I whisper back. Matthew's lips press against mine passionately. They're just as soft as I imagined. Our lips move in sync and I can feel my heart beat rapidly in my chest. We pull apart to catch our breath.

Our foreheads stay connected with our noses rubbing each other. I bite my lip trying to cover up my smile. I feel his large hand squeeze my waist tighter. I quickly move so that I'm straddling his lap. I reconnect our lips and this kiss is somehow even more passionate than our first. My hands run through his damp brown curls while his wander my body. He moves his lips from mine and moves them down my jaw to my neck. I feel him lightly suck on a sensitive spot and a soft moan escapes my lips. I slowly move my hips against him and I hear him grunt against me.

I feel him stop and he moves his lips to my ear, "Want to take this upstairs?"
