THE DEAL: Novel (20 page)

Rising holding out his hand to help her up, but she didn’t accept his hand, standing up without difficulty alone. It was a magnificent evening full of stars with the full moon high above, he didn’t hesitate and before he goes in, he takes his shorts off, she left her bikini on and he went naked.

Seriously?!

Making clear what she was thinking with her expression on her face. He had done it on purpose while he looked at her perceived her thoughts, said to her:

"What? You've seen me naked so many times and there is no one else on the island, what is the problem?!"

"There is no problem at all"

She replied hesitant to get in the Jacuzzi.

The Jacuzzi had space for 8 people, giving almost space to swim in it.

JP as any man he likes gadgets, he quickly found the buttons starting to press in all of them to discover what they could do, and the Jacuzzi gave lights of various colours, giving the illusion that the water changed colour. He found that the Jacuzzi had radio, turned the radio on but didn’t work there and finally found more buttons to make the Jacuzzi bubbling, it had several buttons for each type of bubbles, he could chose bubbles only for the legs or only for the back, or both at the same time, he could even chose several levels of intensity for the bubbles.

Without delay he pressed to maximum, starting almost immediately bubbling everywhere.

They looked like being inside a pot of boiling water and it was somehow funny and tickling.

Thought Carolina making her laughing while she closes her eyes to appreciate the bubbles, she enjoyed the bubbling, massaging all her body making her relaxed. The pressure of the water jets ending in bubbles was just a great pleasure of relaxation, Carolina closed her eyes leaving her body go with the bubbling flow and JP did the same. When both were relaxing and enjoying the water massage their legs touch each other, without taking it away, they remained touching and feeling the water and each other, ignoring the fact they were touching each other. Feeling very tired after about 10minutes, they were already with their skin wrinkled, and Carolina went out of the Jacuzzi. He looks at her without knowing why she was going away and says to her:

"Are you going?"

"Yes, I am feeling very relaxed already"

He laughed, turning to put her head back closing her eyes for a few more minutes. She went taking a shower in the cabin, wearing a new dress and white lingerie. When she were looking at clothes to wear, she looked at the bed and thought that the best is to sleep on the beach bed as usual, she couldn’t dare to sleep inside, she wouldn’t allow to happen anything between them ever again. Leaving the cabin, she looked for the summer blanket to cover herself when it was cold during the night as she went to bed on the beach and falls asleep almost immediately.

JP left the Jacuzzi, turning the Jacuzzi off and covering it he went inside to take a shower when he returned to go to Carolina beach bed to tell her that she could sleep inside without any problem, he saw that she was already fast asleep. He leaned over her taking a careful look at her face and took a lock of hair away from her face touching her slightly with his lips on her cheek, admiring her for a few minutes. He liked to see her, she started to be beautiful in his head, but he couldn’t admit it. He took the summer blanket and covered her, going to his bedroom to sleep. Trying to sleep, but he couldn’t stop thinking about her. Finally he fall asleep and dreamt about her, they were getting married at the beach, wearing the same clothe they had the first day they arrived at the island. They looked happy and very much in love.

Day 5

Carolina woke up very hungry, got up and went to the kitchen in the cabin to prepare her breakfast. When she arrives at the kitchen, he was already preparing breakfast for him. Looking at her, he asks if she wants him to make her breakfast, she appreciates the gesture, but she would like to prepare the breakfast herself. They sit at the table to eat breakfast and he can’t help it and asks:

"Why did you sleep yesterday on the beach in bed again?"

"Because you sleep in the bedroom and as the cabin has only one bed and we are not a couple ... I think you’ve got the answer"

She answered in sarcastic way looking at him while both had breakfast.

"All right, I won’t bother you with it anymore. So what can we do today? We have to create anything to spend time, unfortunately already eliminated sex from our list and the table games, so what can we do next? I ran out of ideas"

She shrugged her shoulders, had no idea. But she remembered that existed outside the cabin a storage room, she never opened it but maybe they would find something interesting there.

"Come with me"

She gets up, when out of the cabin, he goes after her while she had already gone out of the door toward the door of the storeroom. She tried to open the door but she couldn’t, he helped her open it, it was trapped, but with the strength of both, they managed to open the door. For a brief moment they were close together again and she feels that electricity going through her body, feeling his smell and her breath accelerated unintentionally. But now she unknowingly had the same effect on him, when she was very close to him he felt her hair on his face and her smell, and the sweet scent of her skin feeling the desire for her to form in his body. He tried to concentrate in what he was doing there and looked for something they could do in the coming days with the things they could find there.

When they opened the door they saw that there were beach rackets, a beach ball, fishing gear, rescue buoy with a rope, beach chairs, still packed snorkling equipment among other things. They took the rackets and the beach ball to play at the beach.

But before they started playing he said to her, that he was going for a swim, asking if she wanted to join him, she refused of fear they reached the same ending as the day before, she didn’t want to give him more opportunity to take advantage of her weakness. She knew she couldn’t resist him if he came too close, so it was essential to maintain a minimally safe distance.

But now she thought all the time that she would be strong for her, she would resist him at any cost because she didn’t want to let him near her.

I need to resist him at any cost.

But he wasn’t make her life easy, he took all his clothe off and walked naked in front of her, he saw that she was looking at his body, giving him a cheeky look and pretending to be shocking. Then he smiled at her and she gives him a look of not dare, he plays her shorts and t-shirt up dropping with laughter on her, turning his back goes running into the sea plunging returning moments later to surface and start swimming without apparent effort. Carolina looked at him as one admires a Greek Adonis, now she didn’t feel ashamed to look at him and was enjoying the view, though he knew she was watching him, she didn’t care. She fetched a giant poof that was near the beach bed, puts it on the beach with half in water and half out, just to be lying with her legs in the water, waiting for him to finish his swimming routine and to play rackets together.

After about half hour tired of swimming JP went out of the water toward Carolina, catching her off guard throws up wet and naked on her, surprised by his attitude, she screams, trying to push him away instinctively and with all her strength. He leaves off her only when he can put her a wet kiss on Carolina's face, then shook his head leaving the hair dripping wet up to Carolina, forcing her to give a new scream raising her feet and pushing him away.

"Let's play?"

Said JP when he walked away fetching the racquets without waiting for Carolina response.

"Don’t you dress up?"

"Why, we're the only ones here. Ah but first I want to ask you for a favour, I know that every time you go to the bathroom you put sunscreen on your body”

He said smiling to her, trying to convince her.

“You come always from inside with your skin full of cream, could you put a little bit in my back?"

Asks he gently.

"Sure, but put your shorts first on. I'll get the sunscreen inside"

On the way to the cabin she was afraid that putting cream on his body, it could take another step to disaster like it happen before, she needed to be strong for her. She tries to visualize that she will be strong and will be able to go through this one more obstacle. Back to his side with cream and beach towels for them to dry out and lay down on it and to put the cream. He was making sure that he was still naked waiting for her. Carolina didn’t comment, he lies on his back and she puts on her knees beside him beginning the task of putting cream on his neck, shoulders, arms, back, buttocks, and legs gently with hands full of cream to absorb well into the skin with circular movements. After the back, he turns around facing her, and she sees that he is excited, he is looking at her waiting for her to begin to put the cream on the front, but she stops and doesn’t continue.

He knows why, he tries to calm her down saying:

"Don’t worry, it's the effect you have on me constantly, get used to it"

She sighed slightly and couldn’t find any amusement on it anymore. The front massage on him looked like a minefield. But she didn’t want to give weaker party and she wanted to show him once and for all that he wasn’t that important in her life. Putting the cream in both hands, passed them in his shoulders, on his hairy chest, arms and again in his hairy chest that she loved and sighed inwardly, holding back the most she could to continue her mission to finish successful putting the sunscreen. She remembers when was the last time she went with her tongue that beautiful chest of his, the pile yarn he had in the abdomen, jumping the navel and following the belly up to her trimmed pubic hair.

Returning to the present she continues, puts more cream and follows the stomach, belly, legs and his feet. She had to say anything, because she didn’t want the situation fail to appear embarrassing. He was still with an erection and it was distracting her. Estimating that his erection would distract her, he didn’t mean to but he loved every second to see how she was handling the situation and the care that she had not to touch him in his private parts. He felt powerful just knowing she wasn’t indifferent to him, he did it on purpose to cause it, and it was so easy to have an erection with her, even without her to play with, the more she massaged his body with those small, delicate and smooth hands it was enough to stay on. He knew if she touched him to put cream that he would get hard, it would be enough to be ready for her, he wanted her to know the effect she has on him. And then he couldn’t still admit that he was starting to like her a lot, he wanted to think it was just a sexual desire but it started to be something else and he didn’t know.

"Your nails are a little bit big right now, you need to cut them"

He looks at her smiles saying:

"I look also for a pedicure"

"Yes, yes. You wish. If you want to cut them, do it yourself or go to a pedicure”

She said getting up and picking up the rackets and the small ball. She puts a racquet on the top of his stomach challenging him to start playing. He got up, and continued with the erection, she looked at him and said:

"Are you going to play like that?! It is normal for you to be always with an erection?"

Bingo!
- He thought amused –
Goal achieved.

"This is the side effects of you touching me. I had so many erections with my ex-girlfriend with her I could have five orgasms a day, I used to walk constantly with a ready erection for her, it was crazy, and she was an addiction"

Oh no comments about the perfect ex-girlfriend again
- she thought sad, but ignoring to feel that way. Watching her and waiting to see a reaction from her.

"My friend a cold shower, have you two met?!"

"So many times my friend"

He said with a laugh.

Both laughed and began to play with rackets, after some time they were tired and bored, then they began to play with a ball, making marks on the sand trying to make a football field. He had the fastest moves and he wouldn’t let her bring the ball to score a goal. Seeing that she had no chance to score a single goal, she steals the ball and starts running to score, she puts the ball on the floor right just to give a small kick even when he's coming to get the ball to take it from her.

"That is cheating, it’s not fair!"

He screams pretending to be upset and protesting if it was the worst thing in the world what she just had done. Taking her by the waist, she starts kicking him to let her go and screams, he is decided to penalize her that she had cheated and throw her into the water when she returns to the surface taking a few steps back with a smile plunging toward him. Her idea was pulling his toes, trying to get him lose his balance in the water, but he was prepared for her and saw her coming over to him, he dives also and goes to meet her under water, putting his lip on her lips, she immediately rises to the surface to end the kiss, he follows her.

"Sorry, it was a spur of the moment"

He apologized.

"Please don’t repeat trying to be funny, if we are friends, we really are just friends, there will be no more, and I'm serious. Please respect my decision"

"Can you decide to be friends only when we leave the island? Can’t we be special friends and have some fun until we leave?!"

"No!"

"All right, if that's what you want, I just have to respect it"

"Look, we have to stay here two more days together, rather than each stay in a separate corner, we can enjoy ourselves as friends and concentrate on what we have to do when we leave here and then you never need to see me again, it's very simple"

He looks at her, surprised by the comment. 

She was now so determined and confident, is that how she really is, was she always like this or is it is only now?! I always loved a good challenge and she is challenging me
–

He thought determinate not leaving her of sight anymore not even when they arrive in London.

Now was JP who was determined not to let her go, now that he was slowly discovering her and loving it, he needed to know more about that woman, she aroused him with so much desire, he couldn’t explain why. Decided to go to the bottom of the question to find it out, he would persuade her.

Perhaps they could always meet at his house, discreetly, when they arrive in London.
–

He give it a thought but discard it immediately, thinking she would no longer believe enough in him to go to his house like she went the first time. Now he knew he wanted her in his bed, but things changed and he wasn’t sure if she wanted him anymore, there was only one way, he needed to be near her, he wanted her to feel safe with him. Knowing he would have a bad time to get her right where he would like her to be, he was decided to give her time.

"Are you hungry? Will we eat something? Today it's my turn to cook, but I have to warn you, I don’t cook and my experience is very limited"

Taking her hand and let her out of the water, she let him taking her hand and they went hand in hand to the towels. She began to laugh at the idea that he would cook.

"What are you doing for lunch? I think it must be a lunch plus dinner, just look at the sun's position"

Carolina couldn’t help but continuing laughing at his idea.

"It's a surprise" he said winking his eye.

She laughed and shook her head.

"It must be good"

Caught in towels, dried and went to the cabin.

JP goes to the refrigerator pulls out an aluminium paper dish with a roast ready, which had previously taken to thaw, it was now only heat it in the oven setting the table and filling the glasses of rosé wine she sits at the table waiting for the roast. He wants to know more about her and begins to ask questions.

"Do you like to travel? What countries do you know?"

"I love travelling. I know many countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and South America and central America"

"Do you know New York?"

"Actually I've never been, but it is a city in my list to go for a long time"

"I spend half the time in London and the other half in New York, it is a magnificent city"

"Do you have companies outside the UK?"

She was surprised. He had won her absolute respect, someone who fought alone against the world and has achieved international success, he reminded her father or maybe not.

He really created an empire
.

"I have companies in both countries all linked to fashion. Since modelling agency, advertising, photography and films"

"Wow that's a lot. You must be Mr. Grey, the British version ha-ha" She said laughing.

“Congratulations you seem to be a very successful business man and you are a very smart one too. You are the type of man who can make any woman proud of his accomplishes”
