"Guys" Rachel squeals heading up to our door. Shes just climbed out of a cab, with Nate. Glancing around at the views and the grounds as she walks up to us. Matty and Ross are already here. They were just as stunned. None of us realised that Jay had a house like this one in Australia. He has kept everything quiet until now.

The cab heads off and she stares at the cars. The shocking thing is that the ones out front are just the ones we use and don't store in the garage. The Ford ranger, the 4x4 and my brand spanking new Volvo are all here.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNfOVoh7kN
"That's nice" she laughs.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vWsUOuqwL
"That is my new car" I say laughing.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2oJXGooUy
I hug her.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KU6aLpeqG
"I'm glad that Nate is here" I whisper and she pulls back smiling at me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o3Dnd0KRU
I give Nate a big hug and then we invite them into our home. And not for a sex party this time.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJDhL8o3cB
"Oh hey guys" Rachel says to Matty and Ross who are seated at the kitchen island. They nod at her, Ross stands and give's her a hug.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHMnweN9bO
Rachel glances at my arms, she can't help it. The tan massively helped with the bruising. I'm almost completely clear.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxQmQVU1Ul
"Oh I spy a Gucci purse" Rachel says.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL3D4kqpOx
"Mhmm" I say laughing.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhKtB2cOKK
I hand it to her to inspect.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMZZHQixQt
"Oh it's a new one. Current season" she laughs.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoe4wnnzUV
"Jay ugh, likes buying stuff" I laugh.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZF2VHOKeO
She hands it back to me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKFbaHovHJ
"Stunning" she says.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWsJmdPFBh
"We were thinking; let's chill today get over the jet lag. I've got food to feed you all" I smile.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLjYo39GFk
"Plus there's a pool" I say smiling. I notice Jay's arms are firmly around my waist, holding onto me. Possessive Jay makes me happy and needy for him.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BB8csPkPM
I smile up at him and brush his lips with my own. Our steak dinner evening yesterday began with him taking me up to the bedroom and us having sex three times. Before I even managed to get the steaks back on the hob.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJB708ct7e
I glance down at my brown body and smile, I'm wearing a little white dress today, with a white bikini underneath. I wanted to sleep in my makeup and never take it off, but of course I didn't. I'm fresh faced today, just a little bit of lip oil and mascara. I want to keep my skin clear for the big day.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkx1VJ4d76o
I walk over to the wine cooler, and grab a bottle of Prosecco for Rachel. Standing on my tip toes I grab a glass and set it down in front of her.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlVPd0uUVm
"Thank you" she smiles.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2Pxzvx70M
I settle back into Jays arms and I know just what he would be doing if we were alone. Instead his hands caress my thigh, and rest on my waist always holding onto Caleb. Protecting us.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhppFzY8rn
I catch Ross' eyes as everybody talks and I recognise his expression instantly. What I cannot imagine is how hard it is for him to be around me when I'm with Jay. I smile at him and he smiles back before I quickly look away at Rachel who is going on about something. Nate has his arm draped around her and I smile at him.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWVV6p7GKz
"I'm gonna show you what rooms you're in" I say eyeing up the luggage in the hall. Rachel sips her Prosecco and Matty and Jay are talking. They're actually really good friends. I'd not noticed that before, usually I was in the way of their friendship. I kiss Jay and walk out into the hall.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi40Q9u43lc
Ross stands first grabbing his case and following me up the large staircase. I walk him to his room wordlessly. He follows me, and the air is charged around us.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhVup3IEly
He sets his case down on the large king bed. I hover at the door. He turns to face me and smiles walking toward me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6cjNokFha
"These look better" he whispers touching just my arms. He moves past me. No more attention, no more touching. I watch him walk down the hall. Blonde hair scooped back in a surfer style, he's wearing shorts which show off his leg tattoos. He removed his shirt. It's hot. I follow him.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJBZLEfRZ0
He heads down into the kitchen and I hover in the hall eyeing up the bags. I decide to take one up myself. I grab one that looks light.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbOOjBips2
"Surely not" Matty says.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYWFZxtS3b
I jump marginally and he grabs his bag. We take it upstairs and I show him to his room.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPIiBq0XGn
"He still doesn't know" he says softly once we're in the room.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQslamSZWmx
"I haven't told Jay" I say.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydgAQUM6Sn
Matty isn't going to London, Ross isn't either but he doesn't know that yet. Matty straightens up facing the opposite way. Scoops his hair back and pulls his shirt off. I avert my eyes, looking down at the floor. He sighs.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdVStg5oo2
"It's hard lying all the time" he says. And he turns to face me, his face worried.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6r3YFY1y6
"You can just go to London" I say and he smiles.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYQSD0O8zw
"No" he whispers.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrALv4jvq3Y
"What do you mean no" I whisper back.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQWxhPX6d3
"You are my priority" he says. And he hugs me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BL76Xk3cG
"Yes you're with him but you are still my main priority" he whispers.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLUuTwClxi
"Not Ross. Not Rachel. Nor Jay. You" he whispers. He looks down at me casually.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKsiqX5aCd
"How are you ?" He asks seriously. Hands touching my arms and inspecting.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VZCtDZR7I
"Actually okay" I say struck by his bare chest, directly in front of me. He looks into my eyes, deliberating for a moment and then decides to pull away.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qWHJwSCIw
I clear my throat and we head back downstairs.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8ShkzlYhi
“Rachel is this yours” he calls into the kitchen.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi3qioETOp
“Yes darling the heaviest one” she laughs and he picks it up carrying it upstairs over his shoulder.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8T0nVucAfV
“Down the hall” I say softly and he pulls the case to the room for me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgq20SekiE
“Thank you” I say as he sets it down.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhNivw81KE
“No problem” he sighs.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1tcoNDQqr
I turn to the door and he walks closely behind me, following me down the staircase.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQSh29a8z8
“You can carry your own Nate” Matty laughs entering the kitchen.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOoPJLEzhV
Nate laughs and goes and grabs his stuff.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZr3mPHJCEi
“How’s that going” I say once he’s out of earshot to Rachel.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX6SCmdtfL
“Well” she replies.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9SuOFAZmr
“Don’t go into too much detail about the party, I may have glossed over some aspects” she says.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhzueQKFKv
“I won’t” I sigh.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IhXYsI8gV
“So what have you guys been up to then, your hair looks wicked” Rachel says eyeing me up.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCdxBxjUUs
“Jay showed me his surf skills, I had my hair done, I’ve booked a makeup artist for us. Oh and Jay went shopping and came back with a car” I laugh.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiVkC9THlg
“The red Volvo” she laughs.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIyZJqIF1e
“Yes the red one” I say looking up at him. He only smiles down at me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rADE6cn0v
“Oh and my purse” I say looking at my Gucci wallet.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvHTM1qPvw
“Lucky girl” she laughs.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTXSzMlU4v
“Very lucky.” I agree and I kiss him.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cUlHq93WJ
We head out to the pool, and the Australian heat beats down on us. I pull my dress off, inconspicuously. Jay eyes me and he can’t help but to pull my hips into him and kiss me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNHWd0y7Zy
The pool is impressive, around the same size as cherry tree’s pool back home. The water shines and glistens under the heat and I settle on a lounger. Laying back and undoing my bra straps so as not to get tan lines.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaXeifki6W
“You don’t need to catch it! Look at my pasty arms” she laughs at me.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWzH3DzBxp
“Wanna get a spray tan” I ask her.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmkO1aVS4i
“Of course” she says.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDulpeUetUX
“Tomorrow” I laugh.
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKrnHJPsr1
I lay back, just listening to everybody having a good time. I’ve volunteered to cook everybody steak tonight and I will enjoy being busy. Everybody will be too drunk by then to truly critique my food.
