"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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwvCpsqLmI
"That's nice" she laughs.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0t9sUwmzEs
"That is my new car" I say laughing.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1qVqLr0yK
I hug her.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKUgsV5vaV
"I'm glad that Nate is here" I whisper and she pulls back smiling at me.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOFY5jbLfG
I give Nate a big hug and then we invite them into our home. And not for a sex party this time.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlUfwBsW9E
"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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelYrBYnia8
Rachel glances at my arms, she can't help it. The tan massively helped with the bruising. I'm almost completely clear.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gifZ71xFC
"Oh I spy a Gucci purse" Rachel says.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnYDgq1qXZ
"Mhmm" I say laughing.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkwwNJbVGR
I hand it to her to inspect.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAfsueYo6X
"Oh it's a new one. Current season" she laughs.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBSClDxOZm
"Jay ugh, likes buying stuff" I laugh.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNsHrWqFgm
She hands it back to me.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytvBycKoyh
"Stunning" she says.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZccgygc8Yx
"We were thinking; let's chill today get over the jet lag. I've got food to feed you all" I smile.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oKSuSPujA
"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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGluYsw2Ys3
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmE9fG9X50S
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOeN5akwAl
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpepJeXAVna
"Thank you" she smiles.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq4h9mdLNL
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYVzbisEUw
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdRO0kBRff
"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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xPica3364
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5X8K8M4TP
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcAAUXEpet
"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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf9yJ4cTOq
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3K8j8w9aM
"Surely not" Matty says.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmD7BeMj56B
I jump marginally and he grabs his bag. We take it upstairs and I show him to his room.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf38YzDlUDZ
"He still doesn't know" he says softly once we're in the room.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNJBta3Nyn
"I haven't told Jay" I say.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FQ7g0uAK7
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemWCASBTXM
"It's hard lying all the time" he says. And he turns to face me, his face worried.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6jROWXZDe
"You can just go to London" I say and he smiles.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReXMuu7Sno
"No" he whispers.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43UPqi7y4J
"What do you mean no" I whisper back.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwIospEWtL
"You are my priority" he says. And he hugs me.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCSFy15bJJ
"Yes you're with him but you are still my main priority" he whispers.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VtNd6p3k4
"Not Ross. Not Rachel. Nor Jay. You" he whispers. He looks down at me casually.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd29dny7m8
"How are you ?" He asks seriously. Hands touching my arms and inspecting.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bMCFIYIve
"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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRP7cC1kuf
I clear my throat and we head back downstairs.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZCPyl5d78
“Rachel is this yours” he calls into the kitchen.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyrjx1KJOo
“Yes darling the heaviest one” she laughs and he picks it up carrying it upstairs over his shoulder.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1X0m3A3lb
“Down the hall” I say softly and he pulls the case to the room for me.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWLmuGM3OI
“Thank you” I say as he sets it down.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsIVGrFcQB
“No problem” he sighs.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zoOfpYujc
I turn to the door and he walks closely behind me, following me down the staircase.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1T0KGnFoB
“You can carry your own Nate” Matty laughs entering the kitchen.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e5JUGoEis
Nate laughs and goes and grabs his stuff.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU742dCL8p
“How’s that going” I say once he’s out of earshot to Rachel.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Au653XkRh
“Well” she replies.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZtWaHxEpk
“Don’t go into too much detail about the party, I may have glossed over some aspects” she says.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWIMICiLhd
“I won’t” I sigh.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiax5lyqxos
“So what have you guys been up to then, your hair looks wicked” Rachel says eyeing me up.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoKAjPokNy
“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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84gflUmOCI
“The red Volvo” she laughs.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPK5j1fF3d
“Yes the red one” I say looking up at him. He only smiles down at me.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWoYndSqM4
“Oh and my purse” I say looking at my Gucci wallet.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJdI3JSsdg
“Lucky girl” she laughs.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyKZcnWxxv
“Very lucky.” I agree and I kiss him.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiY4RgOnDy6
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf7TP29Hyz
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.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ336KfTp2sU
“You don’t need to catch it! Look at my pasty arms” she laughs at me.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuIxMWNDOC
“Wanna get a spray tan” I ask her.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYrAIhLZz4
“Of course” she says.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgm35pf5MjF
“Tomorrow” I laugh.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycXEbpr141
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.
