Next week. She’d spill everything next week when they were home, and it wouldn’t matter anymore.

Brian
Leaving Rae in his villa to get ready because he needed some distance and also because he didn’t want them to appear too close together when it was time for dinner, Brian headed to the main building of the resort. The entire place was beautiful, but probably like most people, he found himself wandering into the large gift shop. The store had most of the things one would expect from a resort—t-shirts, keychains, hats, sunglasses, bathing suits, and towels, but there was also a section of sex toys. Of which there were plenty of options, though nothing too fancy.
“These are just the display items. If you want something specific, we have a whole catalogue of everything we actually have available on the island.” The guy who had been behind the counter appeared on Brian’s right as he looked over the wall of options. “Anything can be delivered to your room as well. If there’s furniture you want, that can be delivered as well. There’s no fee for the furniture unless it’s damaged during use.”
He vaguely remembered seeing something about that in the brochure, but he probably wouldn’t have recalled it if not for the employee.
“Thanks,” he said, glancing at the nametag on the blue shirt the guy was wearing. “David.”
“You’re welcome! Just let me know if you have any questions.” David ambled away to greet a couple coming into the store. Brian glanced up to make sure it wasn’t any of his friends.
Since he was on his own this week, as far as his friends knew, there was no reason for him to be buying anything from the naughty corner of the store. Thankfully, the couple wasn’t from his group, but it was a good reminder to hurry up. He only had about twenty minutes before they were supposed to meet everyone for dinner at the restaurant.
Thinking about the others also deterred him from looking at the furniture. There was no way he could have furniture delivered to his villa without risking someone seeing and asking questions.
Have you thought about the fact that if you don’t want your friends to know you’re doing something, maybe you shouldn’t be doing it?
The little voice in his head taunted him.
Maybe this was a mistake.
Maybe he shouldn’t have given in to playing sex chicken with Rae.
On the other hand, who was he going to tell?
He didn’t want to disrupt Mitch’s trip—and if Mitch and Domi were paying attention to whatever was going on with him and Rae rather than each other, that would definitely be disruptive. Kincaid and Zach had their own issues going on. And while he was friends with both Nick and Law, it wasn’t like he really knew them the same way he did the other guys. They weren’t really at the ‘talk about important shit’ stage of friendship.
So, it wasn’t so much that he didn’t want to tell his friends as he didn’t want to disrupt what they had going on this week.
Maybe next week, when everyone was home, he could demonstrate that it had been no big deal that he’d hooked up with Rae. That was probably the best way, so he could show them it hadn’t affected him at all. Which would also cut down on the teasing.
Feeling better about his decision, Brian grabbed a pair of remote-controlled vibrating panties off the wall. Just because no one needed to know about him and Rae didn’t mean they couldn’t have some fun while the others were around. Tormenting her while she had to keep quiet sounded like a hell of a lot of fun to him.
They only had one night together, so might as well make the most of it.
He’d give her the remote back tomorrow.
Taking the package up to the register, he smiled at David. The other man grinned back at him, a twinkle in his eye as Brian slid the package onto the counter.
“Ah, good choice. Let me grab you some batteries.”
“Thank you.” He glanced at his watch while David did that. Just enough time for him to get over to the restaurant. “Actually, would you mind if I took it out of the packaging and just took the underwear and remote?”
“Of course.” David slid the batteries onto the counter, not seeming to find anything odd about Brian’s request. A few minutes later, the underwear was safely in one pocket while the remote was in another, and David was tossing the packaging in the trash can under the counter.
Shoving his hands in his pockets and curling his fingers around the remote and the panties, Brian whistled as he headed for the restaurant. To his surprise, the only one in the waiting area was Rae, looking around nervously. Her braids were in ponytails, and she was wearing a cute, short, pink sundress that hugged her body down to her hips before flaring out. A startled laugh burst out of her when she looked up to see him coming in.
“So much for not showing up at the same time,” she muttered as he came closer.
Brian couldn’t help but chuckle. He stood with his back to the door so if anyone came in, they wouldn’t be able to see her. One of the benefits of her being shorter and smaller than him.
“I just got here. We can wait for everyone else, or we can be seated now.”
“Let’s wait for a few minutes to see if anyone else shows up.” He pulled the panties out of his pocket and handed them to her. “Here. Go to the bathroom and put these on.”
