James grinned. “Yes.”

“Can we have sex right after?”

James barked out a laugh at the question. “Baby, just for the record, you never have to ask me for sex. I give it freely … and the answer is always going to be yes.”

“It wasn’t when we first got to the room,” she reminded him.

“And yet, if pressed, the answer still would’ve been yes.”

Mandy inherently knew that to be true. “I love you, James, but I really need you to get my phone before this moment passes. I’m going to show you exactly how much very soon.”

James gave her neck one more kiss before separating. He was just as excited as she was to take photos. This was a moment neither of them would ever forget. “I’m getting your phone,” he said. “After we take the photos you want, can we take a few that I want?”

“What do you mean?”

“Well, sharks do make you horny, baby.”

Mandy realized what he was saying after a moment of contemplation. She was initially horrified but then quickly intrigued. “Okay, but you have to promise never to show the photos to anyone but me.”

“Who am I going to show them to?”

“I don’t know. Maybe you’ll brag to your brothers or something.”

“Yeah, because I’m known for sharing photos of you naked,” James grumbled.

“Just get the phone,” Mandy begged. “I think I might cry soon and I don’t want to cry in my photos.”

“I’m on it, baby,” James said. “Hold on. I won’t let anything ruin this moment. I promise.”
