She stands up with baby Lukas who just turned seven months old. I can’t help but admire her for snapping back in shape the way she has. She was tiny to begin with and it’s like nothing happened.

I hope I can be like that too. I really do.

She dips his feet in the water and he giggles. He looks exactly like her but has Gabe’s jet black hair and his nose.

“This is so much fun Mimi,” Charlotte says. “I could stay out here all day.”

“We have,” I point out laughing. She laughs too. We’ve been out here since early this morning and we had lunch.

“Oh my gosh. We’re those women who just lose track of time like we have nothing better to do.”

“Charlotte, I think for the next few weeks we’re allowed to be those women.” I nod.

“Yes. I agree. It’s going to be chaos when we get home and back to work.”

I agreed with that too. I know I’ll be busy like I previously was at the restaurant and the club. She’s a teacher and she already said she wasn’t taking too much maternity leave. She’s had seven months off and is going back next month.

We have another three weeks of paradise and I definitely intend to enjoy it.

I stand up and stretch and a wolf whistle makes me look ahead.

Salvatore and Gabe are walking toward us. Gabe has a batch of fish on a line over his shoulders. Salvatore whistles at me again.

Much as I loved hanging out on the beach I have a special night planned for Salvatore.

I have a surprise I’ve been bursting to tell him. I was waiting for confirmation which I got late last night and I’m going to tell him today.

I rush up to him as they approach and he picks me up and whirls me around.

We love taking the meaning of newlyweds to the next level. Realistically Charlotte and Gabe are still newlyweds because they’ve been married for over a year, but I think we’re a little wilder.

Salvatore hooks me over his shoulder and Charlotte laughs.

“See you guys tomorrow. I’m taking this one now,” he says and I laugh at his craziness.

He walks with me just like that back to our beach house.

It’s not until we get inside that he sets me down on the glass floor. This part of the house is built right over the sea so we can see the beautiful sea bed beneath us.

I don’t even get to catch my breath before his lips are on mine.

I lose my mind just from that and get lost in him as he strips my clothes off layer by layer.

Within seconds we end up in bed tangled together in the silky sheets.

Passion takes us and takes us away from everything.

I remember it being day time and then it was night.

That’s what happens to me when I’m with him. Time is non-existent.

I’ve made him take a break to sit with me on the little veranda.

“Come here, I miss your lips,” he says reaching for me as I walk up to him with a bottle of wine and a bottle of orange juice.

I swat his hands away and giggle. “No, we’re taking a break.”

“Why? What the hell’s this? Are you mixing some kind of cocktail?”
