Marianne crossed her arms. “Would you mind helping me pack some clothes?”
Pearl raised her eyebrows. “Right now?”
“Yeah! And you can help too, Em!” Without another word, Marianne sprang out of her seat and hurried out of the room and upstairs.
“I’ll keep an eye on her,” Pearl said. “And I’m sure you two have a lot to talk about as far as this trip goes.”
“Thanks, Pearl,” Logan said.
A few plates of food were on the table. I rose, gathering them together to do my part in helping to clean up.
“Thanks again, Logan,” I said. “I know I said it a million times, but the fact that you did this means so much to me.”
Logan rose from his seat, stepping behind me at the sink and wrapping his big arms around me from behind. It felt so damngood to be held by him like that, like I was so small and so secure all at once. And he must’ve liked it too; his hardness pressed against me, his cock growing stiffer and stiffer by the moment.
Logan kissed my neck before stepping away.
“Let me help,” he said, positioning himself in front of the second sink next to mine and starting on some dishes.
We washed in silence for a time, the scene strangely domestic in its own way.
“The trip,” he said finally. “We need to talk about it.”
“You’re right. You think this is a bad idea?”
“Could be. Your father’s in Long Island, which means we’d be bringing ourselves closer to him. At the same time, he’s no doubt preparing for another assault on the island. If we’re not here, that’d throw a wrench into his plans. Not to mention that Roberto would be coming with us. I trust that man with my life.”
“Yeah. He knows what he’s doing.”
“But there’s still more to think about. I’ll discuss the matter with him and let him know what we decide.”
“Good. Thanks for keeping me in the loop.”
We went back to washing and one thought lingered in my mind.
“You’re thinking about it,” Logan said. “You don’t need to worry.”
I pursed my lips. “I know. It’s just that this thing with my dad is going to come to a head sooner or later, right?”
“Right. And I’d put my money on sooner. But you don’t need to weigh yourself down with that. I’ve got the best private security staff money can buy. If anything, IwantCharles to make his move so I can crush his ass once and for all.”
Logan spoke with total confidence that calmed me down a great deal. I glanced over at him, noticing a small smile on his face.
“What’s up?” I asked.
“Huh?”
“You’re smiling.”
He snorted. “Yeah, I guess I was. Just thinking about… actually, never mind.”
I leaned over and bumped him with my hip. “Come on, you can’t smile like that and not tell me what you’re thinking about.”
He said nothing for a few moments, as if trying to decide how much to tell me.
“Alright. Well, Marta’s memorial got me thinking about my own mom. Both my parents, actually.”
“You haven’t talked about them since I’ve been here.”
