God, poor Mr. Bentley. If only he could hear my idiot friends right now, he’d be disgusted too.
No matter how hot he is, as well as charming and all business-like, there is no excuse to have such illicit ideas… no matter that he’s a thousand times hotter than his son… and he’s probably a virile, horny old bastard.
Clearly, the pair of them can’t be trusted to shut their mouths, so it is best that I change the subject.
He’s swam off to the other end of the pool anyway, lucky for him. I’m sure there’s a harem of women waiting for him wherever he goes.
“We’re not even remotely finished,” Charlize giggles.
I roll my eyes. “Well, I don’t know about you two, but I booked us midnight massages, and I was thinking we could go to the buffet tonight. It’s prepaid, all you can eat.”
One thing that always gets Charlize’s mind off the pepperoni, is swaying her with food.
“Oh my God, you freaking rockstar!” Charlize fist pumps me as Imogen passes the fries around.
“My shoulders are so sore; I need a good rub down,” Imogen says.
“How come everything you say now just sounds sexual?” I mutter.
“Because you won’t admit you have a dirty mind?” she counters.
“I wonder who taught me every dirty, disgusting thing I know, hmm?”
She snickers. “You learnt from the best, and by that, I mean Charlize.”
“Hey, I get away with it because men can’t understand me.” She shrugs. “You can insult them and their manhood, and they’ve got no idea what you’re saying.”
Charlize has always been very confident around members of the opposite sex, not that I haven’t, but I’m no way near as game as she is. She can walk up to a guy in a bar and just strike up conversation. I can’t say I’ve got quite that amount of confidence.
Since James cheated on me, my self-esteem has taken a bit of a hit.
I’m not a bad person. I wasn’t a bitch to him. Sure, we had our ups and downs, and lately we had been fighting a lot, but that’s no excuse to cheat. I thought we were okay; he wasn’t even mean, just very self-centered, and now that I think about it, secretive. Now I know why.
Urgh. I have to stop thinking about him.
I’m here to relax. I know I’ve only been here for a few hours, but already I feel transformed.
Even if I do nothing except lie on this sunbed and read my book the entire time like a slob. Not having to be anywhere feels really nice, and I made a vow to leave all of my stress and worries behind me in Seattle.
There is no going back there.
That chapter of my life is over.
I deserve this, and goddamn it, since I maxed out my credit card, I plan on enjoying every single second.
Oh, and drink tons of Margaritas. That goes without saying.
Chapter Four
Lukas
I stare at my blank computer screen and wonder why the hell I even opened the damn laptop.
I promised myself no work this week, and it’s barely been twenty-four hours.
My first proper vacation in three years, and I’m doing it alone, but that’s how I wanted it.
After recently burying a friend of mine, I had to take off for a while and get out of the city.
