----------------------------- Grecian Pleasure --------------------
Asia sighed as she stood next to Lex in her white, fluffy, terry cotton robe. For the past week, she had been worrying over how to break the news to their parents. She had been stressed out by not only trying to figure out how to break the news, but also working on her book. The fact that Lex also kept coming to see her on a constant basis and distracting her from what was important made her even more frustrated. They had only come here because Lex, after trying to get her to come into his arms, finally told her about his parents regular trip to the spa. After hearing this, she organized the day and things were finally looking up.
At the thought of the man next to her, Asia peaked at him from beneath her lashes. He looked bored, leaning against the wall, waiting for their parents to arrive. His robe was open slightly at the top, showing his hard muscled body. The robe was tied loosely, and she could see his black swimming trunks, which were falling slightly from his hips. As he shifted slightly, she looked up at his face, but he wasn't looking at her. She followed his eye and watched as 3 people walked through the door.
In the group, there were 2 females and 1 male. The man, who looked the oldest of the 3, held the door open for the two ladies who walked in behind them. His face, probably once handsome, was hard and made him look cold. His skin was pale and was a complete contrast to the all black he was wearing. His gray eyes were watching the two ladies with him, not noticing the fact that his long, black hair was falling into his face. As he turned forward again, it was obvious that this had to be Lex's father.
The woman next to him, who had to be at least half a foot shorter then him, with hair the same color as his. The only difference was that her hair was thick and curly and long, falling down to the middle of her back. Her skin was olive colored, showing that she couldn't be British. Her high cheek bones and delicately carved face made her a natural beauty. Her eyes were a light blue color and were sparkling with joy. Her light blue sun dress with it's matching heals made her the brightest person in the group.
The last female in the group had a smirk on her doll-like face. She had to be Lex's sister. Her body was curvy, just like her mother's. She had same blue-gray eyes as he did, her eyes light then his. Her hair was thick and curly, just as his was, but her hair, like her mother's, hung down to the middle of her back. She was just as tall as Lex, both of them the same height as their father, who had to have been at least 6'2". The only difference between them was that she had inherited her complexion from her mother, where Lex got his complexion from his father.
"Hello dearest," His mother said, giving Lex a hug.
"Mother," he said, returning the show of affection and kissing her cheek.
"How have you been doing?" she asked, standing back and looking him over. "Have you been eating well?"
"Marcella," his father said, rolling his eyes at her and taking out a cigar. "Stop worrying over the boy."
"I'm his mother, Alex," Marcella said, looking angrily at her husband. "I'm supposed to worry."
"Asia," said a voice in her ear.
She jumped and spun around to face her parents. Her father's handsome and pale face looked amused, as though he found her shock to be funny. He was tall, standing at 6'5", and towered over her by half a foot. His short black hair was straight and fell into his face as he looked down at her. His deep blue eyes sparkled with amusement. Even though his frame was strong and muscled, he was a happy person. Her mother on the other hand……
"Jonathan," she snapped, looking annoyed. "Stop playing around so much."
She glanced at her mother, who had looked the same all her life. Even though she had over 10 children, her frame was still thin and curvy. Her hair still came to the small of her back, and was still it's normal, thick, mass of curls. Her face was still beautiful, with her high cheek bones, and her skin was still its caramel color, unaffected by age and the sun. She was a naturally happy and sweet person, but was annoyed easily and made Asia's life a living hell.
"Catherine," he said, looking down at his wife. She was the same height as Asia, standing at 5'11" and he had too look down at her always. "I was only joking. Don't act like this now. I said I was sorry."
"I don't think you are," Catherine said, turning her head away from her husband.
"Of course I am," Jonathan said, wrapping his arms around his wife. "You know I love you."
"You're not acting like it."
"I do," He kiss her temple, wrapping his arms tighter around her and bringing her against him. She turned in his arms to face him and turned her face up for his kiss. It started out as a peck on the lips, but turned into a passion filled snog before Asia knew it.
"Mum?" Asia said, hoping they could heat her. This was disturbing and she wanted it to end. "Dad? HELLO?"
"What?" her father asked, pulling away.
"I didn't bring you out here so you could snog," she said, annoyed. "We're here for a reason."
"Why are we here exactly?" her mum asked.
"Mother," she said, grabbing Lex's arm and facing him toward her parents. "Father. This is my boyfriend, Lex. Lex, these are my parents."
"Hello dearest," her mother said, shaking Lex's hand. "It's so nice to meet you, isn't it Jon? Jon?"
Jon was watching Lex, sizing him up. He was ignoring his wife's attempts to get his attention and was just watching Lex, a murderous expression on his face. Lex gulped in sheer terror at the look he was giving him, which seemed to make Jon smile.
"You have to excuse him," Catherine said, making sure he could hear her. "He seems to have lost his mind."
"These are my parents," Lex said, gesturing to the people behind him. "And my sister."
"Nice to meet you," Lex's mother said, extending her hand. "I'm Marcella Ford. You'll have to excuse my husband, Alex. He seems to think that smoking isn't a bad habit."
"I don't talk about your religion," Alex sneered, cigar in hand. "Don't talk about mine."
"You'll have to excuse mine also," Catherine said, acting no one had said anything. "He seems to think he can kill your son with his eyes."
The only way you could tell he knew what she was saying was by the way his eyes twitched slightly once she finished talking.
"Let's go get a massage," Asia suggested, trying to get things under control.
"That's women's stuff," Alex said, rolling his eyes. "We're going to the steam room."
And he walked off, Lex and Jonathan not far behind them.
"Finally, the tyrant is gone," Marcella cried.
"Mother," Lex's so far quiet sister said.
"Alexis," Marcella said, looking at her daughter. "You're sticking up for the man that wanted to name you Porsche."
"He's still my father," she said, rolling her eyes.
"Let's get that massage," Marcella said, ignoring her daughter.
"Maybe a wax afterward too," Catherine agreed. "It's been a while since I got my last Brazilian."
And this started a conversation of waxing between the 2 mothers and traumatized their two daughters.
----------------------Many hours later in the entrance hall------------------
"Why are you walking like that?" Lex asked as Asia and the other women joined them in the entrance hall. After a while, her father had calmed down and things had gone rather smoothly.
"I got waxed," Asia told him.
"What's so bad about that?" he asked, looking down at her, amused.
"I got waxed DOWN THERE and I'd rather not talk about it," she said, her left eye twitching. He noticed it was the same thing her father had done earlier when he was thinking about killing him and dropped the subject. Instead, he looked her over, taking in the black tube dress. Easy access, he thought and smiled.
"So where are we going to Lunch?" Jonathan asked, holding his wife around her waist.
"When are we going?" Alex murmured, lighting another cigar. "What?" he asked at his wife's look. "I'm starved."
"I thought it'd be nice to go to this place not too far from here," Asia said.
"Let's go then," Alex urged. "The faster we get there, the faster we eat."
Without another word, they walked out and left the spa.
********************************** Roman Experience **********************
Once the waiter left, the questions began.
"So," Marcella started. "How long have you been together?"
"Two years, 5 months next week," Asia said, answered, smiling at her.
"How did you meet?" Catherine asked, taking a sip of her tea.
"Remember when I had gone to that really dull party at Marie's?" Asia said, taking a roll and buttering it for Lex since he was having trouble doing it himself. "I left her party and went to this club, and we started talking and everything."
"Why didn't you say anything before now?" Alexis asked, watching us.
"She told me not too," Lex said, taking with his mouth full.
"Manners Lexus," his mother said, rolling her eyes. "You don't wanna be like your father."
"What's wrong with me," he asked, looking offended.
"You're disgusting and have no manners, that's what's wrong with you."
As the argument went on, Asia asked Lex, "Do they always fight like this?"
"Yeah," he said, finishing his roll. "Then, they get all mushy and start making out. It's really nasty."
By the time the waiter was back, they weren't talking to each other.
"So why are you telling us about you two now?" Jonathan asked, curious.
"Well," Asia said. "We wanted to get married."
At this statement, Jonathan choked on his wine.
"I know you think we're young and everything," Asia said, hoping to calm him down. "But, we feel we're ready to make such a commitment and we're in love."
"Plus she might be pregnant," Lex said, his mouth filled with food.
The entire table grew suddenly quiet.
"I thought we weren't going to discuss that," Asia hissed at him. "I thought we agreed we wouldn't say anything about that until we were sure."
"You were naming reasons why we should get married," Lex told her, still eating. "They wouldn't let us get married just because of that."
"It's better then saying 'Well I knocked her up, so we have to get married or else the kid will be a bastard and you don't want that now do we.'"
"Why are you being so bitchy?"
"I'll show you bitchy," Asia said, standing. "You can rot in hell for all I care Lex Ford! I never want to see you again!"
She stormed out of the restaurant, not even glancing back at him.
"Don't marry her," his father said, watching her walk away. "She's too much like your mother."
"Men," Marcella said in disgust, standing and leaving also.
Without a word, Catherine also left the table.
"I might as well go and fix this," Alexis said, standing. "You're all deep in trouble."
She then walked out, going the same was as the other women.
"More food for us," Lex said, shrugging.
The two elder men looked at each other and shook their heads.
********************** The house ************************
"You tell him one thing and he does another," Asia said, shaking her head. "I just don't get why he had to do that."
"You know men," Devin said, rolling her eyes. "The only person they make sense to is themselves."
"Which is exactly why we should just go out and for get them," Adrienne said.
They were all on the phone. Asia had called them after leaving the restaurant.
"I don't know," Devin said.
"We haven't gone in forever," Adrienne said, sounding slightly annoyed. "Let's just go out and have fun. We need to have a good time."
"She's right," Asia said, hoping to convince Devin. "It's been forever and I wanna go out and forget about that bastard."
"Fine," Devin sighed. "But, we can't stay out too late."
"Fine, mother," Adrienne said. "Look, I gotta go. Board meeting in 10 minutes."
"Me too," Devin said. "I have to fix Lunch."
"Bye," we all said and hung up.
Asia was just about to go upstairs and take a nap, when the doorbell rang. I opened the door to see Alexis standing there.
"I wanna talk to you about earlier," she said. "Can I come in?"
"Sure," I said, opening the door to let her in.
"I wanna apologise about Lex," she said, shaking her head. "He's not bright at times. He speaks before he thinks. He's been like that since we were little. He's gotten better, but he slips sometimes."
"Are you trying to get me to forgive him?" Asia asked, leading the way to the kitchen.
"Is it working?" she asked, siting at the table.
Asia sighed before she answered her. "I love him and everything, but I don't think I can forgive him yet. I know he didn't mean to do that, but I still don't appreciate his behavior. Once I think things out, I'll probably be able to forgive him, but I just can't right now."
"I understand," Alexis said.
As she stood to leave, Asia said, "You wanna go out tonight? Just because I hate your brother doesn't mean we have to be on bad terms."
"Okay. What time?"
"Around 11 most likely."
"I'll be there." And, in the blink of an eye, she was gone.
"Now," Asia said to herself. "I think it's time for a nap."
